| The chicago Twins who betrayed Chapo sentenced to 14 years Posted: 27 Jan 2015 10:21 PM PST Republished by Lucio from The Chicago Tribune written by Jason Meisner  Lucio's note:Minutes ago, the Flores twins were sentenced to 14 years eachSecurity at sentencing in the federal courtroom in Chicago was tight, extra security checks outside courtroom doors and a bomb-sniffing dog sweeping for explosives. For their security, neither of the twins' attorneys was named in court. Stated Judge Castillo when handing down the sentence; "Even though I am not going to sentence you to life, you are leaving here with a life sentence. Each time you start your car (when they are released), you are going to be wondering, is it going to start, or will it explode." Prosecutors had requested a sentence of 10 years. Noting, because of the twins' cooperation they were able to issue indictments of Guzman and more than 50 others. (3 new names were added today) Castillo said the twins were the most significant traffickers ever in his court. Adding he had never seen drug traffickers at the height of their power and wealth, come forward to offer to assist the government and provide information, as the Flores brothers had. And that day of freedom is much sooner than people think. 14 years, with 6 years served, and 2 years factored in for "good behavior, 54 days each year is the max allowed, these deductions mean the brothers could be released in 6 years. In the first video, the federal prosecutor talks about the case and sentencing, including the cooperation by the brothers, and the wiretapping of their conversations with Chapo. Today was the first public appearance of the brothers in 6 years.The American born twins appeared very uneasy walking to the podium to speak. "I'm ashamed. I'm embarrassed. I'm regretful," Margarito said. "I've put my family in harm's way, and I will never forgive myself, there is no excuse." Pedro seemed on the verge of breaking down as he said, "I wanted to thank the United States (and federal agents) ... for allowing the opportunity not to spend my life in prison."[Lucio] Tribune article: For a couple of drug dealers from Chicago's West Side, twin brothers Pedro and Margarito Flores had hit the big time by November 2008, negotiating a heroin deal over the phone in Mexico with none other than Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the notorious Sinaloa cartel boss who at the time was the most wanted man in the world.  What Guzman couldn't have fathomed was that U.S. federal agents were listening in on the calls that night. The heroin had been picked up in Chicago by an undercover officer posing as a courier. The Flores brothers had flipped.
Six years after they became arguably the most important informants in the U.S. government's decades long war on drugs, Pedro and Margarito Flores will make their first court appearance Tuesday for their sentencing at the federal courthouse in Chicago amid heightened security. Prosecutors plan to ask U.S. District Chief Judge Ruben Castillo for as little as 10 years behind bars for the twins, who pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy in 2012 and have been in the witness protection program. It's an extraordinary break from what almost certainly would have been a life sentence given the staggering amount of drugs and money the Flores brothers helped smuggle — at least 71 tons of cocaine and heroin and nearly $2 billion in cash, according to one government estimate. Prosecutors said in court papers the light sentence was earned because of the danger the twins put themselves in through undercover work that eventually led to indictments against Guzman, his top Sinaloa cartel leaders, and dozens of other drug wholesalers and middlemen from Chicago to Mexico. Born and raised in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood, the 34-year-old twins have been held in secret locations for more than six years. Their immediate family members were given new identities and set up with $300,000 to pay for living expenses for the foreseeable future. Even when they are released from custody, the brothers' lives will never be the same, prosecutors said. "As two of the most well-known cooperating witnesses in the country, the Flores brothers (and their families) will live the rest of their lives in danger of being killed in retribution," prosecutors wrote. "The barbarism of the cartels is legend, with a special place reserved for those who cooperate." The concerns over possible attempts at retribution extend to the brothers' Chicago attorney, whose identity has been kept secret for safety reasons in an extraordinary step. It's unclear whether the attorney will even be in court Tuesday for the sentencing. Extra metal detectors and bomb-sniffing dogs are expected to add another layer of security at the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse. The Flores brothers' cooperation has already had real repercussions. Shortly after word got out that the brothers were in DEA custody, their father, Margarito Flores Sr., returned to Mexico against his sons' wishes and despite stern warnings from their government handlers, according to prosecutors. Within days, the father was kidnapped and presumed to be murdered, the filing said. A note found at the scene of the kidnapping said his sons were next. Some of the brothers' double-dealing was the stuff of movies. The Flores brothers met with cartel leaders in mountaintop compounds, captured conversations with Guzman's lieutenants with a voice recorder hidden in a coat pocket and even helped prosecutors by cutting deals with a rival faction of the