Tijuana: Two sets of Human Remains and Narco Messages

“HEARST” for Borderland Beat

On the morning of Thursday, May 26 2021, a narco message written on white cloth with black text was found on Juan Bosco Street in the San Martin neighborhood of Tijuana. Accompanying the message were bags of human remains. Municipal Police and members of SEDENA arrived at the site. They cordoned off the scene and requested the presence of personnel from the State Investigation Agency. 

The message read as follows: 

That’s how all those who follow La Cura will be left. 

To those lunatics, let’s go.

For all to read: Marcos, Jorge, Bits, Niñote

Align yourselves or blood will flow.

You have 24 hours to communicate. If you don’t, you are going to fuck your mother.

Sincerely, 

The owners of the plaza

Pure people from Cabo 100 and Cabo 27.

Sánchez [Taboada] has new owners.

And with facts it has been proven that you and all your people are worthless, you dirty, filthy Lobo. 

Sincerely, 

El De la D, El 23*, El Lic

*Note: ZETA reports this as “El 23”. Facebook group Tijuana al Momento reports this as “El 21”. 

The most recent well-known event possibly tied to El Lic del Diablo was the kidnapping of four Sinaloa cartel affiliated characters on March 8 2021. Among the four was Farrah Fresnedo García, former sister-in-law of Rene Arzate García alias “La Rana”. A March 27 2021 narcomanta later accused both El Lic del Diablo and Güero Pecas of being the behind the May 8 2021 kidnapping.
