| "EPN: Mission Accomplished?" Same phrase tweeted by EPN announcing Chapo's re-capture, and the phrase used by The Natl Police of Spain announcing the arrest of Moreira |
What the U.S. wanted to do, and Mexico failed to do, the arrest of Humberto
Moreira Valdez, was conducted today at the Madrid International Airport.
No details have been given by authorities, but it was the Anti-Corruption
officers who made the arrest based on a Spanish warrant. Off the record sources say the arrest was for
“organized crime” and “money laundering,”funds resultant from drug trafficking.
El Espanol reports, that the Economic Crime Unit and Attorney
(UDEF) investigated the funds the former governor has in Spain.
The legal team of Moreira gave a statement to Formula Group, claiming that
his arrest was due to "migration issues," but gave no further details
of his capture.
He resigned from Governorship to run for PRI chief, and resigned from that
post under suspicion of being culpable for missing state funds and falsifying
state loan docs. a $2.6 billion state
government debt accumulated when he was governor of Coahuila, financed at least
in part by falsified documents.
The state now governed by Humberto’s brother Ruben. It is widely thought Humberto cut a deal with
PRI to resign to protect the Pena candidacy, leave in exile and return to have
his name cleared.
Before the scandal he was at the top of the list of probable candidates for the next Mexican presidential election.
Before the scandal he was at the top of the list of probable candidates for the next Mexican presidential election.
It was in the Barcelona township of Sant Cugat del
Vallès, Spain where he and his wife and children went into exile for 2
years. Presumably these charges are for
activities during his stay there. He has long rumored to be in collusion with
the Los Zetas Cartel, as is his father in law.
The former leader of
the PRI has been accused of belonging to a group called "Connecting
Coahuila" involved in money laundering and embezzlement. Among the
members of this criminal group is Rolando Gonzalez Treviño who last May 28 of
this year pleaded guilty to justice in the United States with conspiracy to
transport stolen money from the state of Coahuila.
During the
administration of Humberto Moreira, state officials processed bank loans by at
least 3 000 100 million pesos, using apocryphal documentation, as evidenced by
complaints from the Ministry of Finance with the Attorney General's Office
(PGR).
Of the 14 involved in
"Connecting Coahuila", six are or have been imprisoned; one is
indicted and two have been killed. When Humberto Moreira took office as
Governor of Coahuila, the state debt was 323 million pesos. At the end of
his mandate was about 34 billion. According to data from the Mexican Institute
for Competitiveness (IMCO), between 2005 and 2009 the government of Coahuila
raised its debt by 709 percent.
Forbes magazine named him as one of Mexico top 10 most corrupted. After the Forbes list was released, he
threatened to sue the magazine, but of course that would have presented a
multitude of problems for the disgraced governor, beginning with depositions
and mandatory questioning in civil court.
After issuing his bombastic threats, he withdrew and has not been heard
from since. It is rumored he lives in
upscale Cuernavaca with his wife and 3 children, including a new son born since
his return to Mexico.
Another son, Eduardo “Lalo” Moreira, was murdered by Los Zetas in Acuna,Coahuila, in October, 2012.
Members of
the Acuna police department, including the Chief aided Zetas hitmen by calling
Lalo for a meeting at a desolate part of the city where hitmen were
waiting.
The relationship of the once close Moreira brothers has been fractured and
more so after Lalo’s death, which Humberto blamed his brother for exposing his
son to danger, by taking away his armored vehicle and leaving his personal
security in the hands of the municipal police.
Municipal police along the border are corrupted and work in collusion
with organized crime. In effect one
brother gave the son of another into the hands of his assassins.

(0:05 -0:08)
In the State of
Coahuila, behind the face of what is supposed to be a social government that
helps people
(0:09 – 0:17)
is a well-armed
criminal net of corruption, shadowy businesses and influence peddling; by
Humberto and Ruben Moreira, their relatives and unconditional friends.
(0:18 – 0:28)
Thanks to a very
extensive investigational work, secretly obtained several months ago, it has
been discovered the tentacles that form the corruption net, that is headed by
Humberto and Ruben Moreira, through
front men - Prestanombres (
0:30) that
cover and hide sources of illicit enrichment
(0:34 -0:38)
It is a casualty for the government of Coahuila resulting debt for
around 20 thousand million pesos.
(0:39 – 0:43)
Much of this money was
derived from the honest effort of the people of Coahuila.
(0:44 – 0.55)
The reality is that it
has been blatantly destined to enlarge the personal fortune of the Moreira
Family and their unconditional friends. These are some of the unconditional
friends and partners of the brothers Humberto and Ruben Moreira:
(0.56 – 1:06)
Javier Villarreal
Hernandez: Former secretary of finances and actual head of the SATEC (Tributary
Administrative System of the State of Coahuila) He is an employee of the
Moreira’s.

