Colima governor
confirmed the death of Luis Antonio Torres "El Americano", ex-member
of the self-defense groups in Michoacán and designated as a member of organized
crime. The murder was conducted during the attack on a popular nightclub in
Manzanillo.
The attack occurred on Saturday night, outside the
"Bar Nudus" nightclub, located on the Miguel de la Madrid coastal
boulevard.
It was there that Luis
Antonio Torres "El Americano" died.
Torres moved from Michoacán to Colima several months
ago, since the beginning of the year. In social networks, inhabitants of the
terracaliente region, reported having no news of his whereabouts, they speculated
he was dead.
El Americano formed the
"H3" group, which supposedly fought the criminal groups that operated
in Tierra Caliente.
After the
disintegration of the self-defense groups, he became part of the Rural Forces, created by
the then Commissioner for Security and Integral Development of the State of
Michoacán, Alfredo Castillo Cervantes. Cervantes appointed Torres as a leader, which
outraged many who suspected he was working for Los Viagras.
Luis Antonio Torres was
related to both the criminal group Los Viagras and the Cartel Jalisco Nueva
Generación.
Here is one of the videos that I have referred to and posted previously. In this video, a member
of Viagras is interrogated, he reveals he is from Pinzandaro and works for
Viagras, El Americano, and Mencho leader of CJNG is mentioned. The video surfaced last September.
When he was stopped, he
states he was transporting money for gas and food for Viagras.
He says he works at the
drug kitchens in el Valle, and that he Viagra production is for Mencho. He says besides the drugs he also is involved
in the kidnappings.
This offered further
proof of Luis Antonio Torres', aka
"Simon El Americano" collusion with Viagras. Americano was rumored to operate the majority
of the drug kitchens in Michaocán. Yet
he was appointed by Commissioner Castillo to be one of the three commanders of
the EPN backed Rurales, and commander of
an "elite" team searching for La Tuta"
Readers will recall when
myself and Pepe a contributor from Michoacán, spotted who we thought was El Americano,
walking in video footage of La Tuta and the leader of Viagras, having a verbal
confrontation. I took screenshots and created a post of Torres then a leader of the
federal government police group Rurales.
The screenshots went viral, he was detained and “investigation” by Michoacana was conducted, but they allowed Torres to go free, saying “it wasn’t him”.
I posted the photo
several times on BB and on social networks.
It did not seem to get much mainstream media attention. A few months passed, then Reforma saw it, and
other media sites like LaVoz and
Quadratin posted my photo, and are saying the photo is making the rounds of
social media. "Pepe" a BB
contributor posted the links and asked me "isn't this your
photo?". It sure is.
You can see where they cropped BB off...no
matter, it is mine, and the "of" word in English is a dead give away
that it did not come from Mexico.
The screenshots went viral, he was detained and “investigation” by Michoacana was conducted, but they allowed Torres to go free, saying “it wasn’t him”.
But it was.

I saw this happen.
ReplyDeleteYou seen americano get killed??? Holy shit .tell us about it if so
DeleteI think he means he saw it coming
DeleteTheres a video where cjng mutilates a guy alive cut his legs and arms while alive, he claimed worked for viagras...anyone have info on that video?
Delete2:33 yes! I know all about it, "you live one block away"
DeleteAnd then you woke up.
Delete9.12
DeleteHe speaks the truth,the guy gets his legs and arms cut off while chained by the neck,they even beat him with his legs,all while he is perfectly lucid.
12:38
DeleteHow did he get captured?! Poor dude
He gave Mora and Mireles a good challenge. Hahaha
ReplyDelete4:13 it cost Hipólito Mora his son,
Deletewhat's so mothefacking funny pendejo...
What ever became of Papa Pitufo who was alleged to be tied in with this guy after the demise of the original self-defense groups?
ReplyDeleteI think he falls under the “calladito te ves mas bonito” (The quieter you are the prettier you look) program

What's up with Tuta any prison reports on him, is he still suffering from the illness he had?
Delete2:10 la puta tuta still suffers from his almorranas, but bigger,

This site has become such a Chivis nuthugger “look at me” thing, what a disgrace. Used to be about the news and the people who posted got the deserved respect, not with her running it now. Such a shame, just can’t read this site anymore...it a joke now.
ReplyDeleteBut still you keep on coming back for more ... like a whiney trash whore u seem to be
Delete0451 de nutthugger, ya don't like it here, the door is open. I am sorry they were not able to accommodate you. I am offering you a vocher, one way ticket to Manzanillo Mexico.
Delete4:51 You dont make sense and you appear to contradict yourself.
DeleteAn unpaid volunteer, anonymously blogging,
DeleteThese reporters never get enough credit.
ps and great job chivis in giving us an education on this lowlife
DeleteSounds like you and Americano were buddies. He must have not invited you out to join him when he was killed. And whoever did eliminate Americano...kudos!!
DeleteLet's stick to the topic. No more comments will be posted regarding 4:51am. he has the right to feel that way, although these sort of personal attacks take away from the post. and Thank you for the support.
DeleteDam get that clown outta here
DeleteChivis, you see how fast you get defended. We have your back out here ma’am.

