DEA: "Plea of Chino Antrax Cripples Violent Arm of Sinaloa Cartel", View Plea Agreement

Plea Agreement:


DEA Press Release

Jose Rodrigo Arechiga-Gamboa, also known as “Chino Antrax,” pleaded guilty in federal court
today.  Chino Antrax admitted that as a high-level member of the Mexico-based Sinaloa Cartel he and his co-conspirators coordinated the transportation of tons of cocaine and marijuana into the United States and ordered or participated in cartel-related violence.

In his plea agreement, Arechiga-Gamboa admitted that the Sinaloa Cartel uses violence and threats to intimidate rival cartels, and that he himself was “a direct participant in, and communicated to other members of the Sinaloa Cartel, orders to commit acts of violence or threats of violence.”  The Sinaloa Cartel operates across multiple continents and countries, importing large quantities of narcotics into Mexico from Asia and Central and South American countries including Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela, Peru, Panama, Costa Rica, Honduras and Guatemala.


The Sinaloa Cartel moves drugs by land, air, and sea, including cargo aircraft, private aircraft, submarines and other submersible and semi-submersible vessels, container ships, supply vessels, go-fast boats, fishing vessels, buses, rail cars, tractor trailers, trucks, automobiles, and private and commercial interstate and foreign carriers.  Those narcotics are then smuggled across the international border to San Diego via automobiles, tractor trailers, trucks, fishing vessels and tunnels and stored at various stash houses, safe houses and warehouses in San Diego County. The narcotics are transported and distributed from there to locations throughout the United States.


“This plea today marks the end of a reign of terror that this particular violent enforcement arm of the Sinaloa Cartel has inflicted on innocent people both in Mexico and the United States,” says DEA San Diego Special Agent in Charge William R. Sherman.  “Jose Rodrigo Arechiga-Gamboa, aka: Chino Antrax was the head of this violent group under the powerful Sinaloa Cartel.  Once again, DEA commits to hunting down the remaining members of this weakening cartel and making sure the public is safe from any more drug related violence.”

Arechiga-Gamboa’s arrest and guilty plea come in spite of significant efforts by him to elude capture. 

Arechiga-Gamboa was arrested on December 30, 2013, at the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, Netherlands at the request of the United States.  Arechiga-Gamboa was taken into custody at the airport traveling under a fraudulent name, “Norberto Sicairos-Garcia,” as he deplaned a KLM flight from Mexico City, Mexico to Amsterdam.  The United States made formal requests for assistance from foreign authorities via a provisional arrest warrant and an Interpol Red Notice.

A Dutch Court considered the extradition request and, on May 28, 2014, ordered that Arechiga-Gamboa be extradited to the United States to stand trial on the narcotics trafficking offenses.  Arechiga-Gamboa was extradited to the United States on July 11, 2014 and arrived at San Diego International airport under heavy security.


The investigation and prosecution of Arechiga-Gamboa was conducted by agents with the Drug Enforcement Administration in San Diego, along with federal law enforcement from numerous other agencies. It was also conducted in close coordination with DEA agents in Chicago and the United States Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois, along with Customs and Border Protection Office of Field Operations, Customs and Border Protection Office of Border Patrol, Internal Revenue Service, Department of Treasury, Office of Foreign Asset Control, Department of Justice, Office of International Affairs, and Interpol.

  3. Man I remember a couple of years ago I saw him at plaza Mexico I didn't really know who he was at the time but just by the way he carried himself and the way he walked you knew he was something of a big shot. I guess you really never know who someone truly is, but life goes on.

    4. They did bad things and then they decide to betray their old morals/friends and family and go against them all just to get let off. Most of them don't feel sorry for what they did or anything like that.

    6. @10:24 no the one in Lynwood. I didn't know it was him at the time like I stated above but I remebered his face. I knew he was a drug dealer just by the way he dressed, he didn't dress all chunti and everything like most kids do these days but you can always tell when someone is in the game. I remember him clearly because he was with these two other guys and one really pretty tall girl with light skin and really black hair. One of the guys was chunky and he kept on laughing super loud, but he had that one laugh that makes you laugh so I kept on turning around. He was always smiling but he looked uncomfortable I never really forgot about that little group of people. I have always listened to his corridos but I never put a face to them until recently that he got captured and I saw the first pics of the famous Chino and I recognized his face from plaza Mexico

    1. It'll happen. Mayo can't be trusted everyone under him is an informant even his flesh and blood are government informants. Same scenario, bad ass gangsters until they are caught. US prisons fear all of them especially when they mention Supermax, you walk in but exit 99.99% of the time in a box. Their fates are sealed.

    2. These aren't your regular street corner drug dealers these are high level Dont get mixed in the general population. Well if your so mad about Mayos organization having rats In it go do something about it.

      Delete
    3. Man this is business as usual for the Snitcholoa. It's like it's understood if you get extradited to the US the narco rules don't apply. CDS has been snitching for a long time so no one will be hit whether it's Mayo or whoever else. Plus Mayo has too much political power for anyone to go after him. Whoever does hit Mayo will have to answer to EPN and the boys.

    2. In the US Fed system the prosecutor will not offer you a deal unless you give up something in return. It doesn't matter what it is as long as it favors the Feds. Typically the defendants in question gives up info on their bosses or info on trafficking routes unknown to the authorities. If Chino receives a sentence of less than 15 years my guess is he gave up everything he knows about the inner workings of the CDS. If he didn't give up any info (highly unlikely) he would probably get 50 years to life.