From his strategic
position inside the government of Coahuila, he has become the head of the
financial operations of the Moreira net.
(1:16 – 1:18)
Javier Villarreal
Hernandez has been very careful that his name doesn’t appear in these
transactions.
(1:19 - 1:28)
He does everything in
the name of Francisco Javier Flores Valdes, supposedly the nephew of the
Moreira brothers and husband of his subordinate Anabell Torres Leza

questionable attorney of San Antonio,
Texas, that according to the proof obtained, he is who is in charge to
legitimize and sanitize the operations of the Moreira net in the foreign
country. (US)
(2:21 – 2:24)
He is also the personal

(4:02 – 4:04)
thanks to his
unconditional relationship to the Moreira Family.

Numerous signs and
evidence place him as one of the principal front men inside the corruption net
of the Moreira’s. He is owner, majority shareholder or stockholder of the
enterprises and properties that the net possesses in Saltillo. It is estimated
that altogether,
(4:22)
These businesses have a
value that exceed

purchased
(5:14 – 5:28)
by the business Storage Corporation S.A de
C.V., under the mane of Marco Antonio Martinez Saucedo and Francisco Xavier

property was acquired with

Texas. The participation of Schuessler Reyes in the Moreira net
(5:59 – 6:05)
consists in
acquisitions of properties in different cities of the state of Texas under the name
of Schuessler enterprises
(6:06 – 6:10)
Some of the enterprises
under Lorenzo Schuessler Reyes’ name, within a very long list, include
(6:11 – 6:22)
MPV Family Partnership,
LLC, Peninsula South Padre 1, LLC, Aero Premio, LLC, Alpes Group, LLC,
Barcelona at Stone Oak, LLC, Villa Premio Gas, LLC and IXE Systems, LLC.
(6:28 – 6:38)
Additionally, several
properties are registered in the Public Records of Texas, under the names of
Lorenzo Schuessler Reyes, and/or his wife Itzel Rotelo of Schuessler, sister in
law of Javier Villarreal Hernandez.
(6:39 – 6:51)

representation for the multiple commercial, financial and property transactions
that the Moreira net create in the foreign country.

The law firm, The
Flores Group, specialized in International Corporative Rights, Tax and
Migration Services operating for the Moreira net, and the transactions and
operations in the foreign country. The address of The Flores group is 7272
Wurzbach Road Suite 901, San Antonio, Texas.
(7:09 - 7:13)

representative of the Government of Coahuila in McAllen, Texas.
(7:14 – 7:17)
Multiple properties of
the Moreira in the foreign country are registered under his name
(7:18 – 7:33)
In addition to all this
net of corruption, illicit businesses and influence peddling, through
front men of Humberto and Ruben Moreira,
exists strong evidence that with no doubt show how members of Moreira Valdez
Family have acquired
(7:34 – 7:42)
numerous properties and
buildings in the city of Saltillo, Coahuila, so blatantly, that without shame
they are acquired under their names
(7:43 – 7:55)
as the compound that Humberto Moreira possesses in San Antonio, Texas under the name of his
mother in law, Herminia Martinez de la Fuente, with swimming pool, spa and 5
spacious bedrooms with a value of more than 1 million dollars.
(7:56 – 8:11)
This is just a part of
the criminal corruption net that head Humberto and Ruben Moreira, and is what
they plan to continue doing in Coahuila with Ruben Moreira as Governor.
I sure hope these charges stick, I heard the U.S. wants him and has enough to charge him with money laundering but that he likely would never be caught outside Mexico. This may be a game changer.
ReplyDeleteI am embarrassed to say I am Mexican.

--Spain is killing bullfighting to become civilized, now they bitch fight their former Colonies, but they still garrote people when nobody is watching, to help "el rey"...
I wish Spain would fix their Spanish. Mexican Spanish is so much prettier.
DeleteI think the last post I read involving the Zetas.. It mentioned something about how now they identify as "Cartel Del Norte".. Uhh can we get a tad bit more consistent here lol
ReplyDeleteput on your listening ears, although they are cdn they are also identified as zetas and clearly during the moreira reign they were identified as only los zetas
Deleteit would be in error to refer to them as anything else. No one knows this better than DD and I we are both Coahuilense

Hey chivis I was watching a video the other day where Phil Jordan Dea agent and ex head of el paso intelligence stated that he doesn't understand why peña nietos government arrested el Chapo when he made million dollar donation to his presidential campaign any thoughts/info on this subject?
Delete@8:48
DeleteI think Jordon should go away and retire in a nice sunny place. The problem is he supports his speculation based on his past credentials. He has no proof, when asked for it, he says "I don't have documentation but it is widely known". then what he says will never happen....happens Chapo is captured. "There must have been a big rig between PRI and chapo....." do ya think?
but even the million dollars, really? that's so low bid it is laughable.
6:31 there you go, posted.

