"Changuito Ántrax" ; The embarrassing Son-in-law of the Sinaloa Ministerial Police Deputy Director

Borderland Beat posted by siskiyou_kid from RioDoce

The [big] news wasn't that they had arrested Rafael Félix Núñez, "El Changuito", a low-level gunman who advanced because they had arrested Rodrigo Aréchiga Gamboa, "El Chino Ántrax" but that he was the son-in-law of the Deputy Director of the Ministerial police, Martiniano Vizcarra Burgos. 

Ana Lilia Vizcarra Vega, a daughter from the comandante's first marriage, married "El Changuito" in 2006 and had two children. On September 12, 2014, they obtained a divorce, as documented in a court judgment. 

Some government officials went into a panic when they learned. One of them was the Governor. So he opted to talk to the reporters in twisted words: 

"If you have something to contribute with statements that expressed would be very good to incorporate them into the investigation," said Mario López Valdez to a Ríodoce journalist, to the question of the family relationship between "Changuito Ántrax" and the Deputy Director of the State Ministerial Police. 

López Valdez said to disregard Félix Núñez's family relationship with the Deputy Director of the Ministerial police. 

The top leader of Sinaloa even said Vizcarra Burgos is an agent who in recent years has given good results in the fight against crime. 

"I had no knowledge of this alleged relationship that you mentioned and that Martiniano is a police officer, for 20 or 30 years,  I don't know how many years has been in the department, and I know that in recent days has been very committed to combating crime", said López Valdez. 

The Governor said that there would be an investigation regarding the information that Ríodoce had spread about the kinship between the criminal leader and the police chief. 

But the investigative momentum went off like a bomb, when three days later, interviewed by the media during the celebrations of the day of the Mexican Revolution, Jesus Antonio Aguilar Iñiguez, head of the Ministerial Police, came out in defense of his "right  hand man", saying that it would put the whole department behind the good reputation of Vizcarra Burgos.

"It is true that this person - Rafael Guadalupe Félix Núñez, known as "El Changuito", is married to a daughter of Commander Martiniano Vizcarra, but he never advised them when they wanted to marry,", the police chief explained to Ríodoce, in a separate interview. 

"Martiniano (at left) divorced his first wife, mother of those kids, many years ago and has been living with another family," he added. 

In defense of his subordinate, Aguilar Iñiguez reported that Vizcarra Burgos' daughter, Ana Lilia Vizcarra Vega, divorced "El Changuito" this year. 

Last June she filed for divorce because she had problems with her partner, and on 23 September a judge of Costa Rica granted the action. 

He said that in the document, Rafael Félix agrees to pay 15,000 pesos a month as support for the two children they had together. They married in 2006, when Commander Vizcarra Burgos had legal problems, as a result of what happened at Cinepolis Culiacán Plaza on September 11, 2004, when Rodolfo Carrillo Fuentes was murdered. 

Martiniano has more than 30 years of service and is a serious man committed to his work,  Chuytoño said.

Martiano’s letter of few words

Commander Martiniano Vizcarra is a man of few words, who will not agree to give an interview, but did draft a brief letter. But his explanation is, to say the least, fantastic. 

"I'm a dad like any other and I agree to be the father of Ana Lilia Vizcarra Vega, and out of respect for her mother I will omit her name, but due to personal problems I live apart from them. 

"The fact that she decided to join together in marriage was a decision that I didn't have anything to do with, until today when I heard that she married a person who appears in the media since he has problems with the law, this person who I do not know and I categorically deny any relationship or friendship, or rather than in my capacity as public official in the police I have favored him, or that he would have taken advantage of my job".

Changuito and Monki: How they escaped the pot

Rafael Guadalupe Félix Núñez, "El Changuito" and José Miguel Arano Montoya, "El Monki", were delivered to the soldiers of the Navy by chance. Still in the same house where slept Ismael Zambada Imperial that morning that they were captured, they decided to "run" on quads. They carried no radios. 

While on the mountain, they saw the movement of helicopters which, like huge vultures, hovered about  Estancia de Los Burgos. On seeing them land they knew that "El Mayito Gordo" had fallen. 

