THE BORDER REPORT
Take a look at this video interview of José Vázquez Villagrana, El Jabáli, for a moment.
Captured last month in Mexico City, Mexico’s Ministry of Public Safety presented the clean-cut 40-year-old Jábali, a drug lord from Santa Ana, Sonora, sporting a turtleneck sweater. The interview bothers me for many reasons, not the least of which are his wild admittances about what exactly he did for a living and for whom. Jábali claims to work for the Sinaloa Federation, but some people I had an opportunity to speak with over the past few days say he actually worked for the Juárez Cartel, not Sinaloa.
Yet, in his interview, not only does Jábali portend to work for Sinaloa, he gives an astonishing amount of detail about what he did, how much he charged, and, most interestingly, that his bosses sought to protect northern Mexico.
Looking down at the ground and rarely meeting the camera’s eye, Vázquez said he was the Sinaloa Cartel’s lead man in northern Sonora. Every month, he announced, two tons of cocaine came up from Central America and were delivered into the U.S. through his ranch, La Cebolla.
The details he alleges about the cartel’s figurehead principle, Joaquín El Chapo Guzmán, are interesting.
“Have you spoken with El Chapo?” an officer off camera asks.
“Yes, I spoke to him by telephone one day.”
“And what does he say?” Even the question is put to him oddly. “Que te dice?” as if Guzmán is some estranged and well-regarded uncle living far away whom nobody has heard from and everybody wants news of.
“He says that everything is at peace, that everyone must behave, that in this area, nobody is permitted to rob or to kidnap or to assault others. That anyone who does these types of things needs to be removed.” Really? How … ingenuous.
Guzmán wants the area to remain tranquil and under control, Vázquez said.
Last year, the Mexican government said Vázquez worked for Arturo Beltrán Leyva. Last spring, when Mexican federal police arrested Cynthia Anahí Beltrán Cabrera with a M2 Browning .50-cal machine gun mounted on the back of a Ford pickup truck, she was identified as being in the service of Vázquez, and he, in turn, of the Beltrán Leyva family.
The Mexican Federal Attorney General’s Office claims that Vázquez worked for both, the Sinaloa Cartel and Beltrán Leyva’s organization until the Beltráns joined with the Zetas, at which point he broke away because they were too violent.
Yet people invested in northern Sonora’s drug trafficking families say Vázquez never worked for either the Beltráns or Sinaloa. He worked for Juárez, they say. A minor corroboration; Jábali had feuded with Los Numeros for a long time and Los Numeros were the Beltrán’s brazo armado in Sonora. A minor refute: Jábali had associated himself with Geovanni Páez, the Caborca cowboy who worked for Sinaloa. Sort of a micro-merger between Juárez and Sinaloa that didn’t seem affected by the rivalry in Cd. Juárez.
This leads me to a few questions on this fine, cold Monday morning:
1. Who did Vázquez really work for? If, in fact, he worked for Juárez, why claim Sinaloa?
2. Why was he in Mexico City and only then arrested? Why not take him in Santa Ana when they’ve known for at least a year that he lived and worked here?
3. From the questions posed to Jábali, I ascertain that the federal interviewers knew what answers he would give. Was he told what to say?
4. The interview sure makes Chapo look good. It paints a picture of a security benefactor who will protect the Mexican people from the deranged Zetas. I wonder a little if that wasn’t the point of the video; a manufactured public relations image of Chapo.
Anyway.
am not sure if he associated with giovanni paez…november last year he associated with the saboris and the salazar family….he was in mexico city because he recently got married there and was visiting his wife if they woulf of try it in santa ana sonora it would of been too difficult he was never alone last time i saw him i counted 37 cars with at least 4 people in each of them and these fookers were carrying RPG’s….who was he working for? i have no idea ive been hearing a lot of stuff lately but for sure he didnt want any zetas in that region…in the interview if you really think about it he said a lot of stuff but to me it is really general stuff no names except his cousin cesar and he made chapo look really good…yes i think that was the point of the video i think they sent it to chapo before it aired to see if he liked it haha…
[Reply]
also they didnt get him in santa ana because his cousin placas compro la plaza so they let him do whatever they wanted…. abel murrieta wanted jabali in that region thats why they dropped all the charges against him in the state of sonora
[Reply]
according to my contactos in sinaloa, sonora y califas is that el jabali trabajo junto al mochomo for a long time under el Tio’s watchful eye….el jabali se alineo con el chapo porke tuvo diferencias con el arturon….el jabali is a heavyweight….he was more than a gatekeeper the supposedly 300,000 a month salary is bs…. las 2 toneladas de coca ke pasaba al mes eran de el….se las compraba al chapo pero he would reap the benefits….
[Reply]
i love the way the mexican govt. displays the capos when captured… and then they ask him the dumbest questions….to make it seem like they debrief these phuckers…. its all smoke and mirrors…
[Reply]
a little off the subject…have u seen this movie
[Reply]
I think this guy is alot more connected than they are letting on. The Villagrana name is well known both in Sonora and here in Arizona. More bad than good.
[Reply]
LAW ABIDING CITIZEN is a good movie!
[Reply]
Michel,
I thought his whole interview was BS. The whole bust looks like someone fed him to the dogs. And why would he tell on himself like that? Why would he tell on chapo like that? Don’t make sense. Looks staged.
[Reply]
a este amár los judas lo inyectaron y pues la entrevista la hizo todo drogado pero pues todo lo ke el dijo la ley ya lo sabia no es nada nuevo para ellos
[Reply]
Intresting Michael !! I think this guy was put up too it originally I had labeled him as a dry snithcher..lol..But you got some good points..Somone mentioned he was drugged and he looks awfully calm kinda in a chill state of mind..Whats this I read about charges dropped in Sonora??

