[323], FBI agents have claimed that the Gulf Cartel moves millions of dollars in cash through the Rio Grande Valley each month, a tempting amount for many U.S. Authorities believe that Gonzlez Pizaa reincorporated in organized crime and decided to join with the Gulf Cartel to end the war with Los Zetas, and bring back the "old school" ways when they were together. [244] In the border city of Reynosa, 85 inmates escaped from a prison on 10 September 2010. [293] In addition, the Mexican drug cartels also tax several Mexican businesses inside the United States and threaten them with property damage and murder if they do not comply.[294]. [103] However, continual disagreement was leading the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas into an inevitable rupture. [249] A confrontation inside a maximum security prison in Nuevo Laredo on 15 July 2011, left 7 inmates dead and 59 escaped. [143] La Jornada newspaper mentioned that over 80 SUV's packed with gunmen fought to protect Crdenas Guilln, and over 300 grenades were used in the shootout that day. [259] In June 2011, the state government of Tamaulipas requested the federal government to send in troops to combat the drug cartels in the area, to "consolidate actions on public safety" and "strengthen the capacity of their institutions. [248] The federal government "strongly condemned" the prison breaks and said that the work by the state and municipal authorities of Tamaulipas "lack effective control measures" and urged them to strengthen their institutions. [227] On 30 January 2012, the Attorney General of Mexico issued a communiqu ordering the past three governors of Tamaulipas and their families to remain in the country as they are being investigated for possible cooperation with the Mexican drug cartels. [1], The U.S. Department of State was offering up to US$5 million for information leading to his arrest and/or conviction. For example, the drug producers and suppliers,[284] although not considered in the basic structure, are critical operators of any drug cartel, along with the financers and money launderers. "[218], Although drug-related violence has existed since the early beginnings of the Gulf Cartel, it often happened in low-profile levels, while the government agreed to "look the other way" while the drug traffickers went about their businessas long as they behaved. He was the first drug trafficker to be on that list. The majority of the commerce between the United States and Mexico passes through the state of Texas. [341], Jess Enrique Rejn Aguilar, a top-tier Los Zetas boss, was caught on 3 July 2011, and claimed in an interview that was aired on national television that the Gulf Cartel, unlike Los Zetas, has an "easier and quicker access to arms in the United States", and probably works "with some people in the government" to traffic weapons south of the U.S. [352] Due to its multifaceted transportation networks and proximity to major production areas right across the border in Mexico, Texas is a major hub for drug trafficking. Felipe Cabrera Sarabia, conocido como el "Inge", fue durante mucho tiempo un lugarteniente de Ismael el "Mayo" Zambada y Joaqun el "Chapo" Guzmn. [246] On 5 April 2010, in the same prison, a convoy of 10 trucks filled with gunmen broke into the cells and liberated 13 inmates, and the authorities later mentioned that 11 of them were "extremely dangerous. He is also a former member of the Federal Judicial Police in Tamaulipas. [324] Much of the money stays in the area, which has caused several officialsboth federal and stateto succumb to the "easy money aspect" the drug money has to offer. [97] Lieutenants that were once loyal to Crdenas began following the commands of Lazcano, who tried to reorganize the cartel by appointing several lieutenants to control specific territories.Morales Trevio was appointed to look over Nuevo Len;[98] Jorge Eduardo Costilla Snchez in Matamoros;[99] Hctor Manuel Sauceda Gamboa, nicknamed El Karis, took control of Nuevo Laredo;[100] Gregorio Sauceda Gamboa, known as El Goyo, along with his brother Arturo, took control of the Reynosa plaza;[101] Arturo Basurto Pea, alias El Grande, and Ivn Velzquez-Caballero alias El Talibn took control of Quintana Roo and Guerrero;[102] Alberto Snchez Hinojosa, alias Comandante Castillo, took over Tabasco. Het Golfkartel bestaat sinds 1930, toen Juan Nepomuceno Guerra ( 18 juli 1915 - 12 juli 2001) alcohol begon te smokkelen tijdens de drooglegging. The group was known for its violent tactics and tight organizational structure. The intense shootings provoked the temporary closure of three international bridges in Matamoros,[139] along with the University of Texas at Brownsville, just across the border. [38] According to The Brownsville Herald, Garca brego went into the courtroom grinning and talking animatedly with his lawyers who helped him translate his words from Spanish into the English language. [296] The Mexican military mentioned that in the states of Tamaulipas and Nuevo Leon, where the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas fight for territory, abductions are carried out very commonly. The 2012 Nuevo Laredo massacres were a series of mass murder attacks between the allied Sinaloa Cartel and Gulf Cartel against Los Zetas in the border city of Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, across the U.S.-Mexico border from Laredo, Texas. [213], The drug violence and political corruption that has plagued Tamaulipas, the home state of the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas, has fueled thoughts of Tamaulipas becoming a "failed state" and a haven for drug traffickers and criminals of all kinds.

