脡dgar Valdez Villarreal made a religious promise and never missed mass for three months, without knowing the reasons why
Edgar Valdez Villarreal, alias 'La Barbie' was a drug trafficker who had a dual personality, because while he was a bloodthirsty criminal who had no compassion for his rivals, he had a great devotion to Christianity.
El G眉ero', as Arturo Beltr谩n Leyva called him, had great faith in 'La morenita del Tepeyac', which is why in each of his homes he had an image of her, besides having the habit of making the sign of the cross every morning.
"The personality of 'La Barbie' was dual, along with his criminal life and excesses he was very religious, he was devoted to the Our Lady of Guadalupe, in all his houses there was an image of her and he crossed himself every morning, he was also faithful to St. Jude Thaddeus, he once made a pledge and promised to go to mass for three months, he didn’t miss a single service," reads the book 'Emma and the other women of narco traffickers'.
His love for Catholicism was so great that he even made a vow, in which he promised to go to mass for three months, a period in which he didn’t miss a single church service, however, it isn’t known in exchange for what.
In addition to the Our Lady of Guadalupe, 'La Barbie' also had faith in St. Jude Thaddeus, who has always been very popular among drug traffickers, they even tattoo this religious icon onto themselves , however, it isn’t known if he had this ink on his skin.
La Barbie' prayed to the Our Lady of Guadalupe for Pe帽a Nieto to become president
Anabel Hernandez in her book 'Emma and the other women of narco traffickers' said that Edgar prayed to the Virgin of Guadalupe every night so that the former governor from the State of Mexico would become the head of the Federal Executive.
"In fact, he recalled that 'La Barbie' prayed to the Our Lady of Guadalupe, to whom it was said that he was very devoted, so that Pe帽a Nieto would become president," Anabel Hernandez wrote in her book.
El G眉ero thought that if the PRI candidate won, he would be able to continue operating with total impunity, but he didn’t expect that in 2010 he would be arrested by the authorities after a conflict within the now reborn Beltr谩n Leyva Cartel.
"When Pe帽a Nieto wins, I'm going to be free for another six years,' said the drug trafficker, 'La Barbie' was arrested in 2010, in the midst of the wars within the organization," he said.
Deep Thoughts With A La Plaza Gunman
"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat
A gunman from the La Plaza cartel has released a video online related to an article released two days ago by Borderland Beat.
Within the broadcast two kidnapped females confessed to the alleged illicit affairs committed in and around the city of Guaymas, Sonora.
The anonymous hitman seems to think that a diatribe made against his enemies will convince them to respect their so called rules of engagement with each other.
This message goes out to those faggots from the Los Salazares mob who demonstrated to everyone how despicable they are. After having abducted family members of citizens here in the city of Guaymas. And setting them up to say dumb shit before a camera.
The only thing you’ve done is show us how cowardly you guys really are. You should instead focus on confronting our hitmen for that armed confrontation. Rather than kidnapping women and making them say bullshit. Come out and engage us in an armed attack you cowards. Don’t mess with family members. But if you choose not to hear our warning.
Then it’s best that you also don’t cry foul online whenever we start killing off your own family members. You guys have that habit of starting shit and afterwards crying about the outcome. This is the reason why you guys can’t fit in anywhere. It’s gotten to the point that your own allies are consistently breaking away.
And for the government personnel: don’t bother claiming that we’re killing off family members from the Los Salazares mob. Because they’re the ones who first initiated this conflict. They’ve done this numerous times already. And now you faggots are going to feel what it’s like once the tables are turned.

