Meet World’s Most Wanted fugitive Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada – Mexican king pin who can’t be traced

Mica Borderland Beat   Radio Times

Meet World’s Most Wanted fugitive Ismael ‘El Mayo’ Zambada –Mexican king pin who can’t be traced. 

Mexican drug pin Zambada is the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico, one of the most powerful drug trafficking organizations.

Five of the world’s most dangerous criminals will be explored in new Netflix documentary, World’s Most Wanted.

The docuseries examines how five of the world’s most threatening offenders have remained at large – sometimes for more than 25 years – and why cops want to put them behind bars for good.

Mexican drug pin Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada is one of the five fugitives mentioned in the series.

So what exactly did he do? Here’s everything you need to know about the drug lord, who hasn’t been seen in years.

Who is Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada?

Mexican drug pin Zambada is the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico, one of the world’s most powerful drug trafficking organizations.

Zambada, 72, worked with two other big players in the Sinaloa Cartel (Joaquín Guzmán Loera and Juan José Esparragoza Moreno), but after the former was arrested and with the latter supposedly dead, Zambada is now thought to be the leader.

After the crumbling of the Guadalajara Cartel in the 1980s, those involved in the crime network split into two groups.

Zambada was on the Sinaloa side of the split, which grew in terms of influence, power, and money in the 1990s.

By the 2000s he had established his reputation, which according to his wife came with lots of “war”.

Before he assumed leadership of the entire cartel, he served as the logistical coordinator for its Zambada-García faction, which has overseen the trafficking of cocaine and heroin into Chicago and other US cities by train, ship, jet, or narco-submarine.

It’s thought that his old age and diabetes could mean his position within the cartel will soon be affected.

What is he accused of?

Zambada is accused of being a major stakeholder in the international trafficking of high-class drugs.

The State Department reported: “In the late 1990s, Zambada-Garcia emerged as one of the strongest drug traffickers in Mexico, capable of transporting multi-ton quantities of cocaine and marijuana and multi-kilogram quantities of heroin.”

He is thought to traffic drugs to Arizona, California, Chicago, and New York, with an $11 Billion earning a year according to Bloomberg.

Where is he now?

In 2003, the FBI indicated him for a range of crimes, but he wasn’t caught.

Zambada has managed to keep a low profile and hasn’t been seen in years. Insider reported that he is possibly hidden in the mountains of Mexico’s Sinaloa region.

He strangely interviewed with Proceso in 2010, in which he confessed he’d consider suicide to avoid jail time, saying: “I don’t know if I’d have the courage to kill myself. I’d like to think so, that I’d kill myself.”

The World’s Most Wanted is available to stream on Netflix from August 5th.

    4. The Godfather movies condense Many years of True Crime by many organizations and too many gángsters into about 6 hours worth of movies, but Bloombergh accuses el mayo of introducing 11 billion dollars worth of "high class" drugs into the US,
      (220 billion in tweenty years)
      As if he had the monopoly on the money, but nobody can find him or his billions...
      --some have said "mexicans' drug trafficking brings about 500 billion dollars a years into Mexico", but nobody can find them either.
      I hope russian criminal Simeon Mogilevich head of the Red Mafiya can be found on this criminal list, and Simeone can explain how did he got off the FBI's 10 most wanted poster, specially without having died or been captured, the only two ways people get out of there.

    5. 3:33 the funny thing is that the sicarios are suppost to be his body guards!!!! The body guards of the most well taken care of narco!!! The one that no one can pin point but they are giving interviews to an unknown source when they know thats how chapo got caught? If mayo was so smart he would of never ever ever let his body guards give interviews to no one!!!! As a matter of fact in the usa wgen a dealer gives an interview his voice is distorted but in the interview with the head chief of sicarios of mayo you can hear his voice so clear that if you ever hear him talk in public with out a mask you can tell its him! Im also calling this bull shit!

    1. 6:16 El Mayo was ordered to bring in the head of "ese cabrón", but he chose to stick with El Chapo Guzman, the reason was the abduction murder of "el niño de oro", rafael carrillo fuentes? AMADO had something to answer for, maybe the Colombians really had him penetrated and had the CDS become the chosen ones, by orders of Álvaro Uribe Velez to CDS accomplice FECAL, BOTH NOW IN PROBLEMS WITH THE LAW for Mass murdering and forr working with criminals, uribe for being one TOP BOSS...

    1. @9:54 bullshit. The narcos make no billions. Its all government propaganda (US n Mex) to hide the fact that the narcos pay billions in bribes!

