The
patio of Horror
Culiacan, Sinaloa.-
There are corpses lying all, rolled and tied in white plastic. Some, atop
aluminum stretchers; others on the ground below. It is not the scene of a crime: it is the
courtyard of the Forensic Medical Service (Semefo), where it seems that it has
become a common issue for this office of the Attorney General of Justice, which
is responsible for safeguarding victims who, by willful or accidental reasons,
have lost their lives.
Wrapped in tarps,
swollen and odor of decomposition, lay unidentified bodies. According to visits
by El Debate journalists photographic documentation, the bodies, up to 21 lay
in this manner for at least ten days.
The refrigerated storage failed over two month ago and no attempts to
repair the system have been made, the situation complicated by the number of
corpses exceeding storage capabilities.

The smell of death
permeates the walls and spreads by several meters around the building, affecting
people passing by the site or going to the newly opened facilities of the
Regional Criminal Justice Center and Oral accusatory, downtown.
El Debate has requested a statement from the Attorney
General of Sinaloa, which he has so far refused. On various occasions,
especially since the investigative report on the conditions of accumulated
unidentified cadavers located at the "The Patio of Horror" at the
SEMEFO Culiacan facilities, Higuera Gomez has refused interviews along with the
Governor of Sinaloa, Mario Lopez Valdez and Gerardo Vargas, although Vargas has
confirmed the voracity of the information.
That's pretty unbelievable! Governors stealing everything that is not bolted down and nobody can come up with money to fix this! Can't blame the US election on this crap!
ReplyDeleteU.S has plenty to blame. There is no Politician out there saying Americans need to curb drug usage to quit feeding Mexico's problems. Not one politician holding Americans accountable.
DeleteOh yes they can,and will
DeleteOnly people with half a brain or a distasteful agenda can possibly lay blame on anyone except the Sinaloan authorities
DeleteOnly people with less than half a brain or a distasteful agenda can possibly lay blame on anyone except the purveyors of the War on Drugs that has only served to create this situation, and escalate it.
DeletePlease stop with that, it's not a politicians responsibility, or anyone else for that matter, to tell me to not use drugs. If you have a good foundation growing up and taught right and still decide to use drugs.... well then sunshine, that's on you! You have a choice. Drug users have a choice. I have access to drugs but I don't use them. Just be responsible, stop justifying mexicos problem by blaming US politics or how Americans buy dope. That's nothing but a fucking excuse. Time for people to start owning up for the choices THEY MAKE. If drugs were legal then most of this BS wouldn't be happening.
DeleteSoooooo my question is. Where is all that drug money going into. Because if these guys are buying properties, cars, those cemetery plots that look like small mansions, businesses, laundering money into the Mexican economy. All these towns are still broke? When cocaine cowboys came out. It talked about how Miami actually grew in economy based on cocaine.

Sinaloa is a war zone right now and just like every state in mexico, it lies about the casualties.. just like Acapulco. Somebody is really trying to clean the house. Cds is getting hit hard regardless of what people that support that cartel say. You got cds fighting each other, cds against beltranes in sinaloa, cds against cjng in colima and tijuana and cds against cartel de juares in chihuahua. Only a mater of time before cds cells and up going to beltranes or other cartels.

I was thinking the same.The maitenance budget [to fix the refridgeration] was stolen.Must be really bad for the inside morgue workers to even be there.
ReplyDeleteMexico is sinking to depths below India and Pakistan. Mexico needs a Revolution!!!
ReplyDeleteWho is going to lead the revolution, You?
Delete1:58 the US supplies modern second hand weapons to the mexican sstrapy, and imounity, you have rocks to throw to them, start your revolution, but you will be on your own for the most part, they are waiting for your "attack".
DeleteMexico is way to complicaded and will never alow a revolution and the people who will lead that idea will simply get killed or imprisoned. Just look at the autodefenzas and dr. Mireles. It's not as easy as when Fidel Castro took over Cuba..
ReplyDeleteA revolution is impossible with thieves at the head.
Delete10:52 The revolution will have to be:
DeleteDRAG THE ASSES OF THE OWNERS OF MEXICAN CORRUPTION THROUGH THE MUD, name names, then take on the mexican leaders of the corrultion, and start the brick bats of lawsuits in country and all over the world...
--cookroaches are famous for being allergic to light...
is this the navolato one because i remember going to it my uncle runs the place ??
ReplyDeleteNo. It's Culiacan. The first line of the article begins with "Culiacan, Sinaloa". Please take at least 2 seconds to read before asking questions like this.
DeleteOk so this is meant for the person or persons deleting my comments. Some people here write straight stupid comments. Yet for some reason mine don't get posted. WTF is up with that? You guys on here are pretty biased from what I see. And I'm taking about whomever controls the comments.

Maybe if u said something interesting or worthwhile.
DeleteEl SEMEFO in Guerrero has 460 bodies that are unidentified and they also ran out of room. In Chilpancingo, they had bodies lying in the parking lot. Based on a recent Grillonautas video, it seems like they built a temporary outdoor storage system for the bodies. Still, the SEMEFO is under-funded and overwhelmed in these hot spots of violence. Most of these bodies are probably of sicarios whose families don't know they've been killed, maybe don't even know where they were at.

DeleteSinaloa is bloody with chapos falling left and right..
ReplyDeleteThese pieces of sewage are cartel shit so who the fuck cares how they rot. Knowing they are going to Hell helps.
ReplyDelete3:15 many are innocent victims of false positives, don't be a pendejo big mouth when you don't even know their names, pinchi mamón, TELOSICO...
DeleteWhen a country decides to go to war, do they leave bodies where they fall?
ReplyDeleteDoes U.S. and Mexico have a winning or exit strategy?
It is about having cartels fight each other while U.S. take the money from the sales within their country.
Shorty tought
Its so easy to judge and blame others,generalizing when you talk about Mexico is just plain wrong. We Mexicanos are not all in the narco-business.As a matrer of fact a very small percentage of Mexicanos are in those business, most of us are law abiding citizens. Please leave the stereotyping and insensitive labeling to ignorant people like Thrump. We are better than that.
DeleteI feel its more like a social cleansing, getting rid of the poor uneducated that end upnas sicarios.

It's not a US war until Marine boots are on the ground. This is Mexico's problem.
Delete5:24 looks like mercenary boots are on the ground, working the war for the drug trafficking business for the mexican and the US drug traffickers, helped by military attaches, army, air force, marinas, dea and cia, there in mexico, genarco garcia luna's "police" shot up a couple of them in cuernavaca...
DeleteVery true this isn't U.S. war it's all mexico problem. If the mexican Government wasn't so corrupt, Mexico would actually get some where. When you have the people running the country stealing everything for their own profit it's never getting anywhere. Sad thing is Mexico is a beautiful country with good people in it.
ReplyDelete9:08 the US declared its Monroe Doctrine, not the mexicans...
Delete--and the US has practiced what it has preached, since the 1800s complementing the white man's philosophy:
"indian scalps his enemy, white man skins his friends"
With a lot of practicing for the last 200 years...
Amen 9:08!That's why it's called a developing country.It isn't developed yet.
Delete9:08-Amen.
