BLO: Alfredo "Mochomo" Beltran Leyva to be sentenced on April 5th

Chivis Martinez for Borderland Beat-thank you Narcomics!

A week prior to the originally scheduled trial, Alfredo “Mochomo” Beltran Leyva informed his attorney, Eduardo Balarezo, of his desire to enter an “unconditional guilty plea”.  The plea is as bad as it sounds, he unlike any other narco who has litigated in the federal court of U.S. did not seek  a deal in exchange for a favorable sentence,     
From the point of the extradition filing and as the process continued, the case contained irregularities. If one retrieves the life of the case beginning at “Zero”, as Borderland Beat previously pointed out, only at the point that Beltran Leyva was nearing the end of his prison sentence in Mexico, did the United States have him in their crosshairs.  He was not mentioned in previous BLO Cartel indictments, nor named in previous witness testimony given by cooperatives, such as the Flores twins who named, and gave critical information against  scores of capo’s and cartel members they interacted with.  Yet one of the twins was slated to testify in behalf of the U.S. in any trial against Beltran Leyva. 

The rushed indictment was bare bones, boiler plate issue.  When he pleaded guilty,  he was pleading to one charge, taking place in Washington State in November, 2010, the bust occurred while Beltrán Leyva was incarcerated in Mexico.  It is the contention of the U.S.,  that the defendant was still continuing to give operational orders while behind bars.



From filing:
“Mr. Beltrán Leyva’s understanding, as well as that of his Mexican attorneys, was that he being extradited to face charges related to the drug seizures in Washington State. 
However, after Mr. Beltrán Leyva’s extradition, the government disclosed that it intended to try Mr. Beltrán Leyva as being a member of a large-scale conspiracy involving the Mexican “Federation,” which is alleged to be composed of the “Sinaloa Cartel” and what the government terms the “Beltrán Leyva Organization.” 
The government further sought to try him as conspiring with Colombian traffickers to import cocaine from Colombia to Mexico. Finally, the government sought to associate Mr. Beltrán Leyva with multiple seizures of cocaine loads. It was understood from early on that the government’s evidence consisted principally of cooperator testimony. Based on the information available to him concerning the government’s evidence, Mr. Beltrán Leyva decided to exercise his constitutional right to trial.
During the pendency of this case, the government filed various motions where it claims it set forth other crimes evidence against Mr. Beltrán Leyva. The week before the scheduled start of trial, the government proffered to the Court the expected testimony of various witnesses, including cooperators.

The government now seeks to have the Court sentence Mr. Beltrán Leyva to life in prison based largely on the representations in its various motions and the “proffer” provided prior to the scheduled trial. The Court should reject that government’s request and sentence Mr. Beltrán Leyva to 25 years. In sum, the Court should not rely solely upon the government’s self-serving and non-objective recitation of the facts it believes it would have proven at trial.”

Extradition

Extraditions from Mexico to the U.S. is to include all charges intended to bring against the defendant at trial.  An exception is an agreement entered in to by the two nations, written and signed by Mexico prior to extradition.  In the case of Beltran Leyva, it lacked such an agreement, yet the U.S. added charges subsequent to his transfer to the Unites States. 

When the guilty plea was entered, defense and the U.S. presented its pre-sentencing filings including the ridiculous forfeiture of 10,000,000,000, TEN BILLION dollars. This figure was largely based on “information” set forth by narco’s, fulfilling a portion of their obligation after cutting sweet deals with the United States.  What is painful to see, it the list of scum, far greater a threat and past criminality than Alfredo Beltran Leyva.  While it is  while understandable the trade off in the deals made with the Flores Twins in exchange for valuable information, but the others…truly a mockery to justice. 

After the filings were received by the trial judge, and perhaps his sensing probable difficulties, regarding  the case on appeal. Such as the claims against the defendant were substantially based on the word of bad guys who cut deals.  And just maybe the explanation of how exactly the ten billion dollar forfeiture figure was derived, should be on record.  It was then the judge ordered the evidentiary hearing.

Motion to withdraw guilty

It was during this time, that Beltran Leyva filed a Motion to withdraw guilty plea.  It was denied, as was the motion to reconsider.

Motion to withdraw (the filings posted contain an abundance of cartel information)

    4. In US law the plea agreement allows the forfeiture of already seized funds, property and any other valuable that may be in the possession of him, or any company or shell or family member that is deemed proceeds of the alleged conduct.

      Many lawyers in the US fail to inform their clients that under federal law, you do not have to sign a plea agreement. A common theme in the court room is to drop a few counts and have you plead guilty to lets say count one. Count one is usually the conspiracy count that carries the most time.. So basically its a fuck you deal.. You sign your name, lose your right to appeal , give away your assets, and then a few months later your issued your pre sentence investigation report that shows your sentence guideline range.

    5. @11:15pm Exactly... If Chapo is 65 years old already there is no plea deal he can make that would get him out of jail before he dies. HE won't give any of his money away.

