Members of the
Federal Police arrested Mario Alberto Romero Rodríguez, alias “El
Tucán” and also
known as Efraín Isaac Rosales, before dawn on Saturday,
October 18. “El Tucán”,
who is 48 years old, is reportedly a high ranking member of the Los
Caballeros Templarios cartel. He is specifically reported as an
operator for Servando Gómez Martínez, alias “La Tuta” dating
back to the days of La Familia Michoacana and
said to be his right hand.
“El
Tucán” operated
principally in
the municipality of Parácuaro, Michoacán. In June 2013, he
allegedly participated in the grenade attack on a hotel in Los Reyes,
which was housing members of the federal forces. With the rise of
the autodefensa movement, he was considered a major foe in the region
of Apatzingán. To
impede their advances, he allegedly
organized roadblocks and vehicle burnings on January 5, 2014 in Antúnez. Thereafter,
his luxurious residence was
discovered there, located next to the town church.
“El
Tucán” moved to
Mexico City several months ago and was
arrested in the colonia of Condesa, where
he had been distributing drugs in the area where the bars were
located. At
the time of his arrest he had about
a kilogram of crystal meth, a firearm, and two ammunition clips.
Based on this information, it is my speculation that Los Caballeros
Templarios is largely disbanded and “El
Tucán” was no
longer an important cartel member. It
appears that he had
become nothing more than a local drug distributor.
"it is my speculation that Los Caballeros Templarios is largely disbanded"
ReplyDeleteThis guy was wanted and known about for a while,as you say it could be true about CT.Right now every man for himself?The manpower of CT must surely still be largely intact,,but if they've jumped ship to new cartels and are being paid,CT could be in trouble?As for Tuta,it is amazing he hasn't been given up,i wonder why?Maybe they didn't get all the videos?
I saw this yesterday and scratched my head.
ReplyDeleteThis guy was never important. AUC in their listing had him listed as plaza boss then sicario boss in Parácuaro slotted to keep AD at bay. After the death of Panther seems he slipped into the abyss.
seems gob is trying to show how they are still getting close to Tuta,
that face
He looks like a clown
DeleteBuddy of mines was working for CT says they've all been "laid-off" until further notice Chivis. The only ones working are the inner circle of Tuta. He also told me the Gov is working trying to work over a deal w him so he won't release more compromising videos of higher ranking politictians.
DeleteHe even claimed he heard of one video where Peña Nieto appeared (which I doubt)
Although he had sent me the viagras vid around June last year.
What do you think about this Tuta not being caught situation Chivis? I hear the CT are done and depending heavy on Z tacticts and extortions from video tapped corrupt politictians.
"laid of" until further notice. one smart move la perra tuta made only leaving the monkeys he trust close to him, while the other monkeys are kept far away. bitch tuta mother facker lol
DeleteEl tucan cacheton con cara de bulldog.. lol
DeleteHe didnt want to join H3
ReplyDeleteJust another worthless criminal that has been allowed to terrorize . Another reason he may have left is when the locals started shooting back cowards like this couldn't hang . I said it before and I say it again . NEW GUN LAWS FOR MEXICO . Do you really think murder will go up ? Will it turn out more gun violence ? Are Mexican people generally so irresponsible that they just cant handle it ? Germany disarmed the citizens before world war II . People that don't have the right to have personal safety are prey . Anytime you have prey you will have predators. Sure there will still be criminals but will they be so bold ? They weren't when the citizens started fighting back in Michoacán. When the general public can help secure their own person there will be more security in the general public .
ReplyDeletewell I have been hearing the same for a couple of months. But I am not buying it at this point. Look to an alliance before things would be hopeless.
ReplyDeleteas for the video, you mean with Americano, who is not Americano because Americano said it isn;t and PJGE said "ok"? that video? :) well it was actually released last fall. I got it in November a couple weeks after its release.
I have heard about the EPN Tutavison also, but I laugh at that one. In our dreams, same goes for Castillo. They would never sit with him directly.
As for the vids. Doc M is the one who told me they found dozens at the ranch Tuta's mother was living at. In her home they found the vids and gave them to gob. That is where I first heard of them, way before they became known about.
anyway that's my dos centavos.....paz
Keep up the good work Chivas, since you mentioned the good Dr. What's his status ? Last I read he was supposed to be released on Sept. 15 th. I believe.
DeleteChivis I heard that tuta had those videos as insurance in case the people he would help out would keep there promise like vallego that couldnt do shit agansit the autodefensas so he realeased the one with his son and all the rest of the tapes
DeleteDidn't he supposely die a while back of a heart attack or something? Even narco corrido singer Chuy jr. shared his condolences on his facebook or twitter page.
ReplyDeleteWell i guess i can say good job
ReplyDeleteThese scums can't get away with as much near the frontier anymore, so then they try to really hurt people more interior of Mexico. I guess they think nobody from the world will put attention to these places in the south of Mexico like Guerrero and Michoacan, but now more of everyone can see how all the cockroaches operate just the same. If EPN can trap Vicente Carrillo, Hector Beltran, and Joaquin Guzman, I'm pretty sure that bringing Servando Gomez to justice, dead or alive should be no more difficult. Stop waiting for him to massacre more people.
ReplyDeleteirrelavent individuals
ReplyDeleteLa mancha de los templarios. Looks like he has the f**ked up templario cross on his face!
ReplyDeleteI never thought he would be released then. Too soon. And a district court this week ruled his detainment order is upheld. That means he stays put. his amparo rulings have not been handed down yet. I have long estimated he will stay in prison until dec-feb. But he has spent half his time in the hospital, so he may not live to see his release.
ReplyDeleteDude should be called the Baboon

ReplyDeleteThis guy reminds me of brozo el payaso lol
ReplyDeleteChivis, you're probably right saying that CT is disbanded (or almost) but the question still remains where is La Tuta?
ReplyDeleteChivis,
ReplyDeleteI'd say this guy was at least a little bit important. He was named in the indictment of South Los Eme members who working on some kind of merge with the CT. I know a lot of posters here don't think La Eme even comes close to the Mexican Cartels because many live in ghetto's and mostly prison, but when it comes to USA, they hold sway. They run the streets of southern California and no cartel can operate there without their blessing. El Tucan was listed as the highest ranking CT to deal with la Eme, which means he was at least a little bit important.
Tough loss for the rodeo clown community.

I was gonna dress as a hobo clown for halloween but I don't want to be mistaken for El Tucan.
DeleteGood morning. ...I did not say CT disbanded a reader did and I disagreed, I see no real indication of that and feel before it would disolve Tuta would formulate strong alliance(s) violence is up across the board since AD has been tempered.
ReplyDeleteAbout El Tucan, I did not say he was nothing, I did question if he was even involved with CT any longer, some have left CT, when I say some I mean enforcer chiefs. Tucan was on the list I rec from Doc of CT structure. He was listed with pantera on a list of 100 ct enfocrer chiefs or lieutenants.
what I did say is I think the gob over states the importance of their captures, most the time, and this is one. In Mexican media Tucan was designated as a huge capture, Tuta's "right hand man". and although things have changed in a year, I don't think this is the case.
He looks like a fat version of Cepillin lol
