Assault on Paradise: how "El Mencho" and the CJNG infiltrated Cancun and The Riviera Maya

The New Generation Jalisco Cartel (CJNG) is the fastest growing criminal organization in the country. Like cancer that metastasized in the body, it has expanded everywhere and the jewel of Mexican tourism has not been the exception.

Yes, the Riviera Maya fell under the tentacles of the group dominated by Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes alias "El Mencho".

CJNG's power managed to breakthrough a territory controlled by groups of organized crime like the Gulf Cartel, the Zetas, and the Sinaloa Cartel.

In fact, local cells like the Cancun Cartel, headed by Leticia Rodriguez Lara "Doña Lety", were overthrown by CJNG who expanded its operations from the Caribbean to the Mexican Pacific.
.
According to the Secretary of Federal Public Security (SSP), el "Mencho" and his lieutenants settled in places like Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, and Isla Mujeres since 2016, which was the last year of the Roberto Borge Angulo administration.

Borge Angulo governed Quintana Roo from 2011 to 2016. He is currently being held on charges of organized crime, money laundering, illicit enrichment, and percolation.

CJNG managed to establish its illegal operations that include drug transfer and distribution, kidnapping and extortion.

No one knew how the infiltration of criminals in Quintana Roo without the collaboration of the authorities as possible. Lieutenants like Rigoberto Saldivar aka "La Mocha", Manuel Borbolla "El Rayo" and Oscar Rodriguez "La Rana", have been in charge of paying off state and municipal police to guarantee protection.

Playa del Carmen is one of the cities where violence has spread more rapidly and has recorded massacres in bars due to alleged disputes between drug dealers.

Juan Jose Rivera aka "The Dragon", is the person in charge of the CJNG drug trafficking in clubs and nightclubs.

The violence left its toll on Cancun

Guadalajara, Ciudad de México, Los Cabos, Monterrey, and Puerto Vallarta were the destinations with the greatest increase in the volume of foreign tourists during the first half of 2019.

Guadalajara had the biggest increase, 4.3%; despite the state's high homicide rate. Followed by Ciudad de Mexico, with 4% and Los Cabos with 3.37%. Cancun, on the other hand, is one of the main tourist attractions of the nation, only had an increase in airline passengers of 0.5%.

National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Inegi) announced that Mexico's tourist activity decreased 0.6% in the first trimester of 2019 compared to the same time period of last year due to the fall in domestic tourism and services.

Between January and March, the consumption of both foreign and domestic tourists registered a decrease of 0.4% compared to 2018. The consumption of tourists residing in Mexico fell 2.7%, while foreign spending increased by 9.6% in the same period.

Torruco claimed that the reason for the decline in the tourist activity for the first trimester was amongst other factors, that in 2018 the holiday period of Easter week was included. However, he highlighted an increase in inbound tourism consumption(international).

Torruco claims that they have observed a constant increase in the arrival of foreign travelers in the 6 main airports of the country in which 92.4% of the international tourist arrivals. He mentions that the Sectur has focused on creating strategies based on the positioning achieved and the important tourism potential of the country in the first 6 months of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador reign.

    1. oh thats cute a cheerleader posting a little fire emoji for his baby killer cartel. Did your mommy grow up in Jalisco so you feel the need to jump up and down waving your pom poms for murderers? They would kill your family for nothing back in Jalisco.

    2. 6:05 not if CJNG has anything to say. These guys will protect innocent people from the woman killer cartel.

    3. 6:05 all cartels are baby killers whether directly or indirectly. The cartel kills his father, grandfather, brother or some relative, psychologically and emotionally he'll be stunted for life. If he remains in the area he'll look for vengeance. NO cartel is better than another, they're all POS so stop romanticizing them!

  5. CJNG did not invade Cancun through statistics, but through discontent from esta lished members of the political esta lishme t bitching about their rightful share of the pu lic trough. Cesar "El Capulina" Duarte, Javier "la Marrana" Duarte (under z#1 fidel Herrera Beltran) and Quinta a Roo governor Carlos Joaquin bumped off the governorship by Roberto Borges armed with the most unsophisticated corruption and who still does not know why he got outed and persecuted and is in prison now, the sold out to CJNG and they a worked together until victorious, the rivals they beat to get to power are fighting like bitches for their turf, with their new bosses in power against the newly orphaned with their bosses in prison, with no amnesty in sight.
    It was in Cancun that new Cartel de Juarez Boss and DFS agent Rafael Aguilar Guajardo got murdered leaving the CDJ to Amado Carrillo Fuentes and his fortu e to his fellow DFS COMRADES, ABOUT 100 MILLION DOLLARS, I hope they sent him some flowers for his funeral.
    CANCUN was overrun with crime and pederastas way before Aguilar Guajardo got murdered and before Lydia cacho started reporting on the Demonios del Eden.
    I mean, PLEASE, CJNG was not even an embryo back them. It has been at work under Borges' Nose with now new governor Carlos Joaquin behind CJNG nose, and Jesus Alberto Capella Ibarra whispering on both his ears.
    CJNG seems to be the party of the politicians. In jalisco they are with governor Alfaro too, or were until he got a big head and started throwing shit to his former compas after they put him where he is. After supporting his motherfacking ass since he ran for Guadalajara mayor. Same as garcia cabeza de vacas in Tamaulipas, financed for Reynosa mayor by Osiel Cardenas Guillen...those Maderfacking politicians are really something else.

  6. Mencho is a dead man the CIA and search block are looking for him. All that blood money and he cant even get a good nights rest because he has a $10 million bounty in his head. Sooner or later he will be found and shot in the back like Lazcano. RIP mencho they are coming for you. Your days of extorting and killing innocent people are soon to be over.

  7. It is interesting: more US civilian citizens die in Mexico due to violent acts than in all terrorist acts combined. Yet nobody cares. Why? Because we are brain washed by the hype from mainstream media.
