An incredibly strange move by the cartel.
According to a report from The New York Post, a secretive faction of Mexico’s notorious Gulf Cartel apologized —in a handwritten note —for the kidnapping and killing of American citizens.
The cartel turned over 5 men responsible along with the apology note.
“The Gulf Cartel Grupo Escorpiones strongly condemns the events of Friday, March 3 in which unfortunately an innocent working mother died and four American citizens were kidnapped, of which two died,” a translation of the letter says. “For this reason, we have decided to hand over those involved and directly responsible for the events who at all times acted under their own determination and indiscipline and against the rules in which the CDG has always operated.”
In its letter, the Gulf cartel said it respects the “life, tranquility and integrity of the innocent” and apologized to “the society of Matamoros … the affected American individuals, and families.”
“In addition, the CDG asks society to remain calm because we are committed to ensuring that these errors caused by indiscipline aren’t repeated. The guilty parties will pay, regardless of who they are,” the letter reads.