Le cartel du Golfe est l'un des plus puissants cartel de la drogue mexicain, avec le cartel de Sinaloa, duquel il se serait rapproch en 2009 : eux deux, ils disposeraient de 100 000 hommes arms selon le ministre de la Dfense des tats-Unis [1]. [180] When the Gulf cartel and Los Zetas split in early 2010, some members of the Rojos stayed with the Gulf cartel, while others decided to leave and join the forces of Los Zetas. [156][157][158][159][160][161][162] The death of Antonio Crdenas Guillen also caused a spiral of violence in Reynosa, Tamaulipas a number of days after he was killed. Un tiroteig que ha tingut lloc la matinada d'aquest dilluns a l municipi de Goshen (ubicat al comtat de Tulare, estat de Califrnia, als Estats Units) ha deixat 6 morts, inclosos una mare de 17 anys i el seu nad de 6 mesos, segons han informat les autoritats locals. [334] Bank accounts inside the United States also launder millions of dollars for the drug lords of the Gulf Cartel. It is the first time in 87 years, a governor from the opposition wins in the state. Malherbe tried to bribe officials $2million for his release, but it was denied. The Mexican criminal organizations like the Gulf Cartel launder money through counterfeiting, since they are free from taxes and more accessible to people who cannot buy original products. [278] Below is the basic structure of the cartel: It's worth noting that there are other operating groups within the drug cartels. Although its founder Juan Nepomuceno Guerra smuggled alcohol in large quantities to the United States during the Prohibition era, and heroin for over 40 years,[15] it was not until the 1980s that the cartel was shifted to trafficking cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana under the command of Juan Nepomuceno Guerra and Juan Garca brego. [104], In 2007, Crdenas was extradited to the United States and charged with the involvement of conspiracies to traffic large amounts of marijuana and cocaine, violating the "continuing-criminal-enterprise statute" (also known as the "drug kingpin statute"), and for threatening two U.S. federal officers. When drug trafficking tightens, they usually invest in more sophisticated methods to smuggle drugs, recruit new members, corrupt more officials, seek new ways to remove obstacles that impede the immediate success of the organization, along with many others. [138], The confrontations started around 10:00am, and extended to 06:00pm, around the time Crdenas Guiln was killed. [198][199], The rumors of the broken alliance between the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas began on blogs and mass emails in September 2009, but it remained pretty much the same throughout that yeara rumor. And in doing so, they inherently become a "competitor" with the state, who also claims sovereignty over its territories. [63] In response to the rising power of the Gulf Cartel, the rival Sinaloa Cartel[77] established a heavily armed, well-trained enforcer group known as Los Negros. [322] A retired FBI agent and expert in drug trafficking explained that the Gulf Cartel "relied on bribery" to build its drug empire and consolidate its prominence. In 2010 he was named in a U.S. federal indictment with 19 other high-ranking drug lords of La Compaa (The Company), a name used to describe the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas as a conglomerate. Government officials state that there are currently 400-500 official members of the Mexican Mafia with thousands of hitmen and . [117], Nevertheless, other sources also reveal that Antonio Crdenas Guilln, brother of Osiel and one of the successors of the Gulf Cartel, was addicted to gambling, sex, and drugs, leading Los Zetas to consider his leadership as a threat to the organization. [61] His goal was to protect himself from rival drug cartels and from the Mexican military, to perform vital functions as the leader of the most powerful drug cartel in Mexico. [327], Theft [42], In addition, it was brought up that Garca brego had previously been arrested in Brownsville, Texas for six-year-old auto theft charges, but was released later with no charges whatsoever. [64] They were enticed with salaries much higher than those of the Mexican Army. [345] The products sold can be clothing, TVs, video games, music, computer programs, and movies. [70] Between 2001 and 2008, the organization of the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas was collectively known as La Compaa (The Company). [144] And even after the drug lord was killed, the roadblocks continued throughout the rest of the day. [106] In 2010 he was finally sentenced to 25 years in prison after being charged with 22 federal charges;[107] the courtroom was locked and the public prevented from witnessing the proceeding. Moreover, the Mexican drug traffickers often use small boats to transport drugs through the coastal areas of South Texas, usually operating at night to prevent them from being spotted by law enforcement