Newest scenario offered: Chapo fell off cliff during escape, face injuries and possible broken leg

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Lucio R.  Borderland Beat

Near Cosalá, Sinaloa
When reading a report and you spot “facts” that are not so factual one naturally is suspect of the remainder of the story, especially when the article is threaded with additional “facts” that a good student of the Mexican drug war, cartels, and capos will head shake at the improbability of a report. 


For starters, CNN is reporting that 3 days before a confrontation with Mexican Marina (Navy) Chapo was seen riding motorcycles with a son, and with another riding in a Ferrari.  The CNN report also alluded to 3 weeks earlier “Chapo’s son” tweeted a photo with his son while they were dining al fresco at an eatery.  CNN did not say the location of the dining setting, only that the photo depicts “El Chapo brazenly eating at a restaurant.”  When the photo went viral is named Peru as the location.

 CNN did not name the son, but the young man in the photo did not appear to be any son narco news followers could identify.  Issues such as that, and the use artistic liberty, can be fed to most people north of the border, because most people north of the border use one source to educate themselves on Mexico drug war issues and news  and that is U.S. mainstream media. 


Chapo is many things but stupid is not even on the mile long list. And he is an astute student in learning lessons from mistakes.  He was captured in 2014 after he became a little complacent with his security, making more frequent trips down off the mountain and those damn cell phones and radios the U.S. Drug Administration are so good at  intercepting conversations from.   In the case of Mazatlán, his son and bodyguard were two of the cell interceptions that aided the capture. 

Riding around in Ferarri’s eating in public view,  when the nations forces, backed by U.S elements, are in hot pursuit, pulling out all stops, at all cost, is how a stupid man would conduct himself, fresh after a made for Hollywood underground prison escape.  


All the aforementioned is a bit of a qualifier leading into the report of CNN.  Which may have some truth to it.

Tamazula: Bullet impact holes, dot the roof, sustained from Marina helicopter fire, 
The first reported violence attributed to Chapo’s capture attempts by the Marina using DEA agency intelligence.  The scene was in Tamazula de Victoria is a small town and seat of the municipality of Tamazula in Durango, near the Sierra Madre Occidental mountains. The town is located about 1.5 hours east of Culiacán, Sinaloa.  Reports initially came from the terrified citizens of Tamazula who fled their homes, into the forest, when Marina forces in helicopters and on foot were firing upon their homes in search of Chapo.  The search which authorities and The Marina denied initially.  It was the U.S. media who was reporting information given to them, most likely from sources within U.S. federal agencies.


Next place of the search,  was near the Pueblo Magico town of Cosalá, Sinaloa.  Close to Dep. Lucero Sanchez, the lady of congress who visited Chapo in prison, allegedly using false identification, and  who the PGR agency has declared as the mother of Chapo’s baby son.


What is known is there at the ranch was El Chapo, protected by several layers of security and intelligence. There was a shootout that became so intense it drove back federal forces who were on foot to reach the clandestine ranch.


What was reported by U.S. and followed with a confirmation by Mexico days later,  is that El Chapo sustained injuries to the face and leg, while escaping the clash.  Mexico stressed twice in their presser that El Chapo was not injured by federal forces.  This information was breaking news from NBC Universal who cited sources within the DEA.


Neither U.S. or Mexico offered details addressing how the injuries were confirmed, or in what circumstance were they sustained.  There were reports of an ATV accident while escaping.  Other reports said medical personnel had forwarded information to authorities, another saying medicine, clothing and cell phones were left at the ranch.  And yet another saying Chapo’s so called “escape pilot” is singing an opera to authorities, the pilot who we know nothing about, no name, not even the date of his capture or how he was captured.

     Ricardo Ochoa Beltrán, mayor of Tamazula, Durango, is the brother in law of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán. 

The mayor is married to Érika Guadalupe Coronel Aispuro, sister of Emma Coronel Aispuro, reported wife of the leader of the  Cártel de Sinaloa. –he is legally married to only his first wife by his own admission when giving personal information at time of 2014 arrest


That brings us up to date, and to the breaking Chapo news of the day.


CNN is reporting additional details in the “near capture” of Chapo in Cosalá.  

“A Mexican official, with knowledge of the manhunt said, “Mexican Special Forces had spotted ‘the ruthless’ drug dealer near the town of Cosalá”.


They report; authorities were reluctant to close in on Chapo, because, according to the source, there was a child with him.  Decision makers decided against a firefight because of the child.  In the world of Mexican decision makers, it is perfectly within in reason, while searching for Chapo, to fire into the homes of innocent people, from helicopters, without regard to the small children inside, but a child with Chapo, can cause federal forces to  slam on the brakes in a massive operation. 

The report continued, 

“later, when El Chapo was spotted without the child, Mexican Marines gave chase. That’s when El Chapo either fell or jumped off a small cliff, injuring his face, and possibly breaking his leg. At that point, the official says Guzman’s bodyguards rushed to the bottom of the cliff, carried him out and got away through the dense forest.


“They have him pinned in if you will, right in his area, his backyard,” said Carl Pike, Former DEA Special Agent.


One source says Mexican Marines weren’t able to catch El Chapo at that moment because they were on foot as well.


It continues:


“CNN has also learned, three-days before that chase, the drug kingpin known for killing thousands of people was spotted in a nearby town on a motorcycle and in a Ferrari, with his sons. Weeks earlier, one son allegedly tweeted a photo, supposedly showing El Chapo brazenly eating at a restaurant. 

Now, however, he may no longer be as bold because of his injuries falling from that cliff.”


“This involves bringing in people who weren’t in the normal ring. So now they got to find a medical person or a nurse or someone like that- that can actually tend to his injuries. And it slows him down, puts him in one particular spot that he wasn’t planning on being in before,” said Pike.


“El Chapo is known as a master of high-stakes escapes. He broke out of a high-security Mexican prison in July through this elaborate tunnel. Previously he eluded police, through a trap-door hidden under his bathtub.”


“Authorities could be tracking him through his wife, Emma Coronel, a former beauty queen, believed to be seen in some photos posted online.”  (-props for this time,  getting photos that are of Emma and not any ol Sinaloa beauty queen,  as in the past-)


“I would imagine that U-S authorities, intelligence services, and Mexican authorities are tracking her very, very closely. And that they have good ways of doing that. So I would have thought that it’s in most likelihood that they are separate for the time being,” said Duncan Wood, The Woodrow Wilson Center. (–especially with Lucero and the new kid around-)