cartel that would have meant certain death if discovered by either side, court records show. "It was incredibly daring," said Joseph Lopez, a Chicago attorney who has represented many cartel clients. "These guys were allegedly able to get Chapo on tape talking about heroin. He trusted them that much." The Flores brothers' sentencing marks the end of one of the more remarkable stories of Chicago's cut-throat drug underworld, where in a few short years the twins rose through the ranks of the Latin Kings street gang to eventually run a drug distribution ring that shipped thousands of pounds of narcotics to wholesale customers in New York, Washington, Cincinnati and other cities. By the time they flipped in 2008 and agreed to dismantle their operation, the twins had reached "the highest echelons of the cartel world," prosecutors said. They built their mini-empire using a system of couriers and henchmen whom they trusted to drive loads in vehicles outfitted with secret compartments and hydraulic trap doors, court records show. The drugs were often picked up in broad daylight, in supermarket parking lots and outside of South Loop dollar stores, and kept in innocuous-looking stash houses from Chicago to Aurora. Through it all, the Floreses kept a low profile. Their associates mostly had clean records, and they were not known for the rampant violence that many associate with street-level dealing. Their main supplier was Guzman, whose vast operations included a fleet of 747 jets that had all the seats removed, the brothers said in sworn statements to a federal grand jury. According to their statements, Guzman would load the planes with clothes and other goods and fly bogus "humanitarian" missions to South America. On the return trip to Mexico City, the brothers said, the planes would be packed with as much as 12,000 kilograms — about 14 tons — of cocaine that was unloaded and driven out of the airport with the help of corrupt officials. The brothers said Guzman's various lieutenants helped the cartel coordinate shipments of cocaine from Colombia to Mexico using submarines, speedboats and amphibious vessels to avoid law enforcement at sea. In 2007, the brothers agreed to invest $600,000 with Alfredo Vasquez-Hernandez, Guzman's boyhood friend, to open a furniture exporting company that would act as a front to ship cocaine by rail, with loads hidden behind false walls in the boxcars, according to the statements. Vasquez-Hernandez, a trusted lieutenant of El Chapo and one of the main contacts between the cartel and the Flores twins, pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy and was sentenced in November to 22 years in prison. Their testimony led to sweeping indictments in 2009 against 54 defendants, including Guzman, who remained a fugitive until his sensational arrest in Mexico last February. It's unclear whether he'll ever be extradited to face charges in the U.S., where he is also under indictment in New York and Texas. The Floreses' cooperation also led to the flipping of another key witness, Sinaloa underboss Vincente Zambada-Niebla, who in 2013 secretly pleaded guilty to acting as the key coordinator of a billion-dollar cocaine and heroin operation on behalf of a faction of the cartel run by his father, Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada. Zambada-Niebla is awaiting sentencing. At the same time they were cooperating against the cartel, the Flores twins also assisted in the dismantling of their organization in 2009, creating a highly unusual situation where the bosses were cooperating against underlings. The arrests occurred after the Floreses were flown back to the U.S. by the Drug Enforcement Administration and instructed to set up a series of phony transactions to catch the couriers in the act. "They set up their own customers," Lopez said. As those cases moved forward, many defense attorneys questioned why the government allowed the twins to continue to import massive amounts of narcotics into the U.S. while their cooperation was ongoing. At least one shipment — a 276-kilogram load of cocaine that was part of a deal with Vasquez-Hernandez — made it to Chicago and was distributed on the streets without the knowledge of federal investigators. The brothers later told prosecutors they needed the proceeds from the sale to avoid falling behind on payments to the cartel, which would have made their continued cooperation impossible, court records show. There were also questions of whether the feds were willing to look the other way on alleged violence committed by the Flores brothers, including two killings. One involved the cartel-related slaying of Guadalupe Ledesma in Mexico. A cooperating witness had told investigators the Flores brothers were "directly responsible" for the killing, prosecutors said. That information was never verified, however, and several others were eventually convicted of murder in Mexico without implicating the brothers. Meanwhile, there were accusations that the Flores twins were still accumulating wealth while they were cooperating. In court papers, prosecutors acknowledged that some of their flamboyant purchases were "wholly inappropriate" for informants living in protective custody, including a Bentley that was given to Pedro Flores' wife as a gift. There were rumors the brothers had buried millions of dollars in drug proceeds in backyards in Chicago and other locations. In all, the government seized more than $4 million in drug proceeds from the Flores twins, and prosecutors wrote in a court filing that after an exhaustive investigation they do "not believe that the Flores brothers are hiding assets."

