Tamaulipas, Mexico.- On social media a video of the councilor of the municipality of Miguel Aleman, Herbey Barrera García, who disappeared on March 9, is said to be a member of the Gulf Cartel.

Guarded by two armed men of large caliber, Barrera García claims to be a collaborator of Jesús Garza Moreno, "Chuy Nalgas" , helping to traffic drugs in to the United States.

According to Reforma , those who filmed the video are members of the Northeast Cartel.

"We are not taking innocent people, much less kidnapping, if there's one thing this cartel cares about it's money, you Servando López Moreno, there is your narcoregio Herbey Barrera Garcia that you've been looking so hard for."

Last Saturday Mayor Servando Lopez reported that Barrera was heading to his ranch in the town of El Nogalito, but he never reached his destination. The disappearance was blamed on the constant fights between cartels that take place in the area.

In the video, the regidor says that Martín Garza, Mario Alonso Garza, "El Monky", "El Pasteles", 

Lalo, Yesca,   La Millie from the Sarabia colonia, Dando, Fidel González from the Gonzalez butcher shop in the Barrera neighborhood. They all work for the Gulf Cartel

Since in each confrontation he runs to hide in your fucking presidency. Or you did you not know that Commander Big Foots has been working as a worker...
