Bad ju-ju happening in Mexicali right now
Right now there is an emergency meeting going on in Mexicali between the state Secretary General and the Secretary of Public Security. Here is the
Reader's digest version of what is going down.
Last Sunday, General Sergio Aponte Polito, who heads the infantry division in Baja that is cleaning out the cartels, was having a dinner with retired
Major Justo Buenaventura Jaimes Villarreal, who is now the civilian head of the State Preventative Police. They were in the Las Palmas restaurant in
Mexicali. During the dinner, one of the two pulled his pistol and fired a shot into the ceiling.
At first Jaimes Villarreal accused General Ploito of firing the shot. General Polito has accused Jaimes Villarreal.
Now, General Polito is worshipped like a saint in Baja as the only guy with the huevos to go after the cartels. On the other hand, many people think
the State Proventative Police are all tied-in with the cartels. So, the chismes (rumors) are that it looks like there is some kind of major power play
going on, with the cartels trying to knock General Polito off his pedestal and get him out of the way.
There is supposed to be some kind of a press release today after this emergency meeting. Everybody is on pins and needles waiting to see on whose side
the state Secretary General and the Secretary of Public Security land.
Oh, for Pescadero and Skeet, I think they were eating fish tacos.

There are new story lines popping up every few minutes now. The governor of Baja, José Guadalupe Osuna Millán, says he does not have precise
information on the incident and is going to meet with General Polito this afternoon and get more details on what really happened.

The readers comments to this article are very interesting:
"SI con esa prepotencia actuan los altos mandos, que ejemplo les da a sus mandos más abajo? y a sus gatos? que jodido estamos ¡¡¡"
If the high level authorities can act with such arrogance, what kind of an example does that give to the subordinates? and their people? We are
totally flocked!!!
"Saquen a ese ####o de buenaventura de ahi... que no sirve para nada solo para mandarnos para sus cosas personales... no tiene los suficientes para
hacer un buen director..."
Get rid of that SOB Buenaventura...he's useless, only good for sending us on personal errands for himself...he hasn't got the right stuff to be a
good director..

fulano, Shooting holes in the ceiling is better than shooting holes in people. You can patch the holes with soup can lids. Give him
a shotgun, he'll be able to let the rain in.

The only that needs
to worry is Polito, I expect him to be leaving Baja very soon.

al fin, cae Justo Buenaventura
The head of the State Preventative Police, Major Justo Buenaventura Jaimes Villarreal, has been handed his burro. His replacement is Juan Miguel
Guillén Gutiérrez.
Polito won. Baja California won.
