Two former police officers from Ciudad Madera, Chihuahua, were arrested for weapons and drug violations on Sunday in Namiquipa, according to the State Attorney General’s office.
The two former police officers were stopped by elements of the state prosecutor’s office after they were observed traveling in a Dodge van, according to Proceso. A search produced a firearm, ammunition, approximately 26.5 pounds of marijuana, and 10 individual doses of cocaine. Investigators also found a police uniform shirt with the Mexican Federal Police insignia, military-type trousers, knee pads, and tactical boots.
During interrogation, the two former cops reportedly admitted to being members of La Linea, the armed wing of the Nuevo Cartel de Juarez or Juarez Cartel. They also admitted to receiving orders from Roberto González Montes, aka “El Mudo” or “EL 32,” who is a well-known violent boss. Local media reports indicate that González Montes is also a former Chihuahua state police officer previously arrested in December 2016 for weapons and drug violations–but was released by a federal judge. Local media reported at the time of his December 2016 arrest, González Montes bribed the arresting officers with $2 million pesos ($100,000 USD), which officers reportedly refused.
González Montes’ La Linea cell was believed involved in an armed confrontation with a faction of the Sinaloa Cartel that occurred in Madera and left 15 gunmen dead. This deadly incident occurred on June 6, 2017, as reported by the state attorney general’s office. The cell is also believed responsible for an attack at a police facility in Las Varas that left two state officers dead in June of 2017.
Breitbart Texas previously reported that the former police chief of Namiquipa was arrested along with two of his officers after being accused of providing protection for a well-known cartel leader, Arturo Quintana Quintana “El 80,” within the Juarez Cartel.
Namiquipa is approximately 125 miles west of the state capital of Chihuahua and is in the path of what is considered a key drug smuggling route into the United States.

old, but if you talk to any California law enforcement officer, they will tell

“Mexican authorities have arrested the former mayor of a
rural community in the border state of Coahuila in connection with the
kidnapping, murder and incineration of hundreds of victims through a network of
ovens at the hands of the Los Zetas cartel. The arrest comes after Breitbart
Texas exposed not only the horrors of the mass extermination, but also the
cover-up and complicity of the Mexican government.”

Funding for the Wall? Let ‘El Chapo’ Pay
Amid the wrangling over who – if anyone — will pay for America’s southern border wall, now comes Mexican drug lord El Chapo. Facing criminal trial in federal court later this year, the captured narcotics kingpin could be ordered to forfeit $14 billion from his drug cartel.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, wants the ill-gotten gains earmarked for enhanced border security, including a border wall. Cruz’s El Chapo Act states:
“Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any illegally obtained profits resulting from any criminal drug trafficking enterprise led by Joaquin Archivaldo “El Chapo” Guzman Loera, which are criminally forfeited to the United States government as a result of the conviction of Mr. Guzman Loera in federal district court, shall be reserved for security measures along the border between the United States and Mexico, including the completion of a wall.”
A companion measure – H.R. 2186 – has been introduced in the House.
Since El Chapo’s notorious cartel operated out of Mexico, the appropriating bills are, well, appropriate. And because the bulk of illegal narcotics in this country arrive via Mexico, one could argue that future forfeitures should be handled the same way.
To be clear, drug-asset seizures cannot be the sole source of funding for immigration enforcement endeavors. But the El Chapo Act would be a welcome down payment on a wall that Congress continues to slow-walk and shortchange. It’s a no-brainer, even on Capitol Hill.
