No happy ending as Mexican Police launch Texas man from 14 floor
2019-04-24
[Breitbart] MONTERREY, Nuevo Leon ‐ A police intelligence team was arrested in connection with the death of a Texas man and an alleged extortion scheme. The homicide victim was an accused drug dealer in custody. According to investigating authorities, decorated officers potentially threw the man off a 14-story building.

The alleged murder took place over the weekend when decorated officers from Fuerza Civil reportedly used a fake arrest warrant to extort 27-year-old Fortunato Esquivel Garcia. The move failed and ended with the cops throwing the victim from the 14th floor of the Semillero building in the Monterrey metropolitan area, say authorities. The victim died from injuries sustained from falling more than 147 feet.
Un-Fortunato
The Nuevo Leon government announced the arrests of five police officers and the ongoing search for a sixth from an intelligence unit within Fuerza Civil, the police agency controlled by Public Safety Secretary Aldo Fasci Zuazua. Soon after, Aldo Fasci made a series of public statements claiming the officers were not with the intelligence unit, but an obsolete department being phased out.

#5  So they're loving the lethal weapon movies down there, so what ? No harm, no foul.

Possible new method of execution? Probably cheaper than lethal injection.

#3  Esquivel lived for a time in La Joya, Texas, where he went to school and was arrested by the LJISD police in 2010 on drug charges and escaping from law enforcement.

Perhaps not a native Texan? Not that it matters to the crime he suffered.

#2  Drug dealer versus corrupt Mexican cops? If Mr. Garcia (or Esquivel Garcia, if he is following the Mexican styling) really is a drug dealer, I find it hard to work up excitement over either party. Though it’s useful to know things haven’t much changed since badanov was following events south of the border.

It must be noted that it’s difficult to extort anything from a dead man beyond what was in his pockets, a failure of imagination on the part of decorated intelligence officers.
