Two
new recordings of Rodrigo Vallejo aka ‘ El Gerber” and Servando Gomez Martinez
“La Tuta” were made known in a report that was presented Tuesday Morning in
Primero Noticias. (video footage is combines in one video at bottom of this post)
One of the videos has
footage of Vallejo, the son of the .former Governor from Michoacán, Fausto
Vallejo Mora, skipping protocol while strolling into the Public security
secretary (SSP) detainment section. He
shows no ID, is not stopped, and does not sign in as he walks to a cell to
visit a man wearing a black jacket.
The second video shows
yet another TutaVision meeting between Vallejo and La Tuta, where decisions and
political issues are discussed that would affect the future of Michoacan.
In the video, there is
discussion of Ascension “Chon” Orihuela Barcenas, now a candidate for the
governorship of Michoacán.
Vallejo expresses his detestation
against Chon, and is concerned about the possibility that when his father would
leave the governor’s position and Chon would fill the position. At the time of
the video the governor was very ill and in need of a liver transplant.
Vallejo blamed Chon as
being the person responsible, “for making all this mess”.
The video begins with
Vallejo asking for a little more (whisky?) in his glass, Tuta responds by
saying the glass is full.
Vallejo starts speaking
about Chon, asking Tuta who is behind the decisions about Chon.
He continues, saying
that he has direct orders from “the party” (PRI) that “if they kill a deputy”
Chon is the replacement, in other words he is the replacement for any vacant
position that would arise. “If my father leaves then he would replace him.”
