Murdered in Texas, Osiel Cardenas' attorney ,"was head of CDG"...says defense

Lucio R. Borderland Beat

Juan Jesus Guerrero Chapa had been warned, one thing the Texas defense attorney knew for sure,  he was a dead man walking. He was warned  ‘to be on his guard.” 

The warning became reality in May of 2013, when gunmen gunned down the attorney who represented supreme Golfo Cartel leader Osiel Cardenas.  When murdered, Guerrero Chapa, was with his wife in the parking lot of  Southlake Town Square. 

A white Toyota SUV stopped behind Guerrero Chapa’s  Range Rover, a door of the Toyota opened and a masked gunman exited.  The gunman then walked to the passenger side of the Range Rover, where the attorney was sitting, and fired into the vehicle hitting Guerrero Chapa multiple times with a 9mm handgun.

The attorney’s wife was loading shopping bags into the Range Rover when her husband was shot, she was not physically harmed.

The hit-men have never been identified or charged in the murder case.

However, two men Jesus Gerardo Ledezma-Cepeda and his son Jesus Gerardo Ledezma-Campano Jr., are charged with interstate stalking and murder for hire conspiracy.  The U.S. government charged the men, both Mexican Nationals, of having  followed Guerrero Chapa for months before his death.

On April 3, 2016,     Wes Ball and J. Warren St. John, the attorneys of the senior Ledezma Cepeda, filed a response to the “Government’s Motion to Suppress the Presence of Cocaine in the Body of the Deceased.”

Further included in the filing is the defense claim that the slain attorney was, at the time of his death, the de facto leader of CDG

From the filing:

“The deceased Juan Jesus Guerrero Chapa was the subject of an autopsy concerning the cause of his death. That autopsy disclosed the presence of the illegal controlled substance cocaine in his body at the time of his death. The evidence in this case will show that Chapa was the attorney for the head of a large international drug cartel known as the Gulf Cartel or CDG. The head of this drug cartel, Osiel Cardenas, prior to the instant offense, was arrested and extradited to the United States. Cardenas was convicted of offenses and sentenced to confinement for a period of 25 years in a Federal prison. Following Cardenas’ arrest, his attorney Chapa was the de facto head of CDG. As head of CDG, the deceased Chapa ran a large criminal enterprise whose activities included murders, narcotics trafficking, kidnapping, extortion, bribery, money laundering and torture.
Furthermore the defense is challenging the contention of the government that Guerrero Chapa was fearful of his life, because of threats, stating:

“The Government has advised the Court that it seeks to offer evidence that Chapa learned that there were those seeking to kill him. The evidence will show that Chapa had a large number of enemies which included R V 1 , and others from drug cartels including CDG and Los Zetas. These enemies were not in all cases aligned with one another. The government seeks to show through hearsay testimony that Chapa expressed that he was fearful of the threat against him. Contrary to this expressed fear is the fact that Chapa continued his association with criminal enterprises which included his use of cocaine.”

Ledezma Cepeda’s cousin,  Jose Luis Cepeda-Cortes,  a legal U.S. resident, also is charged in the case. There are three others named and charged in the sealed indictment.

The conspiracy to kill Guerrero Chapa began two years prior to his death.

The Fort Worth trial will commence on April 25th.

  1. for all the haters, i guess Chapo and Mayo aren't the only snitches.. looks like this rat is just as much a snitch as JOTOSIEL CARDENAS.. I wouldn't be surprised if osiel gets the same justice when he's released.. i understand chapo is a snitch but you have to hand it to him.. he practically ran the "WalMart" of drug trafficking for over 20yrs... osiel was "nickle and Diming' for less than 5yrs and got busted for making stupid moves..compared to the sinaloans, cdg is nothing.. yea truth hurts

    1. Who gives a shit about any of these losers. They are all garbage to this world and they all snitch every fukkkin one of them. As for stupid moves they all make them sooner or later. U sound like the pendejos who say chapo is good el señor de los cielos was good. No one drugdealer is good they all are shit and no matter how much money they make they are empty and miserable. The only thruth here is these pendejos get to were they are because of pendejos who cheer and follow them. Te lo dejo de tarea

They snitch on blo people on macho prieto & he probably snitch out Chapo short ass. No honor among thieves that's for sure. When caught up almost everybody will start to sing.

    7. 3:58. Lmao.
      @7:24. Looks like the guys that snitched are the zeta father and son. Looks like they told them why they were following him. And who else they were following. And why. And this story does make since. Cdg lost a lot of structure. But maybe the Sinaloas popped him. Would make sense too. They made agreements with Cdg. Had to go through him. Let the rest of zeta vs zeta vs cdg vs cdg kill each other off which is what's happening and easier to take that plaza. In other words nobody knows shittt.

  2. Com-on now. The defense says he wasn't fearful for his life . Well he wasn't fearful enough for sure . Basically theyre saying he had no reason to fear ? I would say that subject would be moot at this point . I hope these hitmen get the death penalty . I find them guilty on the evidence presented before me. I can do that . I'm not the media and I'm not a impartial juror . If these fucker are innocent its most likely not of much . Oh yea and I'm not politically correct . But I am certainly glad we got people like Chivis to help balance it out . Short rope and a tall tree !

    3. Hi DD
      yesterday lucio and i looked at all the documents on pacer. there was no mention of most the stuff that DDN contends. While it could be, we are going by the documents. the indictment is sealed and one other doc.

      The post Lucio put up prior to this was from DDN I think the one you link to. But after paying for and going through the docs, and it seems that the defense is contending the atty was a big time CDG leader, the feds are defending him and even tried to get the cocaine found in his system out of trial.

      stay tuned...another novela....BTW I am back in action although on a limited basis beginning today.

    4. The government agencies do not testify in criminal cases because of their secret secrecy concerns and Omertas.

    2. 5:57 by law, the only agency that can traffic and import drugs into the US is the DEA, all others doing it are criminals, and no amount of presidential pardons will change any of it.
      They claim patriotic motives, it is a lie, they stole most of the money for investments abroad safely offshored...
