This is the second product of those interim assessments, which we will now make as needed, in addition to our annual year-end analyses and our weekly security memos. As we suggested in our first quarterly cartel update in April, most of the drug cartels in Mexico have gravitated toward two poles, one centered on the Sinaloa Federation and the other on Los Zetas. Since that assessment, there have not been any significant reversals overall; none of the identified cartels has faded from the scene or lost substantial amounts of territory. That said, the second quarter has been active in terms of inter-cartel and military-on-cartel clashes, particularly in three areas of Mexico: Nuevo Leon, Tamaulipas and Veracruz states; southern Coahuila, through Durango, Zacatecas, San Luis Potosi and Aguascalientes states; and the Pacific coast states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Michoacan and Guerrero. There are three basic dimensions of violence in Mexico: cartel vs. cartel, cartel vs. government and cartel vs.

  • South Pacific Cartel Author: Guillermo Vazquez Del Mercado Review: Phil Williams
    Organization Attributes Sheet: South Pacific Cartel Author: Guillermo Vazquez del Mercado Review: Phil Williams A. When the organization was formed + brief history The organization is the strongest splinter of what used to be called the Beltran Leyva Organization which was once part of The Federation, but seceded in 2008 after the arrest of Alfredo.1 It is headed by Hector Beltran Leyva (AKA: “El H”) who is the only Beltran Leyva brother who is still performing criminal activities (Arturo AKA: “El Barbas” was killed in December 2009 in operation headed by the Mexican Navy that attempted to arrest him and Alfredo AKA: “El Mochomo” was arrested in January 2008) It gained relevance after the arrests of Sergio Villareal Barragan (AKA: “El Grande”) and Edgar Valdez Villarreal (AKA: “La Barbie”), who were disputing the leadership of the organization after Arturo Beltran was killed. The arrests made it easier for Hector to rebuild the organization without his leadership being challenged and routes being disputed any longer.2 This organization is also known for the reckless violence their hit man groups (teenagers and under age boys) generate in those areas under its control or disputed by other organizations. B. Types of illegal activities engaged in, a. In general The organization’s recent creation makes it difficult to determine precisely what their illicit activities are, but it can be presumed that it is still engaging in the activities familiar to the Beltran Leyva Organization: smuggling cocaine, marijuana and heroin, as well as people trafficking, money laundering, extortion, kidnapping, contract hits and arms trafficking.3 b.

  • Mexico's Drug Trafficking Organizations
    Mexico’s Drug Trafficking Organizations: Source and Scope of the Rising Violence June S. Beittel Analyst in Latin American Affairs September 7, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41576 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Mexico’s Drug Trafficking Organizations: Source and Scope of the Rising Violence Summary The violence generated by Mexico’s drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) in recent years has been unprecedented. In 2006, Mexico’s newly elected President Felipe Calderón launched an aggressive campaign against the DTOs—an initiative that has defined his administration—that has been met with a violent response from the DTOs. Government enforcement efforts have successfully removed some of the key leaders in all of the seven major DTOs, either through arrests or deaths in operations to detain them. However, these efforts have led to succession struggles within the DTOs themselves that generated more violence. According to the Mexican government’s estimate, organized crime-related violence claimed more than 34,500 lives between January 2007 and December 2010. By conservative estimates, there have been an additional 8,000 homicides in 2011 increasing the number of deaths related to organized crime to over 40,000 since President Calderón came to office in late 2006. Although violence has been an inherent feature of the trade in illicit drugs, the character of the drug trafficking-related violence in Mexico has been increasingly brutal. In 2010, several politicians were murdered, including a leading gubernatorial candidate in Tamaulipas and 14 mayors. At least 10 journalists were killed last year and five more were murdered through July 2011.

  • Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations
    Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations June S. Beittel Analyst in Latin American Affairs July 22, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41576 Mexico: Organized Crime and Drug Trafficking Organizations Summary Reversing a fairly robust record of capturing and imprisoning leaders of Mexico’s drug trafficking organizations (DTOs), the escape of notorious cartel leader Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán on July 11, 2015, was a huge setback for the Mexican government already beleaguered by charges of corruption and low approval ratings. Mexico’s efforts to combat drug traffickers have touched all of the major organizations that once dominated the illicit drug trade: for example, the February 2014 capture of Guzmán who leads Sinaloa, Mexico’s largest drug franchise; top leaders of Los Zetas in 2013 and March 2015; the October 2014 arrests of Hector Beltrán Leyva of the Beltrán Leyva Organization and, later, of Vicente Carrillo Fuentes of the once-dominant Juárez cartel. The DTOs have been in constant flux in recent years. By some accounts, in December 2006 there were four dominant DTOs: the Tijuana/Arellano Felix organization (AFO), the Sinaloa cartel, the Juárez/Vicente Carillo Fuentes organization (CFO), and the Gulf cartel. Since then, the more stable large organizations have fractured into many more groups. In recent years, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) identified the following organizations as dominant: Sinaloa, Los Zetas, Tijuana/AFO, Juárez/CFO, Beltrán Leyva, Gulf, and La Familia Michoacana. In some sense, these might be viewed as the “traditional” DTOs. However, many analysts suggest that those 7 seem to have now fragmented to 9 or as many as 20 major organizations.

En ese sentido, sentenció: “no hay guerra, oficialmente ya no hay guerra”. Sin embargo, siguen los operativos contra líderes como los más recientes en Culiacán, Sinaloa contra liderazgos del Cártel de Sinaloa en octubre de 2019, en Ciudad de México contra la Unión Tepito o en Guanajuato contra el Cártel de Santa Rosa de Lima; ya sea desde la Fiscalía General de la República, o desde la Secretaría de Seguridad y Protección Ciudadana federal o coordinados por las Fuerzas Armadas o con auxilio de las autoridades estatales y locales.
