DEA Affirms That 'Mayo' Zambada 'Is Not In Good Health'.

 "Char" for Borderland Beat

MAY 10, 2024. 


The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) said in its 2024 report that Ismael El Mayo Zambada, one of the leaders of the Sinaloa Cartel, is in poor health.


According to the US agency, El Mayo "is not in good health," raising questions about the stability of his leadership of the faction.

This adds to a scenario of internal conflict within the cartel, which the DEA describes as an "umbrella" model comprised of four distinct but collaborative criminal organizations.

Apart from the faction led by El Mayo, the Chapitos, El Guano and Rafael Caro Quintero are all vying for leadership.

This separate structure, according to the DEA, gives the bosses the ability to share resources; however, it notes, that they do not share profits or have to answer to a main chain of command.

Tension within the cartel has been exacerbated in recent years, according to intelligence reports from both DEA and Mexican military sources. Los Chapitos have emerged as a prominent force, challenging Mayo's leadership and seeking to consolidate their influence within the cartel.








HEIR TO THE THRONE "MAYITO FLACO" SON AND SUCCESSOR OF MAYO ZAMBADA

  1. Whether Ismael Zambada García is in bad health or not, now is the time for the Mexican government to stop playing politics and go after El Mayo so he can finally face justice for his crimes.

    2. Capturing this turd alive would be better. Otherwise all of his dick loving supporters will claim that he was never killed.

    3. Mayo already paid both governments too much to be captured. Let Mayo die in peace and in la Sierra.

      Delete
    4. Whenever it's all done and dusted MZ is probably going down as a Mexicos biggest narco over Miguel Angel and Amado

    5. The only way I could see Mayo or Mencho being captured is if their inner circle is severely dismantled to the point where if they do fall there is no reliable leader to take their place.

    9. I think its more than the money Mayo has paid Mexico's government and the help he has provided in conjunction with DEA. He also knows too many dirty secrets and both sides are afraid of what he could expose if he was captured.

    2. 8:01 you never heard much about Chapitos when Chapo was outside, MZ sons might also get challenged by Chavo Felix, Ruso etc for the throne just like Chapitos did by Damasos once MZ out of picture, things will definitely change by how much who knows

      Delete
    3. I feel like mayito flaco will be much more seasoned by the time his father passes then Ivan was when chapo went away. Assuming he’s been practically running the MZ faction and we never hear much about him like we do the chapitos.

  11. The thing alot of people don't understand is that MZ is already out the game. The old man done paid millions and gave up who he had to give up to live out his last days as a free man .

  28. Dumb. Stupid. Misinformation or half truths. How could the dea possibly know first hand that this info is true, without knowing his location ? And if they obviously know his location, then why is he a free man still?
    They don't nickname him the "old guard" for no reason. Trust me if the sons of Chapo could've had him killed- or he was able to be killed, he wouldn't still be alive. Chapo made a literal deal with the devil and was a connoisseur of small children literally, called them his "vitamins". Even then, Chapo never was and could never be the leader of the cartel. He's never been royal blood, and his children won't ever be either .

    Think about this, CIA rel are this type of news that Mr mayo is not doing well, these creates uncertainty then chaos then split within its organization. CIA tried similar news about Mencho that he was dying, you guys have to analyze great minded like me.

  42. What earth shattering info from the intelligence apparatus! An 80+ year old man hiding in the small mountain communities for years and possibly decades is not in tip top health. Very very good chance both he and mencho are and have been dead. Forget a front boss to take the heat, they still know some things and can be caught. A dead all time powerful boogie man boss is the ultimate screen. Would also be very easy today with the tools available to sprinkle some signals intel of their “voice” and digital trail when needed to keep them alive in the eyes of enemies, political, narco, and legal.

  47. Mayo might be in bad health but he can build a medical facility in the Durango Sierra at any time. He is old but not that old. He can easily be the son of Warren Buffet, George Soros or Rupert Murcdoch. Yet no one says anything about their age.