      Escobar admitted 30 years ago! that he paid $70million in bribes per MONTH! Today all the cartels together easily pay $700million in bribes per months.

      The government officials have the narcos by the balls and squeeze them hard. Why the fuck don't you think details about bribes are (almost) never brought allowed to be included in trials and plea deals, huh???

    3. @9:12 They have sang on Chapo though. The Zambada clan seems to have decided to go against Guzmanes since some time ago.

      Delete
    4. Chapo sang on himself dumbass. The US govt didn’t need Zambadas for nothing just listen to all those recordings of Chapo talking on the phone and then mas puto w/ Sean Penn. Los Chapitos would have retaliated by now if they really did snitch on Chapo don’t you think?

      Delete
    5. @1:54 The war has started or are you blind. Chapo was getting uncomfortable for the CDS alliane with all the wars Chapo was creating, this is all planned by Zambada since the Calderón days it seems. That's why he sent Vicentillo to meet DEA and get arrested, to keep him safe from ALL the war that was coming (and hasn't ended).

      You should be more polite bro, calling people dumbass while not even living here in Mexico (easy to tell) in narco related topics makes you seem like a real retard.

      I have to say though, Chapo might have agreed on Zambadas doing that at the time but it actually seems that Chapitos didn't take it kindly. Culiacán and Sonora events let you understand what's going on.

      Delete
    6. You should be polite bro, calling people retards. No I am not blind. In narco related topics, I see the deadliest year (easy to tell) for Mexico caused by these stupid proxy wars such as Culiacan and Sonora. And the killings are only going up. So yeah.

    11. I understand the war in CLN and Sonora is going on now with the Chapitos but it has nothing to do with the Zambadas ratting Chapo out. He was getting life with or without Vicentillo, that’s where my problem with your comment was. MZ has been the only loyal one to Chapo for over 30 years. Vincentillo even said so when he testified, Chapo wasn’t his enemy and he testified, but his testimony didn’t add anything to Chapo’s sentence. Did he give up info? Yes. Money? Yes. But any knowledge he had about Chapo was thrown out the window when he escaped from Atiplano. I honestly can’t remember El Rey Zambadas testimony so I may or may not be totally wrong about that. If the Chapitos have any hard feelings towards Mayo after all these years, for whatever reasons, then this is their time to let it all out if they want.

Which means, unless he does something really dumb (highly unlikely) he will be fine until he dies.....if he hasn't already.

Lazcano Barbie Z40 Tuta Chapo Chayo Vicente Carillo Inge el Coss Tony Tormenta Valencia bros Damaso Nacho Coronel el Aguila Z42 Héctor Beltran Dr. Mireles “Azul” Macho Prieto and those are just off the top of my head. I give Mencho credit for strategically advancing himself to the top while others are getting caught and organizations breaking up. Mayo’s 40 years include Felix Gallardo Amado Carillo Fuentes Chapo Los Arellanos RCQ Azul Héctor Palma Nacho Coronel Los Beltran Levy’s Don Neto Pablo Acosta Osiel J. N Guerra J. Garcia Abrego and maybe a few more. I’ll take Mayo’s 40 year reign with all those heavy hitters compared to Mencho’s swift rise.

You guys hate him cause if he keeps it up he will be with out a dought the biggest capo ever!only second to pablo escobar, pablo was really in a league of his own, you can compare amado or chapo or who ever you want but pablo was all of them's boss! Right now the only one that can probably beat him or get to his level is mencho! Lla el mayo se le suve a las gallinas nomas pa que lo carguen! En cambio el señor de los cocks tiene toda la energia del mundo!

      Delete
    6. 9:49 I still think Zambada is more impressive than Mencho because of never ever being in a jail cell. Mencho did some years in the states but that is it. Other than that I agree with you, nobody has risen like Mencho and nobody ever will again. They’re all going to hell anyway so I could care less about hating him

    7. 7:33 yea no one has risen like mencho because they didn’t have the support. Los cunis have always been funding him that’s why he got so much power fast

    1.

Because they cook their drugs in other states where there is zero violence ship their drugs with no issue right into the 50 states Of America also Australia and Asia drugs are shipped daily with all the products they export like metals meat corn and other products. And that’s where his people pay the bribes directly to second level port bosses everywhere in the world and those second level slide the money over to the main chief mayos people never pay off local authorities that’s why he has chapitos to take the media heat and all the other bullshit that comes with the culiacan levantones and political pressure
