CRIME SCENE VIDEO: Drug Cartel Assassinates US Consulate Workers
Friends of Ours ^ | 03/14/10 | Friends of Ours

In Ciudad Juárez, Mexico -- just over the border from El Paso, TX -- gunmen for a drug cartel assassinated "an American consulate worker and her husband to death . . . and killed the husband of another consular employee and wounded his two young children" in separate but coordinated incidents as reported by Marc Lacey for The New York Times:

It was not the first attack against American interests in Mexico by traffickers. Unknown attackers shot at and hurled a grenade that never exploded at the American consulate in Monterrey in 2008. But the killings in Ciudad Juárez on Saturday afternoon of two American citizens and a Mexican national married to an American government employee appeared to take the violence to a new, brutal level. * * * The Ciudad Juárez shootings took place within minutes of each other about 2:30 p.m. on Saturday. The victims had left a social gathering at another consulate worker’s home when they were attacked, officials said. The first attack was reported at 2:32 p.m. Jorge Alberto Salcido Ceniceros, 37, the husband of a consulate worker, was found dead in a white Honda Pilot, with bullet wounds to his body. In the back seat, were two injured children, one aged four and one seven. They were taken to the hospital for treatment. * * * Another call came in exactly 10 minutes later, several miles away. This time it was a Toyota RAV 4 with Texas plates that had been shot up, with two dead adults inside and a baby crying from a car seat in the back, the authorities said. A relative identified the dead couple to The Associated Press as Lesley A. Enriquez, 25, a consulate employee, and her husband, Arthur H. Redelf, 30, from across the border in El Paso, Texas.

If we can’t give our consulate adequate protection, we need to pull them out of the danger zone. The best solution to the drug-trafficking problems on the border cities and it’s related violence would be a military one. Go in with force and take out the trash.

If we’d just end this silly WOD, all this crime and violence would simply disappear.

And we’d all be rich by taxing the legalized drugs.

“Assassinated them to death?”

Exactly what I said to myself when I read this.

Ever known anyone who was ruined by meth?

It is nothing less than shocking how quickly it takes your normal, average person and turns them into a rotting corpse.

I bet they’re just upset that they don’t have a path to citizenship...

More serious than assassinating them to sleep.

The CIA doesn’t like to see US consulate workers killed. They are there representing the US AND the President. 0bama needs to return wet work with wet work. No pussy-footing no equivocation and no time line. Just do it.

Well clearly the only way to end this is to grant them all amnesty.