[Reply]
Did you ever think maybe the government forced this guy to say he worked for chapo so that it seems like calderon’s people are actively persuing chapo……………..Its a win win situation for chapo cuz one of his competitors is out of the way and he looks good for making it seem like he is trying to protect the people from robbers and thiefs and kidnappers…………It also makes it look like calderon is persuing sinaloa people.
[Reply]
I’ve found 4 different items that say he was taken in Santa Ana. Here’s one by an AP writer:
http://thenews.com.mx/articulo/sinaloa-cartels-el-jabali-captured-10223
[Reply]
But then again …it also says Santa Ana borders AZ.
[Reply]
I’m an advocate for a healthy distrust of governments, but I hope this does not become a conspiracy theorists’ site.
[Reply]
well i mean u think it is coincidence there was article all over the place saying calderon was not coming down on sinaloa and all of a sudden this guy gets popped and he says he works for sinaloa so it makes it look like the government is not in cahoots with chapo and he talks about how chapo tried to make things peaceful and this guy got popped and is working for juarez so he is a chapo rival………….its win win for calderon and chapo……………I am with rabbit i think there will be peace when sinaloa wins out…….
[Reply]
Well, I don’t take sides, but that’s the way its heading, and that is the way the government wants is.
[Reply]
sinaloa, is surronded by zetas, their a long way from winning it.
[Reply]
look he was takwn from santa ana and he was apprehended because el chapo did not trust hem anymore .
Why? because he start buying the product directly from the source and only buying small portions from sinaloa so he dont loose the support.
I know this because some guy that knows some guy told me
[Reply]
Junior…. Was he a hitchhiker also?
lol, Im kidding
[Reply]
This is reality, in my opinion. Los zetas days are numbered, for one simple reason. Everyone or almost everyone wants them gone. Because they have made a mess of what used to be a profitable, thriving business. I don’t know who jumped whos plaza 1st but the fact remains that they took things to a much higher level. Torture, beheadings, dismemberment trade a short term solutions for long term problems. You can scare the shit out of people for only so long, Then they have had enough. The enemy of my enemy is my friend seems to apply here. When you use fear and intimidation as a recruitment tool you have loyalty only when you have power. On the other hand, Sinaloa and Sonora have always had close ties, recruitment is more family, and or friends based, the compa factor if you will. Power isn’t needed to have loyalty, only a common need. Look at recent history, the zetas worked for the gulf, how much power does that organization have anymore? They worked for ABL, wheres that organization? I am not taking a side, just pointing out some things that seem pretty clear.

