Sinaloa: Famous for Beauty Queens

Translated by Yaqui for Borderland Beat from Debate

When a Beauty Queen Becomes a Narco Queen
July 7, 2017

Exposed for their beauty or excited by the thought of a life of luxuries and eccentricities, the participants in beauty contests are seen by the world of drug trafficking as easy prey, and are often seen by criminals as trophies who then among themselves become delinquent.

This is when the beauty of women and organized crime set aside the line that divides them and decide to join, here is one of many cases.




Miss Sinaloa 2012: Maria Susana Flores Gamuz
Sinaloa woman María Susana Flores Gámez, Sinaloa Woman 2012, met a final tragic end and died at age 22 as if she were a hit man during a clash between Sinaloa Cartel members that she was traveling with and Mexican soldiers. She had a  gun in her hands, according to a former official of the Attorney General's Office, it was reported that the alleged narco-traffickers took refuge behind Flores Gámez, as if she was being used as a human shield. She got out of the vehicle in the midst of the shootout near her hometown of Guamuchil in November 2012.

A Narco Queen Buried in her Winning Evening Gown
Flores Gámez was buried in the gala dress with which she received her crown as Mujer Sinaloa 2012, in addition to her crown and her scepter. 

Miss Sinaloa 2008 Laura Zuniga: Mexican  Representative for Miss International 
The list does not end because years later appeared a beautiful girl named Laura Elena Zuñiga, who won for her beauty the title of Miss Sinaloa 2008.

Nuestra Belleza Sinaloa 2008 was arrested in Zapopan along with Ángel García Urquiza, one of the alleged leaders of the Juárez cartel. Laura Zúñiga was to represent Mexico in Miss International.

The arrest took place in a blockade that the Army and the State Police jointly mounted in streets of the  Colonia Residencial Poniente, after receiving an anonymous complaint that alerted the presence of alleged members of the Juárez cartel in the municipality of Zapopan . Five firearms and a large amount of dollars were secured in the operation. 


The detainees were secured with two AR-15 rifles, three pistols, 633 cartridges of various calibers, 16 cell phones and almost $ 100,000 in cash. Several more criminals were arrested not seen here in this photo.


According to authorities, at the time of her arrest, Laura Elena Zuniga Huizar said she and her companions planned to go shopping in Bolivia and Colombia. In Sinaloa, her father told them that the models had traveled to Guadalajara to an inn.

In subsequent statements, Laura Elena said that she was unaware of the criminal activities of her boyfriend, the brother of "El Doctor", Ricardo Garcia Urquiza, former leader of the Juarez Cartel who had been apprehended in 2005 by the PGR. He had replaced Rodolfo Carillo Fuentes who was executed by an  armed commando in Culiacan, Sinaloa.  Laura Elena claimed to  have been kidnapped and now only prays for her safety.

  2. It's safe to say that these pageants are probably sponsored by narcos and rigged so their girlfriends will win. Easy way to launder money and keep a hottie at your side. Although some of the women seem average!

    2. Why'scandalous'? A woman participating in a beauty pageant pretty blatantly confesses to her liking of the flashy side of life.

      You find it equally scandalous that fat, violent and ugly criminals feel attracted to the beauty pageant type of woman?

      I would call both types of character pathetic and say they deserve each other.

  5. Interesting article about how money and beauty are without a doubt attracted to 1 another!The narcos only want beautiful girls and the beautiful girls only money but look at the consequences of that for the girls.A subject that's rarely talked about.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Chapos wife too was a beauty queen from Canelas DGO but Sra Coronel was already from a family of narcos and the daughter of Ines Coronel.

    The other side of this artical is there are many beauty queens that do not want anything to do with narcos but against their will become victim. For example Rocio del Carmen Lizarraga was taken beyond her wishes by Francisco Arellano even though she was engaged to marry a man. Rocio is the daughter of good Católicas who raised her correctly and everyone became very distressed when Francisco took Rocio and now that Francisco is dead she is ashamed to come home even though she is loved still by all who knew her. There have been many good girls who recieve threats and been victims of narcos like another friend and her family who was harased by Manuel Salcido Uzeta for many years until his death.

    It should be said in fairness that many beautiful girls de Sinaloa make great effort to stay away from attention of narcos because they do not wish for that life and they are girls of good values.

    2. Sorry to say but majority of the women I have met and known only pursue those with money and power.
      This conception is a beneficial factor for one another. Not many hold such principles true of heart and of sincerity. Those that do are a treasure indeed.
      Sad to say but those with curves and booty know what they can get. Why settle for less!

      I can respect your opinion and comments from many here. But please note I am not a sexist. I appreciate a woman's intellectual mind and opinions. Furthermore, find it appealing that a woman can achieve any goal in life and do so without anyone hindering such.
      As for my life being sad ? On the contrary I am blessed with a beautiful educated woman for over 19 years. Always supporting to a continuous career in life along with my children.
      Just expressing experiences of what many look for. A daddy sugar or sugar mamma.
      Nevertheless, there are good women out there with no ill intentions nor interests. However, in the game narco trafficking many are there for the ride filled with bling and benefits. A total turn off for me.
      I am a building engineer and owners for my own business; wife a nurse at a prestigious hospital.
      So life is not sad but we'll secured and structured.
      Again my apologies for those having been offended. I am man enough to step up and ration with my opinions.
      Thank you enjoy the day.

