Tijuana: The Executors

Original article available at ZETA
Translated by El Wachito

To this date, 1071 executions have been reported in Baja California. This sum has already surpassed the executions in 2014, 2015, and its about to surpass the executions of 2016. The Coordination Group has decided to focus their efforts on the capture of the Cell Leaders, who in their insane war, they have dedicated themselves to fight over the small scale drug sale points. The executors are 3 from "Los Aquiles" and 2 from "Los Chompas" of the Sinaloa Cartel; 2 of the "Pilotos" who belong to CAF; and 3 from CJNG. Only 1 has apprehension orders. 

Víctor Hugo Mejía López, "El Griego". René Arzate García, "La Rana" Alfredo Arzate García, “El Aquiles” , "El Mayor".

With 165 murders in Tijuana and 197 murders in Baja California, May was listed as the bloodiest month in the border city. Then in June, with 206 executions across the state, became the most violent state of the country. In that context, during the last six weeks, the State Secretary of Public Security, Daniel de la Rosa Anaya, has repeated in speeches and interviews that the fact that until July 14 there were 1,071 executed in BC and 824 only in Tijuana, Does not mean that there are thousands of assassins. The reality is that they are a few hitman and most of them belong to three cartels.

De la Rosa has made an effort to point out that those responsible are barely a dozen of traffickers and that their hitmen are not many. He speaks about 60 hitman, but only eight account for the majority of the victims.

According to the Coordination Group, a member of the municipal order explained that the hitmen seem numerous because when arrested or killed, they are quickly replace. "For example, we are realizing that the life of a killer is not very long", and depends on the information that they have.

He explained that the sicario - started as a thief and a drug dealer - then he was ordered a series of murders in which the sicario has no idea who the victim is, or their environment, or relationships, or role, who or what criminal group It represents; they are Only given a description and a location of the person to kill. Sometimes they even provide him with a weapon that he has to return.

"For the fourth or sixth homicide the sicario begins to realize what their boss's intentions are with the killings and then they order his death, and they replace him," ZETA informed.


Some of these thugs are "independent" men and women who commit homicides for the highest bidder, today for a cartel and tomorrow for their competitor. In fact, as in previous years, to date it is investigated if there is any criminal who is renting weapons for the various cartels to execute; Including weapons that have been stolen from officers of this and other states.

The Coordination Group has decided to concentrate its search of the perpetrators of the murders. The drug trafficking cell leaders of the Sinaloa cartels, Arellano Felix (CAF) and Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG). Since early June, they have requested collaboration from the federal authorities, who responded negatively, despite the fact that these men are engaged in federal drug trafficking offenses, and as evidence, cargoes of kilograms, liters and / or tons of marijuana, cocaine and heroin have been confiscated.


Juan José Pérez Vargas, “El Piolín”, “R7”, “Jp”. Edgar Alejandro Herrera Pardo, “El Caiman”, “El Zame” Israel Alejandro Vázquez Vázquez, “El 50”, “El Goofy”.
The government forces of President Enrique Peña evaded their responsibility of investigation because the subjects in question do not have arrest warrants, which they lack because the Attorney General's Office does not even investigate them for their drug-trafficking activities.

Thus, since June, the Federal Government has left all the work to the local authorities, the responsibility remains for the operative forces of Baja California, state and municipal police - supported by the Army in the basis of operations - and the challenge is to Surprise the leaders of the criminal groups in flagrancy in order to apprehend them.

Francisco Javier Mendoza Uriarte “El Chapito Uriarte”.José Luis Mendoza Uriarte, “El Guero Chompas”.

The Executors: Ten top priority ...

At this time, the most wanted men are the same subjects that for several years have been identified by the Coordination Group as drug trafficking leaders in Baja California, some of whom have even been arrested and released. These are nine men who have no warrant for arrest, and one more, the only one in which the Federation showed interest because it has an arrest warrant.

According to intelligence reports from the Baja California Coordination Group, most of the security houses of these alleged offenders are in private subdivisions, making it difficult to enter and surprise them in flagrant criminal acts.

    1. Its mainly the new generation of CAF who have decided to align themselves with CJNG. The older memberz prefer to make money instead of fighting over retail corners. What's happening in Tijuana is mainly CDS vs CJNG with some younger CAF members in the mix while the rest of CAF have no real beef with CDS and have respected the truce between the 2 groups

  6. Lots of tuggle war war going on here. I dont know about the rest of the border towns but Tijuana is super populated. I mean its ridiculous the amount of people who live here. So many places to hide and blend in. Not to mention all the gangs from LA and San Diego trying to get a piece of the action. Im surprised we don't have more homicides.

