Narco Cultura Page #4

Synopsis: To a growing number of Mexicans and Latinos in the Americas, narco traffickers have become iconic outlaws and the new models of fame and success. They represent a pathway out of the ghetto - a new form of the American Dream, fueled by the war on drugs. NARCO CULTURA looks at this explosive phenomenon from within; cycles of addiction to money, drugs and violence that are rapidly gaining strength on both sides of the US/Mexican border.

Why'?

They decapited him alive.

Those animals out him up into

16 pieces.

Everybody saw when they took my

son.

It would have been better

if they killed him right there.

But they decapitated him alive.

That's what I can't stand.

The pain.

That I can't stand.

Shout, Juarez, Shout!

Shout about the pain they are

causing!

Why doesn't anybody shout'?

Today, Durango, I want you to pay attention

even if it hasn't happened to you.

But I want you to look around

YOU, and think and listen

to the pain of the cries:

"Give me back my son!

Give me back my father.

Give me back my brothers. "

Because if you don't cry today,

Durango.

If you don't go home with a new awareness

that tomorrow can't be the same as today

that tomorrow you can't live

the same as you lived today.

Tomorrow you have the responsibility

to build a better Durango

because if you don't become

aware today

tomorrow Durango will be an

abandoned homeland.

We've walked 3,400 km to get to

Ciudad Juarez

the epicenter of the pain of

this country.

The march stayed in Juarez for

two days.

Over those 48 hours, we kept

working like always,

and processed 19 more

homicides.

I want a protection blessing.

We're going to Mexico.

What part?

To Culiacn.

Close your eyes.

How good that you have faith.

What parts of your life would change if

someone gave you a million dollars'?

What wouldn't I do'?

Build a house for my mom and

dad.

A house for me and my family.

You have your plans, but in that moment you

won't know what to do with that money.

You know why'? Because you don't

need it.

You simply don't need that

money.

Or do you?

I just need my health and to

be...

Exactly. Health and security.

How old are you?

How old do I look?

Twenty-seven.

I just turned 60, and one day

you will too.

And at this age you have done

what you've done.

And once you complete your

mission then that's that.

I'll be back. Are you going to

behave?

No parties in the house okay'?

You. No after parties in the

hotel.

Not in Mexico. F*** no.

Mexico's dangerous.

Yeah I'm scared.

AK-47!

What did he say'?

He said AK-47!

Wait wait wait! What about me?

Stop lying to him, Edgar.

This is to everyone who says

BuKnas aren't in Culiacn.

Here we are right in the middle

of Culiacn!

On a little ranch outside the

city, here we are!

Check it out, look all around

us!

If you know it well, you'll

know where we are!

Hey, look at his shirt!

BuKnas, see'?

That's me, in the middle.

Is this all yours'?

Yeah, everything here is ours.

It's really peaceful here.

Well of course, this is our

territory.

You guys are the bosses here. Just

tell us what to do and when to do it.

Because you know how the water

runs here.

I don't want there to be any

problems.

We came for what we came for.

Do some singing, have a good

time...

We can go wherever we want.

I just feel grateful right now.

Happy and grateful for...

Even the dogs don't bark at us

here.

What?

Even the dogs don't bark at us

here.

This is the good stuff, bro.

My friend and I were cooking

meth.

We were happy, over there at

the ranch near Modesto.

When the DEA came,

the lookout was in place.

How much is in each bag?

One pound.

How much is that worth in

dollars?

$9,000 each in Los Angeles.

$100,000 total.

He traded in his boats

for pots to cook meth.

He brought it to Phoenix, Arizona

where he sold the "crystal".

Catrin and I will cook

and we'll send you the rocks.

Just keep working at it, the

gringos will keep smoking it.

That's the song. Put it on the

list.

You have to write down a few songs

so we can record them in L.A.

Anything I write in my garage

in L.A. is just bullshit.

You have to experience the real

thing to write about it.

I didn't hit a single one!

Arriba Culiacn, Sinaloa!

What a surprise to find you on

my ranch.

He'd been waiting for me for a

while.

Because I have so many hitmen.

They offered me so much money

I don't care what you say.

They paid me to kill him.

Right now, we're gonna play for

this guy.

And he's going to pay us cash.

He wants us to go now.

Here'? In here'?

No, we're going to his place.

Okay fine.

He's the son of "The Rooster of

Sinaloa. "

"The Rooster of Sinaloa"? Okay.

The private party's on. Let's

go.

I've got some "cuchita blanca. "

Four little grams of it.

Can I try some tomorrow'?

Yes of course. I'll give you

some to try.

How is life here?

It's the best, my friend.

It's the very best.

If you have money, you do

whatever you want.

Shoot guns...

smoke marijuana...

...in front of the poli-oops,

I didn't say anything.

Sometimes we shoot paintballs

at the transit cops.

Yeah we start shooting "boom

boom boom"

and they all go, "Ahhhh!"

They get really scared.

Money and happiness.

They're the same thing.

First you get the power,

then you get the money

then you get the b*tches.

...In other words.

I bring a bag full of ammo

of pure AK-47 and .45.

Don't presume to be brave

I have enough, thank God.

At the federales' checkpoint.

They only say to me, "Pass

through, sir".

Don't ask where I came from.

Much less where I'm going

lam a Sinaloense and very true

I have enemies, what can I do'?

I will never forgive traitors.

And if I fight, I won't lose.

I never get scared.

When provoked, I respond.

It was night and all of a

sudden

we started to hear a very loud

engine rumble.

And Richi thinks they're

policemen.

They pass near our car

and someone in the first truck

says:

"What's up faggots?"

And Richi turns around and

tells them:

"Go ahead, go ahead!"

Eight trucks pass by.

Really big trucks with masked

men inside.

That's when I said,

"These aren't policemen!"

Suddenly we were in the

eye of the hurricane.

Like that.

And the guy in the passenger

seat got out.

The guy who said "what's up

faggots?"

Yes, the guy who said "what's

up faggots. "

He was an elegant man.

With a trench coat nearly

touching the floor but elegant!

Classy shoes, nice pants and

shirt.

Skinny and with white hair.

You would think he was a

lawyer.

He comes down holding an AK-47.

He starts to tell us, Coco

first

with an AK-47 pointed at his

stomach.

"Don't you know who we are?"

"The truth is I don't. "

When they realized we weren't

doing anything

they started to leave.

All the vans took off.

The first thing Richi does is

get the radio

and call 23.

Nothing.

The next day Internal Affairs

called us in.

"Do you remember the trucks?"

I remembered that they were

luxury trucks.

"Did you see the plates?"

I saw them. I saw. But no, I

didn't see.

I didn't see anything.

I'm supposed to risk my life

and my family's life'?

How much more do we have to

deal with?

Will it change'?

Will this change'?

God willing.

One month after listening to

our conversation.

My friend Isaac Jesus Orona was

murdered.

He was ambushed near his home

becoming the fourth investigator

in our unit to be assassinated.

We're with you.
