Sinaloa: arrests made in the Australian surfer murders

Take it or leave it, authorities have solved the crime, and arrested the suspects, the same authorities who previously claimed the bodies sustained no gunshots...here is what they now claim ......LR

Three suspects ( Julio Cesar Gonzalez Muniz, Martin Rogelio Muniz Ponce and Sergio Simon Benitez Gonzalez) have been detained in connection with the presumed killing of two Australian tourists who went missing last month, prosecutors in Mexico's Sinaloa state said Friday.

State prosecutor Marco Antonio Higuera said the three men were robbing motorists on a stretch of highway leading south through Navolato, Sinaloa. He said two other suspected members of the robbery gang remained at large.

The three were arrested on low-level drug-dealing and weapons charges, but Higuera said he expects homicide charges to be filed against them soon.

"This is just a gang of five people who committed highway robberies. They don't have links to drug cartels," Higuera said.

One of them had previously been investigated for the killing of a man in a similar robbery, prosecutors said.

The gang is alleged to have killed Adam Coleman and Dean Lucas after Coleman resisted the robbery just after midnight Nov. 21. The thieves allegedly shot the two Australians to death, then doused their van with gasoline and set it afire.

Two charred bodies found inside the van the next day have not yet been positively identified. Tests are continuing. But the van's vehicle identification number matched one registered to Coleman in Canada.

Evidence presented at a news conference showed the arrested men had rifles, a shotgun, pistols, 124 small bags of methamphetamine and jackets with police logos on them. It was unclear whether they were wearing the police jackets at the time they allegedly stopped the van.

According to prosecutors, a lookout for the gang spotted the van before it got to Navolato and advised his accomplices it was a likely target.

The thieves apparently stopped the van after it passed a toll booth, as the two Australians drove south through Sinaloa toward Guadalajara, Mexico's second largest city.

Prosecutors said the thieves, traveling in an SUV, forced the van to stop. Coleman purportedly struggled with the thieves, and one of them shot Coleman, but he didn't die immediately. The van was then driven to a rural road, where both victims were apparently shot to death and one member of the gang lit the van on fire.


Coleman and Lucas were traveling to Guadalajara from Edmonton, Alberta, and failed to arrive as planned on Nov. 21. The two surfers got off a ferry from the Baja California peninsula at Topolobampo, Sinaloa, at about 10:30 p.m. on Nov. 20. The burned-out van was found the next day.

    2. 6:15 PM, What's wrong with this picture? Everything! Coleman and Lucas were seasoned travelers, they wouldn't have been that foolish in Sinaloa at midnight. This story went large internationally, headlines are why these known criminals have been arrested in an effort to quell the public outrage. Mustn't scare off the tourists, yea?

    3. Terrible thing . That said . "Seasoned travelers that wouldn't be foolish enough to travel at midnight ? Come on now ! Foolish is any vacationer in Mexico . Mexico has a very long history of predators roaming looking for prey . Sure a lot of people come in and out and make it . My take on it is if you travel long enough down the highway in a foreign vehicle you will be spotted because there are people looking for YOU .

    4. 6:15pm; Sinaloa is one of the safest states to drive in at night - especially carretera 15 along the pacific. Yesterday I crossed Laredo at 2:13pm (according to my bridge 2 lane 4 receipt) and hit Durango, DGO at 11:11pm according to my PMex factura and drove through the the mountains (stopped to eat a gordita right across DGO- SIN border around midnight, and arrived Tony's Tacos a las 2am in Mazatlan. Blond headed white skinned guero drove brand new 2016 Tahoe (comfortable ride but I prefer my 2014 Expedition - the new Tahoe feels like a car).

      There's no war going on in Mexico except gangs against gangs. Sorry to spoil the "failed country" view of Mexico; but in Sinaloa its narcotrafficking - just like USA; gangs kill gangs for plaza y piso. No hay sequestadores y extortionistas en Sinaloa - es malo por negocio. Saludos y otra ballena porfa! Sinaloense jahhaaaaaraaaadita guey!