officials. [178], Unconfirmed information released by The Monitor indicated that two leaders of the Rojos, Meja Gonzlez and Rafael Crdenas Vela, teamed up to kill Flores Borrego. By Chris Arsenault [3] Some media outlets also referred to him by another name, Efran Snchez Castillo. [336], Arms trafficking [305] When victims are kidnapped by the drug cartels on American territory, kidnappers usually hide them in the trunk of a car and take them to Mexico. [309], Before 2010, it was not clear whether the Gulf Cartel controls the human trafficking business in its territory or whether it simply taxes operators for using their smuggling corridors. There is a circle of experts who believe that the start of the Mexican Drug War did not begin in 2006 (when Felipe Caldern sent troops to Michoacn to stop the increasing violence), but in 2004 in the border city of Nuevo Laredo, when the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas fought off the Sinaloa Cartel and Los Negros. [131][132], Costilla was often viewed as the "strongest leader" of the two, but collaborated with Antonio Crdenas, who acted as representative of his jailed brother. [186] The U.S. National Drug Threat Assessment mentioned that the drug trafficking organizations like the Gulf Cartel tend to be less structured in U.S. than in Mexico, and often rely on street gangs to operate inside the United States. [194] In 2009, the Gulf organization concluded that expanding their market opportunities in Europe, combined with the euro strength against the U.S. dollar, justified establishing an extensive network in that continent. [211], On 10 November 2014, a document from the Mexican government was released to the media and claimed that Los Rojos faction of the Gulf Cartel was planning to ally with Los Zetas. [325] The Gulf Cartel also bribes journalists to persuade them not to mention any violent incidents in the media. "[63] Consequently, Guzmn Decenas deserted from the Armed Forces and brought more than 30 army deserters to form part of Crdenas' new criminal paramilitary wing. [96] Through his violence and intimidation, Heriberto Lazcano took control of both Los Zetas and the Gulf Cartel after Cardenas' extradition. Miguel Angel Trevino Morales, leader of the Los Zetas cartel, was captured at dawn on July 15 by Mexican Marines who waylaid a truck with $2 million in cash outside the border city of Nuevo Laredo. [214] The massacre of the 72 migrants and the clandestine mass graves with more than 250 bodies in San Fernando, Tamaulipas,[215][216] mounted with the assassination of the governor candidate Rodolfo Torre Cant (2010),[217] the increasing violence generated between drug groups, and the state's inability to ensure tranquility, has led specialists to conclude that "neither the regional nor federal government have control over the territory of Tamaulipas. The Zetas' emergence also offered a hint of the challenge for the Mexican state. [84][85] Crdenas Guilln demanded the agents and the informant to get out of their vehicle, but they refused to obey his orders. "[12][A 2], He was then extradited to the United States from Mexico on 19 August 2011 to face charges on drug trafficking. [1][6] While in power, Cano Flores also worked with Los Zetas, a criminal organization formed in the late 1990s by ex-commandos of the Mexican Army who served as the Gulf Cartel's paramilitary wing. Court documents indicated that Garca brego was bribing several law enforcement officials, prosecutors, and politicians on both sides on the border to keep himself impune and untouched. It operates in more than half of the country's 32 states. [13] The members of the Gulf Cartel are known for intimidating the population and for being particularly violent.[14]. [165][166] United States President, Barack Obama, called the President of Mexico, Felipe Caldern, congratulating him and the Mexican forces for the operation in Matamoros, and reiterated his effort against organized crime. [300] The Mexican Lucha libre wrestler Lzaro Gurrola, known as the Estrella Dorada (Golden Star), was also arrested for kidnapping people for the Gulf Cartel. In Western Europe, the primarily increase has been in the use of cocaine. Los Negros (disbanded) Crtel del Noreste. [251] Consequently, the federal government did not hesitate to assign the Mexican Army and the Federal Police to vigilate the prisons until further notice; they were also left in charge of searching for the fugitives. [318] --> [105] The standoff the two agents had with the drug lord in 1999 in the city of Matamoros, Tamaulipas led for the U.S. to indict Crdenas and pressure the Mexican government to capture him. [115] According to narco-banners left by the Gulf Cartel in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, and Reynosa, Tamaulipas, the reason for their rupture was that Los Zetas had expanded their operations to include extortion, kidnapping, assassinations, theft, and other actions with which it disagreed.
