Family of Rafael Caro Quintero Claims that Arrested 'Brother' Carlos Caro Quintero is Not Related to Them

 "Socalj" for Borderland Beat


Jorge Morales, Director of 60 Segundos, said during an interview with journalist Ciro Gomez Leyva, that the family of drug trafficker Rafael Caro Quintero claims to have no relationship with Carlos Caro Quintero, who was recently arrested following a traffic stop for carrying 8 kilos of marijuana, small amounts of cocaine, and a firearm.

"They tell us that this person, Carlos Caro Quintero, is not related to them," Morales specified. "Nobody knows him, [members of] the family rule out that there is a Carlos Caro Quintero [among the relatives of Rafael Caro Quintero]," he added.

According to official reports, Carlos is originally from Badiraguato, Sinaloa, the same as Rafael Caro Quintero, and is "a member of a criminal group that operates in the north of the country," stated Secretary Omar García Harfuch. Carlos has a criminal record in Jalisco in 2019 and Durango in 2022 for carrying a firearm and for creating a scandal on public roads, or disorderly conduct, respectively. His recent arrest did not come from the result of an ongoing investigation into the man, but due to a search after being stopped for not displaying license plates on his Mercedes Benz SUV.

However, Omar García Harfuch assured that they have not yet been able to confirm the relationship of the detained subject with drug trafficker Rafael Caro Quintero. Relatives and people close to Rafael Caro Quintero are denying that Carlos Caro Quintero is his brother let alone a member of their family tree.

“We have not confirmed it since yesterday when we reported it, we only mentioned the full name of the person, the license with which he identifies himself, who also happens to be from Badiraguato, Sinaloa. In the first interview that he does when he tries to intimidate his colleagues, he mentions the relationship, but the authority does not mention it,” stated Secretary Omar García Harfuch.

Emilio Caro Payán and Hermelinda Quintero are the parents of Rafael, it is believed that they had a total of 12 children. The known brothers of Rafael who are involved in drug trafficking are Genaro, Jorge Luis, Miguel Ángel, and Héctor, who was killed years ago. 

His transfer to a prison in Mexico City was an extensive security operation with an armored vehicle guarded by agents of the SSC Task Force special group. 

Transferred to Prison Under Heavy Security

After his capture by a special group of the Secretariat for Citizen Security (SSC), he was transferred to the FGJ Relevant Affairs Prosecutor's Office on Avenida Jardín, Azcapotzalco mayor's office. The office was protected by the National Guard and SSC. He was then transferred to a prison in Mexico City in an armored convoy. 



The high level of alertness surrounding Carlos and his transport to prison fits with the government's belief that he is in fact related to the recently arrested Rafael Caro Quintero who is currently fighting extradition to the US.

  2. How hard is it to get information from his INE? When you get an INE ID you have to present a birth certificate and that info is placed into the INE database. When I got my INE they asked me for the names of my parents, two witnesses, a light/water bill. And they type in the response you give them regarding your parents. So I would like to assume that information is readily available. Also, I dont see these journalists having a difficult time getting the information from la USE(where you get your license and marriage certificates). Also when you get pulled over by Guardia Nacional they sometimes ask the names of you parents, im assuming because they have access to that info.

  4. Blood shot eyes, hungover, with an expression on his face like he gave up on life long ago, just waiting for the next borrachera. He's not a meth user but he'll hit the pooks now and then "pa andar bien chingon".

  10. I knew my dads cousins when I was a kid, I never seen this guy. Granted I’ve been out of Sinaloa for years, my dad always was close to his family and spoke about them, visited when he could. The Mexican soldiers beat my uncle up real bad after that bullshit in Bufalo Chihuahua, he wasn’t even involved but the surname was enough for them. This guys is using are families name for his own agenda.