      Delete
    6. The US government already has Chapo's money in many different jurisdictions. Its just a formal process at this point, Chapo can give the governments what it asks, or it will prosecute anyone who steps forward and tries to lay claim to it. To even defend a forfeiture is foolish, a attorney will charge you lets say 50k to fight it, if they win they get 35% and then you pay 35% tax to the US government . Its a lose lose situation.

  11. To correct a very important error in this article....Leyva took a sworn plea of "guilty" not a plea of "nolo contendere". These are two distinct and separate pleas. He accepted responsibility and pled GUILTY to the US indictment and charges. Do not get this confused with the "no contest" plea.

    1. I will take your word for it, but that is what the document states and where I got the term. He only plead to the one charge, not to others including being a leader.

    3. Indeed. A "Nolo Contendere" is basically pleading no contest. You aren't pleading guilty, nor are you pleading not-guilty. While not technically a guilty plea, it has the same immediate effect as a guilty plea.

      Usually you only hear someone pleading no contest when it's part of a plea bargain. But Mochomo didn't take a plea deal so if he did indeed plead "Nolo Contendere" that would be odd.

    5. Nolo just means you submit to the wisdom of the court, you are not pleading guilty or innocent or playing old wives games.
      In mexico they plead you with "ya te agarré, ya te chingastes" when the polesias need to catch some criminal, they even sit you before a spoken portrait specialist to make your wanted photo after they catch you...

    1. He got screwed...they could not get arturo. he should have made a deal. He has a top attorney who works diligently on his behalf and cares about his client.

      as for believing in Mochomo. what I believe in is that he must pay for his criminality, even he says that and has put in many years in Mexican prison already. What I do believe is that he was screwed by the U.S. government, unfairly. and not matter what or who a person is, we all have the right to fairness. and I am very upset at the scum like La Barbie and a dozen others who did get deals, that imo were too good for the number and horrific crimes they committed . seems a gross waste of tax money, time and human cost.

      Legalization!! lets start there.

Except we have a extradition treaty with mexico . We don't let them serve us prison sentences down there . Chivis you sound almost like some of those nonsense writ writers in the prison systems. The bottom line is he knew when he was committing his crimes he was putting everything on the line . Weather he has billions put back or a few hundred dollars , it was greed that motivated him . He threw himself at the mercy of the court and as far as we know didn't offer anything . He accepted his fate , why don't you ?

    3. You are very intelligent person. I am very amazed and proud of you for speaking out the way you do. And I agree with you that Alfredo is getting the bad end of it. It seems like such a waste of taxpayer money, and the people don't even realize what the government is doing. And I agree it's time to do some legalization and knock the organized crime L and then out of the bunch of these things. It's gone way past the point. Some people recognize who I am. I lived in Arizona for a long time and I was involved with a lot of these people at one point. But I will say it never ceases to amaze me what the government will do in the deals they will cut with complete trash. It's a very disgusting world. Nothing in the world is worth being involved with this activity with the deck stacked against you the way it is. It's a complete waste of taxpayer money. I wish you the best I wish you well.

    5. ABK....thank you. My views have changed radically with respect to "drug war" over the past 15 years. living and working in mexico, in the middle of a hot spot was the the point of seeking all the information I could on the subject. I may not be an expert by any measure, but I know enough to acknowledge my thinking/opinion was wrong, lazy and woefully irresponsible, I depended on political narrative and short-sided investigative reporting and books on the subject. Seeing and experiencing the affects changes a persons priority, compassion and concern on the subject.

      It was the views of two American doctors, one whose son follows our blog, who first talk to me about their strong opinion supporting legalization. I appreciate that legalization is controversial, but i do think one day it will happen, and legal pot is the first step.

    6. @1:05 I am confidant His atty gave him advice and detail in each option. They halted the proceedings at one point when the gov wanted to enter into plea discussions. It went no where, he refused to rat out anyone. I do not know him directly, and he has never given an interview, but I have interacted with a couple of people who are/were and what they shared told me he would most likely never cut a deal because he would never testify against anyone. I thought he would change his mind because of his children and wife. But that has not happened. BTW he was married to Chapo's cousin, and now married to his niece. Or the other way around I would have to check.

      Remember, his atty can advise until he runs out of oxygen, but the decision is up to the client. as it should be. As the old saying reminds us "you can lead the horse to water....but can't make him drink

    7. @10:29

      You missed a point, he does not have money. it was the ridiculous claim of the U.S. that prompted the judge to call for a hearing AFTER the guilty plea.

      Secondly, he needs to pay for his crime. My opinion, based on over a decade of narco research and writing is he should not be the one to get life. it should be those who se criminality is far greater...like edgar. no deals for people like him. no matter. give info?? for what? to spend millions, make an arrest then give that scum a deal? and the info from that scumb? ditto?

      see?

      that is my issue. they got the wrong guy to make an example of. a bust in washinton...getting life? yet dealing with the creator of execution on film...gets a deal? that is what I say. like it or not, it is my opinion. I refuse to knee jerk an opinion.