    5. 6:15 & 11:10 - you are talking out your ass with no basis I saying foolish, illogical, etc to travel up or down carretera 15 in a foreign plates car and that there "are people looking for you". Do this; drive carretera 15 from Sonora through Sinaloa to Nayarit and you will see that there are Texas, Arizona, Canadian, and other plates traveling at all hours; and white skinned blond haired people with families or like myself driving alone. I just pulled into Torreon to eat at Denny's (it's 11:34) and I will drive safely to Saltillo or Monterrey in several hours. Do it all the time and have been for decades, drive a new $50k plus vehicle and I have never been accosted, followed, robbed, etc in Mexico. I wish I could say same for Houston and Philly but unfortunately I can't. Point is-don't make these blanket inaccurate statements. Mexico is not at war - that's ridiculous and there are hundreds of young people enjoying themselves in Torreon tonight that I see out the window of Denny's dancing at Boston Grill and other cantinas. Mexican gangs are at war just as the gangs are on some side of every city in America where the gangs are selling their dope, and their buyers are happily giving them reason to. It's simply not fair to imply that driving in Mexico on the busy carreteras is a suicide mission and these totally inaccurate statements only continue to hurt the hard working people trying to make an honest living. The border towns are not an accurate portrayal of most of Mexico's cities and towns.

    8. Chalino, 4:08 - I respectfully but strongly disagree. Many people think Chapo gave el Mochomo to militar but I do not think this is true because Mochomo was smart. I do know with absolute confidence that Arturo's plaza bosses initiate huge business of extortion y many sequestadores once Mochomo was detained and he also have hijo de Chapo killed in busy mercado with grenades and many guns. In all areas around Guasave, Mochis, Guamúchil, Acapulco, y all plazas were Arturo plaza jefe worked they kidnap people who do not wash money, sell drugs, and were regular people. Even for some months in Mazatlan - thank god they were stupid criminals and very fast people of Chapo's son cleaned the problems and it is tranquil to this time. Remember Arturo became friend of Zetas. In 2006 Arturo, Alfredo and maybe 10 men were taking lunch at our club and Arturo alone was very fucked up and act and say many things crazy to workers and members. We left almuerzo without taking lunch because Arturo was crazy. If Chapo take Mochomo it was only that he would not make right Arturo who was not discreet and big criminal more than narcotrafficking.

I wonder how many of the 410 homicides Chicago solved in 2014? I'm sure black young males are real high on their priority list of solving their murders.....but I bet the rate is higher for the white kids with wealthy parents who were on the south side buying their dope. Yeah - American is just so different than Mexico. By different I mean we buy and incentivize the drugs they deliver for us....but crime solving priorities are still reserved for the right color and class.

    1. Topolobampo is the port for Los Mochis. There are always plenty of lodging options there. Given that they were in a van and, presumably camping in it, they could have found tons of places to park overnight. It's unfortunate, but they were advised by a Mexican national (girlfriend of one of the men) to NOT travel at night. Had they stuck to the daytime it's probable that they would've lived to see Guadalajara.

  30. Not all violent acts in Mexico stem from Drug Cartels. There's an even bigger problem that has to do with the shit economy. My brother was deported 3 years, so all my info comes from him, as he is living in Coahuila, a place that has seen its fair of violence and hell. There are more than enough gangsters (from young kids to older men) there just vying for themselves that pledge no allegiance to any cartel. But don't get it twisted, they will kill you and rob you just as quickly. But it's stupid to think that all violence in Mexico is directly because of drug cartels. That's like all violence here in the U.S. is because of bloods and crips. That's just no logic thinking. I went to Mexico bright eyed, almost excited to see the land of drug cartels. Almost as if I was about to see a movie. But the reality is that the extreme lower class in Mexico gets pushed to the point of desperation, and unfortunately many do go out and perform violent acts as a result, just not always in the name of a cartel. To me that's even more frightening. I still love Mexico, and plan on visiting in a week. I recommend any U.S. born citizen of Mexican descent go and visit your family's homeland. Just don't be stupid, and go anywhere alone, talk to too many people you don't know, and if you wish to take a camera, don't take any pictures of any military or police. As my brother will tell you, it's not a good experience to have. The reason I write this is not too detract from the issue of the Australians, I just see many people on many websites and blogs automatically thinking that all violence in Mexico is the cause of all violence. Don't get me wrong, this certain event could be cartel related, but I would hate if all problems in Mexico get conveniently blamed on cartels.

