New Letter About the Chapitos, Allegedly From Mini Lic, Was Sent to News Outlets

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


Borderland Beat Contributors 

An email allegedly written by Damaso López Serrano, alias “El Mini Lic”, was sent to media outlets. The communication rebuts the recent letter from Sinaloa Cartel’s los Chapitos and accuses them of a number of homicides, most notably of the murder of Riodoce’s editor Javier Valdez.


The Email 

On May 14, 2023, Borderland Beat, along with a number of other media outlets, such as Zeta Tijuana and Riodoce, received an email from someone who claims to be Damaso López Serrano, a long time rival of los Chapitos. 



His communication is meant to be read as a direct response to the letter los Chapitos allegedly sent to Milenio news. Our coverage of this letter can be read in this previous story.


Aside from Borderland Beat, other recipients of the email include notable Mexican news outlets, such as Univision, Riodoce and Proceso; as well as notable US outlets, such as CNN and the New York Times. The sender also sent the email to multiple cartel-centric new sites and blogs.

It read as follows, after being translated to English:


Through this email, I send this letter to the media, where I narrate a series of events carried out by the sons of Joaquín Guzmán Loera (Los Chapitos), who in recent days have wanted to distance themselves from their illegal activities through letters and you the media. 


You all know perfectly well that you will receive threats when you publish this letter, but I trust that the federal government and the current president Andrés Manuel López Obrador will give you the necessary protection to carry out your work, which is to communicate to the people. Perhaps you will question the validity of this document, but soon I will be giving proof of the veracity of my words.


I remain at your service.


Damaso López Serrano.


Its important to note that El Mini Lic is the son of the famous cartel lawyer Damaso López Núñez, alias “El Licenciado”, who worked as a longtime partner with El Chapo during his heyday. 

Mini Lic eventually became part of a rival Sinaloa Cartel faction which challenged Chapo’s sons, los Chapitos, for control of the group. Mini Lic later turned himself in to the US in July 2017. He pled guilty in US federal court to charges of “organizing the transportation and distribution of thousands of kilograms of controlled substances, including methamphetamine, cocaine and heroin.” After serving 5 years in prison, Mini Lic was released in September 2022

Attached to the Mini Lic email were six images of Spanish text, shown below:



The purpose of this press release is to refute several points of the letter which was sent by los Chapitos to Milenio news.


First of all, I am going to give you the background that whenever they face a problem that is out of their control or they cannot manipulate, they use the sending of letters to disassociate themselves from their actions, using lies as their main resource, incriminating someone else, trying to look like innocent and victims of the events for which they are responsible.


The first time in 2016 when they ambushed the military at the north exit of Culiacán, remember that they sent a letter disavowing themselves of the massacre, when it was well known that Pancho Chimal and the güero ranas [your gunmen] among others, they were only the material authors of the act, ordered by you. The second time in February 2017 you sent a letter in which you blamed my father for having orchestrated an ambush against you and Mr. Ismael Zambada, something that everyone knew was false since there was never such an ambush. This is the game you have always played, throw the stone and hide your hand. I can give you hundreds of examples of this type and of which you deny your participation blaming others.


Between 2015-2016 you blamed everything on your uncle Aureliano, you said that the deaths that occurred in Culiacán and Mazatlán were ordered by him, that he was in charge of the drug dealing, that he was responsible for everything, when we all knew that you were the guilty ones and that you only put the guano to show your face, in order to commit crimes, abuse people and hide behind the face of your uncle.


The murder of Javier Valdez was ordered by you, since you threatened him and pressured him not to publish the interview he did with my father, first you asked Javier not to write the article, that was on a Saturday, Riodoce closed the edition on the previous Friday, on Saturday you communicate with him through a contact, They asked him not to write, he told them that he had already written it, then they told him not to publish, he told them I can’t do that, finally he told them that the newspaper was already at the printer’s, at midnight they asked him to sell them the whole newspaper, which was also denied, the next day, An armed group arrived at the newspaper’s offices where the newspaper is distributed, in the end they didn’t take it, what they did was follow each one of the distributors and they arrived at each one of the stores where the newspaper was left and they bought it, it was like a seizure, then they threatened Javier Valdez again and he took out the report again, I know this because Javier told us and also because Ismael Bojorquez, founder of Riodoce and Javier’s partner declared it, he and Javier’s wife know very well that the Chapitos were the ones to blame for Javier’s death, but they were threatened to say that I was responsible for his death.



