World's Most Notorious Drug-Lord - Billionaire Mexican Cartel Boss "El Chapo" - Captured

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The world’s most notorious and powerful drug lord, Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman Loera, has reportedly been captured in Mexico. The head of the Sinoloa Cartel - nicknamed Chapo or "shorty" - was caught last night, according to the AP, at a hotel resort in Mazatlan in a joint US-Mexico operation. Forbes ranked Guzman 67 out of 72 on their list of the World’s Most Powerful People. With revenues believed to exceed $3bn, his Sinaloa cartel is easily the most powerful in Mexico, responsible for an estimated 25% of all illegal drugs that enter the U.S. via Mexico. While this may appear good news (catching a big bad guy), Stratfor warns "this could spark a wave of violence throughout northwestern Mexico if internal shifts evolve into intra-cartel conflict."

 

Via Forbes,

In 2011, Forbes writer Nathan Vardi reported on how the kingpin had surpassed Pablo Escobar to become the biggest ever. “Chapo has a vast criminal enterprise and he has become the leading drug trafficker of all time,” a senior U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration official told Forbes. “He is the godfather of the drug world.”

 

Last February the city of Chicago branded him the first “Public Enemy No. 1″ since Al Capone.

 

...

 

Will another stint in prison really bring the end of El Chapo? It didn’t before. During his previous eight years in the clink Guzman continued to manage his cartel via cell phone, while enjoying access to booze, women and a home entertainment system. It was in January 2001, when facing extradition to the U.S., that he slipped into a laundry cart and was rolled out to freedom.

 

Via Stratfor,

The Mexican military and U.S. authorities captured a top leader of the Sinaloa Federation, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman Loera, in an unnamed hotel in Mazatlan, Sinaloa state, sometime during the night of Feb. 21. Guzman, who has long eluded authorities, faces several federal drug trafficking indictments and is on the Drug Enforcement Administration's most-wanted list. Reportedly, the hotel had been under surveillance for five weeks prior to the arrest, but Guzman had arrived in Mazatlan only days earlier, fleeing military operations in Culiacan.

 

El Chapo was partly responsible for the expansion of the Sinaloa Federation into the territories of rival Mexican transnational criminal organizations, commonly referred to as cartels. He also helped oversee the expansion of Sinaloa Federation operations beyond Mexico, most notably drug trafficking routes into Europe and Asia. Since December, however, the Sinaloa Federation has suffered from a series of substantial arrests, impacting the cartel wing led by Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada Garcia. The cartel has also faced rising challenges in its areas of operations by regional crime networks as well as other transnational criminal organizations. The tempo and success of operations targeting top Sinaloa Federation leaders will severely hamper the cartel's ability to defend its operations in northwestern Mexico, possibly leading to substantial violence in several areas as rival criminal organizations seek to exploit the cartel's new vulnerabilities.

 

Like most of Mexico's major transnational criminal organizations, the Sinaloa Federation is led by a collection of crime bosses, each with their own network, operating under a common banner. In addition to Guzman, other notable top-tier leaders include Zambada and Juan Jose "El Azul" Esparragoza Moreno. These  leaders guide the Sinaloa Federation's overall strategy and activity throughout Mexico, as well as its transnational operations. With Guzman now in custody, the remaining top bosses, along with several less-prominent leaders, will look to maintain the Sinaloa Federation's control over Guzman's network. This could spark a wave of violence throughout northwestern Mexico if internal shifts evolve into intra-cartel conflict.

 

A more likely source of violence -- one that could occur alongside an internal Sinaloa Federation feud -- would be a push by the Sinaloa Federation's rivals for control over drug trafficking operations in current Sinaloa Federation territories, including Baja California, Sonora, Durango, Chihuahua, and Sinaloa states. Should Guzman's arrest effectively create opportunities for rivals to pursue territorial gains at the expense of the Sinaloa Federation, Stratfor would expect to see an increase in inter-cartel violence on some scale, as well as a military response to contain or even preempt possible violence, in any area of the aforementioned states.

