Mexican authorities set free a former teen cartel hit man on Tuesday and sent him back to the United States.
The release of Edgar Jimenez Lugo, a U.S. citizen known as "El Ponchis" or "The Cloak," comes less than three years after a Mexican court found him guilty of torturing and beheading at least four people and kidnapping three others as an operative for the South Pacific Cartel.
The teenager's age -- 14 at the time -- and his on-camera description of the slayings, brought international attention to the case. Analysts said the dramatic example showed how Mexican drug gangs were increasingly recruiting youths.

These "child advocacy" people are nuts. Upset that they "paraded" him in front of cameras? WTF idiots. He should have been paraded in front of a large firing squad. And, now he's back in the US? When will people start using their f-ing brains?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if we could talk him into going to D.C.?
