Re: From MX1 on the Mormon assassination
More on Mormons from MX1:
New information on the matter:
Our intel is saying that it is indeed La Linea.
The region was controlled for 6 years by Juarez. After that, Chapo
came in. Many people, including Mormons, got rich over those VCF
years. Now they are literally fighting for control of the area.
VCF made Le Baron responsible for the OVERALL situation of letting
Chapo operate in the area. So the assasination is linked to the
bigger picture, not just the 25 of Chapos guys that were detained.

Subject: From MX1 on the Mormon assassination
Answers from MX1 on Stephen's question posed today… Note, I have asked
him to follow up on that Russian missile note at the bottom.

Lots of thoughts, actually.
In principle, some official information from the State
Investigations Agency is linking the assassination to phone calls
that resulted in the detention of 25 of Chapos guys nearby a few
weeks ago. I wrote about this incident because it was extremely
noteworthy.
However, if it is a revenge signal to the Mormon community for that
action in particular, it would be Sinaloa cartel. Keep in mind
that La Linea is really a Chihuahua extension of the Sinaloa cartel
in most of the region. However, because some of its members
reverted to VCF, la linea gets too much credit more often than not.
What is significant about this is that I think there may be a
little battle between some Army officials and the Governor. The
Govenor has offered to provide security and even training for a
Mormon police force. At the same time, a military official told me
that that would not be a positive thing from their perspective, as
they insist on a security monopoly there. So, it seems that the
feds and the state are fighting over who has control of the region.
in the meantime, someone wants the Mormons to shut up. Given that
both Sinaloa and VCF operate there, it could be any one of them,
particularly considering that the Mormons, according to the
Rancher's association, have been reluctant to strike any deals or
pay any money whatsoever.
This is DEFINITELY something to watch in order to understand the
big picture that is Chihuahua.
PS- Are you guys interested in the Russian Missile we found in
Matamoros?
