Cartel Jalisco settled in Tijuana; controls a third of the city
The guys from Sinaloa settled in Tijuana stemming from their intervention in the internal conflict of
the Arellano Felix Cartel (CAF), transpiring between 2008 and 2011. They provided economic relief as well as reinforcements. They sent people that operated for both sides.
In addition to Victor Hugo Mejia Lopez “El Griego” (The greek), currently active in homicides operating for the Sinaloa Cartel, the security council has detected Juan Carlos Parra Dominguez “El Java” and another man who is only referred to as “El Diablito” (Little Devil)
The Coordination Group had long denied the presence of CJNG and did not contest their presence effectively.
In September of 2015, when CJNG was designated by the Secretary of Security of Baja California, Daniel de la Rosa, as only being “distraction,” CJNG was already utilized by CAF to restructure and were already settled and in control of territory in Tijuana. This, with support from local traffickers that previously operated with the Arellano’s or Sinaloa.
According to information held by the Coordination Group, the group from Jalisco started by controlling the Sánchez Taboada delegacion (*a “Delegacion” is sort of like a county), today they have expanded their criminal influence to other delegations such as “La presa”, “Presa Rural” mainly in “El Florido”, “Cañadas”, “Terrazas and Villas del Campo” in terms of territory percentage, this means about a third of the municipal territory. In addition, they control a part of “Tecate” In that whole area they focus their narcotic distribution points.

The members of the Security Council know about at least two meetings held between local traffickers and people of CJNG leader Nemesio Oseguera” El Mencho “,(*El mencho is a slang used to call someone a dummy but not in an offensive way. It is ironic because Nemesio Oseguera is the farthest thing from a dummy.)
One of these meetings took place in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, and another at the Expo Hotel in Mariano Otero street located in “Jardines del Bosque, Guadalajara, Jalisco, all the way from Tijuana Jesus Yocupicio ” El Cabezon ” (The big head) and two other members who only were identified as ” William Levy ” and “La Mireya”.
These are third level criminals, above them are individuals who came to the city as entrepreneurs and investors, who change states constantly and move with their families in order to fool authorities.
Upon reaching the city they will fight for, they visit the places frequented by old families of the area, seeking information from local businesses and invest in them to launder their money.
“The drug product arrives from Jalisco and Sinaloa in hidden compartments of private vehicles as well as cargo transport in bigger vehicles. The drug transporting vehicles arrive somewhere in Mexicali, where from there the workers of “El Cabezon” Yocupicio, transport it to Tijuana and Tecate for its distribution. They have active contacts in the different corporations that are settled in Tijuana, to protect and filter information regarding operatives and arrests in their areas of influence”. This is what the report in hands of the authorities indicates.
About the money laundering the report indicates: “Deposits of $50,000 pesos are made in Bancoppel with different accounts from people that allow the use of their names, the destination is Sinaloa. Also “saldazo” accounts in the OXXOS (similar to 7-11’s). This is done on a daily basis. According to intelligence facts there is an account belonging to a company called “Solana Guadalajara, SA de CV”, which gets amounts over 150,000 pesos deposited to several times a week.

Mainly in Tijuana”, the authorities allege. Dionisio Santiago “Pelon”, Francisco Pulido “La Tigresa” and Julio Rojas “El Morgan” have been indicated as his criminal associates.
Authority passive and reactive
After the disgruntled reactions of the men in charge of civilian organized groups complaining about security for the state, when it was publicly known about the three dismembered bodies at the Benitez Boulevard, members of the coordination group reiterated that they keep working, they have sent flyers, they offered information about their results and stated they are seeking 61 subjects. These are men and women suspected of being related to homicides, they are people from all three Cartels: CAF, Sinaloa and CJNG.
The Federal Government had ordered on August 31 the implementation of special operations in 50 municipalities, including Tijuana and Mexicali, basically consisting with the implementation of three cross-departmental panels one for communications, one for investigations, and one more for intelligence to search and locate specific criminals in coordination. Other than these implementations, nothing is new.
In fact the panels were established on Thursday September 1st, when the severed bodies were dropped in the morning hours of September 3rd, and the Coordination group did not establish any special operative, they decided to follow their own agenda and scheduled an operative in different residential areas of the city to look for automobile thieves.
The question was asked to members of the Coordination group and the council for citizen security, if the federation was committed to go after the heads of the three trafficking cartels which are generating the violence and they all answered: “No”
Solely instructions have been given to state prosecutors to prosecute those allegedly responsible for the killings, not to aggressively pursue the cartel leaders.
