Los Zetas Cartel
Operative Sentenced to Federal Prison for Cocaine Trafficking
In August 2015, Heredia
pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute
cocaine. By pleading guilty, Heredia admitted that from January 2007 to May
2015, he conspired with others to distribute more than five kilograms of
cocaine in the United States.
According to evidence
in this case, Heredia and others trafficked cocaine and marijuana for
distribution in San Antonio, Fort Worth and elsewhere. It was done, in part,
through a San Antonio-based network of drug distributors and money launderers
led by 34–year-old San Antonio resident Walter Jacobo. This investigation
revealed that the source of drug supply to Jacobo’s organization, as well as
several other organizations involved in this scheme, was the Los Zetas Cartel.
Together, they were responsible for the trafficking of more than 180,000 pounds
of marijuana, hundreds of kilograms of cocaine, in excess of $18 million in
U.S. currency, dozens of firearms and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
This investigation has
resulted in the conviction of 18 individuals on federal charges. Twelve (12)
have been sentenced; six (6) remain in custody pending sentencing. Sentences
range from 20 years in federal prison to probation. On January 19, 2017, Jacobo
was sentenced to ten years in federal prison followed by five years of
supervised release for his role in the scheme.
This case resulted from
an Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) investigation conducted
by a High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) San Antonio group comprised
of investigators from DEA, HSI, Internal Revenue Service-Criminal
Investigation, San Antonio Police Department, Hollywood Park Police Department
and the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.
The principal mission
of the OCDETF program is to identify, disrupt and dismantle the most serious
drug trafficking, weapons trafficking and money laundering operations, and
those primarily responsible for the nation’s illegal drug supply.
Chapo is quick to testify against people
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't surprise anybody in sinaloa
DeleteWheres your evidence that chapo has anything to do with this case?
DeleteWhat does midget man have to do with this article please explain..@9:15am no mames la cagas..
DeleteEven chapo snitched on the zetas damn
DeleteLight sentence! Definitely cooperative circumstances led to this outcome. Is this justice? Many may dispute the courts verdict. However being said and done, many indictments were probably attained.
ReplyDeleteLeaving us with the conclusion that justice did prevail. Moreover, hopefully wiser choices will be a factor upon release.
this guy snitch on all his old friends
ReplyDeleteHe got a good deal!
ReplyDeleteI think in the next 10 years, or so, all states in USA will legalize marijuana. Here is a very interesting map (animated .gif) showing "canabis legalization"