    1. I was thinking the same thing; that cartel members may even be less likely to do something like this because there is very little money to be made in robbing these guys and it only heats up the area. I thought it was probably some low level common thugs as well.

    1. 10:04 -No disrespect but BLO and Carrillo people murdering tourists and allowing them to be found is ridiculous. Sophisticated traffickers BLO and Amado's family (whose 2 sons I met in 2005) are highly intelligent and business men that don't kill for sport or steal from touriststas Think about the trust that must be built with a professional sicario (not talking about Aztecas, droga addicts, etc). Most important too that they don't want heat in their plaza. Some new comers may try to show indifference to killing to their lower ranking halcons and sicarios, and especially competitors; but unless there is a business reason to kill the most successful traffickers will not.

      It's apparent that Zetas thought intimidation by regular and public mutilation was good business as it works for 3rd world warlords and did for ancient superpowers - but these aren't the days of Ghengis Khan and the Zetas neophyte mistake made them a one hit wonder as did the extortion, kidnapping, etc. Unlike Zetas the Golfos, LFM, and eventually CT didn't demand discipline from their plaza bosses, sicarios, and other underlings which led to extorting, kidnapping, robbing etc - and the people won't support this and neither does the Mexican Federal Gob. CDS, the CDG and Juarez of the past - and more than dozen trafficking groups you will never hear about stick to business, implement discipline through their organization, and they understand that ego is biggest reason for downfall and greed is second.

      In Sinaloa we don't have problem with Chapo, Mayo, Azul because they traffick and wash the profits all over state and benefits the people, businesses, politicians, church, etc. Sinaloan cities and towns are safer than most US cities and people in Sinaloa getting killed are in the business and they've not paid piso, stole a load, or most often taking more than they are supposed to. Think about it; your making 200 pesos a day as worker and then you start working in the biz transporting or cleaning money and you can easily steal more in a few months than your papa made in his life....until the day you get caught.

      Last I will say, I guarantee that carretera 15 is safer now than any place in Mexico for both tourists and Mexican nationals! No doubt about this! CDS doesn't tolerate burning Caliente casinos, killing touristas, sequestadores, etc

    2. @5:48 i'll teach you, it is very easy, whenever the .exican politicians get involved in any kind of activity, be it governance, drug trafficking, money laundering, kidnapping, politicking, military, etc etc etc, it all becomes a big motherfacking mess with bad results for all involved and even worse for the non involved...they are the ones guilty of the little narco mini-cartelitos fuck ups...

    3. @1:11- I'm not sure what you have taught - except perhaps not to use drugs.

      I have lived my life in Culiacan or Cosalá for 48 years except 1984-1991 when I attend university in Kansas then Chicago; so allow me to teach you estudiante.
      Mexico does not operate like your nose just as America does not operate in a vacuum. The people, villages, towns, states, politicians, businesses, organized criminal cultures are different from region to region. It is incorrect to think everything you might read about Michoacan or any area of Mexico applies to all of Mexico, just as I know from experience Ottawa Kansas where I studied for 4 years and Chicago where I studied for 3 years are as different as Guadalajara and Monterrey, or Nuevo Laredo and Culiacan.

    4. Maestro, you have studied for too many years, ya ponte a trabajar pinchi huevon...
      --All that schooling is making too many holes in your brain, unless you played the football and got sacked too many times there is no excuse...
      -- the mexican governing narco-mierdocracia follows patterns of corruption exported from the federal level to all over the
      country, that is why with very little differences, the patterns of crime resemble each other on the different areas, that is why javier duarte de ochoa excels at murdering reporters while cesar duarte excels at stealing, trafficking and banking, but the robbing of their state resources follows a federal pattern, and the murdering, and the collective blaming of the narcos, by the governors and the press, and the news blackouts...
      --the geopolitics of crime all over the country of mexico are the fault of the national government, the puppet of the US, and their shit is all over the country, there is no time or patience to be bothering with the little different details like the names or races of their victims anymore, the times or the manner of their deaths or the planned murders of tommorrow it is time to burn down the whole Mexican Government Crime Family tree, and if a famous collidge student started working on it, his collidge would kick his ass out on the street...
      If after living for so long in mexico you don't know it is not about denying the carrillo fuentes climb to power through murdering of pablo acosta and DFS commander rafael aguilar guajardo who replaced him, and it has been getting worse thanks to the mexican DFS and all the different police corporations, all at the beck and call of US puppetmasters as are the other mexican crime families, then what can you learn?

