Looks like the end is near
Teodoro Garcia Simental, the man responsible for the majority of the behadings, kidnappings, and high profile murders in the Rosarito-Tijuana-Tecate
region, is near capture or death. Last weeks capture of his top lieutenant, along with the arrest of many of his soldiers and killers, and tons of
drugs that belong to his organization. Has made him so weak, that right now there is a huge manhunt in the mountains east of Rosarito where it is
being reported, 300+ soldiers and several hundred Police are combing the terrain as he was located talking in a satellite phone. It appears the man is
trapped and asking for help from the other members of the cartel he once betrayed via his satellite phone. Authorities say no one is coming to help,
in a clear message the cartel is sending that they have had enough of this guy and want him out. His brother, was kidnapped last night as well by
armed gunmen who apparently belong to the Arellano felix cartel, so the outcome for this guy is pretty grim.
With this guys arrest, i think the region is in for a period of stabilization and relative safety.
Saty tunned, one of Mexicos most wanted men, is near the end.

The Vacuum will be filled, but i think future leaders realize that beheadings and kidnappings do not pay.

What do you mean? This guy actually frequents places in the city on a predictable itenerary? The situation couldn't be that corrupted....could it?

No, Woody. I'm serious. I don't live in the middle of it so I don't see it. Could it be true, with all the military and police everywhere, that
this guy runs around without being collected? I know there's corruption but, even Mexicans wouldn't put up with this.

Absolutetly true. I've posted before about Mayor Torres, the Police Commandante, and El Teo all out drinking in Downtown Rosarito Beach within 100
yards from each other at the same time. Nothing is more important that staying alive to all three. A true gentlemans agreement. lol
Cananyone verify the kidnapping last night or the search today- or do I have to go up there on my dirt bike to look around?

There indeed was lots of police activity yesterday in town- but nothing on the news or in the paper as of yet. If it's a kidnap and manhunt combined-
it may take a few days to sort out the players. Plus this would be a huge victory for Mexico (and us "prisoners" here in Baja norte) and everyone
will want to fly in be photographed under that big flag with the man who's photo everyone was afraid to print. Maybe that ends today. Hoping.

More on Garcia
An email from an American who used to own a large resort inland from Ensenada.
"Actually, Garcia is somewhere just north and east of the Ranch. He took over a small rancho, killed the mother and wounded the father. Two kids
escaped and hid until the troops arrived. He stole two of their horses.
Not a good time to by ANYWHERE in Mexico ."

Would that be "Rancho Ensenada?"

I checked in yesterday with a SanDiego journalist I e-mail once in a while. They haven't heard anything at all, but "will drop everything for this
story" if it pans out. They also said he would probably be quickly delivered to Mexcio City for display. Everyone wants a shot at Teo- once he is
dead or extradited of course. They think it's just wishful thinking so far. I hope not.

Dennis, You Are Correct
The email was forwarded to me by a friend of the former owner(s). Boy, the history of that place is another fascinating and convoluted story of land
deals/promoters in Baja. It would make an interesting book all on its own.

Good idea....i need an excuse to go for a good ride, eat some tacos, dodge some assassins, practice my Spanish, and meet a few Nomads.
What do you ride?