Off topic BB they found a cell phone on one of the three killers who killed the mayor of Temixco I believe was the town. In the cell phone thers a video of them cutting up a guy with an ax and a machete as they drink beer an listen to music they cut fingers than an arm then at the end lays a penus they cut off while teasing the man and making fun of him..
ReplyDeleteRight out of La Reina del Sur! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is great. So the moral of the story is sending a message to all those crooked politicians in Mexico. Stay in Mexico so you are not arrested and avoid rival cartels. If you leave the country the US will make sure you are arrested! This is truly a sign that the behaviours of these cartels are being pushed right back to Mexico. It is becoming less tolerated everywhere but in Mexico.
ReplyDeleteim fucking ruthless...if you don't think i am... fucking test me. the day i go to my parents hometown... which i loved going to when i was younger. but not as much now. i have plans on going before this year ends. the day i do, im going to be head hunting if you're a templario or zeta soldier/sympathizer im not going to have mercy on you. if you think i aint with it just fucking wait and see

Por ratas komo esas es ke mexico y latino america estan todos echos mierdas, solo roban y roban a los municipios y estados y le dan proteccion a las otras ratas komo ellos mismos, arruinando mas las cosas esos malparidos.
ReplyDeleteNo todos pero La mayoria de los politicos en Mexico son puras bolas de ratas que se rascan la espalda unos a otros. Por eso los carteles triunfan en Mexico. Lastima de gran pais.
ReplyDeleteMexican politicians always look so sleazy. Shiny suits, slicked back hair.
ReplyDeleteThat's cause from a young age they learn to steal and extort bribes to make their families proud while the poor beg on the streets to feed their families. Personally I don't admire Mexico's politicians. I see them as a low form of life.
DeleteDamn. I guess in mexico you don't have to be to smart. Especially with an approval rate from epn. All his propertys are in his name or near family. Ima go to mexico and make a couple million too.
ReplyDeleteGo ahead all you have to do is... Become a mx-politician then from there you can start your brilliant career as a big rat in suit and tie, you can burn the rest of the rats while your at it... A few rats is better than a bunch of rats. Lol !
DeleteHe had to be arrested in Spain because EPN the rat would have never arrested him. I'm still waiting for the governor of Sinaloa to be arrested. Everybody knows that he was Chapo's buddy. He's a horrible man. I imagine that most governor's in north-western Mexico are on CDS's payroll still.
ReplyDeleteEl PRI, governor Cesar Duarte, and la linia fought el chapo in chihuahua, Duarte won, he is a million dollar mexican "banker" now...
DeleteThis is the best article/report out there. I recall Chivis being the first to call Moreira "Bert" years ago. Chivis your love for Coahuila has prompted some outstanding articles over the years. The Lalo murder, the moreiras at war, the exile, zeta connection, the Santa Muerte chapels (zetas), all stories that were ill-reported or non existent elsewhere. They keep me connected to the state that is my heart. you should compile the articles into a book covering the years you have been in Saltillo.
ReplyDeleteIsn't strange that moreira is nieto's buddy and member of the pri that arrested el chapo and now he gets arrested. after all el chapito, Does have a big back up that's a message to el pri,if u extradite el chapo bigger heads are going to roll i don't think el pri is very happy with spain this gets interesting with this arrest.
ReplyDeleteSalma hayek and spanish actress penelope cruz made movies on are del golfo properties, and spain has singers and actors all over Latin America as cultjral ambassadors of good will, always pushing dirty business tricks...
DeleteSeems that pri political party is going to pay for chapo's arrest that's a clear message to the president his pri best friend gets arrested coincidence?
ReplyDeleteInteresting observation!EPN must really have his knickers in a bind.Damned if he does extradrite Chapo damned if he doesn't.If he does maybe consequences of some kind personally and if he doesn't to please the world his funding from US gets cut off!Gee I wonder who pays better:US or Sinaloa Cartel?
DeleteMission accomplished one of the mexican president best friends gets arrested the rats from both sides are falling el pan is on chapo's side yel pri on arellano's
ReplyDeletemexico is soooooooooooooo third world. scumbag politician leaves in disgrace? who cares, lets put his brother in. smdh..... Nepotism and clan politics at its finest.
ReplyDeletethese are the real cartel drug lords, the EPNs, Moreira, Gortaris, the slim helus. Guys like chapo, el mayo, arturo beltran, z40 all muscle head pawns in a chess game.
PRI and the political power structure are the real cartel overlords while the drug cartel heads like chapos are mere enforcer gangs in the big picture scheme.
