THE BORDER REPORT

Someone was asking the other day about whether narcos use MySpace. Apparently, and thank you alert readers who sent this over, they do.

Meet accused narco-armadór, Victor Varela, arrested last night at his Tucson home. According to his MySpace account, Varela is going to be a father in September. And he likes money a lot. And that's really all he has to say for himself.

The Feds, particularly ATF, have a little more to say. It seems Varela was buying guns in Arizona and selling them to Vicente Carrillo Fuentes' cartel in Ciudad Juárez.

It's actually a bit entrepreneurial: Valera's accused of doing the buys and running the weapons down to Mexico, thereby fulfilling the two biggest needs for the Juárez Cartel. The Feds say he'd picked up a .50-cal. to run down to Palomas and was looking to pick up an M-60 to light up little Columbus, New Mexico, with. I'm waiting on a few things, I'll add a little more about Varela in the morning.
