“The cartel boss — Miguel Treviño — is highly upset over the fact that these individuals shot and killed Mr. Hartley and it's our understanding that the cartel boss is hunting for the killers of Mr. Hartley so he can take care of them himself,” said Fred Burton, STRATFOR's vice president of intelligence.

Riiiggght.

And decapitating an investigator???? That was an "oopsie" moment also?

Either way, an innocent American is dead and nothing is done about it.

Would this “global intelligence company” happen to be the bleeding-heart, Socialist, left-wing nutjob Democratic Party?

Build a cordon sanitaire around the region then drain the lake. These pukes gotta’ come out some time and just shoot them down.

There is so much wrong with this 'defense' I don't know where to begin.

Do they really....I mean...really....think we're that stupid!

““The cartel boss — Miguel Treviño — is highly upset...”

...I expect that he is...really. This kind of stuff is bad for business...but I bet he’s not so upset that he would give the widow say $5 million in compensation.

Nothing???

Don’t you see in the article where the politicians are “harrumphing” about this?

“was a case of mistaken identity”... that’s one of many possible scenarios.

Hartley’s body likely was destroyed...
Our understanding that the cartel boss is hunting for the killers of Mr. Hartley...
the beheading... was a stern signal..

No facts presented just a lot of conjecture.

She said she raced to U.S. shores without her husband...
gunfire trailing her well across the U.S. line.

So, was she mistaken for a rival 'spy'?

the death of U.S. citizen David Michael Hartley on Falcon Lake was a case of mistaken identity in a turf war between rival drug cartels.

Oh well, I guess that makes it all right then. Let's move on.

They will probably never find the body. The cartels have various ways of making sure there is nothing left. They have things that look human that work for them that think nothing of taking a body apart and feeding it to vultures, for example. They take the body and stake it down by the neck, cut the flesh open and then let the vultures pick everything away down to the skeleton. After that they grind the bones up until there is nothing left.

“Once Hartley was identified as an American, his body was destroyed the same day as the incident to prevent a backlash from the U.S. government against the group,” the report states.

From THIS U.S. government??? Oh, please... they really have no need to worry.

“...a stern signal to both the United States and Mexico that no body will be produced and to leave the situation alone.”
In other words the cartel is in charge here. Time to send a stern signal to the contrary.

A cover up from the white house..

I do not believe for one minute this story..The fact is these savages are telling people to stay away and it has happened before them shooting at people,there is no telling how many Americans they have killed and and no one knows ..Has anyone noticed that Obama has not said a word against the filthy Mexicans that murdered this young man or about this for that matter..I have not heard one word from him(maybe someone else has)..It is like nothing happened according to Washington..I think Obama is afraid his pay check will go away from the drug dealers if he says a thing..Like he doesn't say anything against the Muslim terrorist and he says nothing about the murdering filthy Mexican drug dealers..

The American regime is casting about for a rationale for doing nothing, and will hang its collective hat on this "finding."

Please, God, let us survive 0bama...

Nope. They’re a pro-military, pro-American group. You can login and see foreigners grouse about stuff in the comments.

What'll THAT be from this group of sniveling punka**es running the country? A strongly worded letter and a visit by Jimmy Carter with an offer to negotiate?