| Frenchwoman freed from Mexico jail sues former president calderon and others for 36M Posted: 27 Jan 2015 10:09 AM PST Republished by lucio from Associated Press  Jose Patino Hurtado, Cassez's attorney in Mexico, told Noticias MVS radio that the civil suit filed on Friday seeks $36 million for suffering and "moral damage." The lawsuit seeks "above all to vindicate Florence Cassez, which is the most important thing," Patino said in an interview with Noticias MVS host Carmen Aristegui. It names ex-President Felipe Calderon, former Public Safety Secretary Genaro Garcia Luna and other officials, as well as the Televisa TV network and journalists including the prominent anchor Carlos Loret de Mola. A Televisa spokesman said the company had no immediate comment. Calderon called the lawsuit "absurd" in an interview with journalist Joaquin Lopez Doriga on Radio Formula. Cassez was arrested in 2005 and sentenced to 60 years on charges of aiding a kidnapping ring allegedly led by her Mexican boyfriend, in a case that soured relations between Paris and Mexico City. She acknowledged living with the boyfriend at a ranch where kidnap victims were being held, but professed her innocence, saying she was unaware of their presence. One victim identified her as a kidnapper, but by voice only rather than by sight. In January 2013 the Supreme Court overturned Cassez's conviction due to procedural and rights violations. A day after Cassez was arrested, police had forced her to take part in a staged raid on the ranch purportedly to rescue hostages and arrest suspects. It was covered by the media and broadcast on television. "They knew the damage they would cause, and they prefabricated everything," Patino Hurtado said Monday. After Cassez's release, the Interior Department said it would instruct Federal Police to read suspects their rights when they are detained. She returned to a hero's welcome in France, but many in Mexico were indignant that a woman they believed to be a kidnapper had gone free.  | ||||||||
| Torture and Corruption in the Municipal Police Posted: 27 Jan 2015 11:59 AM PST Translated for Borderland Beat from a Zetatijuana Special Report by Otis B Fly-Wheel  Official documents that were sent anonymously to ZETA, carry accounts of confessions given by corrupt Municipal Police. Dishonest, confessing to serving cells of criminal organizations, addicted to drugs and or alcoholism , having problems with depression and authority. Others have been narco-traffickers, or have criminal records ( antecedents ) in the USA, whilst others move and dispose of bodies for criminals. The cases are from the commission for police improvement in Tijuana, the secretary Alejandro Lares Valladares, but there are no results, the majority of these police men are still working for the corporation. The sins confessed by Municipal police agents in Tijuana , merited a procedure to dismiss them from the Police, but most of the 154 agents that failed the examinations of evaluation and confidence are still working to " serve " the public. The categories of offenses confessed are :
One more is for torturing detainees to gain false confessions, collection of extortion , participating in robberies , taking drugs against police policy , not having the required education and falsifying entry certificates to enter the Tijuana police force. Of the 154 Municipal Policeman , whose names are in the Commission of Police Development, some from the year 2013 , because they were not officially approved by the center for evaluation and control of confidence ( C3). They do not meet the requirements set forth in the applicable fields, it says in the reports where the Secretariat of Public Safety of the state suggests sending those dossiers to the respective committees and request the beginning of the procedure of definitive separation. But the commission for Police improvement, head of Secretary of public security ,Alejandro Lares Valladares , has not complied with his work. ZETA could not confirm this ,that he had access to copies of the report in an anonymous manner , where the authenticity of the reports could be corroborated for this department with the implicated authorities. With the names in hand, the first that seek to corroborate , that the police were still on the payroll of the city of Tijuana, which are on the official web page of the Municipal Government , which was last updated on 31st of October last year. Until this date , the policemen in question were still in the employment of the corporation. They have not come forward with the established requisites in law to carry on as agents for the police , but here they are. Despite all this , Secretary Lares meanwhile helped to get released from prison , a policeman that abused a woman , and another that shot in the back an unarmed criminal while he ran , also the director Patricia Sida declared publicly that the videos where they show police abusing their authority , cannot be considered proof. Moving bodies and trafficking drugs in Tijuana
