"HEARST" and "Huaso" for Borderland Beat
At least two cartel road blockades have appeared in the municipalities of Autlán de Navarro and El Grullo, in the state of Jalisco.
The Roadblocks
It is currently unclear why the two roadblocks have been erected although the news publication El Occidental is currently reporting that there are Army and Navy personnel currently in the area.
One of these roadblocks was created by commandeering a school bus. The bus was then set on fire at El Corcovado bridge, on Highway 80 in Autlan de Navarro.
A truck was also commandeered and burned on the bridge at a later point.
The other was created by burning a large cargo truck at the intersection of Puerta de Barro and Las Pilas in El Grullo municipality. The El Grullo police department released a statement confirming the location of the two roadblocks.
The Context of the Region
The municipality of El Grullo has a long history with CJNG. In 2012, the El Grullo police chief, Sergio Hernandez Gonzalez was alleged to be a leader of CJNG, according to El Universal. He was later implicated in the death of a nearby mayor in 2014 and disappeared.
In 2015, CJNG members used an RPG to shoot down a military helicopter, killing five soldiers who were conducting an operation against the CJNG in the nearby town of Villa Purificación, reported InSight Crime.
During this incident, the CJNG also erected at least 40 narco blockades in the region as they attempted to thwart the government operation, according to BBC Mundo.
In 2020, Mexican press reported that El Mencho, who suffers from kidney issues, was building a hospital for himself in the municipality of Villa Purificación, Jalisco, as reported by Borderland Beat.
All accounts show that this region in Southern Jalisco is deeply controlled by the CJNG, and suggest that it is considered crucial to CJNG leadership.
Information Trickling In
Newspaper Mural reports that the road blockades were created at the break of dawn this morning, on Saturday, January 28, 2022.
Zeta Tijuana writes that the blockades were first reported to the emergency phone line at around 6:00 am.
The state’s head of Public Security, Letra Fría, also confirmed the location of the road blockades and announced that state police (in conjunction with other agencies) were working to clear the roadways.
Weekly magazine Zeta Tijuana wrote that “Although the reason for the blockades is still unknown, unofficial versions of the story allege there was an arrest of an important member of organized crime, without any authority confirming this action.”
The twitter account Notiface alleges there was “a shootout between criminals and the National Guard that ended in blockades with trucks and buses burning.”
Milenio newspaper writes that “state authorities reported that National Guard personnel who patrol the municipality of Atengo were attacked by a group of cartel hitmen who were driving a white pick-up truck, who then fled the area and could not be found.”

Oohhh they’re close to someone big. I’m from Tonaya which is 15 mins farther up the mountain, you’ll remember the helicopter that was shot down was here, there’s a federal memorial for the soilders that died that day right before you enter the town. There’s definitely a lot of his relatives around here everyone knows. Especially his brother he’s the one that runs this whole region. Check out the map keep going from tonaya and you’ll find Los asmoles and a lot of cartel activity (labs,grows,sicario training, etc.it’s. It not unusual to see his brother or even him before at regular events like Toros and shit.
ReplyDeleteGracias mano,keep posting,we need more like you posting on BB
DeleteWhich brother are you referring to? Abraham Oseguera? Could also be that they arrested “Meno” Pelayo Pelayo. He’s jefe regional for Villa Purificacion and surrounding municipios.
DeleteI think they'll catch another big fish before mench
DeleteMy mom’s family is from Tonaya. I thought the helio that went down or shot down was in Via Purification?
DeleteMencho or Doble RR 😱
ReplyDeleteMexico been taking out the trash lately hopefully mencho falls and they catch the rest of the rats over at CDS
ReplyDeleteYeah bro,mencho needs to go,maybe same dance will happen to CJNG as what happened to Zetas after their figurehead little legs Lazca got leaked out ? CJNG needs dismantling,look what they are doing to the WHOLE of mexico
DeleteI see no difference between CDS and CJNG 11:28
Delete11:40 go to Zac n u will easily see the difference
DeleteOr go to guanajuato
Delete5:09 stop drinking the koolaid there's nothing good about CDS. CjNG is a horrible cartel but so is CDS and there's nothing more dangerous then the lesser of the evil. The only good cartel member is a dead or locked up cartel member. I can't wait for Ovidio to land in the US he could have gone to any school of his liking but he chose to be a drug lord. I would be so far ahead in life if some one paid for my school
Delete5:40 CDS are scumbags but CJNG are way worse people in zacatecas refer to CDS as los buenos and to CJNG as los malos. CJNG has killed a lot of inocentes for fun.
