Mexico finds killing drug kingpins can add to mayhem

MEXICO CITY — Last week's killing of the top drug lord in the Gulf Cartel marked the second takedown of a major capo in Mexico in a little over two months.
And it raised a question: Why doesn't Mexico kill or capture more of the top narcotics cartel barons destabilizing the country?
In law enforcement circles, this is known as the "kingpin strategy," the aim being to decapitate major narcotics syndicates battling one another and threatening the state.
Experts in Mexico and the United States say the strategy also has a real downside. The costs are illustrated by what has happened in Matamoros, across the border from Brownsville in Texas, since the killing last Friday of Gulf Cartel leader Antonio Cardenas Guillen.
Rather than calming Matamoros, Cardenas' death may unleash a power struggle among underlings within the Gulf Cartel, a top Mexican security official has warned.
"In the short term, this will certainly create instability inside criminal organizations," Alejandro Poire, the spokesman for the National Security Council, told the Televisa network.
Bomb threats apparently linked to Cardenas' death forced the closure Monday of hundreds of schools and the evacuation of a hospital in Matamoros.
Still, the killing of Cardenas, coming a little more than two months after the capture of Edgar Villarreal Valdez, a drug lord known as "La Barbie," gave a palpable boost to President Felipe Calderon, whose popularity has sagged over the nearly 30,000 deaths in the drug war since he came to office in late 2006.
With the death of the Gulf Cartel leader, "the state is sending the message to these groups and to society that it will use all its firepower to go after them.... That's a valuable message," said Sigrid Arzt, a former top security adviser to Calderon.
Some U.S. experts caution that there will be more bloodshed when drug barons are neutralized. As cartels break apart, counter-drug agents will struggle to track the numerous underlings fighting to emerge as chief.
"When we did 'kingpin' in Colombia, it atomized the drug trade. It is sexy. It does hurt them. But is it a strategic blow? I don't think so," said a former senior U.S. intelligence official speaking on condition of anonymity in a recent interview in Washington because his new employer did not authorize him to speak publicly.
A scholar on narcotics trafficking groups, Bruce M. Bagley of the University of Miami, called the kingpin strategy "absolutely a good thing."
In Colombia in the 1990s, the arrest and killing of capos weakened the Medellin and Cali cartels and smuggling groups such as Valle del Norte and Milenio and left in their wake "more than 300 organizations, all of which are at a much lower level of capability and threat to the state," Bagley said.
Bagley acknowledged that killing kingpins could add to the number of targets.
"There's a kind of tradeoff," he said. "It's harder to get these guys, and many of them are lower level, so even if you get them you don't get the distribution network because they are so atomized."
"But look, they are far less of a threat. They are unable to bribe at the national level," he said. "They are unwilling to take on the military or police as we saw in Colombia or that we're seeing in Mexico. All things considered, there are problems with any strategy but atomizing is far better than allowing these hugely powerful groups."
Despite the massive bloodletting from the drug war, Calderon has chalked up some noticeable successes against capos since late 2009.
On Dec. 16, Mexican marines killed Arturo Beltran Leyva, kingpin of a breakaway cartel from the Sinaloa Federation, leading to a spate of beheadings and killings by his brother and another former lieutenant battling each other.
Nearly a month later, police captured a top Tijuana Cartel chief, Teodoro "El Teo" Garcia Simental, a ruthless capo known for employing a hit man called the "soup maker" who confessed to dissolving hundreds of bodies in acid for him.
The Aug. 30 capture of Villarreal, the Mexican-American who got his nickname of "La Barbie" because of his fair complexion, gave another boost to Calderon. Mexico is interrogating Villarreal and may eventually send him to stand trial in the United States, where he is wanted in three states.
Some of Mexico's most renowned drug lords run free, however, including the two top bosses of the mighty Sinaloa Federation, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman and Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, the nation's most wanted kingpins.
Mexican security forces have established specialized elite units tracking the two men, but are frequently several steps behind them, officials said.
Bagley said he doesn't doubt that Calderon wants to nab Guzman.
"For Calderon, it would be the crowning event of his government," Bagley said.

Massive drug tunnel with rail system discovered in pot bust at San Diego border
November 3, 2010 | 1:54 pm
A major drug tunnel has been discovered under the San Diego-Tijuana border, a roughly 1,800-foot passageway found in a warehouse in Otay Mesa where U.S. authorities seized more than 20 tons of marijuana, according to U.S. and Mexican officials.
In Mexico, army troops raided a warehouse in an industrial area that concealed the tunnel entrance and seized four more tons of dope.
The back-to-back raids occurred Tuesday night and Wednesday morning in a light industrial area with a long history of tunnel activity.
The passageway, equipped with lighting, ventilation and a rail system, is one of the few unearthed in recent years that appears to have been fully operational.
About 75 tunnels along the U.S-Mexico border have been unearthed in the last four years, most of them in various states of construction. The discovery comes two weeks after the Mexican military in Tijuana seized a record 134 tons of marijuana.
That dope was seized in a nearby area of eastern Tijuana, but it’s not clear if the two incidents are connected.
The Mexican military said no one had been arrested on the Mexican side. It’s not clear if arrests were made in San Diego. More details are expected to be provided at an afternoon news conference.

FBI DIRECTOR: GANGS 2006

"The violent MS-13 - or Mara Salvatrucha - street gang is following the migratory routes of illegal aliens across the country, FBI officials say, calling the Salvadoran gang the new American mafia. MS-13, has a significant presence in the Washington area, and other gangs are spreading into small towns and suburbs by following illegal aliens seeking work in places such as Providence, R.I., and the Carolinas, FBI task force director Robert Clifford said.

"The migrant moves and the gang follows," said Mr. Clifford, director of the agency's MS-13 National Gang Task Force."
