This Cameron County Courthouse security footage from March 13 shows Osiel Cardenas Jr. leaving a law office of a former assistant district attorney who reported to the DA that his keepsake badge was missing.
|
A federal grand jury indicted Osiel Cardenas Jr.
Tuesday on one count of impersonating a U.S. Marshal and one count of being a
felon in possession of a firearm.
Brownsville police arrested Cardenas Jr., son of
former Gulf Cartel boss Osiel Cardenas, around 2 a.m. on March 15 in the
parking lot of the Sky Bar & Lounge. He is accused of waiving a gun around
the bar, displaying a Cameron County District Attorney’s badge and threatening
patrons with arrest if they didn’t leave the premises.
Police charged Cardenas Jr. with public
intoxication, false report to a police officer and unlawful carrying of a
weapon.
On May 18, 2015, Cardenas was convicted of
attempting to smuggle ammunition into Matamoros. His case for violating
supervised release is ongoing.
Questions remain on how exactly Cardenas Jr.
obtained a Cameron County District Attorney’s badge, but investigators do know
that it came from former assistant district attorney Ismael Hinojosa’s office.
Cameron County DA Luis V. Saenz says Hinojosa
advised him that his keepsakes badge was missing after learning of Cardenas
Jr.’s arrest.
Hinojosa represents Cardenas Jr. in a case regarding
a driver’s license, court records show.
Cameron County Courthouse security footage shown to
The Brownsville Herald corroborates Hinojosa’s statement to the DA that he met
with Cardenas Jr. on March 13.
In that footage, Cardenas Jr. can be seen leaving
Hinojosa’s office with what appears to be a shiny object hanging around his
neck.

Keep your stuff wired tight counselor. Leaving your badge lying around is just begging for it to be swiped by this amoral POS. On the other hand, if you allowed him to take your badge, then you should be sanctioned. Either way, you should be sanctioned for being careless.
ReplyDeleteHe left it out he was asking for it, sounds a lot like, look what she was wearing, she was asking for it... Smh
Deletehe wasn't impersonating a drug dealer? what??!?
DeleteWe can say he misses his dad. - Sol Prendido
ReplyDeleteWhat an Idiot
ReplyDeleteJust like his dad. Hahaha dad threatens agents son impersonates them hahaha
DeleteLol he's a goofball.
ReplyDeleteThe nerve of this guy...
ReplyDeleteThis case should be investigated further. Could this badge and even the gun be tied to the DA that was found dead in Matamoros a while back. Look up in Borderland Beat's past articles:

Cameron County assistant DA dies in Matamoros
Cameron County Assistant District Attorney Arturo Jose Iniguez’s death in Matamoros during the weekend continues under investigation.
Why do you assume it's not being investigated further? You think you should be made privy to every facet of this case?
DeleteBadges should contain a badge number in order to identify who that badge was issued to.
ReplyDeleteThey do.
DeleteEven keepsakes badges, but sheriff David Clarke Five buys his badges by the pound on the Internet fLea markets, some people have proven the FORMER sheriff did not earn his badges the right way, he is in the "Cadet Bone Spurs Club" and I suspect he likes spanking too...
DeleteCrime isent for you kid
ReplyDeleteGive the man a TV show, he sounds a whole lot more entertaining than the assholes on TV of late! Seriously though, what a nightmare having him tagging along say, on your birthday bash, or your stag night heh anyone been there?
Delete1:38 fack yeah, man, have him Scared Straight; One minute with four or five guys on tape would do the Miracle Whip, but what if he likes it as other guys did? I think...
Delete"Hinojosa represents Cardenas Jr." Very convenient alibi as defense. "Hinojosa advised him that his keepsakes badge was missing after learning of Cardenas Jr.’s arrest."
ReplyDeleteI wonder if he was paid to say this?
He notified the DA after this cat was arrested? Was he just hoping nobody would notice? Was it just foolishness or something more? Lies and stupidity just keep going on and on....
ReplyDelete1. Smuggling ammo into America, Texas no less; hey dumbie you can buy it here probably as a felon.
Delete2. Threatening other drunks in a bar with arrest & they probably see you for sure drunk.
Tune in next week for more bold answers of why the Gulf just ain’t what it used to be...
He was caught on the US side trying to smuggle the ammo into Mx...
Delete6:59 he got the ammo on the US side, in spite of his convictions and of being a convicted felon.
DeleteAnd to make your ass hurt even more he is a US Citizen.
Como la ves, güey?
Ni modo mi jr
ReplyDeleteJAJAJAJJAJAJJAJAJAJJAJAJ
DeleteJUNIOR FOR PRESIDENT!
DeleteLmaoooo no mame
Deletela familia de este vato a dado su vida para que el no tenga que handar en esos jales. y este vato haciendo pendejadas. nesecita unas cachetadas bien dadas
ReplyDeleteUnas patadas en el culo al jr,mejor 7:05pm.
Delete@7:05
DeleteQue lo encierren unos 6 meses para que se lo claven aver si no pone el culo derecho. Pinche huerco chiflado
Que nos lleven, que nos lleven,
DeleteY que nos la entierren juntos.
E42
OMG E42!! Lol!
DeleteSounds like he gave him his badge for money and then said it was "stolen" once jr was arrested. Nice try D.A. Arrest the D.A immediately for taking bribes and working for organized crime.
ReplyDeleteYeah something shady going on,reporting it after his arrest with the badge,these guys just cant help themselves can they,master criminal hes not what a clown
DeleteEste joven o es un pendejo o solo quiere atencion ponte a estudiar cabron para que deperdido agas algo bueno con la feria que te dejo tu papa y no termines encerrado como un animal.
ReplyDeleteJr's ain't like their dad's, like clumsy chapitos who got kidnapped
ReplyDeleteMaybe, but who's the last narcos to ever get kidnapped, and set free???? Only other one I can think of is Menchito......Hmmmmm...strange coincidence....Funny part of how that ended...Chapitos walk free...Where's Menchito??? Same place he was....and very convenient to grab again anytime. Deals were made. Everyone got a slice. Only ones who took it hard in the ass we're the Damasos. Chapo's ultimate pawn.
DeleteGrande, there's actually been a few that have been kidnapped and released. No big deal.
Delete@April 6, 9:01am, well name them then.
DeleteI’m sure he got the idea after watching the Narcos series on Netflix. Lol
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Did the badge really belong to former DA Hinojosa or the DA found dead in Matamoros? Very questionable I would say. Hmm?
ReplyDeleteI recall his mother asking the judge for help a couple of arrests ago, saying he was "uncontrollable"
ReplyDeleteIsn’t Osiel Jr. in his late 20s or early 30s? Kind of ridiculous for the mother to talk about him like a teenager.
DeleteSome things like people are not meant to be tamed!
DeleteGive credit to moms for trying whatever necessary to bring common sense to this individual. Most parents don’t make any effort!

