this last trip down to BOLA we were told by doc that they have arrested some of the gang that was responsible for the car jackings and shootings along the toll road. on the way home we picked up a mexican paper and right on the front page were a pic of three of the thugs responsible. our friend couldnt pick out one of the guys as the one who shot him but i say hang them all and let god sort them out. allso we were told that they were about to make an arrest in the shooting of rachel and it involved a mexican soldier and a civilian who knew they were making a run north with a large amount of money in there vehicle.:coolup:

Unfortunately there will be no hangings. Mexico does not have a death penalty. In fact, I do not believe there is a "life without parole" sentence. It may have changed, but I seem to recall the maximum penalty as being 40 years.

I've heard that the death sentence is in place for treason in Mexico.

Actually, so much "justice" is dispenced throughout Mexico without the hinderance of a judge, it is difficult to say what rules apply and when.

I think you are referring to "ajuste de cuentas" or "adjustment of accounts".:lol:
