Warning Graphic: Gulf Cartel Hitmen Murder Entire Family Near Texas Border
Breitbart News Network ^ | 10 Jul 2015 | Ildefonso Ortiz

Posted on 07/10/2015 10:09:15 AM PDT by george76

A group of Gulf Cartel gunmen murdered a grandmother, her son, and her three grandchildren—one of them only 10-years-old—in the latest chapter of inhuman horror taking place just south of the Texas border.

The murder took place Wednesday night in a rural community known as La Soledad in the border city of Rio Bravo not far from the banks of the Rio Grande.

The victims were identified as 65-year-old Vicenta Garcia Sanchez, her son, 39-year-old Fidel Martinez Garcia, and her three grandchildren: 19-year-old Fidel, 15-year-old Alexis, and 10-year-old Pedro...

a group of hitmen went to the area and dragged the family out of house in order to question them as to the whereabouts of two men believed to belong to a rival group.

When the gunmen were not able to get any answers from the family they went ahead and executed them moments before ransacking the house

. ..

Rio Bravo Zona De Peligro has identified them as members of a cell under the leadership of a Gulf Cartel commander known as Miguelito “Metro 56.”

Well, it did happen South of the border. While it may be tragic.....it didn’t happen within our borders.

I also have to think that somehow the grandmother was, in fact, connected to the ‘rival group’.

Metro 56 sounds very much like he took his gang handle from an old police radio code.

It’s probably a former Mexican federali of some kind.

It’s a little bit like BATF guys running guns to Mexico.

Both sides of the border there are an active
‘war zone’ which our nation could remedy in a heart beat....more deaths on our border then what we see in foreign conflict.....the deaths alone should have called for our military to secure our order....so it looks like there are peoples in our government who are benefiting from this conflict continuing.

They just need jobs. We should bring them here and give them everything for free.

From the picture, it looks like the one guy who was executed was wearing a “wife-beater” also.

The Mexico Gov’t is too corrupt to fix this.

The American gov’t needs to go after these cartels with military strikes.

They’re too cowardly and mis-motivated to do so.

“The American gov’t needs to go after these cartels with military strikes.”

A few canisters of napalm would really alter their view in a hurry.

The killers must have seen a Confederate flag on youtube and become enraged.

Do you know how hot it gets down here? If I could get away with it, I’d wear nothing but a grass flap over my privates.