  7. Something is clearly evident for the continuous violence in BC and Tijuana. The release of such individuals and lack of investigations. Despite apprehensions of military issue weapons. No thorough investigation is conducted. Moreover, corruption within municipal officials for releasing such criminals.
    Mexico will continue to face an epidemic of violence if judiciary measures are not applied.
    Referring to the catch and release program like that of fishing restrictions here in the US. A Tougher stance is needed for public safety concerns. Furthermore,tougher sentencing guidelines for those with weapons of military grade. Maybe a law prohibiting weapons for any convicted criminal. With a mandatory minimum sentencing guideline.
    I'm sure there are those who will object to such implementation. As a joke due the availability of guns criminals possess in the US. Nevertheless, something is better than nothing!

    2. Yes I agree but more similar to the US legal debacle than you might realize. I'm a Dallas Public Defender (just say 10+ years) and our system is corrupt too with criminals that can afford the attorneys who contribute to judges election campaigns getting plea bargains and petty slap on the hands, meanwhile the same judges are locking up young men (primarily black and Hispanic) for selling poor quality nickel bags so the judge can look "tough on crime" when he's up for re-election. Like Mexico our system benefits those with money and connections while the kids that never had an opportunity are thrown away like garbage for the political benefit of a few.

      Both US and Mexico are a pay to play Justice kangaroo court.

      You definitely hit it on the button with your analogy of the judiciary system.
      You are correct as to the high percentage of minority's incarcerated in the US. Moreover, where money is a factor for those seeking a slap on the wrist or an acquittal.
      It's a broken system. A policy favoring those with monetary influence. Moreover, the political scheme to continue with the discriminatory practices of an unjust society.
      America holds the world record of incarcerated individuals.

  16. With all that money being made, why do these Cartels bring so much attention with all that violence. I bet if they could keep the violence down, there wouldn't be so much law enforcement on them. I understand if someone robs you or doesn't pay their debt back but some of these killings are senseless. I'm sure they aren't doing themselves any favors this way but what do I know, I live in the States.

    3. Stste Sonsored Terrorism scares people off other alternatives competing with them to govern, heating up the plaza makes you chose other government, makes people run to the waiting arms of worse people, as happened when some of it helped EPN GET ELECTED, and even used FECAL's War on Drugs against fecal with complicity.of the armed forces and police under fecal command. Of course, Carlos salinas de gortari behind the scenes and epn's favourite local.war lords.like.cesar duarte, el bertie boy.moreira, rodrigo medina, salinas luis potosi, fidel herrera beltran (Z1#2) and cesar duarte, MAO osorio chón, and la pantera rosa owner of more than 2000 taps of huachicoleros,
      Pinchi epn was governing all along when fecal was president.
      Then you get the different plaza buyers as when the CDS PAID: "MANELICH CASTILLA CRAVIOTTO EL HOMBRE QUE VENDIÓ SAN LUIS POTOSI AL CDS POR 10 MILLONES DE PESOS".
      he also forced SLP SSPE enrique francisco galindo ceballos to quit, and the story repeated when galindo ceballos resigned again as policia federal chief after TLATLAYA and Craviotto assumed his position, Castilla Craviotto is a member of CARLOS SLIM HELU PLATAFORMA MEXICO, where he appears as owner of all of mexico. there is somebody "government" always behind the terrorist campaigns, it is easy because they can, they own the commanders and the narcos and the plazas, others jus pay their quotas, or don't.

  19. The most tragic thing about all of this is that the people of Mexico are being terrorized by their own. I wish the cartels would just stop the violence. I am sure the US have enough appetite for drugs for the cartels to work together and still make money. I am not supporting drug use but surely its time for you great Nation to be safe and at peace for all of its citizens.

  21. It's a fucking fact which I have no proof of, no citations no quotes, articles in support of, but neither the US Government or Mexican Government want the WOD's won or drugs legalized, because of all the corrupt officials on both sides the border would either have to stop directly stuffing their pockets with cash and start closing down private and government run prisons, lay off 60% of law enforcement, both federal and state including border patrol, as well as local. Start mass closings of drug rehabs and rehabilitation communities, initiate procedures to close 60% or more of the courts and the probation and parole offices and other ancillary offices that deal with all drug offenders. In addition to stopping all armed forces programs involving drug activity.

    Let's face it, I honestly believe that people that wanted to quit using drugs, could still do so via what rehabs or AA/NA the was still available and also with the new drug education and prevention implemented with diverted funds there would be way less users in the future. Plus also I just don't see huge amounts of increases in new user's, if any, running out to start shooting heroin, Meth or cocaine.

    Bottom line to many fat ass lazy fucks would have to go out and get real jobs instead of running around messing with drug users.

    Hey, just my two cents worth. I'll probably get my post deleted, but it really is a discussion that all the countries of both N and S America need to start seriously discussing and making or governments implement, which will be very close to impossible.