Ex-Microsoft manager is looking to create the first major marijuana brand for distribution in the United States.  Metaphorically what Marlboro is for tobacco, shivelys group seeks to create a brand label for midgrade mexican marijuana.  Chapo's ouster as head of the Sinaloa cartel was called for in the ACA, along with the required upgrades of all government software to the new version of windows.  You had to pass it to see what was in it.

they just did that, they fractionally reserved sinoloa so that shit turns to white powder in sing sing bigtime.

With the biggest growth sector of US economy being its "behind bars" population maybe the sinoloa king is making a bet that by getting inside the "behind bars" crowd he will make sure white powder sells faster than I-phones in that exponentially growing population.

The day they put the bankstas behind bars that should become the hottest growth segment of the US economy.

Good long term thinking EL Chapo!

"They're the ones responsible for decades of death and destruction."

Yes and no. The gun and badge thugs are the ones that 'followed orders' and actually prosecuted a war against the American people.

Article 3, Section 3 of the Constitution:

Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.

I'll be witness one. Anyone else want to be number two?

"Ignorance of the Constitution and "following orders" is not a viable defense."

HSBC to announce bonuses totaling $4 billion: report

 

Obama, Holder let another big bank off the hook

 

snip

We already knew that Wall Street banks were too big to fail. But are they also too big for the Obama administration to prosecute?

On Tuesday, the government announced it wouldn’t charge HSBC, the British-based megabank accused of enabling money laundering by Mexican drug cartels, among other crimes. Instead, it’ll require HSBC pay a fine of roughly $1.9 billion and improve its compliance measures. That’s the largest fine ever for such a case, but as The Guardian’s Nils Pratleynoted, it represents about four weeks’ worth of pre-tax profits for the banking behemoth, which made almost $22 billion last year.

HSBC allowed Mexican drug cartels to launder dirty money through the U.S. financial system, and worked with Saudi Arabian banks linked to terror groups. At times, the drug traffickers deposited hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash, in a single day, into just one account—using boxes specifically designed to slide neatly under HSBC’s teller windows. And the bank ignored warnings from regulators to beef up its controls, a Senate report released in July found.

 

Outrageous HSBC Settlement Proves the Drug War is a Joke

the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist:

 

Mr. Guzmán was arrested with one other man, Mexican officials said. Some reports said that the authorities also found a woman in the apartment and photos of the room show two pink children’s suitcases on a bed, suggesting Mr. Guzmán was with his wife and twin 2-year-old daughters who were born in Los Angeles County. But American officials said they were surprised by what was not there: a cache of weapons. Not a single shot was fired.

Local residents cast doubt on the operation for that exact reason. “Everyone thinks it was a negotiated capture,” said one local business leader.

That it happened just a few days after President Obama visited Mexico, during a week when official figures showed the economy grew by only 1.1 percent, has only added to the skepticism. Even after photos and forensic tests, many here, young and old, don’t believe that the man with the mustache trotted out for the cameras on Saturday — and now confined to a high-security Mexican prison, officials said — is really the one they call Chapo.

“It’s a fantasy,” said Ofelia Aguilar, 52, walking through a shantytown called Santa Monica, still filling up with families who have been forced to flee the lawlessness of the Sinaloan countryside where Mr. Guzmán grew up. “It has to be someone else. I just don’t believe it.”

"I couldn't have gotten so stinking rich without George Bush, George Bush Jr., Ronald Reagan, even El Presidente Obama, none of them have the cajones to stand up to all the big money that wants to keep this stuff illegal. From the bottom of my heart, I want to say, Gracias amigos, I owe my whole empire to you." - Sincerely, Chapo

What I'd really like is to go to the pharmacy on the corner and buy my dope. Instead I have no other choice than to give my cash to CIA connected murderous assholes. But I'll never stop chasing my last high.

This is hilarious...the govnts (US & Mexico) created the cartels by making drugs illegal in the first place. The only way to stop the cartels is to remove their power....LEGALIZATION! Is the only answer.
