Zeta

Note: Zeta is giving us higher numbers : Pasted Translation. Thought you might be interested in who is shooting who.
The executors
"In the middle of the year, in Baja California, 1,731 homicides are already counted. The number has already surpassed the total number of executions in the State committed throughout 2014, all of 2015, and is close to exceeding those of 2016. Faced with the blood struggle, the Coordination Group decided, as in previous years, to focus efforts on capturing Leaders of drug trafficking cells, who in their insane war for the narcomenudeo points, execute without ceasing. The executors are three of "The Achilles" and two of "Los Chompas" of the Sinaloa Cartel; Two of the "Pilots" of the CAF; And three from the CJNG. Only one has an arrest warrantWith 165 murders in Tijuana and 197 murders in Baja California, May was listed as the bloodiest month in the border city. Then June, with 206 executions across the state, became the most violent statewide. In that context, during the last six weeks, the State Secretary of Public Security, Daniel de la Rosa Anaya, has repeated in speeches and interviews that the fact that until July 14 there were 1,071 executed in BC and 824 only in Tijuana, Does not mean that there are thousands of assassins. The criminal reality is that they are few and belong to three cartels, the ones that are killing in this federative entity.
De la Rosa has made an effort to point out that those responsible are barely a dozen traffickers and that their hitmen are not many more. He speaks about 60, but eight account for more victims.
From the Coordination Group, a member of the municipal order explained that the hitmen seem numerous because when they stop or kill them, they supply them quickly. "For recent examples, we are realizing that the life of a killer is not very long", and depends on the information you have.
He explained that the offender - started as a thief and a drug dealer - ordered a series of murders in which the bully has no idea who the victim, or their environment, or relationships, or role, who or what criminal group the person represents; Only give the description and location of the person to kill. Sometimes they even provide him with a weapon that he has to return.
"For the fourth or sixth homicide the sicario begins to realize what their boss's intentions are with the killings and then they order his death, and they replace him," ZETA was informed.
Some of these thugs are "independent" men and women who commit homicides for the highest bidder, today for a cartel and tomorrow for their competitor. In fact, as in previous years, to date it is investigated if there is any criminal who is renting weapons for the various cartels to execute; including weapons that have been stolen from officers of this and other states.
Faced with the surge of blood, the Coordination Group decided to concentrate its search on the perpetrators of the murders. The drug trafficking cell leaders of the Sinaloa cartels, Arellano Felix (CAF) and Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG). Since early June, they have requested collaboration from the federal authorities, who responded negatively, despite the fact that these men are engaged in federal drug trafficking offenses, and as evidence, cargoes of kilograms, liters and / or tons of marijuana, cocaine and heroin which have been constantly ensured in the city.

"It is presumed innocent, as long as it does not declare its responsibility by the judicial authority. Art.13, CNPP "
"It is presumed innocent, as long as it does not declare its responsibility by the judicial authority. Art.13, CNPP "
They argued that they can not collaborate in their search, since the State Attorney General's Office (PGJE) has also failed, since they also have no warrants for homicide or narco-trafficking, despite being the main traffickers and cell leaders in Baja California . "But no one accuses them or says of committing crimes directly, ordering such a death," is the justification from the local prosecutor's office, where they assert that what most criminals say is that they know that the leader of the cell is so-and-so .
Thus, since June, the Federal Government has left all the work to the local authorities, the responsibility remained for the operative forces of Baja California, state and municipal police - supported by the Army in the Bases of Operations - and the challenge is to surprise the leaders of the criminal groups in flagrancy in order to apprehend them.
It is not known if the next arrival in the State of the Secretary of the Interior, Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong, will change this provision of the administration peñista, but it is doubtful, especially after his statements the last week of June in the framework of the Fourth National Meeting of Legislative Harmonization of the Commissions for Gender Equality, the Mechanisms for the Advancement of Women and the Superior Courts of Justice in the Federal Entities .
The official said that the rise in homicide was due to deficiencies in the police and local procuratorates, and said that most of the deaths were related to crimes of common law. In the case of Baja California, 80 percent related to narcomenudeo, a crime that the Federation transferred to the State since August 29, 2012 without, passing budget for combat.

Implementers: Ten top priority ... and recycled targets
At this time, the most wanted men are the same subjects that for several years have been identified by the Coordination Group as drug trafficking leaders in Baja California, some of whom have even been arrested and released. These are nine men who have no warrant for arrest, and one more, the only one in which the Federation showed interest because it has an arrest warrant, issued within the old system.
According to the intelligence reports of the Coordination Group Baja California, most of the security houses of these alleged offenders are in private fractions, making it difficult to enter and surprise them in flagrant criminal acts.

In addition to the ringleaders, the operational forces of the State Security Council have in their priority lists the material perpetrators they are beginning to identify, however, it is a difficult task because of the short life span their criminal bosses are giving them .
