8 homicide PER DAY quota: Barrio Azteca Sicario: El Paso gang kills for Cartel in Juarez
from Al Profit Podcast · host Al Profit
Jesus Ernesto Chavez aka "El Camello" which in English means "the Pusher".El Camello is in a U.S. Federal prison today, perhaps for life, perhaps not, as he, like most high level Narcos, testified against others as part of his guilty plea. Chávez added that he controlled a group of hit squads that were responsible for killing more than 2,000 people in Juárez in a war between the Vicente Carillo Fuentes and Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán's Sinaloa Cartel. What's disturbing to know, with possible ramifications for the immediate future of America, is that El Camello was an El Paso, Texas gang member, not some crazed killer from a third world country, and he had already served a five year prison term in Louisiana for smuggling years ago. His gang is known as Barrio Azteca, formed in the Texas prison system in 1986 for guys that fell out of El Paso- and the Barrio Azteca, just like the Logan Heights gangs from San Diego did for the Arellano Felix brothers in Tijuana- became part of the the Juarez Sicario system. In San Diego-Tijuana- the American guys were probably responsible for executing a Catholic Cardinal. Let that sink in. Unlike in the days of Colombians being the narco powerhouse, with Mexico sharing a common border, and increasingly common culture in the Southwest, many of the low paid and bloodthirsty young sicarios are born and raised in the U.S.A.
