Fake Cartel Boss Arrested For Instigating Crimes on Facebook

A Mexican man who pretended to be a drug cartel member on Facebook could spend six months in jail on charges of instigating crimes.

Martin Juarez Campos, a 24-year-old man arrested Saturday, claimed to be a member of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel on his Facebook page, The Costa Rica Star reported.

Campos posted threatening messages and photos and videos of armed men and luxury cars, according to a news release from the Jalisco state attorney general’s office.

The 24-year-old man last uploaded a video of him opening a gift-wrapped box containing a gold-plated pistol with encrusted diamonds, the Star reported. He thanked “El Mencho,” the nickname of the cartel’s leader Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes.

After his arrest, investigators determined that Campos had no ties to drug cartels or its members and posted the photos and videos to his Facebook profile for fun.

The newspaper reported that investigators discovered Campos is a forklift operator who lived in Guadalajara.

Campos is being held in the Puente Grande prison facility in Jalisco, according to the Star.

El Chapo Has A $100 Million Bounty On Donald Trump

Personally, I don’t know whether or not to believe this story.

El Chapo is probably the most wanted man on Earth right now, I doubt if Donald Trump’s ignorant & hypocritical statements to the media are on the forefront of his list of concerns.

However, I have full confidence in El Chapo’s ability to “get at” the Donald if he really wanted to. He is only perhaps the cartel’s most ruthless & powerful boss.

Unconfirmed reports resurfaced Tuesday that escaped Mexican drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán allegedly upped his campaign against Donald Trump recently by putting a $100 million bounty on the American billionaire’s head.

El Chapo, who’s been on the run since escaping from prison in July, reportedly told inmates before he fled that he was offended by Trump’s comments insulting Mexican immigrants, according to Telesur.

“He was mad. He wants Donald Trump dead and will pay any amount of money if meant he could have Donald Trump’s head,” an anonymous inmate told Most Extreme News, which has a reputation as a satirical news site.

Rapper Bobby Shmurda’s Trial Date Moved To January 2016

Ackquille “Bobby Shmurda” Pollard and his GS9 affiliates will have to wait until next year for their conspiracy, drugs and weapons possession trial to begin. According to reports, the “Hot N*gga” rapper will return to court on January 11.

Shmurda also once again lost a bid for bail. His bail was originally set at $2 million, and he has yet to cover the cost required to exit from jail. Shmurda and 14 other defendants have been incarcerated since their arrest in December of 2014.

The 21-year-old Epic Records artist acquired a new attorney as well. Alex Spiro of Brafman & Associates will now be handling his case. Spiro appeared in court with Shmurda on Monday to argue his client should be released prior to trial.

Special Narcotics Prosecutor Nigel Farinha reminded the court that Shmurda has been denied bail at least four times. Farinha claims the accused performer has a net worth of half a million dollars and ties to individuals in Florida.
