The detention of " El Lico " provokes highway blockades in Tierra Caliente

Posted: 30 Jan 2015 03:33 AM PST


Translated for Borderland Beat from a Michoacan 3.0 article by Otis B Fly-Wheel

Morelia Michoacan



This Thursday morning , elements of the Mexican Army detained Frederico Villegas Garcia alias " El Lico " and another two men for crimes that have not been revealed in an official manner.

These actions provoked anger among the residents of Atunez , who maintain blockades of the Cuatro Camino - Apatzingan highway to demand the release of the three captives.

During the operation the three men were arrested around 1 am when they were in their respective homes , prompting dozens of neighbours to come out and defend them.





As part of the actions of town people after the arrest , they blockaded both entrances to Atunez with vehicles , but the Army managed to avoid them.

So far the blockade continues , the three arrested men belonged to the false autodefensas of the region , so that cannot be ruled out as a reason for their arrest. ( Otis: , El Lico , is also meant to be the financial co-ordinator for Los Viagra ).

Because of these actions , all buses moving in and out of the Tierra Caliente have been suspended until further notice.

Since last Tuesday , elements of the Mexican Army and Marina initiated a series of operations in the Tierra Caliente , to dismantle the Los Viagra criminal organisation and the Knights Templar.

These actions are part of the Group for Coordination , Michoacan, the commission that replaces the now defunct , Commission for Security and Integral Development in Michoacan, who's primary goal is to capture Servando Gomez " La Tuta ".

Trickery in the normalista assassin's perp walk-Handcuffed? Nope, water-bottled!

Even by Mexican standard of ethics, truth and transparency, this is one of those stand out gems.

The guy who appears to be handcuffed above is 'El Cepillo', the suspect arrested 2 weeks ago. This is the assassin of the missing students, and the guy who Mexico's attorney general placed his faith in to go along with the script, to provide the  truthful testimony that closed the case of the normalistas of Iguala.

In the first image, it is not in your face evident, that something is awry, but after you view the third image you will see what is up.

In the second image, the "most dangerous of assassins"  loses his concentration, forgetting he is supposed to be handcuffed, his right hand seems to have been unconstrained.

                                                     Image 2: loses concentration

In the third image it is self-explanatory, what is going on, there are no handcuffs for this "madman killer of students".  He is gripping a water bottle. (image on next page)

In my post of January 25th, I wrote the following;

"Officials said Friday that they had detained a "leader of the Guerreros Unidos"criminal group that prosecutors believe killed 43 college students, then burned their bodies in a case that began about four months ago.

There has been an arrest of Guerreros Unidos "leader", Felipe Rodríguez Salgado, alias 'El Cepillo', who  is being detained and "interrogated."

Government officials are hoping the suspect may add details to the theory that the authorities have outlined."


In the post, I hypothesized, that the new arrest was a necessary tactic by the federal government.  This is due to the official government version of the fate of the 43 missing students, being  widely panned.  The rejection is not exclusively by the outspoken parents of the normalistas (students), but by the majority of the citizens of Mexico.  Mexican's do not trust the administration of Enrique Peña Nieto.  In a recent poll across the nation, only 15% trust the administration.

Also noted in the post, (read the post by linking here) how peculiar it was, that on Tuesday it was announced that the government exhausted all sources of investigation in the case, yet three days later we have another bad guy, a leader no less, that will spill his guts, and provide additional information.

Mexico's AG, Jesús Murillo Karam said a week later, that  the investigation was now exhausted, and it "gives us legal certainty that the student teachers were killed in the circumstances that have been described." 

You know the ones the bad guys and corrupt police confessed to. That the students were killed, incinerated at the Cocula landfill, and ashes dumped in the river.

Image 3: gripping a water bottle, is he
grimacing in pain, from the tight grip of the "cuffs"?

Mexico has its behind to the wall, United Nations has begun an investigation, President Obama has spoken openly to President Pena about the Iguala case, scientists and experts  have  determined the official account is "impossible", the army is under suspicion of aiding the Iguala attacks.  As reported earlier,  it is without doubt they were blocking any inbound traffic during the second attack. (There were two attacks on the night of September 26th).  What is unclear is if they also assisted in disposing the bodies.  

I questioned if  the recent arrest  was  a ploy, so that the government would say they relied on the testimony of Rodriquez' to close the case.   Then two days later, Murillo Karam announced just that and declaring the investigation over saying;
"The conclusion was made based on the testimony of a key suspect arrested two weeks ago, Felipe Rodriguez Salgado, who said he was called to dispose of the students. There are also 39 confessions. The conclusion is that the amount of heat from the fire and the location could have kept the blaze going for hours, (not what scientist and experts say, plus is was raining all day) and that the remains were then "crushed" and dumped in the river."
The #YaMeCanse attorney General added;
"The conclusions were based on; 386 declarations, 487 forensic tests, 16 raids and two reconstructions."
He also wants us to know about possible army involvement "there is no evidence; the army had involvement in this case".  Could that possibly be attributed to the fact there is not an investigation into the army involvement?   Then again, they surely already know the truth behind the allegation.


Let us revisit, the treatment of another man while he is being arrested.The vicious surgeon for the poor, humanitarian, social activist, 10 year volunteer for the American Red Cross, President of the largest migrant association in the United States, autodefensa leader, one of the founders of "Yo Soy Autodefensa" movement.

He is hooded, cuffed, head shaven, denied attorney for 14 hours,and continues to be humiliated by EPN's malevolent boy, Alfredo Castillo, who this week says Dr Mireles is mentally ill, and wanted not only to take control of Mexico, but planned to conquer all of Latin America.