DeleteChivis, are you a female?

@4:1 Martillo, you must really be a newbie. If you asked almost any reader "Who is the Grand Lady of Borderland Beat?" the would without hesitation say "Chivis".

I’ve discovered this beautiful blog something like two months ago.

Welcome Martillo to BB family.
DeleteWell Chivis, things have a way to get back on track, kongratlations.

DeleteReal Autodefensas? Let me guess Mireles and Hipolito Mora.

ReplyDeleteHow corrupt in the Colima govt? I'm not saying they are, but I'm cautious about celebrating. Too many get declared dead only to pop up later.
ReplyDelete6:59 Extremely
DeleteThis guy was in Autodefensas, then got recruited by government, and was in cartels, I am glad he got killed. More to wipe out.
ReplyDelete@7:26
DeleteYeah compa, you are right, he is a fucking traitor.
El Martillo
He was working for viagras, cjng took him out. You know cjng has colima plaza, Sinaloa got smashed and went to Durango or Sonora where there is no competition
ReplyDeleteSinaloa ran the game for 50 yrs and you sound very mad and upset about that fact. Mencho cant even take Guadalajara from Maro and Cholo lol. Cant even control his own state at the height of his power.
DeleteWhy do they even approve comments like 8:15? You have a guy stating good info with facts. And along comes an angry troll posting the same nonsense everytime crying that sinaloa is better and mencho is nothing. This website is becoming junk.
Delete8:15 they did their thing but now that there is competition, they are losing power. Not mad, I can care less. Just facts like you said. I don't get paid and not even Mexican
Deleteagree 7:36 it was cjng
DeleteMarro is dead and Colima is cjng even some parts of Durango Cjng contros but cheerleaders going to say I’m wrong
Delete@10:13 jajajajaj Durango CJNG jajaja man these cjng cheerleaders are on another level of kissing Menchos ass
Deleteplease tell us how and when u find out marro is dead ? mr cheearleader ! by the way f@#$k marro mencho cholo etc etc
Delete10:13 - I dont know man. You'd think killing Marro would be blasted everywhere, if it happened. CJNG would surely want to show him as an example, right?
DeletePhelpso
@10:13, That’s a different Marro you are thinking about. Marro from GTO is still alive.
DeleteCheck B.B. they put the story here awhile back
DeleteThis is Mencho's MO, he recruits makes alliances, for a goal. reaches the goal, in this case to control Michoacan, using viagras for warring and Americano to set up H3 fake autodefensas. remember when Lito Mora was helicoptered out of Buenavista? It was a 50 vehicle convoy and americano after his ass.
DeleteAmericano was responsible for the death of Lito's son.
Parts of Durango under cjng control? Colima controlled by cjng LOL. Chivis please check your boys. You publish comments that have no sources just hear say. Cjng doesnt even have Guadalajara under any control and were supposed to read comments like mencho is in Durango and believe this hasnt tirned into a cjng fan club. Be real cjng has lost a very good portion of what they had just 12 months ago. Bias journalism 101
Delete@515PM Borderland Beat does not write the comments that are posted and I doubt that most of the readers who post comments claim to be journalist. We have never asked those readers for a source before they can write a comment. That would kind of defeat the purpose of a open Forum where readers can express what is on their mind.
DeleteAs to your statement the "we're"(not "were") supposed to read.... You are not supposed to or required to read any of them. Your decision. But you are free to respond to any comment and ask the person what his source his. How if I may ask does that make BB "Bias Journalism."
Sorry but since you don't understand how a blog (with comments) works I will have to give you a failing grade in Journalism 101.
5:15 no cartel has a plaza under control pendejo! Name one... Sinaloa cartel doesn't live up to its name because the Beltranes and chapo it isidro keep pushing them further from their plazas. Cartel del golfo is all split up in 8 or 9 subgroups all fighting each other. Juarez cartel doesn't have Juarez and cartels like CDs are there still fighting for that plaza that nobody will control. Cartel jalisco nueva Generation is the same with el cholo trying to call shots and take the plaza while he's in hiding.. I will be waiting for your answer lol
DeleteColima was once part of Michoacán just like Sonora was once part of Sinaloa many years ago there’s also other states look it up
Delete5:15 I just saw this, sorry usually the comments sent to me are left for me to see.
DeleteYes I know and I struggle with what you point out. My solution is to interject my opinion or post facts as I know it as a counter. You can help jt by doing the same....Paz
9:05 The guy didnt state any facts what are you even crying about? He was cheerleading for cjng and then you got mad that someone was cheerleading for cds how ironic lmao. U must be new here.
DeleteI dont trust here. where photo of his body.. Any source about killed him? Proof?
ReplyDeleteI don't trust your confusing comment bro
Deletehe is saying there is no foto so he is not convinced. I sat on the story for a day because of no confirmation. today the gov confirmed, BUT the shooting was outside and it bothers me also that there is a lack of fotos.
DeleteChivis, someone has to have a picture specially semefo they always take pictures of the deceased. if it’s really americano then they should release it To confirm this right? Just like they did with the past drug lords.
DeleteCochiloco,Amado,Ramon Arturo,Chayo,Arabe,Kike and lascano.

