A man accused of helping a Mexican drug kingpin dispose of hundreds of victims by dissolving their bodies in acid was arrested in the border city of Tijuana, authorities said yesterday.
A Mexican military statement said Santiago Meza Lopez confessed to disposing of at least 300 bodies over a decade, but authorities provided no further evidence to back the claim. Officials contend he dumped the bodies in graves, poured acid on them and let them dissolve underground.
The victims are believed to be rivals of Teodoro Garcia Simental, an alleged former lieutenant of the Tijuana-based Arellano Felix drug cartel, authorities said.
Soldiers and police paraded Meza, 45, before reporters at a cement-block shack on the outskirts of Tijuana where he allegedly disposed of the bodies. Two grave-sized holes had been dug near the walls.
The acid barrels is another one of their sports.
The gangs especially M13 are another problem.
The highest high school dropout rate are Mexicans.
It they get to the 10th grade, that is about it.
Next is crime and gov. handouts.
If you ever/have even seen the film “Touch of Evil (1958)” with Charlton Heston, Orson Welles, Janet Leigh, there is a scene in the first 30 minutes or so where a Mexican thug in TJ tries to throw a jar of acid at Chuck. He misses him and the jar hits a wall.
I guess the Mexicanos have been acidophiles for at least 50 years or so.