Delete5:40 either u know nothing about what u talking about or u just a cheerleader loser clapping for cjng, nobody said cds is a good cartel but in Zac is obvious the difference, I know cause I'm from there...are u??I don't think so so STFU.... I can't wait til the day one of those clowns u cheering for kidnap n dismember one of ur family members in front of a camera
Delete1:18 One thing i can honestly say about CDS is that they are masters at brain washing ifnorant people, making them believe they are "the good cartel" shit they have killed probably more innocent people than any other cartel, but always pin in on the rival cartel, i mean we dont really have to go back to long, what happened when the 2 times Ovidio got caught? I still dont see any difference between the Cds and CJNG if you do well i got news for you, you got brain washed
Delete3:20 thats really fucked up, wishing someone the worst so you can prove your point, its like some one wishing CDS rapes and kill all your underage daughters so you can believe CDS are at the same level of CJNG, but i wont wish you that, yes CJNG are more public about their violent acts but whatever henious acts they are doing CDS has also done them, so at the end they are both the same shit, one with a little bit of perfume so they dont stink as much but at the end they both are pieces of shit
DeleteLet me Go Down... It's Time
ReplyDeleteMaybe something to do with the missing militar?
ReplyDeleteLuna is trying to drag with him some bad hombres but the media won't cover that
ReplyDeleteMencho was seen in the union de tvla area recently might be on to him
ReplyDeleteEl Señor Mencho was at a cock fight with Double R in the area. They already left . RR was carrying his RPG and a 30 man team of operators from Grupo Elite . El Señor Mencho was dressed in all Burberry camo outfit ,Balenciaga shoes and gucci sunglasses
ReplyDeleteGet fuck outta here with that 😂
Delete😂 it’s not Mencho
ReplyDeleteI was staying next to the presidencia in Guadalajara last February 14th.
ReplyDeleteEvedently Mencho died in a Guadalajara hospital that day . You should have seen all the crazy activity. One of the guards said Mencho died.
Negative mencho was at el grullo fiestas last year
DeletePor el agucate
Delete1:41
DeleteIt's funny how you have many people, still want to believe Mencho is alive.
Since then many want to keep a tight lip, and act as if he alive. CJNG is being run within family.
Segun que arrestaron a un tal "el pato" lugarteniemete de la gallina y la firma en Mascota . Unos conocidos de ciudad guzman me comentaron via whats app
ReplyDeleteDicen que el pato lla fue re-emplasado con el Goose (Gus).
DeleteI spoke to one of the street vendors for my Christmas vacation in Puerto Vallarta and he confirmed mencho is very alive
ReplyDeleteNo fue capturado nadie, fue intento de captura fallido.
ReplyDeleteFunny how NOBODY knew who mencho was in 2014..
ReplyDeleteU probably didn't chief but the guy been around putting in work since the early 2000s milenio cartel
Delete6:47 everyone who follows knew. CDS fanboys only ones didn't see it coming!
DeleteI'll give credit when credit is due...tho CJNG had bn on the scene somewhat as a regional enforcer group for CDS..No one knew.. it seems not even the government at this point...It was Chivis emphasized how CJNG was a growing national threat and how they'd be more violent and organised than the Zetas, she practically predicted this exact outcome..tbh at the time I didn't understand as the only indication how bad this would get was the rolling stone article (I think) that stated how CJNG had grown in the shadows to be the richest cartel by focusing on the European Market which hd less seizures n more profits..in my opinion this seemed like a better M.O. and it kept them off the DEAs radar n they weren't involved in as many battles for plazas I've always wondered why the smaller groups don't follow that same M.O...kudos to u guys for keeping this site running after all these years
Delete4:57 correct I remember back in 2014/2015 chivis 100% warned people about CJNG
DeleteChivis used to be like a publicist for CDS on here. Her belief in the Autodefensas was puzzling because everyone in Michoacán knew their were crooks.
