The cartel that gunned down a North Carolina charter school teacher when he tried to rob one of their stash houses is one of the largest drug trafficking organizations on the planet - and has a penchant for violence, revenge and even cannibalism.
The Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación, or the New Generation Jalisco Cartel, has murdered judges, congressmen, cops and their own brethren in their bloody battle to control the US drug trade and stamp out competition, the Washington Post previously reported.
Last week, authorities say cartel’s members turned their scopes on 40-year-old Barney Harris - a Spanish teacher and basketball coach for Union Academy in Monroe - when he attempted to steal thousands in cash and pounds of cocaine from one of their trailers.
While Harris donned a bulletproof vest for the job, the gear was no match for the ammunition cartel leaders allegedly pumped into his body when they found him inside their stash house, Alamance County Sheriff Terry Johnson said at a news conference.
“It was almost like an old Western shootout,” Johnson said of the gunfire Harris and his brother-in-law exchanged with the cartel members.
The small-town school teacher never stood a chance against a cartel notorious for vicious acts of revenge, public displays of violence and ruthless pursuit of anyone who dares to cross them.

Meanwhile, nobody’s appalled that this guy was teaching their kids.
Wow I think it needs a BARF alert.
President Rutabaga wants these guys (the cartel) to have easy access to the U.S.
So he committed suicide?
Dumb move on the “teacher’s” part.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Suicide by cartel?
Seems so. Not the first tine I’ve heard of it happening.
The cartels have crossed the border?
“Meanwhile, nobody’s appalled that this guy was teaching their kids.”
That is what I was thinking. What is this dude doing teaching our children?
Monroe. Yep. The last town in NC to desegregate.
The teachers brother was also involved but not mentioned in the article.
What....are supposed to feel sympathy for this “teacher”? Good f’n riddance!
“President Rutabaga”
Best chuckle of the day, so far. Thanks.
i think it was his brother-in-law actually. they must have needed some extra cash. I also think this guy taught spanish so maybe he was brought in to translate the robbery. I’d be moving the rest of the family to somewhere cold and far away right now.
