In my neighborhood there was an attempted burglary a few nights ago, the police were called and they attempted to pull over the suspects' vehicle, the suspects just kept driving and went straight home. The police claimed that they had no right to pursue them on to private property and there was nothing further that could be done. I only mention this because it seems like a strategy that could be used to avoid police shakedowns, don't pull over, just drive on home, once you hit your driveway they apparently can't touch you.

Glad you asked that...I didnt want to sound like a goat 666 by asking. Very hard to miss that money as said......

The police have the right to pursue while in pursuit and they are required to do so (they can't arrive later and enter the home without being in pursuit or without multiple witness testimony.

Clearly, you can see that the police failed to pursue, possibly for other reasons, or by agreement. From the description, this is conspiracy to commit a crime, collaboration, failure to perform, lying, obstruction etc... This is a municipal crime that must be pursued by escalation to federal or higher court naming the cops as conspirators. It should also be reported to the newspaper and TV as well. As you can see one must ask names, copy them down, take a photo of people, and put peer pressure on cops to do their job or they won't. The cops likely went back for their cut, which would be any amount of money, as little as 20 pesos.

Let me add this...


Whenever we go thru any check point, I have all my documents, passports, whatever...in my hand. I wouldn't be trusting enough to leaving stuff in the car during a inspection......much less on the hood of my car.

In the USA...the cops are NOT allowed to handle your wallet unless you are indeed under arrest. You must pull out you DL and hand it over to the officer. I am not sure if it's the same in Mexico.

Thanks FU How’s things down at Las Gravitas where I understand you’ve been possibly sighted?

So here's a little follow up. I met with the Commandante for Two Hours on the 2oth. He myself four lieutenants two captains sat down for a few hours and looked at photographs for a while when and the I asked him if the had a Roster who worked Patrol in Primo Tapia the night of the incident,
Sure enough they had one.
They hooked up the Lap-top to the 52" bbig screen and I positively indentified both men.
Within 30 minutes the Debnuncias were typed {That’s terminiation paperss for those les inclined to udnderstand the Mexican legal system) and by 1500 hours yesterday these two yahoos were out of a job. Nope no paid holiday, no administrative leave with pay while Office of internal affairs takes up to a year to find just cause in upholding the termination, No CCPOA mouthpiece like me arguing their point. Just see you later Oh and enjoy old Mexicans money what’s left of it.

So Fu when we going to get together down at Pescadores so I can give you that Knuckle sandwich you've been so badly aching for?

Also I heard The Footprinters is looking for a few good spineless men to join up have you given it any thought?
Maybe you can make your way up to V.P. like I did.
When that day finally comes ask Harry if he can show that Photo he embellishes so much where he in the middle of Benjamin and Ramon Arreallano drinking a beer.

All I remember was how he said they were always very generous to the organization.
How many people did they kill?

I call BS. "Denuncias" just means complaint. Nobody was fired because a fat, drunk, pocho cannot count his money. You didn't even mention all this until after the Nomads jumped all over you for PWS. (Posting While Drunk.)