Delete4:57 stop with the missinformation, CJNG was never under CDS, having a truce is not the same as working for CDS, people who claim CJNG worked for CDS have no clue of what they are talking about and have no credibility on what they write, Hearts you should do a post of where CJNG actually came from so that this guys get a real clue of how they started, starting from one of the most secret cartel Cartel del Milenio, thats how CJNG came to be
Delete4:57 I think the Europe market theory is made up. In southern zacatecas Cjng are behaving worse than Zetas they rob grocery suppliers they extort pharmacies grocery stores and charge $ ranchers for every head of cattle sold.
Delete@12:48 go and read what was written 1st Enforcer group doesn't necessarily mean they were under CDS as we've seen in numerous cases with other larger cartels including the "almighty" CJNG..using smaller regional cartels/groups through some sort of pacts/agreements, the details of which NONE of us no about until they fall apart and narcomantas and headless corpses start appearing..Now you my friend seem to have some kind of inside knowledge.. do u care to enlighten us "clueless" folks..lol "came from from one of the most secret cartels" just gives off fanboy vibes whilst you're statement is partially correct it's very vague but yet you speak of misinformation..telling "Hearts" to write some cartel fairytale u got in ur head based on what facts.. what sources.. yours?..@1:25 I think u misunderstood what I said..that was their M.O. in the past when they seemed to have a low profile whilst still generating massive sums of money according to the DEA..I don't get the impression that was from extortion..they probably did to some degree who knows..but now present day they seem to be just as bad or even worse than Zetas more ruthless,violent and even better equipped..not sure about the extortion aspect..do u live in South Zacatecas? if u do I'm sure you'd have a clearer picture/understanding than me whilst there's bn some useful comments posted from ppl that live in places controlled by CJNG its impossible to verify these comments
Delete5:45 😂 fairytale? Look man i lived in the area where all this cartel worked and got along well, even had a causin working for LFM (by the way he got wacked by CJNG when the war broke out thanks to Chapo's failed attempt to kill Mecho) any ways its common knowledge around my area that CDS and CDM just like LFM, CDG and other smaller cartels like Carte de los güeros got along, actually work with each others, CDM was actually Nachos meth provider, they would sell nacho meth by tons and nacho would use CDS routs to send it up north, thats the reason why Nacho was known as El Rey Del Cristal, any ways CDM would stay low key in terms of sending jale to the US and catching any heat they rather send merca to Europe (less heat and bigger revenues) thats how they worked and it payed big time for them, but like i said before thanks to Chapo trying to kill Mencho all of those pacts between cartels broke and a new narco war started, and CJNG was born when all the CDM bosses got caught, its really not that hard to understand, its just that people like to go by fake corridos instead of actual facts, look here girl im just trying to educate some of you guys who dont really know facts, but if you dont want to learn i can't make you 👍
DeleteMenchos wife lives in the ranchos outside of autlan
ReplyDeleteShe lived in lagunillas but they took her out of there already
DeleteActually 80s and 90s he even had the corrido from Los aces
ReplyDeleteYup bad ass corrido, that album was the shiznit
Delete🎶Morelia la capital
y Michoacán el estado🎶
U know what is crazy is these cartel clowns say they got the peoples backs, but everytime one of these losers gets arrested they go kidnapping em and destroying their entire cities with violence or telling people they have so long to leave town .... Last time I checked that isn't helping nobody u idiots
ReplyDeleteHearst, I’ll say it once and I’ll say it again, your impeccable and amazing research and writing is what makes borderland beat my go to website with all issues south of the border. Just want to say thank you and please continue the great and incredible work you do, you might not see it, but it is always appreciated.
ReplyDeleteIm from san gabriel and my ranch got raided… my neighbors had exotic animals thats why the highway is closed theyre meddling where theyre not suppose to be… everything is calm until gov shows up or other dude try to come in if you guys have been paying attention to ggl trial cjng is a pri cartel and well theyre very much in control in all aspects
ReplyDeleteIn zacatecas cjng kill people for fun . Run people from their hones and ranches rob from people and lots of extortion
Delete1:28 like CDS did in Sinaloa when Raton got caught?
DeleteI saw el senor Mencho at a taqueria in Pico Rivera last week. He bought everyone al pastor but said it was because he won.the loteria so he is on the down low. We all knew who he was but nobody said his name. He got mad that the chile was wimpy but he was still nice to the taqueros.
