Javier Duarte nominated for Guinness record


Posted by DD from material at Mexico News Daily  and Vercruzanos Info and a file on Duarte I have compiled over a couple of years.

By DD for Borderland Beat

I am number one

Breaking Guinness records is a popular sport among many Mexicans but the latest bid is a little different: former Veracruz governor Javier Duarte has been nominated as the most corrupt person in the world along with the former President of Zaire, Mobutu Sese Seko.

Ernesto Villanueva, a researcher at the National Anti-corruption Organization, proposed the nomination, comparing Duarte’s corruption to that of the former leaders of Zaire and Senegal.

“I say this seriously, it’s no joke. Fugitive  Javier Duarte has been proposed . . . as the most corrupt person in the world,” he told a press conference.


Villanueva believes Duarte’s win is all but certain to win the disgraceful first place  due to his having left the state of Veracruz on the brink of bankruptcy and seemingly literally sneaked out of the state and gone into hiding. 


Duarte is currently being sought by the Mexican authorities for illegal enrichment and organized crime. The state’s debt increased by almost 1.5 billion pesos during his term as governor between 2010 and 2016.  Efforts to find Duarte have been concentrated on Mexico but authorities are not discounting the possibility he could be elsewhere in the Americas or in Europe or Africa.

The search in Mexico has been focusing not only on Duarte’s alleged network of phantom companies and prestanombres, or front men, but also on well known business people with whom he could have had dealings,

Besides the dubious companies that existed only on paper, the Veracruz politician’s “money trails” have led the authorities to plantations, transportation companies and real estate in the states of Oaxaca, Chiapas and Tabasco.

The Mexican people will laugh about his nomination as the most corrupt person in the world, but  the most damning evidence  which maybe made him the most hated man in Mexico was the finding that distilled water had been substituted for the chemicals needed for chemotherapy treatment of children with cancer at a children's cancer treatment center.

 

Some Doctors at the clinic said that there were at least 8 documented cases where the children might have survived if that had been treated.  They also said that there was no way to know how many children died at home after receiving "treatment" with distilled water.


Duarte disappeared in October one day after he asked the Legislature for a leave of absence so he could address all the accusations that were being leveled at him.  He has not been seen since that day. 

 

Many citizens are asking how can the Government find and arrest Chapo Guzman after he escaped 3 times from prison yet they cannot find Duarte.  Some are saying it is because the government doesn't want to find him due to his close relationship with President Pena Nieto.  Either because of friendship or Duarte knows too much that could be embarrassing or incriminating to the President. 

President Enrique Peña Nieto had previously praised Duarte an example of the new generation of leaders emerging in the PRI.

PRI has officially expelled him from the party (to try to save face) and the Attorney Generals Office asked Interpol to issue a warrant for his arrest (which they did).   So now there is a world wide hunt for him. 

There are rumors he may have gone on a extended safari in Africa but I have a hard time believing he is hiding in the jungles of Africa.  He and his wife enjoyed the afluent life too much.



But due to a discovery about 10 days ago by the State of Veracruz Attorney Generals Office (under the the new Governor) in the city of Cordova may have clues that could lead to his capture. 

The warehouse is believed to belong to Duarte and among  portrait paintings and photographs of the couple, were wheelchairs, walking aids, stores of food, school supplies and other goods believed to be the property of the state.  There were also at least 10 boxes full of documents and other materials, along with dinnerware sets, paintings and several personal belongings.

Prominent among those documents were about 20 notebooks, diaries and appointment books that presumably belonged to Duarte’s wife, Karime Macías, who has also disappeared.  Seemingly she wanted to chronicle her husbands rise to the top of the most corrupt in Guinness World Records. 

Governor Miguel Ángel Yunes Linares, who succeeded Duarte in December, told a press conference  that the discovery was “very relevant” to the investigation into wrongdoing by his predecessor.

“We’ve found in this place an accumulation of documents that presumably link Mrs. Karime Macías de Duarte directly with planning, preparing and executing actions for the diversion of funds for her personal benefit and that of accomplices.”

In diaries being analyzed by PGE specialists Macías hand wrote detailed information about bank accounts, real estate properties in Mexico and abroad and an extensive list of relatives, government officials, associates and other collaborators with whom she and her husband had illicit dealings.

The handwritten notes even include “addresses and phone numbers of individuals linked with the Duarte-Macías family, along with those people’s homes and apartments located in several places in the world, including a map hand-drawn by Mrs. Karime Macías de Duarte herself,” said Yunes. 

The revealing notes —Macías set for herself the goal to “squeeze” the state family services agency, or DIF, that was under her charge — include a page covered with a single phrase repeated 45 times: “Yes, I deserve abundance.”

Villanueva (who nominated Duarte as the most corrupt person in the world) said Duarte’s behavior is far from being an anomaly: 10 other governors have been investigated for corruption and plundering US $15 billion since 2010.

No major Mexican politician has ever been convicted of corruption.

So far the Guinness World Records organization has made no official announcement about the corruption category, which does not appear on its website. The closest related category is the world’s most corrupt country. Somalia and North Korea shared that honor, winning the title in 2014.

Nonetheless, Villanueva said the official announcement will be made by the end of the month.

  3. Ridiculous-10 Governors up on corruption charges and they didn't steal just a little bit like San Blas Mayor!That money belongs to the MEXICAN PEOPLE!If Duarte is being compared to a couple of African Presidents and he's only a governor makes me wonder about the highest title in the land,you know the 1 in charge of ALL the federal funds not just 1 state because by golly there could be $50 million there not $1 billion for the taking.Just ask yourself,of all the 20 top performing nations in the world [Mexicos in there] why are they the poorest?It shouldn't be in a million years.

    2. That would be a start. Mexicans have been robbed from all levels of government. What's funny is that former presidents reside in America. Why is that so? Maybe because it's safer ? Or is it that they will be victims of the same extortion principles they engaged in?

    7. He deserves his head served on a platter for the people of Mexico to serve as an example for others. But who are we fooling. He's probably holed up with you or under EPN's watch until the end of his term. After that your relative, who knows too much, will be disappeared or so we hope, but not before he writes a memoir confessing his involvement in the morass known as the political swamp that exists in Mexico.

    9. @7:25 San Diego I'm no lawyer but I've been in a little trouble in Mexico. The country follows the Napoleonic code of honor, that is, you are guilty when you are accused of being guilty. Because otherwise, why would they accuse you of being guilty? It's up to you to prove your innocence (and everyone in the whole pinche pueblo knows you're guilty because that's why they accused/arrested you) instead of the prosecutor/government proving your guilt.

      The more provincial areas where the pinchiest pueblos are, like San Tope, Pinchetenango, Nacotitlan, etc. if you're accused of anything serious, you're chingado. They actually lynch people sometimes (states of Hidalgo, Tlaxcala, Puebla are known for this.

      Of course, if you're a narco, then it's all about how much and to whom you pay to have the "charges dropped for lack of evidence" or "improper legal procedures" or endless amparos and delays.

      Chapo's in huge trouble in the US because the state has to prove his guilt for conviction and that's going to be easy. Unsure of his legal strategy of pleading innocent to all the charges, but the chances of him getting let go because of some technicality are exactamente zero. And even if that happened, what would he do, go back to Mexico and run for Presidente? Oh well, uh, yeah, I guess he might

    10. By your own logic, your uncle should have disappeared by opposing the Z, but instead, gathered power on their backs and switched cartels. Meanwhile, the plebians suffered under his power and those who opposed him, including media reporters, found themselves in a shallow grave or worse. There is a special place in hell for Tio, and while on this earth, I hope he suffers like the children whose medication was withheld from. You disgust all except those who profit from the corruption, and truth be told, you have blood on your hands too. Burn in hell.

