MEXICO
CITY- Hipolito Mora, founder of one of the Autodefensas groups, assured that
Luis Antonio Torres AKA EL America is behind the murders of the four
catechists. Additionally, Hipolito Mora has adviced all families in La Rauna,
Michoacan to purchase weapons to defend themselves since there is a lack of
security in the region.
In an
interview with Azucena Ureti for Milenio TV, Mora affirmed that one of the four
young men found dead last Monday used to belong to one of the Autodefensas
groups, but added that the young man resigned about three months prior due to
the constant threats that he received and also because El Americano’s group
murdered his father in December 2014. He assured that the four murdered
catechists (Wilibaldo Hernandez, Jesus Ayala Aguilar, Adan Valencia, and Jesus
Lopez), were all young countrymen that helped their parents in the agriculture
and livestock sector.
Mora said
that the entire town is certain that El Americano is responsible for the
killings, but are afraid to speak since even the authorities are afraid of his
group.
“This
group has the authorities on their knees so much that even about a month ago,
this group stole a patrol car from them in the Buenavista municipality… from
Buenvista they brought the patrol car during night time hours to La Ruana that’s
about 15 minutes away… they were shouting profanities to the police dispatch
via the in-car-radio and there was no one that dared to stop them. It was
between 15 to 20 young men and they’re the ones causing all the chaos.”
He added
that although El Americano is no longer visible among the group due to the
authorities looking for him and that other people are running his group.
Hipolito
Mora also said that the residents in La Ruana are very content with the
governor (Silvano Aureoles), because he’s carrying out projects for the towns;
the citizens committee has met with him, but believes that this is useless
because although they might receive resources to live better, financially, but
that they’ll eventually get killed or kidnapped due to the insecurity.
Because
of that, Hipolito Mora said “although it might sound bad, I recommend that all
families in Michoacan purchase weapons to defend themselves, because we don’t
have anyone to protect us.”
In an
interview with Azucena Ureti for Milenio TV, Mora affirmed that one of the four
young men found dead last Monday used to belong to one of the Autodefensas
groups, but added that the young man resigned about three months prior due to
the constant threats that he received and also because El Americano’s group

catechists (Wilibaldo Hernandez, Jesus Ayala Aguilar, Adan Valencia, and Jesus
Lopez), were all young countrymen that helped their parents in the agriculture
and livestock sector. 
"they were all young countrymen that helped their parents in the agriculture and livestock sector." .... of course, family members and friends always will say such things
ReplyDeleteIf Hipolito says the boys were clean then you can bet your azz that they were clean. Hipolito is one of the most honest people in Mexico
Delete837 the dead catechists were what Hipolito says, not what their parents say, I respect more Hipolito's word than your stupid comment, he has lost a son and battled this criminal "el americano" that the government supports so much.
ReplyDeleteAnd why would that not be tue?
ReplyDeleteCjng got total control of that area with Viagras thanks to the fake autodefenzas created by the government with help from Colombians..what better way to get a plaza, just arm cartels with guns acting like they are rurales or autodefenzas. Mexico taking advice from Colombians.
ReplyDeleteThis is sad for me because my country, USA is seven thousand miles away defending people that hate us while we stand by, do nothing to help our neighbors to the south. It's wrong. We should be providing guns to the good people of Mexico so they can protect themselves. The Lord knows we have enough.
ReplyDeleteWe are already helping the good people of Mexico...through Project Gunrunner and the Mérida Initiative.
DeleteRidiculous. Is why that animal of the American is not hunted...I have a friend decent. He say michoacan. Is Plata or plomo... is a hell.and more where is tierra caliente. Government. Arrested chapó guzman. Why not hunt of even look for the americano that I don't want to say guy or man he is one animal full of innocent blood in his hands.. poor dr moreles in prison. Is crime????..defend the good people of michoacan.. good for hipotito mora for the courage of said the true. ..God protect the people of michoacan because the mexican government help is 0... corruption.
ReplyDeleteHipolito mora is also in the drug trade, sadly but most of Michoacán is somewhat involved in dirty business with the help of the us of a
ReplyDeleteHipolito backstabbed Mireles; He lost his son and will die on the hands of the CT or CJNG before December.
ReplyDeleteThat is my guess as CJNG is expanding everywhere. The government helps them by looking the other way.
9:00 well, el mamericano is hiding, instead of protesting the murders of his amigos, as he did when he accused Hipolito of the murder of his friend of former ct and LFM el pollo rostizado, WHICH HE DID TOO.
ReplyDeleteHipolito on the other hand is giving conferences and press releases, and praising governor conejo, aka silvano aureoles pendejo.
It's all a big show, they are all involved but they have to point a finger and blame somebody. My guess is that el Americano will go down next just watch. I bet hipolito is in it too, he made a deal with the government and they let him out of prison while Dr. Mireles never gave in. That's why the doc is still in prison. Real spit
ReplyDeleteExactly
DeleteWhat a total mess. Americano is a murdering cartel member in the guise of Autodefensia
ReplyDeleteMexican police interviewed El Americano for links to La Tuta, on evidence provided by Borderland Beat, but decided to let him go. Thats four people that could have been alive today had the police decided to act. Mind you that par for the course for Michoacan.