A symbolic case of impunity , at present is the Secretariat of Municipal Public Safety (SSPM) of Tijuana and its lack of will, to remove the official Arnoldo Ismael Garay Cordove , agent since 2006 and qualified by C3 as "person of low judgement "who allows criminals to go free and is permissive. In February of 2013 , the enormous figure of the obese policeman occupied the pages of the local news and media outlets, when the then Municipal secretary of public security , Alberta Capella, announced that they were dismissing Garay because , according to declarations of two detainees, Israel Osuna and Frederico Hamo , and the local information in the cell phone of an agent, gives information on the movements of the police to organizedcriminals in exchange for money , also they received money to detain their criminal competitors. It was announced that the police were put at the disposition of the Federal Public Ministry , as presumably responsible to a criminal organization. But the final result , was that he was only suspended for four months. In his last interrogation , Garay Cordova confessed that in these times of hardship , he received a call from a friend , who offered him 800 dollars a week to work for him and said : Your unique work , is to go and take away dead bodies , hide them in vans , and discard them in batches in unpopulated and unfrequented places. He did so because he needed the money , his suspension was justified. He said of this " friend " I cant remember his name ,but that he only offers employment to current or suspended policemen and ex soldiers., With these conditions the agent Garay continues to work for the Municipals Jose Juan Pedraza Sanchez , is another whose case for removal throws strange and worrying information into the pot. According to C3, this agent joined the Municipal police in Tijuana in 2005, he has antecedents for robbery and violence in 2008, he was imprisoned for crimes in Tijuana prison in 2006 despite being a policeman , he also has a process against him in an administrative tribunal against the determination of the Commission of police development , that started in November 2013.Additionally there is the case of Misael Delgadillo Ornelas , a policeman since 2013, before joining the police he was known as a drug dealer from the ages of 17-23, five years before his police exam , he was detained for having a bag of Marijuana filed with the Public Prosecutors office , which with the help of his father he was released. His close circle of friends continue to be drug dealers. Admitting to being corrupt
According to the C3 evaluation of Marcos Plascencia Perez , uniformed since 2006 , his alcohol consumption impaired his ability to carry out his job , but he continues to make false arrests , has met with criminals to receive payment for services , obtaining on one occasion 2000 pesos a week , and on other occasions 4000 dollars. Jorge Carlos Vital Gonzalez , a badge holder since 1996, had been a commissioned sub commander, and in his interview with C3 he accepted that on repeated occasions he had received 50,000 dollars to let criminals go, or to free drunk drivers. Further to this , its known that he stole money and propertyfrom houses that he entered as part of a tactical police team. For his part Jesus Cervantes Perez , an agent since 2005 , confessed that he received 50 to 100 dollars each time he left narco traffickers go free, and other amounts of pesos when he frees citizens that commit civil not criminal acts. Gabriela Chavez Sandoval , designated police woman since the end of 2011 , admitted that until a month before her C3 exam, that she was receiving money for staying quiet , when they freed a criminal delegation in San Antonio del los Buenos , and that she had received money or food. Jesus Luis Gonzalez Figueroa started in the police in 2012 , he is a commercial police officer and during his confidence examination , he said he was selling stolen cell phones since 2007 , also that between the ages of 17 and 20 he faked certificates with the help of a high school teacher. Carlos Pina Cardenas has been a policeman since 2003 , and is diagnosed as " violating guidelines and regulations , misuses his position , while damaging and putting at risk the institution. However , the agent launched an amparo ( order of protection ) in December of 2014 before the second district court of amparo, in relation to the incident leading to his suspension. His history is that in October 2013 he injured his cheek with his own handgun , as he was chatting with another police officer who was not on duty at the time, he was not breath tested at the time , In October of 2014 he was arrested and released because he saw and allowed his partner to injure a detainee and plant a weapon on him for not agreeing to pay extortion. According to the C3 evaluation , Enrique Guadalupe Enriquez Cruz , a policeman since 1993 , currently assigned to fixed points , he must not remain because he accepts bribes from motorists, planting weapons on detainees , he also works as an unofficial bodyguard for a colleague who was engaged in criminal activity and owns a security company even he is