"La Garra", The bloodthirsty CJNG leader that little is reported about

Posted by LeChef for Borderland Beat from La Silla Rota



The Cartel Jalisco New Generation is the youngest transnational criminal organization, but also the most powerful in Mexico and the United States, according to DEA.

Therefore, the leaders of this organization automatically become the “most wanted” criminals. Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes AKA El Mencho, is the supreme leader and therefore the number one public enemy for Mexican and US Authorities.

However, working for him, is a drug trafficker of whom little has been spoken of and who represents a key role in CJNG.

Jose Luis Mendoza Cardenas AKA La Garra appears in "The National Drug Threat Evaluation" of DEA.

The US Authorities place La Garra in the trio of leaders of the CJNG, along with El Mencho and Abigael Gonzalez Valencia AKA El Cuini, detained on March 2, 2015 in Puerto Vallerta.

Unlike Oseguera Cervantes and González Valencia, who has widely investigated, Mendoza Cárdenas seems a drug trafficker working in the shadows. From what little is known about him is that he was arrested in 2008, before CJNG was known as Cartel Jalisco New Generation.

He was arrested on August 1, 2008, along with six subjects, for the atrocious murder of a family in Ciudad Guzmán, on July 25 of that year. The multihomicide shook all of Jalisco. Of the six members of the family who were murdered, three were minors: a 17-year-old boy, as well as two girls of eight and seven years old.

In addition, the property had belonged to Alberto Cárdenas Jiménez, at that time Secretary of Agriculture and Livestock, former governor of Jalisco.

Cárdenas Jiménez had sold the property two months and a half before the crime to the family in his words,  "we were united by an old friendship". He added, in addition, that previously property buyers had been victims of kidnapping years ago so they decided to change their address.

Less than a month after his arrest, on August 30, 2008, "La Garra" was released. This release without apparent explanation occurred during the governorship of the PAN Emilio González Márquez, who was also accused of having released "El Mencho" in August 2012 after having been arrested two hours earlier by elements of the Federal Police.

Less than ten years after his brief arrest, Mendoza Cárdenas is at the top of the criminal world. Everything indicates that "La Garra" is not found in Mexico, but in the US, serving as the main operator of the CJNG in that country.

According to the DEA, the CJNG stronghold in the United States is California, from where Mendoza Cárdenas would operate. The main drug trafficked into the US is methamphetamine, an addictive substance that they became pioneers since they worked with the Sinaloa Cartel under the orders of Ignacio "Nacho" Coronel, murdered in 2010.

Although they also distribute, to a lesser extent, cocaine, heroin and marijuana. The DEA details that the drug comes from Guadalajara, entering the United States through Tijuana, Ciudad Juárez and Nuevo Laredo.

Los Angeles, New York and Atlanta are the main distribution centers of the CJNG. In Mexican territory, according to the Attorney General's Office (PGR), the CJNG operates in eight states of the country: Jalisco, Colima, Michoacán, Guanajuato, Nayarit, Guerrero, Morelos and Veracruz.

Thus, the cartel with the most presence in Mexico, even greater than the Sinaloa Cartel, which has been reduced by criminal coups and currently operates, according to official data, in six of the country's entities.

    2. It’s not that hard to operate when you keep a low profile and don’t harm innocent people. But if you think that they could butcher, behad and bully the American citizens like they do in Mexico you are very mistaken.

      First off, the Usa is not a Narco state and they don’t have half of their law enforcement in cahoots with criminals.

      Second off, the citizens would fight back, and the cartels would have to face angry citizens armed to the teeth and law enforcements.

      Tell the cartels to bully the texas population where many people have this kind of weapons https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rzw8jW0aCys and see what happens.

      You're dumb the guy in the video is a non-Hispanic white guy open carrying an AR if it was black or Latino/Hispanic or any other minority your better believe that it would be a problem because white privilege only applies to WASPS (White Anglo Saxon Protestants). Fuck Texas even upstanding minorities are still seen as second class citizens by non-Hispanic whites from there.

      Delete
    4. @10:20

      Even Hispanics can concealed carry and open carry guns in Texas and in states with lax gun laws, if they are American citizens.

      Anyway, i stand by my point: it’s very easy to be the big bad bully when people around you are disarmed and don’t have the power to fight back. The cartels are a very tiny minority in the Mexican population, if the Mexican population was as armed as the Americans, with their same chances to purchase powerful weapons, the cartels and the corrupt policemen who work for them would have been wiped out.

      The problem is that the good Mexicans are stuck between two evil groups or ruthless psychopaths, the cartels and the policemen working for them, so they are defenseless because they don’t have weapons and they can’t trust anybody, because the police doesn’t protect them.

    2. If any of these lames gets caught here in L.A , they ass gets put to sleep by the big brothers. They get green lighted and dealt with, but dumb mexican narcos make them héroes and even dumber moron cheerleaders write songs and fall in love with them when they are high or drunk. A real shame but real none the less.

    2. In the usa? What happened to la eme or the aryan brotherhood or the bloods and crips and lating kings or the genoveses the gambinos or the chi town outfit? Once any criminal outsider comes in the usa he automatically seases hes power at the border. And hes a target by law enforcement that is effective and by homegrown people looking to steal hes money and hes drug loads.

    3. The first paragraph of this article is a lie. I dont recall DEA saying cjng being the most powerful criminal organization.Last map the goverment put showed Sinaloa had the most influence in the US. Even BLO zetas and even CDG have more power and influence in the US than CJNG

      Delete
    4. 9:45 they hardly know what cjng is up too, up until recently is when all the players in the game are being exposed. Cjng is bigger than zetas, golfos or even Beltranez so you know cjng has more influence than them

  10. so theres 3 guys that the feds point out to be the main guys, Mencho, Cuinis and this guy, So where does Eric el 85 stand in all this? BDN says he turned against mencho but theyre usually full of shit, people in Jalisco say Mencho paid the judges to release him, In my opinion he might be more powerful than Mencho, it seems as Mencho worked for him afterall the reason why Milenio split was because it was Eric who chose Mencho to be in charge and some opposed his decision, so 85 was clearly the shotcaller, I believe once Mencho falls he will take charge yet remain under the radar he will lead silently if he isnt doing so already, he is violent yet hes not like Mencho he might even bring peace might call for peace and agreements with CDS and other cartels

      el 85 has his own faction which is allied with CJNG..its similar to sinaloas macho preito's faction..even though he openly fought with other sinaloa cartel cells he was always linked to the sinaloa cartel..el 85 is no different.. he has his own group that works for him and him only..but they still fall under the CJNG banner even though mencho,cunis,& garra have no say over them..