They fabricated, corrupted and manipulated the entire judicial process to make me look guilty, but as his father says, sooner or later the truth will come out and it will be known who the real perpetrators were. Now in more recent days, how you planted fentanyl pills in various houses in Culiacan and placed an image on them that alluded to Mr. Ismael Zambada to blame him for being responsible for the production of fentanyl, being that you yourselves planted all that evidence that corresponded to pills, presses, logos with the image of an individual with a hat, notebooks with information and you provided the locations to the government so that it would secure them. Unfortunately for you I do know them perfectly, I know about their crimes, I know about their ambition, their traumas, I know the way they think and act, I know about their business, their people, the mistakes they have made and just as I know them, I know that you know me very well too and that is why you know that I do tell you their truths just as I did the last time I saw them in January 2017 in Portezuelo.

They say they are not the head of the CDS, I assure you that they are, I have the evidence where they assign half of the CDS to Iván Guzmán, Alfredo Guzmán, Joaquín Guzmán and Ovidio Guzmán.

Of course there are a number of small and large groups that operate under the orders of the cartel, but all of them are accountable to YOU and operate under your orders, the reason why I know this and I assure you is because many used to work for me and now, as you boast in corridos that you yourselves have composed, you say that they turned them over to me and now they work under your orders.

You yourselves have told everyone to use your name and your father’s name and that you can do whatever you want, but that at the end of the day you are the bosses and that when you need them, they have to come to do the job, whatever it may be.

You talk about the right of reply, tell me what right of reply you give to all the people you have threatened, executed and disappeared unjustly: men, women, guilty and innocent, if your motto has always been to grab them now and ask questions later!

Remember that I know you perfectly well and when you talk about social networks, no one better than you for that since you are addicted to the networks, you Iván and



Alfredo. Remember, how you could not get off your iPads when you attended meetings? They did not even pay attention because they were so immersed in social networks, commonly criticizing everyone and even more the Chino anthrax, you Ivan used the Instagram “the watchmaker” where you uploaded only pictures of watches, then you copied the way the CJNG was given publicity, with videos and sent to create pages to make famous the name “La Chapiza” because you did not like that Jalisco was mentioned more than Sinaloa.

That’s right, there are countless corridos and songs that musicians compose and they are right… There are many with false information, but most of the information they handle is true and they say that the musicians do it without authorization, don’t you remember Ivan? when they arrested your dad in 2014, that you ordered Barajas from Enigma Norteño to compose the corrido of “el señor Iván” and also those from Código FN, where they said that you were your dad’s successor, ask Barajas how I told him not to mention us in that corrido, but he told me that you were pressuring him because you wanted everyone to know that you were your father’s successor, when you and I know the truth very well, the reality was not that and I have the evidence to prove it, I will show it in due time.

Iván, what you like is to attract attention, you love that the media talk about you, as long as what is said is that you are the most powerful and that everything that is said about you is to exalt you, that’s why you named yourself “The king of cocaine”, but now that they say that they are hunting you, you don’t like that anymore.

Supposed experts in drug trafficking give their opinion about you, without having any idea of what they are talking about, although I do not consider myself an expert, I can assure you that I know you too well and I know exactly how you operate. The people have always seen and know it, but they do not speak out because they are afraid of you since you have spread your campaign of terror everywhere.

The incalculable benefits for the people and companies you talk about, are nothing compared to the benefits you get, because you get profit from everything. Do you remember the casino you put in Baja California Sur? how you charged in shares to let install a very famous casino in Culiacan? Only because the owners needed your protection, also what they get from the palenque in Culiacán, which is managed by Iván’s compadre, you already know who, likewise the drop by drop extortion modality that they imposed in Culiacán, charging the farmers, the collection of fees from the farmers, the collection of the fees from the farmers, and the extortion that you imposed in Culiacán.



boneless car junkyards, quotas for taquerias and beer outlets, control and quotas for the sale of pirated movies and music, places of prostitution, pirated cigars, gasoline theft, coin-operated machines, and an endless list of activities where they generate “profits”. Those who are harmed are the people who have an honest business or job and who have to put up with you abusing them because of your excessive and uncontrollable greed.

You talk about being prudent, the saying goes, “tell me what you show off and I will tell you what you lack”. You were very prudent Ivan to do what you did with Hugo Ruben Castellanos Jimenez, just because your girlfriend did not win the Miss World beauty pageant, you ordered 200 and 300 to go get him at the nightclub where the pageant was being held, they took him out by force and left him executed inside a van.

They say they have never worked with fentanyl, don’t they remember in 2016 what they did to the Monárrez brothers at the bus station in Culiacán? All because they were making large quantities of fentanyl and they did not want to work for you and at the end of the day they stole the formula and the cook, do you also not remember that in 2017 and 2018 Panú and José Ángel called a meeting in a restaurant in Culiacán to many young people to introduce the fentanyl pills same that they presented as M30, but they did not tell them that they were made of fentanyl, What they did tell them was that this was the business of the future, that it was much better than cocaine, crystal meth and heroin and they invited each one to look for clients and they gave each one 5000 pills and what about the labs they had in the mangroves of Conchal, also for the Navolato side and for the Sanalona area, did they forget that they sent 300 to collect the fee for each lab that was in Sinaloa? That they had to pay them with product since Sinaloa was your territory and therefore, whoever wanted to operate would have to pay a fee, have you already forgotten that you wanted to monopolize the fentanyl market? Maybe now Ivan has Alzheimer’s, because of course he did say it since those words are frequently used by him. “We have to get fentanyl into them, we are going to flood the streets of America with drug addicts.”