It was indicated that the three men were released hours after the crime was committed.
Three Guasave City Hall workers were deprived of their freedom by a group of unknown individuals during the early morning hours of Friday, December 8, near the community of Las Culebras, within the municipality of Guasave.
According to unofficial information, the men, who currently work at the municipal palace, were driving along a dirt road leading from the community to Las Glorias beach when they were intercepted and forced to abandon the vehicle in which they were traveling.
The police received the report and initiated a search operation in the nearby area and in different sectors of the municipality; it was around 11:00 when the Investigative Police confirmed that the victims were out of danger.
They were identified as Pedro "N", Geovany "N" and Pedro "N", who were reported safe and sound in their homes.
It was indicated that the deprivation of liberty was committed by a group of heavily armed and hooded individuals on board a pick up truck, so it is presumed that they could be hired killers from a criminal group.

Over 9 tons of cocaine from six separate drug smuggling events were seized last month and offloaded in San Diego on Wednesday, authorities said.
The cocaine has an estimated street value of more than $239 million. It was recovered off the coasts of Mexico, Central America, and South America by two US. Coast Guard ships in November, the USCG said in a press release.
The largest seizure, weighing more than 5,500 pounds, was recovered by Coast Guard Cutter Waesche on Nov. 20. It was found on a narco-submarine.
“Our last interdiction of a semi-submersible vessel was noteworthy since it was the first semi-submersible interdicted in the Eastern Pacific in over three years,” said Captain Robert Mohr, the commanding officer of the Waesche.

![]() |
Kinahan/Super Cartel partner, Balkan mob boss Edin Ga膷anin, is reported to have cut a deal with Dutch prosecutors and has been sentenced to 7 years in prison there. The Bosnian native, described as one of the world’s most prolific drug dealers by US authorities, had been wanted for smuggling 2,400 kilos of cocaine, according to Dutch publication NCR.
He was also fined €1 million as part of his conviction details, which were in an anonymized judgment from a Rotterdam court last month. A spokesperson for the Public Prosecution Service confirmed the conviction while his lawyers did not want to comment when contacted by NCR.
He had been arrested in November 2022 in Dubai after his extradition was requested by the Netherlands. However, he was released some months later when the bid failed with Dubai authorities claiming the Dutch hadn't presented extradition paperwork in time.
Sinaloa Cartel Gunmen Kidnap, Interrogate And Execute 4 CJNG Rivals

The city of Tecate, located in the state of Baja California, is experiencing the horror of the narco-war between criminal groups, as a few days ago the mayor was threatened by banners, and now the barbarity was present in an execution perpetrated by members of the Sinaloa Cartel, who killed four rivals of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
Mexican media such as Punto Norte reported that the four assassins found dead had previously been kidnapped and interrogated, facts that were captured in a video, which circulated on social networks.
According to Radio F贸rmula, Tecate municipal police found a Cadillac Escalade inside which four bodies were piled up, with a crime adjudication message signed by the Sinaloa Cartel on top of them.
The narco-message read a threat directed at anyone who worked with "El Panchito" and "El Trapos," who were linked to the CJNG by public security authorities, reported Punto Norte.
The four men were bound at the wrists and ankles, showed signs of torture such as severe beatings, burns and fractures, as well as marks corresponding to strangulation and no traces of gunshots.
The vehicle in which the bodies were found had overlapping license plates, but upon searching for the serial number it was discovered that it had a theft report issued on September 10, 2023.
Before the bodies of the four men were found, a video circulated showing them in the moments prior to their death, as they were wearing the same clothes in the recording as at the time they were found.
In the images they appear tied up and sitting on the ground. In front of them there are several weapons, as well as blankets with the initials of the CJNG. There is also a woman sitting in the middle of them, while there is another person with his head covered and bare legs in a corner.
Another man, who is not in the frame, interrogates them, asking them who they work for, how much they are paid and what businesses they have extorted in Tecate.
The narco message attributed to the Sinaloa Cartel mentions Francisco Juarez Botello, alias "El Panchito," who had already been arrested in January 2022 and was released in April 2023 thanks to an amparo.
This criminal is in charge of finances and is the right-hand man of Danny Isaac Covarrubias, alias "El Moreno," a lieutenant of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) in Tecate.
