One of the saddest things I have heard in a long time.

Thankfully they got them. Maybe the road will be a little safer for a while.I like how quickly confessions are extracted once the suspects are apprehended.
Here's another link to the story.

sad- travellers' worst nightmare

Yeah, quickest ballistic results I've ever heard of in Mexico. This was the first I'd heard that the victims were shot first.

Insert Captain Renault's line from Casablanca here..............

Maybe; suspiciously efficient police work. Just as likely they're scapegoats to satisfy international opinion. :rolleyes:


yeah, clever how they compiled all those laptops, cellphones,electronics, police uniforms,weapons,ammo, masks, etc....just what do you folks want....?

Gang of 5, not related to cartels... quick, efficient police work...

Sacrificial idiots? whatever. Another good reason not to go to Mexico. I am vacationing in Hawaii this year.

Not really. But then, the average tourist believes MX is a dangerous place. I, personally, wouldn't be hanging in Sinaloa but that's me. This crime could happen anywhere including The Baja. Low level thugs preying on tourists.

Yeah Hawaii is great and in the United States. No place like home.

Good idea! I'll just load up my dog and camp stuff, and drive there!

The US used to get rapid confessions at Gitmo until Obama stopped the necessary tatics.