    11. 2:17-You might be right that we would be disappeared for saying anything in Mexico [abuse of power] but we in the northern countries have free speech and we are saying how we feel.Yes,Pablo also did the odd thing for the poor too but it wasn't from the goodness of his heart,there was ulterior motives and loyalty can be bought where you live.It's not true loyalty because it's fear,it's not from the heart and when does Duarte call upon the poor he's helped to 'return the favour'?

Life is trying to walk straight on both legs everyday and not crawling on our knees. That's the goal for every one when the day begins.

  18. @4:44 AM If Mexico did that watch how fast they'd be invaded. In the year 2000 there were seven countries with independent non globally controlled banks. Afghanistan, Iraq, Sudan, Libya, North Korea, Iran, and Syria. Notice any patterns there? 3 of those countries have been overthrown (Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya) while manufactured civil war rages in two (Syria and Sudan), and the last two on the list are constantly being threatened by war (Iran and North Korea).

    If Mexico nationalized their currency in any way they'd find out who the most powerful cartel, nay entity is in the world.

  20. It used to be that Lopez Portillo was the most corrupt Presidente ever. Miguel De La Madrid gave it his best shot, but Salinas de Gortari broke all previous records by a long shot. Not sure about the ones since then, Zedillo and the PAN guy, but EPN looks like he might end up between Portillo and Salinas somewhere in the Mexican Corruption Hall of Fame...as will Duarte. That guy and his wifey are clearly psychopaths and as bad as the worst of the drug gangs. Pobre de Mexico la verdad

    Did they ever charge anyone in the case of the murder of the PRI candidate Colosio?

    1. @7:37 They not only charged someone (a factory worker in Tijuana), the guy was actually convicted of the murder. The government portrayed him a deranged lone gunman. Probably those Mexican's who are old enough to remember the assassination don't believe the case of a deranged gunman acting alone. Borderland Beat printed a story in 2011 about the ongoing mystery of his murder.

    3. Salinas worked with lopez portillo, when de la madrid got selected, he brought up carlos salinas de gortari, in some position where he could steal, traffic drugs and weapons and makeup the accounting, after that, salinas got elected and has.been the great satan of mexican politics robbing and stealing no matter who is in power, then he gave us epn...
      His daddy raul salinas was for a long time in politics, something that allows him to traffick in televisors, washing machines, refrigerators, and of course, "tombstones"...exact same same as Pablo Escobar, right at the same time, do yo unnerstaan'? Carlos salinas de gortari had a lot of schooling with his daddy, even went to colombia for "horse dressing competitions" when younger, like rafael caro quintero's son who also competed in china's olympics. Salinas also chose to appoint zedillo presidential candidate instead of Arturo Montiel, epn's uncle, and another rata-gobernador like epn...

    4. Manlio fabio beltrones, alias don beltrone, la muñeca or la fabis, was governor of Sonora when salinas murdered Colosio, all the other governors were in a meeting with salinas, not don beltrone, he was called to go to tijuas, and he tortured and murdered the shooter of Colosio and appears to have found another "look alike" patsy who was also tortured into confessing, pretty standard procedure of mexican government justice, "ya te agarré, ya te chingastes"

    1. Don't compare Hitler to these scum, $ hungry Mexican politicians. Hitler did the same to the Jews in his land, as the Americans did to the Indians, and the spaniards did the inhabitants of South America. They were all looking to create a land for their people to prosper in. Not fill their pockets with personal riches while stepping on the necks of their own people. If u wanna compare what's going on in Mexico, try Somalia or Sierra Leon. Or maybe Libya. But even the Libyans had enough and over threw khadaffi. He was the richest man in the world with a full fledged army. The Libyans had enough BALLS to revolt. Take note Mexicans!!!

    2. I had a girlfriend that lived in Libya in the 80's.She said Libyans couldn't own any businesses or land but that Ghaddafi did share some of the oil wealth.People got cheques annually for over $1 thousand dollars which is a lot of money in that country so Ghadaffi was more generous than Mexico's politicians who give almost nothing back [maybe a dud gift card at election time]?