They hid all day and night on the mountain, and the next day took to the road, where they were collected by his people. 

It took more to recover from the bustle and establish a connection with his accomplices, when Navy trapped them. The monkey were arrested the next day while he was in a Nissan car, at the junction of the streets of bougainvillea and 12 October, the colony may 10. 

Reviewing it, the Navy found an AK-47 rifle with your charger supplied with 29 useful cartridges; a supplied charger with 30 useful cartridges calibre 7.62 x 39 mm and a.9 mm pistol.

In the trunk, said the PGR in a statement, they found a kilogram of cocaine he had. 

That morning the Monki was also arrested. 

According to the part of the Navy, at approximately 9:50 hours the Feds patrolling the colonia Ruiz Cortines and going on the calle Severiano M. Moreno, noted that on the aforementioned Street, was a person who wore a bulletproof vest as he was getting into an SUV. 

It was a Mercedes Benz, silver gray, with plates from the State of Durango. They covered his step with federal unit and José Miguel Arano ran towards the avenida Gral. Fernando Cuen, by what a naval officer ran after him. 

He was given scope on the same street. A pistol calibre was found 9 mm with a magazine inserted seven useful cartridges and one in the Chamber. Also three Chargers supplied. 

In the van found in the passenger seat a weapon caliber 7.62 × 39, known as the goat Horn, charger inserted and stocked with useful 29 cartridges and one in the Chamber. On the floor of the vehicle found a charger supplied with useful 27 cartridges calibre 7.62 x 39 mm.

Old Dirt

Both El Changuito and El Monki, along with another gunman, were arrested on April 16, 2013, when in a raid conducted by the Municipal police in the south of the city, and commanded by the then Secretary of public, Carlos Alfonso Ontiveros Salas, they were found with at least four AK-47 rifles. 

They moved them to the facilities of the police in Culiacan and entered data to the base of criminal information known as platform Mexico, while arsenal was lowered in the rear of the office of the director of the Corporation. 

This time, elements who took part in the arrest of the armed group reported that among those arrested was a person identified as El Changuito and another nicknamed as El Monki.

While they came to sign the detainees, he entered the offices of the police chiefs the high command of the State Ministerial police called , demanding their releas, by the night of April 16. 

This caused both Ontiveros Salas and other police chiefs to be threatened with death, which led to the resignation of the Secretary, after have been hidden outside the state for 15 days.

There were also threats of death against Ontiveros Salas, Hipolito Hernandez and other police controls who participated in the referred operation, among them the head of specialized unit against the theft of vehicles of the DSPM, being forced to leave the State for reasons of personal safety. 

Ontiveros Salas was in the city of Mexico until May 6 reappeared in Culiacan to present his resignation as Secretary of public safety and Municipal transit. The accurate information Hipolito Hernandez re-joined the DSPM, but not as Deputy but as first officer. 

Record or informative part about these facts was not in the Municipal police. 

The monkey and the Monki arrested, there only remain in the old structure of El Antrax three of its main agents: René Velázquez, El Sargento Phoenix, who recently came out of jail; El Tracka and Cheyo (Eliseo Imperial, cousin of el Mayito Gordo).

The death of "El Fello"

Martiniano Vizcarra Burgos lost a son in a tragic way. Alfredo Vizcarra Vega, who originally commanded the group that later would be called Los Antrax, was killed on November 4, 2008, in the framework of the war that broke out inside of the Sinaloa cartel, following the arrest of Alfredo Beltrán Leyva. 

He was in a car wash located on 21st of March Street, in the colonia Diez de Mayo, when a group of sicarios arrived at the place in two trucks and opened fire. Also killed was another person and two more were wounded. 

El Fello lived two blocks from there, by the Lilia Street, Martiniano Vizcarra's home until he had to flee the city once the PGR sought ithim, along with Jesús Antonio Aguilar Iñiguez, under the presumption that they had protected drug traffickers when they were - as now-, at the head of the Ministerial police in the six-year period of Sinaloa governor Juan Millán Lizárraga. 

The death of Alfredo Vizcarra, his friend Rodrigo Aréchiga Gamboa, who had baptized his eldest son, took command of the group. Later they named the team of assassins: Los Antrax.
