This secret agreement killed that US Customs officer of ours down in Mexico:
How it works in Mexico is if cartels learn you have some business relationship with, lessay, the Sinaloa Cartel, then “this guy belongs to the Sinaloa...”
They’ll think that even if there’s no elaborate induction ceremony that they witness.
When non-Sinaloa cartels heard of GayMuzzie’s “no busts for intel on the other cartels”-arrangement, that meant US LEO’s seen down in Mexico were considered as, “WITH the Sinaloa Cartel”. As such, these non-Sinaloa cartelistas saw US officers as legitimate targets.
Let’s just say the Mexican mind (and especially the cartelista mind) is muuuch further down the conceptual road for understanding that the cop/criminal separation distance can be slight, ok...?
That is their daily bread and butter.
THAT is why they gunned down that guy from US Customs —he probably did not know about Barry’s secret BS and was probably still thinking his badge protected him.
Sorry, but, uh...Barry and the NightStalker basically killed him.
Cartelistas considered him as, "with the Sinaloa"...?
