Also, I can't wait to see a detailed history of the Beltrán Leyvas in a book someday not too far in the future. Those guys somehow managed to build up the most extensive networks of dirty officials (including some working for Interpol and the American embassy) without anyone realizing they were much more than Chapo Guzmán's junior partners until this year. How did that happen?

Playing for the Other Team
Another high-ranking police officer, this one working as the deputy director of public security in Zihuatanejo, has been discovered to be in the employ of the Beltrán Leyva gang. The link was discovered by the army, which makes me wonder if this was not a conscious part of their response to the decapitation of seven soldiers in Guerrero this weekend.
