If you go to Baja...

[hgsouth]

The police didn't follow them back to the resort just to push this guy off a balcony

That said, I'm way more scared of sketchy construction and low railings in mexico than I am of people. Almost got trapped in a shower once when the giant glass door came off the tracks. If I was a little old lady I woulda died in there lol

I am glad Elliot Blair was embalmed in Mexico.

 

[Bob Dobbalina]

I mean, I'm not an expert on how many places your skull cracks when falling off the balcony, but at this rate, I can't wait for this podcast...

But yeah, it sounded shady and keeps sounding shadier. We'll see if that's because it's a cover up or if it's just because it sounds salacious and drives clicks. Listening to my wife recount the developments the other day while I shook my head thinking, "well yeah, that's what the ERbb said" was pretty funny. Morbid, but funny.

He was involved in cartel stuff in some way.

Crooked cops did recon to ID him

That info was passed along and a hitman took care of him at the hotel.

theres only two real possibilities, one is his wife wanted him offed. this is not likely considering the method used.

two is it was a cartel hit. this is most likely since we now know he was dragged behind a vehicle and mexicos inability to figure out the culprit. they know who is responsible.

A cartel hit? The people that I have personally known that have been the recipients of a cartel hit, and I'd need all 8 fingers and two thumbs plus to count them, doesn't smell anything like this. Here's a clue: The body wouldn't have been found under the balcony of his hotel room. There's a distinct difference between a cartel hit and simple homicide.

It would be important to have more legit details on this particular situation. My personal experience is that if they want to make an example out of you they hang you from a bridge with a message around your neck, put one behind your ear and leave you in a ditch or on your front porch, or in a shallow grave. What's your personal experience?

Google Carlos Alberto Rosales Mendoza, he was my closest neighbor for 25 years when he wasn't in the carcel. I never had a problem with him.

"And drag him behind a truck. Road rash won't raise any eyebrows."

Plenty of them go down with just a bullet in the head.

I bet there is cocaine in the story somewhere.

My understanding with people I've known personally is that here there is usually some "foreplay" before el tiro de gracias. This guy was no player, no reason to think there was anything more than some kind of local shakedown involved. Or his wife.

Are you guys going to watch the new movie Cocaine Bear?
I can’t wait to see this one.
Comes out this Friday.

 

[tenover]

I couldn't *not* look up "Cocaine Bear"

People also ask:

What is Cocaine Bear based on?

Cocaine Bear is an upcoming American horror comedy film directed and co-produced by Elizabeth Banks and written by Jimmy Warden. It is inspired by the true story of the "Cocaine Bear", an American black bear that ingested a duffel bag full of cocaine in 1985.
