A clandestine laboratory with 2710 kilograms of "crystal", was located yesterday by members of the Secretariat of National Defense (SEDENA), while performing land reconnaissance in the vicinity of the village of Zapote Cazares, located in the municipality of Mocorito. Facilities were found where synthetic drugs are produced which were seized.

They proceeded to inspect the area, locating 27 plastic containers with a capacity of 200 liters (55 gallon drum size) each containing approximately 100 kg( 220 pounds) each of a granular ''crystal substance " details.

"It has been documented that the illicit product located in the laboratory was approximately 2,710 kilograms of ''crystal" methamphetamine; ie: 5,962 Pounds or nearly 3 Tons.
One of many labs in the sierra!. Prolly some puto who guano is trying to shake down!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like the lab that they showed on the Clandestine CDS documentary
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteA nice find and seizure.
Unbelievable, as to the quantity of such an awful drug. Can only imagine how much of this is actually being manufactured and distributed.
I have yet to see such product being in high demand in my city. Cocaine and heroine are what's mostly sought out after. Only articles and documentaries of such affecting communities. Always considered this drug a rural thing and border epidemic.
Maybe I am wrong with such assumptions?
Nevertheless, a bad drug and good bust.
Thanks BB .

Who runs mocorito? Is it cds or blo? That's a massive hit but if what I'm seeing from the pictures is true then it looks like they did a pretty shit job of concealment. Well the first picture was alright but why use red containers in the woods
ReplyDeletepal fin de este 2017 o cominezo del 2018 sale palma salazar. casi nadie.
ReplyDeleteSome heads are rolling after this!
ReplyDeleteDamn somebody is Guna pay with thier life few dead next few days
ReplyDeleteBig bust to cds
ReplyDeleteBig by your perception maybe but very minor in reality. It was just closer to highway 15 and many trucks. Once packaged some lowlife was buying within 8 hours of packaging in USA.

3 tons! Wonder how much was there before police took there cut.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of this much crystal all in one place let alone confiscated. Sinaloa is taking over the meth game
ReplyDeleteSalu2 a las tahonas mocorito y todo el valle
ReplyDeleteHow much is 3 tons of crystal worth? Like 300 bucks - sarcasm? Crystal is the cheapest and about the most harmful drug you can buy. Being cheap is what makes people buy it so much in Mexico and even some parts of the U.S. Because of it's harmful effects only fools buy this and all drugs though to be honest!
ReplyDeleteCrystal is the poor man's coke
DeleteIll break it down for shits and gigs.. one P of ice is worth about $10k in my area and thats somewhere between wholesale and retail. Multiply that by 3,000 pounds and that little tweaker lab just lost $30 million dollars. Not exactly something to sneeze at.
Delete2:28. You didn't break down shit. That gram (point) your buying in your trailer park has been marked up about 18,500% from the first guy who buys the load in USA so your math is irrelevant
DeleteAbout 800 bucks in mexico, 1200-1500 in the US firsthand.
Delete3 tons. This is going to break the heart of the menchitita fans who claim he is the king of crystal. Little menchitita is only the king of targets and that is what happen when you require your trabajadores to extort the people
ReplyDeleteArriba a los mexikanos, los chingons de San Antonio...they love us, they hate us but they damn sure will respect us
ReplyDeleteNo hay respeto cabron. Nada joto.
DeleteLooks like an old abandoned lab donated to let the "authorities" look like they are going after the "bad guys".
ReplyDelete3 Tons of lye and fertilizer.
Could be they just showing what looks like some abandoned barrels that nobody wanted anymore.
DeleteDid you actually READ the article?
DeleteEl senor de los gallos is the king of world crystal remember the 15 tons that went down years ago.. remember they started the game and showed the chinolas how to cook don't bite that hand that feeds you.....
ReplyDeleteThats right mencho is absolutely hands down the greatest.
DeleteWrong, nacho coronel was known as the king of meth so don't get it twisted
Delete-💯
9:55. Your right. The street people and prostitutes in Mexico have been smoking cristal from Puerta Vallarta to Culiacan for several years before Nacho was killed.
DeleteIn the years of past narcos and gob agree not to sell drugs in the country except maybe turist areas, rich people and people with connections to cartel, and usual places with prostitution. Ignacio had many dolars but to have pesos faster Nacho had some people selling to new users in DF, Jalisco, Guanajuato, Michoacán, Nayarit and even Sinaloa. This is why most people I know say the the gob killed Nacho but with permission of CDS. Today in Mazatlan, Durango and Culiacan it is not as bad as TJ but many street people, workers of sex industry, and homosexual clubs are full of the users of cristal.
Wrong wron g wrong. El dr pineda invented crystal it wanst michoacanos. They didnt think it was worth it other cds guys and nachito started it. Then all wanted to do crystal
DeleteI thought meth was invented by the germans.
Deletewho is el dr pineda ?? are we talking about los pineda bros ?? mp ? el borrado ??
DeleteThat is a shit ton, literally. How careless can they be to let that much product just sit there. Was it just precursors or finished product ?
ReplyDeleteI am in S Fla, thank God no meth here. Crack is still king with pain pills in second.