    10. If you have been around the block a few times you know which women to stir clear of. I don't believe E42 is being sexist because if he too has been around then he knows also. Unfortunately it's a taught trait within certain groups. You have gold diggers from all races, creeds and ethnic backgrounds. When you are dealing with Sinaloa beauty queens you already know the deal.

Having witnessed their significant other. Believe me they are in it for the money not love. Just an observation.

    2. I Won't say Mazatlan lacks of Beautiful Girls, But Puerto Vallarta would be the less place in jalisco to look for their beautiful girls. You need to go to Los Altos de Jalisco (San Miguel de el Alto, San Julian, Jalostotitlan, just to mention a couple)
      I would say Most of the northern states in Mexico have the best looking girls. But Jalisco Girls Is upthere on the Top 3.
      IMO

  8. Having read this article its foolish to think that these beauty queens had no knowledge of their associates and associations.
    The conception of the majority of all beauty queens and contestants have aspirations of getting noticed and attention from those wealthy and prosperous.
    An unfortunate consequence for many. A fantasy of false perception and fairytale which many are obscured from fact and that of fiction.
    Many parents wish their daughters to marry into money. So life is not hard and comforting. Regardless of what one is engaged in. Especially in Mexico. A custom and tradition which continues to this day.
    Please note; this practice and behavior is evident among the majority percentage.

  9. Everyone in Sinaloa knows someone involved in drug trade. Especially the gold digging beauty queens. That is what the whole state has to offer drugs and beauty queens. Just ask why Zambada or Chaputos kids are guarded by dozens of bodyguards yet both the Mexican and American authorities do not "know" where they are HIDING and can't ever seem to capture them and you'll realize that the whole damn state of Sinaloa is behind CDS in complicity and yes even U.S. authorities.

    1. @1256pm...my friend you are a genius. Is not rocket science that sinaloa the whole state from the narco calling the plays to the street vendors enjoying the profits and capital created by the drug game. Every one knows that it takes a village to raise a successful narco. The million dollar question is how do you break such a drug monopoly when society is contaminated by corruption? I think that legalization of drugs for addicts and the deliverate use of the death penalty is the medication used for corruption aka politician's dirty cops bankers and anyone caught up on corruption. together are a great way to fix social issues in a couple of generations. Drug used is cause by social problems aka unemployment divorce extra income culture and so on..

    2. Wrong life is more complex than just they do this they do that... you my friend key board warrior probably don't step in to Mexico unlike myself...... in reality only about ten percent of the population if not less are involved in the drug trade only a fraction of the population.... to say that every one knows the game or a drug vendor smuggler pusher does not make every one corrupt or an accomplice,,,,... if you rat or snitch and they find out it was you.,,, good luck staying alive... so you when in Mexico travel from point A to point B and mind your buisness, follow your path and don't look side to side and never stare at single men..... that would be like calling them out for a fight or asking for trouble..... don't stare,, mind your buisness,, and keep walking... and you will fair better in Mexico...... my two pesos

    4. 5:51 is right. If you don't hang in that circle you don't know narcos. Sure most people might know or suspect they know someone involved in the biz, but ppl don't advertise it in Sinaloa..how do i know b/c I live there every Jan thru May and have a biz there (NOT NARCOTICS RELATED). My wife exports fruit and vegetables from Sinaloa and the Tomato, Mango, Atun, Coffey, Sugar, boat construction, mining and many other industries are huge in Sinaloa. To conclude, the comment "that is what the whole state has to offer drugs and beauty queens" is stupid and not based in reality.

    5. Silence is complicity! Doing business with drug dealers money laundering cover businesses even more complicit. Beauty queens specially know who is who in the business. Emma Coronel a beauty queen herself knew exactly who Chapo was. She is not stupid. Of course not 100 percent of people are involved in drugs but even their proximity to these dealers and their blind eye towards what they do makes more than ten percent of the people in Sinaloa responsible for the Narco Culture (it even has a name), within that state!

      Delete
    6. "People suspect" in Sinaloa who is a narco is bullshit! People know very well that a person who has no job yet flashes money and drives around in different vehicles and talks a certain way are narcos. I'm from Juarez and I, have seen some of this first hand. If you don't know for sure someone close to you or them know, like the people owners of the bars or places the narcos frequent. You don't have to snoop around these conversations slash revelations just pop up sometimes although it can be dangerous only if you ask questions then and or talk about them later. If you just hear you are alright.
      If you know and you do business whether it's legit onnyour behalf you are complicit yourself. This is what Sinaloans do on a daiky basis just like many in Juarez. Beauty queens like Emma Coronel cannot say she did not know who Chapo was. She is not the only one.

  18. So, nice that BB posted something to titillate it's viewers. Shots of women in bikinis; discussion of where in México the hottest women are. Meanwhile, today I saw two funerals in Taxco, Guerrero. Young men, wives, and children who were slaughtered in these narco wars. There will be nothing in the news. And the mere reporting of these events does not illustrate the devastation of the people left behind, as I watch them follow the funereal car with its cargo of sadness.