Are you sure you forgot son who is in white house Trump
DeleteThe mexican pot grown outside is of poor quality compared with pot grown indoors under controlled conditions by experts. Mexican dt organizations have switched focus to glass, chiva, and coca.
DeleteIndoor home grown pot fed steroids and forbidden illegal growth factor mutant genes is for pussies.
DeleteBeing a mariguanos is about the natural lift, natural grown grifa provides, including the nits, spiders and lice, where the natural nutrients and high are, there is also the rebel factor of it being tax free because of our puros güebos, we don't to feed lazy bureaucrats more money to steal from the public coffers, unless they can use la bacha pa las tres.
This is a small fry...hundreds of kilos? Please thats not even a ton. Shitty ass weed too, probably.
ReplyDeleteThat compressed brick reggie full of seeds that one has to chip off with a chisel. Buy American hydro and starve a cartel.
DeleteThose evil bastards are worthless but tell me how hundred/s of kilos are small fry ? -CDS nutthugger
DeleteJajajaja solo en BB can a person get dissed for only moving a few hundred kilos... Pffft not even a ton smh.
Delete11:57, that was funny. Very true.
Deletebuying homegrown will not starve a cartel since Marijuana is no longer the main product, its coke meth and heroin. Californian weed is now being smuggled to Mexico
Delete"California weed" dos o tres cigarritos de mota pal hijo del gobernador o uno quiotro artista
Delete--won't make anybody rich on the US.
yah man, seems this is somewhat a small win. Where are the busts of 1000kg of coke coming in via shipping containers?
ReplyDelete10:18 those tons are not being found because, mmmh, ah, hmm, that the idea, call it a "triump" for the new owners.
DeleteChivis..HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER..NOW AND IN THE FUTURE FOR THE BENEFIT OF YOUR DEAREST AND YOUR PROJECTS..
ReplyDeleteIn the face of aggravation,pedantic,arrogant faceless morons(including me)i felt the need to aplaud you and your years of running this ship almost single handedly(i dont know why,guilt perhaps)Either way,as you know many may not agree with you,but you most definitely are a strong opinionated woman any man would be proud to partner and learn from(your husband)I salute you girl,she doesnt slow her roll she cruises,catch a cool breeze baby,do what it do.
We should cherish this woman and her drive on BB.For real.
"The more people dislike me"you know the rest
We should just them run wild. Been fighting a losing battle since the turn of the century
ReplyDeleteAll dem bitches squeal for a deal. Alll of dem!
ReplyDelete2 years to sentence him? Must of snitching....
ReplyDeletei did not read something about 2 years, it was more like "...Sentences range from 20 years in federal prison to probation...." and "...Twelve (12) have been sentenced; six (6) remain in custody pending sentencing."
DeleteOr did you knew more cause you snitched on them?
11:13 report says "arrested in 2015 august"
Delete--to sentencing in Jan 2017 is more like one year and 6 months but looks like two years from arrest to sentence.
--you can straighten up your panties now, I hope...
Did I miss it or did Marciano Millan Vasquez get sentenced yet . I was extradited from mexico but tried for murders he committed in Mexico . We cant kill him can we ? Lock him up for eternity . Let that fucker suffer the most mental stress he can legally suffer . I hate that piece of shit for all he's done
ReplyDeleteYou were tried for murders?
DeleteI take it you were found not guilty?
Were you one of the guys that testified against him??
Missed Barry's pardon pen by that much....
ReplyDeleteAccording to ( CISEN ) Jesus alfredo Beltran Guzman "el Mochomito " is the most powerful drug lord in all of Mexico .
ReplyDeleteThat is quite hilarious.. That is assuming he is the heir of the entire organization and even so, grossly exaggerated. Disinfo detected.
DeleteThis site must have gotten bad approval ratings by some government for it not to post or comment for some days?
ReplyDeleteHope it's not the case here. But unfortunately government censure ships are known to occur.
Looking forward to your return.
People have lives.
DeleteIts called having a life..Sometimes they are too busy to mod all the comments and shit they have to trawl through,as well as dealing with grammar police and basic whining..
DeleteWhy dont you help out ?
@9:30 No government or big bad censor got us. Unfortunately we have the same kinds of problems regular people do - illness, computer problems, etc. Fortunately I have almost recovered from a bad bronchial infection that zapped me a couple of weeks ago and TelMex tells me that have fixed the internet service interruptions and it should work fine.
DeleteWe currently have stories in the pipeline and I am trying to finish a story I started before I got sick so we should be up and running full steam very soon.
Glad to hear and wish u best of health and spirits
Delete@4:23PM thanks for the kind wishes. I am back, maybe not at 100% yet but just posted a story. Washito have stories up in draft that should be up soon.
Delete@930AM

I thought the same thing at first, but i understand now.. Thanks BB.

9:30 How about this other scenario . All these guy that are putting on articles probably have a life that includes making a living having family so on ect. You know , just life . But if they had advertisers .... But would I advertise a business on here . Shit no . Could be a target . so here we are waiting for our under rewarded gracious people at BB to put on another story and brave our ridicule and shitty comments . Hell we done run some of these guys off . It is a shame there cant be some way to compensate these people through advertisement or something .

ReplyDeleteDecapitation case involving Border Agent.
@2:37 Thanks for the link amigo. Story is now up.
DeleteThanks to all the commenters for you kind words and thoughts. As you know we are all volunteers and do this without financial compensation. And I think that is the best way for us to do it. Somehow I feel if I were getting paid to do this it would not be the same. Taking money for doing this would detract from heartfelt dedication that we have for BB. Anyway I am not sure they could pay me enough to do this.
ReplyDeleteI tried to explain why I do it in a story I posted a couple of years ago. Sometime when you have read the current stories and don't have anything to do give it a read.
http://www.borderlandbeat.com/2014/05/mexico-sometimes-i-want-cry-for-you.html
But I think the best story that expresses why we do it is a story Buggs posted after the first full year of BB after he founded it in 2009. It is worth taking the time to read it. (BTW, you will see "Buela" mentioned several times and some of her comments. You may not have been around when "Buela" changed her name to "Chvis".)

I feel honored to try to follow in those guys footsteps.