@4;31 There are no Russians invading BB but there might be some Russian bots that try to post comments. Are you one of those. Makes me wonder if you think "executioner" sounds Russian. That term, "executioner" has been in use in the Western world since the middle ages or before. You need to work on your vocabulary.
Deletelol @dd
DeleteI believe @4:31 meant what ex wrote not the name ex.
It's written like how a rus would talk eng.
I agree El Gallo. this bothered me. but the gov did confirm. maybe he will rise from the dad like CHayo
DeleteDD are you that big of a libtard you think russian bots have invaded BB? Put your tinfoil hat away and take your meds.
DeleteAre you guys sure he’s dead? He can be pulling a chayo on us too.
ReplyDeleteI’m just saying, well will see in the next couple of days for that photo comparison
Do you want a DNA sample
DeleteYou don't trust the cartels, you don't trust the government, now you don't trust the news, perhaps a finger can be sent to you via the mail system.
DeleteChayo is dead, been dead.
Deleteyep...chayo died twice. remember the gov said he was dead for years in a massive sierra balacera. even though the citizens said they saw him all over the sierras. they were correct and he was killed for sure the second time.
Deletethat is why the reader said don't pull a chayo.
@10:03
DeleteYou have a point there. Now Corruption is at its best these day that someone with good connections and $$ can fake death. It has happen before and chayo is a good example of it,
along with the other rumors witch some included Wilber Varela
-El Gallo
4:22 he faked it 2 times and got killed for sure the 3rd tine
DeleteMexican Federal Police commander fired for being corrupt, a torturer and a murderer, Francisco Sahagún Vaca was famous for his dirty deeds until he got fired and went back to michoacan to fake his death..."La Tumba Olvidada de Francisco Sahagún Vaca" by Héctor De Mauleón, NEXUS.Colima governor may have got paid to declare El Mamericano dead, because of many reasons.
DeleteWhat ever happened to Broly Banderas???
ReplyDeleteFrom what I’ve been told, he died a while back.
DeleteHe is not dead. Texcoco, who got the interview with him, contacted the go between for him about a year or so ago. He moved back to Sinaloa, he said he was burned out
DeleteHe should do a book. "Con Pepino metido y vin Cuerno de Chivo.
Delete@4:17 PM Im sure he´s pretty dead, I remember on an interview he gave when his facebook account was still activated.. that he looked paranoid, besides Tuta even talked about him, and it seemed that he wantet him dead, because he was making to much "noise"
DeleteBroly is still alive.
DeleteChivis, was he from Sinaloa? It seems like a dangerous move. Wouldn't this make him a huge target for both michoacanos AND chinolas?? Can he leave the business just like that?
DeleteAlso, what happened to comandante perro?? Did he also burn out??
BB, thanks for all you do!!
that is not tuta's position, he was smiling talking about how popular broly was.
DeleteEl broly is from Sinaloa, michoacanos are not that desperate for attention. Specially if they are in a cartel, that pendejo has a target on his head just because he thought he was cool and tough working for La Tuta
Delete...'' PGJ de Colima desmiente asesinato de “El Americano”
ReplyDeletehttps://www.laotraopinion.com.mx/pgj-de-colima-desmienten-asesinato-de-el-americano/
Is he the same "el americano" los hijos de barron sing about?
ReplyDeleteNo he is not the same "el americano" los hijos de barron sing about. The one Hijos de Barron sing about is part of CDS.
DeleteCool. Thanks!
DeleteIs that arabe’s pistol that he is showing as a trophy?
ReplyDeleteNope. It was his. El Gordo kept Arabes pistol.
DeleteIt says American not arabe in hi sc gun tonto
DeleteEl Comandante 5 (por lo apestoso a Cinco Hindú) was shown in a photo showing the gold plated gun property of his beloved friend El Pollo whose murder he chalks to Mireles and his Auto Defensas, but how do did that gun end in comandante 5's hands?
DeleteThe guns from el arabe a jalisco cell leader in michoacan were taken from him by his killers and given to a rival allegedly. Thats whats theyre referring to above.

