Each Rurales Member Issued 45 Bullets to Take on Tuta's Men

The legality of Rurales Under Question

The consensus in the Michoacán State Legislature is that the new Fuerza Rural is illegal, since state enabling legislation has not yet been passed:

“Michoacán state law does not allow for a State Rural Police Force, so what these autodefensas have been converted into is illegal, unless they’re created under the laws governing the federal defense forces, say state legislative leaders.

The Chairmen of both the State Legislature’s Constitution Committee and the Legislature’s Justice Committee, Sebastián Naranjo Blanco and Selene Vásquez Altorre, respectively, reached this conclusion about the illegality of the Fuerzas Rurales that began operating Monday.” 

PGR Says Mireles is not being investigated for murder

Mariana Benítez Tiburcio, of international affairs of the Attorney General’s Office reported that, as of yet, the PGR Agency [federal] has not been notified of an investigation against Dr. José Manuel Mireles. 

Commissioner Castillo has insinuated there was an investigation and possible link with the deaths of five people. He further perpetuated, there was a photograph taken with Dr Mireles holding “the head” of one of the corpses, as a trophy, Borderland Beat was given the fotos and the right to publish them, which was done along with some facts missing from Castillo’s account.

After participating in the inauguration of the National Forum Code of Criminal Procedure at the National Institute of Criminal Sciences (INACIPE), Benítez stated that the new National Code of Criminal Procedures is not fixed and can be improved for better functioning once effective sentencing reforms take place in June 2016.
