The Sociedad Morelense Threatens La Mera Verga


Early this morning more than 8 narco mantas appeared in different municipalities such as Amacuzac, Tetecala, Puente de Ixtla, and Miacatlan. These mantas threaten the criminal group of La Mera Verga, which is commanded by Abel Maya, and they intend to remove him from the state. The mantas were signed by a rival group called The Morelense Society.

The people of Morelos as well as the Southwestern Zone are tired with the fear of extortions, kidnappings, floor fees and murders. We will annihilate all that scum that has harmed our people. We were able to take out Los Rojos. Therefore, the purge continues.

Now we’re coming after you Abel Maya.

Confessions of a Deported U.S. Soldier: Mexican Drug Cartels Are Recruiting Us and ‘the System Is Failing’

Chivis Martinez Borderland Beat TY Gus from Daily Beast

"Hey, Andrew. It’s Miguel. Listen... they got rid of me.” 


The guards came in the middle of the night and sent me to Tamaulipas, a state in Mexico with U.S. travel restrictions due to violence. Only after landing was I able to call my family to tell them what happened. I should have had two more weeks before deportation.
The whole process—from the initial moment I learned my case had an immigration hold to the midnight wake-up call—can only be described as surreal. I’ve considered myself an American my entire life. If “home is where the heart is,” my home is in Chicago with my family and the Cubs. My grandfather is a natural-born American citizen but moved to Mexico to start his family. And his son, my father, moved our family back to the U.S. when I was only 8 years old.
