Mexican soldiers captured a 14-year-old U.S. citizen suspected of being a drug gang hitman as he attempted to travel to the United States.
Edgar Jimenez, known as "El Ponchis," worked for the South Pacific drug cartel in Morelos state, outside Mexico City, the army said Friday.
The boy was caught late Thursday as he boarded a plane in the city of Cuernavaca in Morelos. He was travelling to the border city of Tijuana across from San Diego, California, with two of his sisters, one of whom is believed to be the lover of one of the cartel's bosses, the army said.
The three Jimenez siblings reportedly had wanted to cross to San Diego, where they have relatives.
"El Ponchis" made headlines last month as reports of his grisly murders, including beheadings, surfaced. He acknowledged having killed at least seven people and the influence of drugs provided by a cartel leader, according to the army statement. It was not immediately clear what his nickname refers to.

Well, if it weren't for Americans buying drugs, the country probably would be at peace -- or at least, not in the middle of a drug-cartel war.
“He acknowledged having killed at least seven people “
And only 14 years old. Sad.
He is probably an illegal or his parenst are illegals.
I have no problem with the Mex govt putting this vermin in front of a firing squad....
....and I expect them to expect the same from us for their vermin.
Mexico removed the Death Penalty a few years ago (and refuses to extradite to the USA in Capital cases).
The mood in Camino Primera these days in Mexico is massively frustrated and downright angry.
Let’s see if they change the rules to execute this punk. If so, that works to the USA advantage since we can start prosecuting criminals for capital cases without having to compromise our prosecutorial discretion.

‘Well, if it weren’t for Americans buying drugs, the country probably would be at peace — or at least, not in the middle of a drug-cartel war. “
yeah cause we all know Americans are the only people who use illegal drugs.
Were they using a juvie, because they didn’t think the Americans would suspect him, or because they mistakenly believe we wouldn’t prosecute him as an adult?
**** liberals, a kid at the age of 14 should know better, therefore at this point, he needs to be executed.
*I have no problem with the Mex govt putting this vermin in front of a firing squad....*
....and I expect them to expect the same from us for their vermin.
I think that any gang member who commits an act of violence should be hung from a light pole in their gang territory for a couple weeks.
He looks like a Simpsons charcter
Does “el ponchis” translate to “the little turd?”
In an 'early-recovery' kind of way.
Well, Americans use a hell of a lot of them. Which is why the drug cartels are most active in the vicinity of the US border.
Theres where the blsme really lies, Mexis are just
trying to take advantage of the opportunity.
I wonder how much of the latin American cartels’ market in the US is among their own diaspora.
“Which is why the drug cartels are most active in the vicinity of the US border. “
Most active? Have you been to other countries?
20% of men in Yemen are addicts.
The cartels are active in South America because the US has money and the borders are WIDE open.
“Were they using a juvie, because they didn’t think the Americans would suspect him, or because they mistakenly believe we wouldn’t prosecute him as an adult?”
Don’t think they care about what happens to their henchmen. A kid isn’t perceived at first to be a threat so he has an edge on his target.
They caught a U.S. citizen in Mexico? Will they give him amnesty and say he’s just doing the work that Mexican won’t do?
