THE BORDER REPORT

One of those reader comments that caught my attention for its writing, from Valentina Isabella. Vicente Zambada-Niebla is going to be crucified for being his father’s son. No one in the U.S. knows, or cares to research any viable details about the drug cartels in Mexico. Between Juarez, Beltran-Leyva and Sinaloa, it’s basically all the same. Granted, the Sinaloa cartel is not even fully responsible for what’s going on in Ciudad Juárez. But I suppose it’s much easier for the Mexican government to blame it on the drug cartels, instead of the resources (like jobs that can sustain a family, education, opportunities) that the government itself fails to provide their people. Everything that’s completely irrelevant to his case and the charges he’s been charged with will be tainted with the violence in Juarez and along the border, the fact that he’s El Mayo Zambada’s son, and let’s not forget “all” the eveidence that the government will provide. If the U.S. Attorney’s office in Chicago is referring to testimony from the Margarito and Pedro twins and their drug dealers, then it’s not enough and it’s unfair. I’m sure if I were ever in their position I would say whatever the U.S. government wants me to say, seriously, I would say anything, anything at all to save my own ass. Zambada-Niebla is going to have an unfair trial in Chicago and that’s an unfortunate fact. The worst part is that we’re all just going to sit back and watch. This isn’t the justice system I believe in. I would never go for the heart simply because I could get the head, the heart being Vincete Zambada-Niebla and the head being his father. They are going to punish him in order to punish his father. “The soul who sins is the one who will die. The son will not share the guilt of the father, nor will the father share the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous man will be credited to him, and the wickedness of the wicked will be charged against him.” Ezekiel 18:20 On that note, if anyone should see their day in court, it should be whatever the hell is left of the Beltran-Leyva cartel and Los Zetas.