  35. As someone who has traveled through nearly all of Mexico on several long trips by auto, I would never recommend carrying a gun in Mexico. I would as soon be shot by bandits as to be put in jail down there which will surely happen if the the police find as much as one cartridge in your possession.

    2. Spanish tourists got kidnapped and raped in Acapulco a little before ayotzinapa right?
      --Well, in Chile they got kidnapped, raped, tortured and murdered, american french english and Spanish nationals, none of it was good enough to prosecute because england has come to reconcile such matters of state, with leadership and governance, and a show of patriotism by military golpistas who had the courage and decision to carry out their heroic shenanigans, the British and the extreme american right have elevated hitler's practice to the practice of sainthood, I line with their very own "Capitalist Jesus"

    3. I agree.I knew a tourist in La Paz who lost his expensive boat that way.The Mexican military had possession of it and they wanted $40,000 to release it.He refuses to pay the bribe and the lawyer seems to be bleeding him so 4 years later boat is deteriorating and motorbike is no longer on it.Besides a gun wouldn't have done anything especially Harry.He had a military escort.What was he going to do?Shoot all 20 guys before they got to him.If these 2 guys were pulled over in police uniforms that's the last thing you would want to show a cop down there.Again there was 6 of the bad guys versus 2 of them and the bad guys would have bigger guns.

    4. @ 1:20. In regards to the spanish tourist rape case in Acapulco: Word had it on the street that the girls from Spain did not want to pay their drug debt. Also from what I heard is that she refused the medical exam to confirm that she was raped.

  36. MrProGun : learn to proofread before you shoot.

    Scott: Right On,
    it's a crying shame they dont do more about crimes on innocent , good Mexicanos. Mexico is a fabulous rich country full of good people , we just get to read about the shitheads. Too many bad guys and dolls on bad hard drugs , more petty crime even if it is not directly cartel related. Looks to me like the good old fashioned bandito robbing obvious targets. Sure , the cops could be hanging it on these guys , but they don't look like real good guys either. Probably never know the whole truth. I read a Mexican police / detective novel in Spanish three times before I could figure out the point. THAT was the point , get it ? No one can ever figure out Mexican police / detective story because they never square .

  37. Hey Scott,
    Just read about a dude that got caught ripping off 15kilos of frozen chicken legs out the back door of some little tiendita in Mulege, BCS. Employees caught him , he tried to flee but they tackled him and got him arrested. Way to go ! No guns involved. Someone will say he had to feed the cartel. Jest sayin'........

  38. I have traveled to Mexico for 40 yrs. Driving . Yeah , things are worse. Interaction with Mexican authorities , incl Border Crossings :25% bad, 75% good to Excellent. Helpful even . I have found it useful to know Spanish , the more the better, but most folks are friendly and helpful if you try and are friendly too. Lots of ugly American sitings , argueing in English over the price of beer , as if it matters. Making friends in Mexico means everything. Be polite , respectful and friendly. Do not be stupid, arrogant, and drunk in public or travel at night . I have LOTS of stories, the good ,the bad and the ugly. Use common sense and stay alert. We are the guests, show RESPETO.

  39. Clearly the word came down from the government to the cartels to find who was responsible, or else. These group of drugged up nitwits were rounded up and handed over so that business would continue unabated. It's a shame that normal crimes of violence. In Mexico aren't solved as quickly.

    1. 6:33pm - I agree. Our biggest drug problem with the kids used to be blue but it seems that around 2005 meth was being smoked by street people and so many girls in sex trade. It seems to be this way in even most conservative cities like Leon,Guanajuato, and even some of the little villages in la Sierra where people know each other and don't do more than mota.