good thing this guys were against kidnappings,…La Procuraduría General de Justicia del Estado informó que fue detenido Jorge Alberto Martínez Villagrana, alias el Coque Villagrana, de 19 años de edad, quien encabezaba una banda de secuestradores.
Aparentemente es sobrino de José Vásquez Villagrana El Jabalí, arrestado recientemente en el municipio de Santa Ana, Sonora y quien, según las autoridades federales, era operador de Joaquín Guzmán Loera, El Chapo.
El Coque Villagrana fue aprehendido en Santa Ana por elementos de la Policía Estatal Investigadora (PEI) tras el esclarecimiento del secuestro de una persona en esa región del norte de Sonora.
“Junto con El Coque Villagrana, de 19 años de edad, fueron detenidos Jesús Antonio Cáñez González, alias El Tony, de 18 años y Luis Ángel González González, de 19 años de edad, quienes confesaron su participación en el secuestro”, informó la Procuraduría en un comunicado.
La dependencia indicó que de acuerdo a las investigaciones realizadas por los elementos de la PEI, se logró establecer que el secuestro ocurrió el día 7 de marzo, cuando los ahora detenidos subieron a la fuerza a la víctima a un vehículo Infinity, color blanco, modelo 1992 de procedencia ilícita, después de amenazarlo con una pistola Magnum 357 cuando salía de su domicilio.
“Del sitio lo llevaron hasta un domicilio donde lo mantuvieron privado de su libertad, a la vez que se comunicaban con sus familiares a quienes les solicitaron cierta cantidad de dinero para dejarlo libre”, agregó.
Señaló que luego de pagar el rescate, realizado a la salida rumbo a Caborca, al norte de santa Ana, la víctima fue dejada en libertad en el mismo lugar, por lo que de inmediato se inició un operativo con el cual se detectó el vehículo el cual era abordado por los presuntos secuestradores.
“Los elementos estatales recuperaron una parte del pago del rescate, así como el vehículo utilizado en los hechos y el arma de fuego”, señalo el comunicado oficial

I don’t take sides but seems like the zetas days are numbered. How many of the original zetas with special forces training exist anymore. Plus everyone is against them you can only terrorize the general public for so long before there is a public outcry.look at beltran organization with their beheadings and public killings they didn’t last to long. There’s a long standing rtule to crime to be unde the radar mexican government and cartels are after zetas they are number one on the list. The government really doesn’t care about gringos doing drugs this is about stopping kidnapping and massacres and beheadings and making business go back underground. I don’t understand did jibali work for juarez or sinaloa cuz I am readin from this article conflicting stuff.
[Reply]
Zetas are a fad or the flavor of the month when it comes to Mexican drug trade the people will only have so much of somthing until they get tired of it and move on to better things.Nobody makes it to the top and stays at the top for ever, especially using violence and bullshit the ones who stay atop longer usually have diplomatic skills and can work with the goverment to achieve one big goal.Not only that theres alot of infighting between them and nothing breaks up a group faster that a little infighting.Some are siding with the Familia who openly works with Chapo down south and the ones up north with Juarez dont want shit to do with the ones down south.Typical northern mexicans who think theyre better than the southern folk who are usually shorter and darker complected..lol..j/k.Zeta on Zeta battles have become common in the state of Durango therfore loosing their credebility or Rancho Cred (equivelent of street cred here in the states..lol..) so their support is dwindling among the fanciers.They wont completly die because they still hold power and the financial support is still there from whoever calls the shots for them but people are really starting to resent them thanks to the media and smarter strategies by others.
[Reply]
Barbies ass is on a pedastool right now expect him to catch some heat cause he is now the first American Citezen to rise to the top of the ranks of a Mexican Drug Carel acording to the AP report.And now with Gulf.Chapo,and Familia aliance he might be out of the loop and I would think Beltran Leyva might wanna get back in touch with his roots if he still can and join the coalition before Barbies dick hoppin ass does unless he want to be the one out of the loop..BTW Zetas are not a real drug cartel in my opinion they are and always will be hired guns.They have the brains to be savages not to run a clean operation.All this stated is my own personal opinion I dont care for any of them nor do Cheerlead for any group this is just the way I see things unfolding and I could be wrong.

