Poza Rica, Veracruz: Grupo Escorpión Sends A Message To Cuitláhuac García Jiménez

"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat

A follow up video to an article released by Borderland Beat has recently surfaced online. For this broadcast a lone spokesperson from Grupo Escorpión sends a direct message to Cuitláhuac García Jiménez, Governor of Veracruz. 

The open snitching of criminals within the Mexican underworld is a very commonplace affair. This peculiar tactic used by ruffians is nothing more than a tool employed to smear politicians that may or may not be involved in illicit affairs. 

Video translation is as follows:

Governor, have you come to Poza Rica to give the townspeople their pills or to receive the extortion fees from the sweat of citizens that for years you've received from delinquents?

We've opted to take up arms in order for the townspeople to be heard. You've acted as nothing more than a bullfighter here whenever those filthy dogs aligned with El Cocos coordinate their kidnappings against businessmen or honest citizens. 

Can you not hear the pain of families affected by this? What did you do to the individuals who kidnapped and killed Ashley Malixi Miranda Pérez? You let the murderers go free even after all the proof was provided. 

Besides this, you also have knowledge that El Coocs has an order of arrest for the murder of journalist Maria Elena Ferral. On this matter, you act like you're deaf. What about the abduction and subsequent murder of Police Commander Luis Quinto? Did you even bother to show your face there?

Of course you didn't, right? You left him on his own so that these dogs could kill him with complicit help from Commander Celaya. At this point, we can assuredly say that the townspeople have more confidence in us than that gang of criminal delinquents that you have as representatives of the law. 

Your counterparts need to remind you that it's time for you to end your charade. Make sure you take pictures of this so that we can ask for your commendations. Governor, this town currently looks savage as fuck. 

Governor Cuitláhuac García Jiménez