  18. I highly doubt he snitched serafin took a plea already and hes all that mattered got the ok to take a plea so he did it thats my opinion

  19. @11:11

    So seas pendejo. Taking a plea deal does not mean you snitch. I'm not saying he didn't. I took a plea deal back in 1998, all I plead guilty to was taking part in organize criminal activity, arranging and supervising the transportation of narcotics. Never did it mentioned for who or where, all it had was my confession of guilt and the agreement of my time to serve. I received 144 months. If I had gone to court the prosecutor told my attorney that if I was found guilty my they were going to ask the judge for the mandatory life sentence. With all the evidence stacked against me, my attorney recommended that we plea guilty. Prosecutors give you a lighter sentence if you don't make them work to prove your guilt and reveal their informats.

    1. @ 8:09 Well then he got one of the best plea deals of all-time considering he admitted to being a killer for one of the most ruthless cartels in the world and also admitted to shipping ton level amounts of cocaine and marijuana into the USA.

      Just don't buy the USA government would give someone like Chino Antrax a deal like that if he didn't snitch. This isn't the Flores brothers who didn't like violence, this guy was a known killer.

      Delete
    2. I am not saying he didn't talk, but you act like they had murder charges on him which just isn't true. If this was his first offense in the United States then it is possible he could get a 15 year sentence with a plea, but I kinda remember hearing he was an American gang banger who went to Mexico on the run from American authorities. In which case 15 seems a little light. In most cases the DEA outs their informants by this point. If he doesn't end up testifying soon, I'd assume he kept his mouth shut.

      Delete
    3. 8:09- True. Some pleas are based on admission of guilt. No specifics necessary. Not all. but some.

  20. For all you people who ain't even been in county jail or don't know shit about the system please nigga,since when taking a plea means you snitched? I mean are you serious? You watch too much tv homey,El Chino looks like a real mother fucker to me you feel me? He knew this day would come , to me he is only sayin: yeah bitch I did that gimme my time so I can serve it and that's that. Chino keep your head up man.

    1. He snitched trust me. Facing life at the ADMAX Florence Facility??? The hardest of the hardcore criminals will snitch instead of facing that place. Residing there is worse than the death penalty. Most of the info in his indictment is sealed which also tells me everybody caught in this operation including the Zambadas has snitched not just Chino. If he gets a sentence less than 15 years he definitely without a doubt gave up pertinent info to the US Feds.

      Delete
    2. What's the difference between a real motherfucker and a snitch? I will tell you. A real motherfucker is free as a bird with his guns and his drugs. A snitch is that same "real" motherfucker behind bars facing life in prison. Now you going to tell me he doesn't snitch in that situation? I bet 100% of all defendants facing the same situation would sing like Sammy "the bull" Gravano did. There is nothing anyone on this webpage can tell me to convince me otherwise. Every Mexican cartel boss who has ever been extradited to the US has snitched so why not Chino.

    5. 8:33- So true. Its easy to say that you would never "snitch." However when faced with "life without" in Colorado or another federal supermax, attitudes tend to change and self preservation becomes the theme.

  22. I mean all I'm sayin' is Chino is smart and didn't have much choice,I think I remember the last article saying they even had sum wiretaping on him and witnesses and stuff so at the end of the day they (feds) were like yo if u don't take this you could get this you feel me? Is my opinion they already had so much on El Chino that there was nothing close to snitching and like I said b4 I don't think Chino is the kind of sicario that would do that.

    1. The reality is that Chino is a nobody. He is just a hitman who had the ability to supervise drug loads. The US could give two shits about Chino. The Feds want the big fish and how else will they get the bigger fish without the cooperation of their subordinates. This operation is way bigger than Chino so you have ro look at the bigger picture and that is to dismantle the CDS hierarchy. Chino is just being used for a greater purpose. Just another piece to complete the puzzle.

  28. Is it snitching if the feds already know everything

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The Feds use the snitch to confirm the information they already have and then the snitch makes a statement on the information. Depending on the situation the info will either strengthen the case on another defendant or secure an indictment for new defendants.

      Delete
  29. Did he rat lol. No my dumb friend. This may mean that the defendant will plead guilty to a less serious charge, or to one of several charges, in return for the dismissal of other charges; or it may mean that the defendant will plead guilty to the original criminal charge in return for a more lenient sentence

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm sure there's probably more, but reading the article if that is really his plea, I mean c'mon...that's common knowledge that that's what the Sinaloa Cartel does. Unless he actually snitched on people (which he could be doing) I'd say that was a pretty good move taking that plea. Not all plea deals mean you're a snitch.

  31. Prison anyways but just don't be a snitch in prison cause u will get dealt with ptb style houstone

  32. Y’all stupid he didnt snitch! Can’t yall read?? He got what he got because he admitted his role. And plus they are making him pay 1,000,000 I think that paid for his plea, plus whatver else he probably had his lawyer pay on the down low. Chino is the Fucking man. U know in the feds they ask u to bring ur paper work to see if ur a snitch and this is the paper work they want to see.. the only cooperation he did was admitting his role.. he probably has a lot more money saved for when he gets out. He probably out already.. they was going to request he be given he low end of a 10-life.. one time for Chino!