@ilegal
that dude is not jabali’s nephew he just says hes from the villagrana family ….he has never worked for jabali, jabali never gave him,his son or nephews any money cause he knew that they were up to no good thats why all those dudes traian un desmadre asaltando gente cause they had no money and jabali wasnt givin any to them and finally the guy that they appearently kidnapped owe them a lot of money thats why they did that
[Reply]
“join the coalition before Barbies dick hoppin ass does”
Dick hoping. LOL. Wonder which guy Barbie is going to romance now to survive. I for one think he is not capable of doing anything on his own.
[Reply]
I have met so many people claiming to be Zetas. Just like suburban white kids claim to be CRIPS. (Wtf?) Kind of pathetic. The original real zetas are gone. The zetas of today are only hired guns. Their usefulness is slowly running out. I wouldntt be surprised if in the near future, claiming to be a zeta will come with a bullet to the head or dismemberment. The prices on the streets are starting to be consistant. The end of this year will be intersting. What I am waiting to see is what Juarez does. Should be a good show this year. Let’s all hope for peace and that the senselessness stops.
[Reply]
jrmafia is correct I believe. It was not the drug smuggling that brought all this down. It started to really hit when all the womens bodies were being found in the dessert. But it has been the ‘In your Face’ brutality of the ZETAS that has caught national attention. Those assholes have turned shock tactics into an art. Everyone was willing to keep there eyes shut, while it was just drugs, until innocent children are left alone and youtube stops trying to shock people with the latest torture, it will keep on being on a problem.

From this article http://www.borderlandbeat.com/2010/03/clashes-beween-zetas-and-gulf-cartel.html#more
US intelligence believes barbie has alligned with sinaloa. THis would make sense since barbie cannot stand on his own and he has a deep hatred for the zetas and the zetas do for him to. He killed miguel trevinos brother in nuevo laredo remember. Also if i recall correct this beef with zetas and chapo and with abl probably has something to do with their brazzen use of violence. The ABL and chapo beef stems from mayo handing over mexico city airport to ABL and aturo putting El Grande in charge of the airport. Before that mayos brother was in charge of the airport and had extensive contacts in the airport. An honest customs agent seized a load of coke and El grande decapitated 12 airport employees. Also i am pretty sure Barbies days are numbered to he is another one who is brazen. SInaloa will use him for his intelligence because he worked with zetas an ABL. That whole incidence with cabanas the soccer player drew huge media attention. I like to think of a quote from the movie American Gangster “the loudest one in the room is not the strongest one in the room.” Order will be restored and the mexican government will turn a blind eye to drug trafficking keep in mind this is big money and they dont care if gringos do drugs.

Gente todo este pedo es por la nueva alianza entre el Chapo, CDG y la Familia. La gota que derramo el agua fue la presión de la sociedad por la muerte de los chavitos de la fiesta de Juárez y tantas otras chihuahuaderas.
El protegido del gob. El chapito en conjunto con la nueva alianza se levantaron en armas para ching.. a los Z por que estos últimos han desvirtuado el negocio del trasiego de la droga. Con sus Levantones, Cobro de piso. etc. Últimamente con sus pendejadas, valiéndole madre la libertad y tranquilidad del pueblo mexicano.

Gente de Reynosa: NO Manden a sus hijos a la escuela. eviten salir, si no es importante. hasta nuevo aviso, ya saben lo que esta pasando en las calles.
Gente de Monterrey: Sigan sus vidas normalmente, pero estén al pendiente de cualquier situación no entren en paranoia.

Papas verifiquen a sus chiquillos. Jr. Cuiden que no se crean narcos. por que se confunde con la gente y le dan piso.
El Gob. y la prensa no están hablando o están virando las atenciones. esto esta acordado.
Estamos en “guerra” pronto pasara.
Si eres Z correle porque hay viene el monstruo.
Para los Guarros los granadazos son para que se alineen con la nueva.
Guera Barbie después sigues tu.
“Gente no se preocupe si esta “alineado” no hay pedo, pero si no Correle.”
Y Zetillas como ustedes dicen pónganse bien pilas por que la compañía ya valió.

I don’t understand the warning towards Barbie. I thought he was the facilitator for this new alliance.
[Reply]
I have been trying to do some research on Jabali, because I didn’t know that much about him. I knew that he traveled with a shit load of security for a long time. But I found out something interesting. Just like a lot of the border bosses in southeastern Arizona, just about all of them worked for Juarez back in the day. There has been a major shift in power over the last few years, with the Chapo/mayo aliance. So in Jabali’s case, he did in fact work for Juarez at one point, but in the last 18 months so much has changed. Juarez has lost a lot of their footing. I hear that he wasn’t working for Juarez anymore. Heard he had some dealings with ABL until his death. But the more I watch the video, the more I believe the whole thing is staged.
[Reply]
@Rabbit
i dont know if it was staged because the dude was all druged…they gave gave him a shot of the so called truth serum (scopolamine or thiopental sodium) right in the forehead….and i am completely sure of this because somebody really really really close to him told me that…they told me that they are trying to get him out based on the fact that what they did to him is supposed to be illegal
