Fodder for the Coen Brothers' Mexican Flick

Among the Juárez organized crime figures killed recently José Daniel González, who was shot to death in May. Turns out both he and his alleged assassin were informants for the US Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. Read more about the tale here. Then maybe grab a pen and paper, start writing, and beat Joel and Ethan to punch with an Oscar-winning script. And then cut Gancho a small check for finding your inspiration.
