"Sajid Emilio Quintero Navidad, alias El Cadete, who turned himself into the American government and who everyone speculates is the one who turned in his uncle Rafael Caro Quintero, today free for having cooperated, but continues his criminal career as he is behind the wave of violence in Ciudad Obregon, Sonora (sic)," reads the banner addressed to AMLO.
On at least three bridges the messages were placed with the name of Roy Antonio, a man who had already been mentioned in other banners placed in October of last year. When Roy Antonio was mentioned in another banner, it could be read that he was related to the La Plaza Cartel, the latter identified as the armed wing of the Caborca Cartel.
Meanwhile, in the recently found material, the aliases of El Nando Arenas, El Tío Bengel and El Pulpo appear. For his part, in January 2018 Sajid Emilio Quintero pleaded guilty to US authorities to conspiracy to distribute drugs in the United States and laundering monetary instruments.
According to the banner, El Cadete would be the one who "delivered" Rafael Caro Quintero, the latter is being held in the Altiplano prison in the State of Mexico, while U.S. authorities expect that he could be extradited next year.
Similar messages in Sonora
It should be noted that the messages found in October last year had a similar structure to those found recently, since they are a white tarpaulin with a red box denouncing violence and addressing the authorities.
On that occasion the message had photographs and was addressed to Governor Alfonso Durazo and federal authorities.
"Alfonso Durazo Montaño and federal authorities, in our Port of Guaymas and Empalme there have been many raids in which most of them rescue people who are kidnapped, all these events are carried out by the Cartel of La Plaza," it could be read on that occasion.

I am surprised Adelmo Nuñez or Lemo Nuñez was not mentioned in the banner when the war started with Chapos-Salazar, Lemo was mentioned as being an ally of Jose Gil and company.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I was thinking Lemo was the one that gave up Caro Quintero since Caro was captured in Choix which is a Lemo Nuñez stronghold.
Lemo has also been associated with Guasave Cartel
Ovidio snitched.
ReplyDeleteSo Sajid snitched on his uncle RCQ to get the bag and freedom. Or maybe Lamo and Ovideo snitched on RCQ. The lesson for you reddit ninos is to stay in school. Narco life is short and full of L's.
ReplyDeleteSajid Emilio Quintero Navidad,El Cadete is actually free and runnin round?What a fuckin joke on everyone.Thought he was still in jug in the U.S ?
ReplyDeleteWho in their right mind would work with a fat rat bastard like him?
It's kind of hard to think Sajid is still working or as that much influence in Sonora anymore
ReplyDeleteHe could be calling shots from phones but he would need a strong team backing his plays and maintaining all the contacts and connections
I think he is out of prison now, and in the US

ReplyDeletethe timing of his sentencing and release with Quintero's capture is worth considering.