prohibited by law to do so. TorturersJuan Carlos Arenas Tapia , joined in 2006 , he was not considered competent by C3 , in his interview he admitted that he didn't want to battle delinquents who had collaborated to have him arrested but he choked them until they were unconscious , it was said " he has difficulty analyzingthe impact of his actions " , and that he lacks conscience and is frustrated with his police career. Despite the fact that he just joined in 2013 Mariane Guadalupe Gutierrez Perez has trouble controlling her anger. According to the C3 , she is " lacking judgement , behaving with a violent attitude due to frustration". She admitted assaulting detainees. Cristian Eduardo Felix Sereno , who is a commissioned supervisor in the police since 2007, reported as being , not in control of his impulses , with a weakened capacity for judgement , but is skilful at loss of memory when submitting offenders. Rene Jesus Burgos Avila , a policeman since 2007 with an appeal filed with an Administrative Court in August 2013 against the Police Development Committee, the C3 exam detected his impulsive traits , acknowledged to having started a shootout , and he explained that two months before the evaluation , to being part of Group Intelligence , and used not so legal methods when interrogating such as blindfolding , shouting , and suffocating with a plastic bag , he has been accused of causing qualified injuries and abuse of authority. Rodrigo Gallado Alvarez , member of the SSPM which he left in 2002, also diagnosed as impulsive , because he uses physical force when faced with adversity , and has left unconscious on several occasions, detainees, and sees it as an everyday aspect of his work. Terrorizing to prevent accusationOn the 17th of September 2014 , a Municipal official , Hector Herrera Hernandez , caused the death of Maria Elena Perez Cortez , 64 years of age. the Municipal Police said that a uniformed patrolman had caused the death, informed the Deputy Attorney General in Tijuana Gilberto Cota Alanis. The agent had reversed for 13 meters, according to testimony, without sirens. The mayor Jorge Astiazaran and his secretary Alejandro Lares assured , they had been to the place of the accident , and that the policeman responsible had been using sirens and lights. The police code for using sirens, the Ministerial Police informed that they had interviewed the driver of the patrol , and also had taken testimony from witnesses, their testimony references him moving backward at speed , and hit the lady who had stepped out to cross the street, commented Cota Alanis in a press conference. From the start , Raul , one of the sons of the lady that lost her life , accused the authorities of changing their version of events, but one of their neighbours had recorded a video of the incident , which allegedly would demonstrate the Police tampering with the scene intentionally , while ignoring the injured lady on the floor. The problem was that the agents, once they learned of the video , and that it would be handed over to the police complaints authorities, uniformed elements presumably of GOES ( Special Operations Group ) , " visited" the neighbor and the video suspiciously went missing. On the 29th of September , without a warrant they entered his home, and then presented him before the PGR with drugs , despite the fact that witnesses to the search said that the Police left the house without finding anything suspicious. Agents from GOES returned on the 26th of November, when after refusing to cooperate with authorities, he was tortured by them. They suffocated him on six occasions with a plastic bag, they gave him electric shocks to the chest, asked for money to leave him alone , and accused him of selling drugs. At the end , neither the video was produced , or the officers involved identified , the authorities forgot all about him and his complaints.
Antecedents in United States of AmericaSalvador Mendoza Madrid has been a Policeman since 2007 , a commander instructor of the ICAP , however in his most recent past , when the Secretary for State Public Safety ( SSPE ) corroborated his antecedents with United States authority , according to the FBI, was a convicted thief in 1992 , he was detained in prison in Hanford California , and was deported.

Juan Carlos Puentes , a policeman from Tijuana since 2006 , was accused of making false arrests in 2011 , however for C3 the biggest problem was that according to the FBI in February of 2013 he was arrested in San Diego under the charges of importing Heroin , Cocaine , Marijuana and Hashish.

The CounterfeitersThe worst cases , according to sources in the SSPM , are the agents who are counterfeiters , who despite the obvious commission of a crime , have been excused by current Secretary Alejandro Lares Valladares. A good example is the case of Omar Green de la Cerda, suspended in April 2014 , for cheating in exams at Humanitas University where he studied law, in August 2014 it became public that he was investigated along with 30 other officers for having given false documents to enter.