ReplyDeleteKnowing that these swine are replaced often by worse I seldom, if ever have celebrated the deaths of these villains whose misdeeds I enjoy following so much.
ReplyDeleteWith that said there is a special place in hell for the upper echelons of Los Viagras. They are a different level of scum and I only wish I could have affected his death personally. Anyone who cuts the heart out of a living 8 year olds body after being forced to watch his father being tortured and killed....I can’t speak my full mind as the post would never be allowed on the forum.
Wtf they took the heart out of an 8 year old? Mexico and is People are condenmed for ALLOWING things like this happen.
DeleteI feel the same way. Travesty.

12:10 are u mad bro
Delete12:10 accusing "the mexicans" of allowing shit demonizes them, it looks like part of a demonizing campaign, same way the Mexican military treat everybody they meet as animals hijos or hijas de su puta madre and believe the women to be enemies goo only for one thing like rape before murdering them.
DeleteHate the Mexican criminals all you want, but do not accuse a whole country's population because your mouth is a big ass...
Asi es la Vida del narco.
ReplyDeleteYou think mencho can trust Americano after he flipped on his old boss(tuta). Rules of the game if they do it once they'll do it again.

Chivis there’s this new crew calling them selfs los 5 del Pueblo in Michoacan, could they be cjng or templarios?
ReplyDeleteThey're are locals from Buena Vista Michoacan that are tired of the Viagras. One of them had there brothers kidnapped and killed by them. So they are taking up arms again there.
DeleteChayo is still alive my buddy was in michoacan as a auto defensa said they never found any thing when they raided his houses.... u think really think he was riding a mula back from his girlfriend's house during midnight like the govt said...lol
ReplyDeleteHis own defense personal best him to death. After, killing one of them, forgetting one of his brothers was there. He talked to the rest saying they were going to end up like that. Thereforw, they decided to beat him to death. They were hiding in LA Sierra during this, tater military activity in the towns nearby.
DeleteOtro que cae por las viejas

DeleteLínea Directa said there in no evidence that he was killed.
ReplyDeleteMore than one news outlets have said there is no evidence that he died.
ReplyDeleteSo your saying the governor is a lair???? He went to the morge where is smells like hell. He saw him in de freezer man.
Delete7:09 nobody mexican becomes governor without lying his ass off
Delete849 Chivis published 7-19-18, that it was fake news ,fken governor lied to the public, even Otis got fooled.
DeleteHe died outside of the strip club, had no money to get in.
ReplyDeleteCan't form an Autodefensas , as the Cartels will currupt the members.
ReplyDeleteDoesnt his alleged presence in Manzanillo fall in line with a lot of the narco-messages being posted in Manzanillo over the past few months. Several of them mentioned that the CDS would be calling on the LFNM (aka Los Viagras) to be sent into Colima. Americano may have been that support sent to fight against the CJNG. Some reports state that he was representing the Colima Cartel which is aligned with the CDS and allowed them to gain access to Colima several years ago.
ReplyDeleteYour wrong, cjng and amescuas have been allies for a long time now. Plus cds does NOT call shots for la nueva familia michoacan. If anything, cds and lnfm are teaming up to take BACK the plazas they both lost to cjng..
DeleteCds are desperately trying tu o get Colima plaza from cjng and lnfm are desperately trying to get michoacan back.. crazy too think how much damages cjng had done to both cartels
Deleteactually Gerardo Mendoza Chávez aka Don Gera, was plaza boss in colima
Delete(witch got killed in puente grande not long ago) is the one who finance el americano when he join the autodefensas in buenavista don gera was fighting cjng in colima
