17 Charged With Brutal Kidnappings, Slayings In San Diego

Authorities announced charges Thursday against a Mexican gang that took Tijuana-style violence to the upscale suburbs of San Diego County, kidnapping, torturing and killing well-to-do residents, even after some families paid large ransoms.

The gang, a rogue cell of the Tijuana-based Arellano Felix drug cartel, moved across the border in 2002 and posed as U.S. law enforcement, donning FBI and police uniforms and caps while snatching victims outside homes and public places, said San Diego County prosecutors.

Nine victims were killed from 2004 to 2007, and the bodies of two of them were dissolved in chemicals at a rented house in San Diego. Gang members were also

"This is one reason why the United States life expectancy is lower than many other countries around the world. Zero's "organized" Chicago has weekly massacres"

Considering Ruth Race-Bater Ginsberg's recent Eugenic-based comment that she thought abortions were going to target those undesirables, this must be part of their master plan.

Look at the socioeconomic profile of the people involved (both perps and victims) - they're primarily inner city kids of color. It's been like that since I can remember. Factor in the party who runs these crime-ridden hell holes and it's clear the Rats want cycles of "cleansing" through violence since it reduces the ranks of the lower class, creates employment opportunities for union employees related to crime (votes for Rats), and creates an easy to manufacture bogyman oppressor who is always white and Republican. Throw in free, readily available abortion and the Rats have their perfectly balanced poverty / Eugenics death cycle that keeps the votes coming, while thinning their ranks. What a perfectly concealed self perpetuating cycle of evil - right in plain sight.

Thanks for the ping Aunt B.

DOJ, DHS and Mexico Announce Arrangement to Bolster Investigative Cooperation on International Firearms Trafficking Cases

WASHINGTON - Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Janet Napolitano, Mexican Attorney General Eduardo Medina-Mora, Mexican National Public Security System Executive Secretary Jorge Tello Peón, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Acting Director Kenneth E. Melson and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Assistant Secretary John Morton today signed a Letter of Intent to develop a coordinated and intelligence-driven response to the threat of cross border smuggling and trafficking of weapons and ammunition.

“The Letter of Intent illustrates our unconditional commitment to improve public safety in the United States and Mexico, and strengthens our determination to investigate and share intelligence to combat international firearms trafficking and violent crime,” said Deputy Attorney General David W. Ogden. “Law enforcement agencies in both nations recognize the importance of tracing every crime gun recovered on the Southwest Border to help determine trafficking patterns and potential traffickers of illicit firearms. ATF is committed to its strong partnership with ICE in working collaboratively to reduce firearms-related violent crime as we stem the diversion of firearms to international criminal markets.”

“Enforcing our laws at the border requires close collaboration with our international and domestic allies to ensure our mutual security,” said Secretary Napolitano. “This arrangement signifies our continued commitment to working with Mexico to stop violence and deter criminal activity that threatens safety on both sides of the border.”

The letter signed today, supported by President Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderón, will leverage the combined investigative capabilities of ICE, ATF and Mexico’s Procurador General de la Republica to combat violence and criminal activity along the U.S.-Mexico border.

The Letter of Intent recommends a joint strategic implementation plan to develop cooperative protocols to investigate weapons and ammunition trafficking in the United States and Mexico and improve information sharing between the two countries to better identify smuggling and trafficking trends and support bilateral investigation efforts.

DOJ and DHS recently enhanced coordination between ATF and ICE to combat international firearms trafficking and between DEA and ICE to disrupt and dismantle drug trafficking organizations.
