3 decapitated bodies found near Tijuana
3 decapitated bodies found near Tijuana
TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) — Three decapitated bodies were found Tuesday in an empty lot on the eastern outskirts of Tijuana, the Mexican attorney general's
office said.
The killings were the latest in a wave of mostly drug-related violence that has swept Mexico, much of it near the U.S. border. Drug cartels have
turned to decapitating their victims as a way to intimidate rivals.
Officials said the bodies had messages written on their backs in permanent marker saying they worked for "the weakened 'engineer,'" a nickname for
Francisco Sanchez Arellano, a top lieutenant in Tijuana's powerful Arellano Felix drug cartel.
The killings were apparently carried out by a rival group.
Witnesses said the bodies were left near a trash heap and had their hands tied behind their backs. The heads were found nearby, and had been burned.
Baja California state prosecutor Rommel Moreno Manjarrez told the newspaper La Frontera that the murders likely resulted from a power struggle within
the Arellano Felix cartel following the arrest last week of one of operation's key gunmen at a Tijuana casino.
Another decapitated body and a man who had been stabbed to death were found Monday on the outskirts of Tijuana.
President Felipe Calderon is waging nationwide battle to take back territory controlled by some of the world's most powerful drug gangs. But the
cartels have responded with unprecedented violence, especially along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Business section? The drug cartel business perhaps.
The advice I am about to give you is worth what you are paying for it.

According to:

The names of the three decapitated men are: Rubén Romero Fierro
Hebert García Isidro and Luis Gerardo Elizaga Morales
Their heads were about 1 meter from their bodies.

The head count is up to four now and a fifth body opnlyhad his face disfigured (but got to keep it attached). The TJ news said that 24 decapitated
bodies have been found around TJ in the past few months.

I wish they'd put a border crossing in Imperial Beach to Playas- skip TJ altogether. They've already filled in Smuggler's gilch- why not build on it
too?

11 more on the east coast today. Can we put a little counter box in the top corner of the page to keep track?