A good, loving mother never abandons her role. The child she births never ceases being her child, no matter the age. That does not mean she needs to enable bad behavior, but to always be concerned and jump on an opportunity to seek advise or assistance for her errant offspring.
DeleteI think that is what she did in court.
Its well known he isn’t playing with a full deck. He is definitely not his father.
Delete5:18 my brothers 25 years old and still acting like a teenager its the drugs and bad friends !
DeleteHow has this kid still alive? I would've thought Zetas would've exterminated him long ago.
DeleteRight? I almost almost feel like the zetas feel sorry for the guy
Delete@chivis great answear my kids are 10 and 14 but I still see them as my babies and that will never change
DeleteExactly.
DeleteWOW, He can do that in Mexico but in America that a federal crime and he will do time, hope he enjoy his year in jail.
ReplyDeleteNow, there are some guys posing as Arabs dressed in white linens without dunce caps throwing those aluminum pressure cookers on crowded sidewalks or places, and making people flee with terror painted on their faces, but I have laughed so hard, my belly hurts for days, what would be the penalty for that?
DeleteAnother example of bad citizenship is all those people dancing the Harlem Shake, idiots.
"In that footage, Cardenas Jr. can be seen leaving Hinojosa’s office with what appears to be a shiny object hanging around his neck."
ReplyDeleteCan this guy be any more stupid!?!
From what I know about his past indictments, the guy is a complete MORON.
Osiel killed a lot of people. I'm surprised his son can just walk around freely like that. And his lawyer, gave him that badge.
ReplyDeleteIn his worldview, this case and his other convictions bring forth street credibility. He's up there bragging his ass off in the tank. As a client's father once told me, "Vato, everybody in the barrio has felony convictions".
ReplyDelete6:20 how much crack was your client buying?
DeleteAnd don't tell me just yours.
Tony Tormenta el mejor.
ReplyDeleteatte: Escorpion Delta007
We miss you jefe
DeleteDid Osiel ask for a DNA test when junior was born? He looks nothing like him.
ReplyDeleteI see the resemblance, Osiel le gustaba las morenitas
Delete1137am serio? Lmaoooo comment was funny
DeleteImpersonating a US Marshal? Fucking piece of shit. Dangerous and crazy subhuman, kill this fucker or drop him back into Mexico from a chopper.
ReplyDeleteHe is American
Delete9:18 easy there chuck norris rambo eat a snickers bar.
DeletePlaying sherrif, bless his little heart.
ReplyDeleteCanadian girl
Lmaaaoo we shouldn't laugh really, role-play and fantasy games are an important part of a youngsters' intellectual development, surely?
DeleteWhat I want to know is, what happens when he wants to play cowboys and injuns next?
ReplyDeleteBadges? We don't need no stinking badges!
