Hans Brinker - remember him ?


The story of Hans Brinker, the little Dutch boy who put his finger in the dike and stopped the sea from destroying his village can be interpreted in distinctly opposite ways.  From an optimist's opinion, the metaphor is a lesson in quick and decisive action to avert danger and tragedy.  From the opposite spectrum, the metaphor could also mean a "...treating of the symptoms, but not the disease.  Doing what one thinks is right without having a clear course of action after the hole is plugged." If viewed this way, the plugging of the hole by Hans could be viewed as merely a stopgap measure. 


Let's take a look at the recent arrests of importance in our area where operatives of both the CAF and Sinaloa cartels have been arrested and at this juncture consider if these arrests have had a huge impact as far as immobilizing the wave of violence which has been sweeping Baja California.





May 07, 2015:

 - Tijuana: Almost a month after the execution of "El Mono" Alberto Avila Alvarado aka "El Chacal" arrested in Playas de Tijuana on dope and weapons charges.  El Chacal was actually in custody and escaped from the PEP the same day (04/09) El Mono was executed. An important figurehead of the CAF, El Chacal who was the the brother-in-law of El Mono was second in command in the Zona Norte and the Zona Centro de Tijuana for narcotics distribution.

 - Tijuana:  In the Zona Norte early Friday morning PEPo's and Sedena arrest the brothers of El Mono, Roberto Carlos Toscano Rodriguez and Marcos Rafael Toscano Rodriguez aka "Los Cuates" along with their accomplice Daniel Eduardo Tapia Lopez.  The men were on foot carrying two AR-15's with 30 chargers, a 5.45X39 rifle, a 9mm (concealed in suitcases), two bulletproof vests, more cartridges and dope.  It was believed that the Toscano-Rodriguez brothers would be taking over El Mono's Zona Norte and Zona Centro operations.  It was also a clear indication that Mexican Intelligence knew exactly where to find them.  At this present moment, there have been no reports on who controls the narcotic trafficking, the supplies to the "little shops" or weapon smuggling in these areas.

 - Tijuana:  Another blow to the CAF on Saturday in daylight and another shocker, just steps away from the Palacio Municipal, Benjamin Gutierrez Quiroz aka "El Quecho" - the brother of El Melvin shot and killed as he was exiting his truck carrying some packages to a building.  El Melvin, arrested two years ago, controlled the drug operations and Barrio Logan gang members for the CAF. Although Zeta states that recent intelligence reports indicate that El Quecho was not actively involved in the drug trade, that he worked at a car shop in colonia Libertad, some people were left wondering - especially after his arrest in March of 2013 where he was described as an operator and administrator of drug sales in the Zona Centro and Otay areas if that report was entirely accurate.  He had no control or at least input into the Barrio Logan gangs for the CAF?  He was shot by two men who drove off, the Army arrived on the scene reports say very quickly - but no arrests were made.  Also noted  that it was only Zeta, AFN, Manuel Cordero of El Sol de Tijuana, and Reporteros  who actually printed his name.  The other sources I use (El Mexicano and Frontera) did not mention his name but referred to him only as "a man".  There has been some speculation in my neighborhood that not identifying him would temper the violent reactions to his execution.  There has also been speculation in my neighborhood that old guard CAF operatives are being stalked and eliminated, but by who exactly is unclear.

05/29:

 - Tijuana:  Another CAF operator down - this is Jesus Omar Avila Alvarado aka "El Chacalito" arrested in Playas with dope, weapon and cartridges. Although years ago many US sources had described the CAF in Tijuana as debilitated and practically non existent and completely disorganized (which at least the Mexican people I know did not believe at all), the only way we will find out for sure is if  new players within their ranks step up quickly and firmly take control of these vacated slots.

 - Tijuana:  In colonia Rinconada de Otay Alfredo Enrique Zermen, an operator for El Aquiles arrested with 73 kilos of mota.  Alfredo had been arrested before in 2012 with 214 kilos of mota along with others including an ex Municipal Police officer who was "protecting" the group. One neighbor noted that 73 kilos wasn't a huge amount, authorities knew Zermen (who had no aka) and his route - so was this a sacrifice or will pressure be put on Zermen to spill the beans on other operations and El Aquiles? Keeping that in mind, also keep in mind the adaptability of the narco groups.

 - Tijuana: PEPo's arrest Jesus Miguel Gutierrez aka "El Becerro" believed to be the successor to "El Guero Chompas" of the Sinaloa Cartel in colonia Guaycura. Again, is this more thinning of the old guard and is the Sinaloa Cartel unified enough to have a replacement lined up?  If not, are we seeing many vacuum spaces in both the Sinaloa and CAF cartels in Tijuana which could potentially increase the violence as new contenders vie for these positions?

A footnote to these top dog arrests and executions mentioned by a friend of mine from Rosarito was that most of these high level long time operatives knew every crooked Judge, cop, attorney, politico and business person in Baja California in one way or the other.  Now, the operatives are dead - and dead men don't talk.  Interesting.



~~~~~~~


The Executions:  At the end of May, for just one month alone there were 71 executions. The total homicides since the beginning of the year for a five month period is 226 according to Subprocuraduria Estatal Contra la Delincuencia Organizada, Miguel Angel Guerrero Castro.  Officially he has referred to the CAF as the "Cartel de Tijuana."  The Zona Norte according to the Subprocuraduria is under the control of "El Alejo" and San Antonio de los Buenos is under the control of "El Chapito" and "Los Cuates" who operate for the Sinaloa Cartel.


Updates:


06/03:


 - Tijuana: around 6:45pm in Canada Verde of Sanchez Taboada one man injured from gunfire, his condition is unknown.  When the police arrived at the scene, the victim had already been transported to the Hospital - but they called in the Paramedics for another man who was on the street in the same location, so it is possible there were two injuries here.  Early report, more details if they come in:

 - Tijuana: AFN is constantly updating this story so check the link. While still daylight in the Zona Norte  with people on the street, three men attacked by gunfire outside of the Guadiana Hotel between 1st and Constitucion; one is dead the other two are wounded, their conditions have not been updated.  This is believed to have happened after a fight involving a machete; two men return and open fire on the three men.

One of the injured is Manuel Figura a close associate of the PRI leader Alejandro Arredondo.  The other injured man is an alleged narcomenudista known as  "El Heroe"  and so far no id on the man who was killed.

Threats to The Authorities:


 - Tijuana: In the Zona Rio two boxes left with the cut out tongues and hooves of a pig with the narco message left to the soon to be new Commander of the Ministerial Police Juan Manuel Ojeda Sotomayor.  One box had his name on it, the other had the message which read: "Por rata y hocicon" - or, "For the rat who talks too much (or has a big mouth)." the message was not signed. One of the responders asked a question about a shooting on Blvd. 2000 in Rosarito Beach - all I could find was at K35 on Blvd 2000 on 05/23 in the early morning the body of a man located, shot five times.

The two officers (Torres and Alaves)  are assigned to Cerro Colorado.