The story of the Bat, remember at El Bravo’s ranch in the ejido Las Piedritas, when the boy was tied up in the bathroom under the shower, and inside the bathroom there were only only Barbarino, Juancho taking notes and El Bravo, Alfredo and Iván torturing the guy. They pulled out his teeth with tweezers, cut off his ear and gave him electric shocks. outside tied to the trees were the Guacho’s gunmen and Ovidio was beating him. Ovidio was beating one of them with a Bat, and Iván was also the one who was

Who executed El Guacho?


The story of the tigers, does not mean that you are the owners of the tigers, it is well known that the Nini has that kind of animals and they were the ones used to commit those crimes by your orders since you are the bosses.


And why do you make fools of yourselves, you know that not everything that happens remains in the records, there are many missing people that do not appear in any record, but so that you can look for them and if you find them, here are some facts ordered by you:


The first week of May 2008 elements of the Federal Police were ambushed in downtown Culiacan, if you remember the gunmen were in 2 Cherokees; one of them blue armored.


In September 2016 they ambushed military personnel at the north exit of Culiacán to rescue Kevin, who days later appeared executed in Navolato also on your orders since the plaza was heated and they opted to get rid of him so that the government would not find him alive and so he could not open his mouth, if you remember that as a result of this they had to hand over Pancho Chimal with the Navy so that the government would decrease the intensity with which it was pursuing them.


There are records in 2017 of municipal, ministerial and state police officers executed on his orders.


Also in 2017 in a Carl’s junior in Culiacan they lifted the federal policeman who had the code name cobra, there are many more on the list that in due time I will make known.


That they were never involved in the war against the Zetas, that is a vile lie, of course they were at war against the Zetas, against the Beltrán, against the Carrillo, against the Mazátlecos, against the Russians, against me and many more. And of course they would like to dominate the whole country, that is why they sent a group to San Miguel Topilejo, in Mexico City, also groups to the State of Morelos, also to the State of Guerrero, to Quintana Roo, and that is why posters and banners with messages alluding to “la Chapiza and the minors” commonly appear in Durango, Chihuahua, Sonora, Baja California and Baja California Sur, etc. And I am not lying, the proof is there, they are the ones arrested in Topilejo, as they had their license plates with the mouse logo.

The danger is not for you, the danger is you and as they say that each one faces his own, you are the ones who involve everyone in wars that do not belong to you, there you have the Salazars in Sonora fighting other organizations contrary to you and in the same way you do it in other states. It is not noticeable the desire that you have for the authorities to act with the truth and in accordance with the law, since you have always to the law since you have always done the opposite, better to say that you want the authorities to act under your orders and for your benefit. Why are you surprised that the judges and magistrates do not treat you fairly, if you keep threatening judges, magistrates and prosecutors to make them do your bidding, just as you did in February 2021 when you attacked with bullets elements of the Attorney General’s Office in Culiacan.


I not only question their entire version, but I discredit it completely, since I know them and I know the truth, I know how they handle themselves, always acting and then denying and blaming others.


Who produces the fentanyl? You buy the pure fentanyl and you also produce it, since you regularly buy the raw material and manufacture it in Sinaloa to give it the fentanyl finish, producing it in the form of powder and tablets for its commercialization. Generally they get them in Asia. How do they get them to the U.S.? By means of buses, cargo trucks, small planes, boats, parcel delivery companies and other resources used to get the fentanyl to the U.S. border, and then bring it in through cars with hidden compartments, blind mules, cargo trucks, people who cross the checkpoints on foot, etc.


They are the target of a well justified persecution, so don’t cry, face your problems as they say it is time to grow up and learn to be men. To refresh your memory a little, I hope you have not forgotten the meeting we had in August 2014 at the little ranch in La Presita where the 5 of us, Ivan, Alfredo, Joaquin, Ovidio and I planned to turn ourselves in, Mr. Humberto Loya took us to the lawyers who were the connection with the US prosecutors, do you remember that everyone wanted to turn themselves in and what was the deal? I still have the papers from that meeting, where everyone signed so that the US prosecutors could prove that it was true that we wanted to do this and I also remember the “other” that was talked about in that meeting, more will be said later.


I hope this letter reaches the right people, I remain at your service.
