Chapter 598 The Camorella Incident
In the conference room, vague Latin rap music sounded, and in the constantly shaking camera, a blood-stained wooden table with The photographer picked up the rusty trumpet ax and turned the camera towards himself, revealing his face covered with tattoos.
"Mexican people, remember. Only Andres Doza can protect you from foreign aggression."
Then the camera turned to a white man kneeling on the ground, and the next moment , swung the hand ax and chopped off half of the man's hand.
"Ah!" The shrill screams echoed in the small conference room, and everyone's expressions darkened. Even Sonny Quinn, who had been carelessly biting a toothpick, his face The cynical smile on his face was gone.
The camera kept shaking, and the cruel torture continued. After 5 minutes, many people could not bear to lower their heads. Feeling that the heat was almost over, Jack turned off the video.
"The total length of this video is thirty minutes." He just added this and returned to his seat.
The air in the conference room seemed to be solid. Anyone with a normal mind would feel sad when seeing such a cruel scene.
What's more, the victim was a DEA agent, and the people present were all Americans. It is inevitably reminiscent of the Camorella incident that shocked the world in the 1980s. .
Camorella is not a place, but a name. His experience is a thorn in the heart of all Americans who still have conscience.
The time goes back to 1974, not long after the DEA was established, and a Mexican Marine named Kiki Camorella volunteered to be recruited.
Camorella, who spent his childhood in Mexico, suffered deeply from drug addiction. After joining the DEA, he has been fighting on the front line of anti-drugs. He has done a great job, but he is also desperate because he It was discovered that cracking down on drug traffickers only within federal borders is simply treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.
He believed that if the source could not be destroyed, new drug traffickers would appear like gophers, so in 1980, Camorella resolutely applied to his superiors to be transferred to the DEA in Guarda, Mexico. Lahara's office.
In Mexico at that time, drug trafficking groups were still changing from the old-fashioned "farmer group with a social basis" to the modern model of "using military methods to kill and hiring economists and lawyers to cover up".
Guadalajara was the largest distribution center for drug gangsters in Mexico at that time, with various forces spread throughout it. It was like the Jerusalem of the drug gangster kingdom.
At this time, the Guadalajara drug cartel had not yet split. It was at its peak, and even the then Mexican president was bribed by the drug cartel and became their patron.
The stubborn Camorella used his own strength to tear a hole in the Iron Curtain.
In the 1980s, when the good guy "Carter" had just stepped down and the "actor" President came to power, the federal government launched a wave of severe drug control. Camorella spent four years submitting a document containing Detailed evidence including photos, transportation routes, transaction methods, etc.
Faced with federal pressure, Mexican officials had no choice but to take action. More than 400 soldiers descended from the sky, raided the "Buffalo Ranch" with an annual output value of US$8 billion, and destroyed thousands of hectares of its land. The field was burned with a torch.
Subsequently, a drug smuggling plane flying from Guadalajara to Arizona, USA, was intercepted, and 0.7 tons of cocaine was confiscated. The Mexican drug lords responsible for the transportation had to report to the Colombians Compensation for more than 100 million US dollars in payment.
Destroying people's wealth is like killing their parents. The furious Guadalajara drug cartel had already connected with the CIA at that time. It was at its most arrogant moment that it immediately and without any scruples attacked the Americans living in Guadalajara. Start killing.
In less than a month, seven Americans were arrested, tortured and tortured to death. Just when they had no clue, some people in the CIA who also suffered losses took action. .
Someone in the CIA betrayed Camorella to the Guadalajara Group. There were even rumors that a CIA agent personally participated in the planning and deceived Camorella out of the consulate.
What followed was 36 hours of brutal torture. A private doctor named Humberto participated in the entire process. In order to keep Camorella awake throughout the process, he would be injected with injections at regular intervals. Large doses of amphetamines. A month later, Camorella's body was found beside a highway in Michoacán. The skin of his entire lower body had been peeled off, with no teeth left. His skull was deformed, and all the bones in his body, including his ribs, were missing. Almost none of them are intact.
The fatal injury was a long steel nail on the top of his head. The forensic autopsy report showed that the steel nail was hammered into the top of his head bit by bit. Judging from the terrifying content of amphetamine in Camorella's body, he He was forced to persist until the last moment of his life in a state of sobriety and in endless pain.
The CIA's involvement was not yet known at the time, but when Camorella's autopsy report was sent back to the federation and reported by the media, the whole world became a sensation.
The faceless "actor" Reagan immediately put pressure on the CIA, and some people were forced to hand over the entire recording of Camorella's violence, which became the conviction of the La Jala Cartel. key evidence.
The federal government then issued an ultimatum to Mexico, demanding that all those involved be brought to justice. Mexican officials were very aware of the current situation and arrested the three leaders of the Guadalajara Group, Rafael Carlo Quint. Luo, Ernesto Fonseca and Miguel Felix.
But under the money offensive, Mexican officials miraculously withstood federal pressure. All these drug lords were sentenced to long-term imprisonment and were released from prison one after another in the following ten years. However, Guadalajara The La Group collapsed and "El Chapo" Guzman rose. That is another story.
There have always been many secrets that have been made public or are still unknown, such as the disgraceful role played by the CIA, the almost public protection of these drug lords by Mexican officials, and the internal affairs of the DEA. The same not-so-clean shit.
So when Jack saw this video, he had a clearer understanding of the reason why he appeared here.
Obviously, once this video is exposed to the media, it will definitely cause an uproar, which will undoubtedly bring back some bad memories among the domestic people.
This is a result that no matter which side of the "donkey" or "elephant" parties want to see. After all, everyone's butts are not clean when it comes to drug abuse, and no one wants to be treated indiscriminately. Killing bombs spread.
Therefore, the Federation must respond immediately and carry out retaliatory actions, whether it is arresting Andres Doza back to the Federation or simply killing him directly. Only in this way can this funeral be silenced in advance. Happy event.
As for the CIA and DEA, although both sides know that fighting again will only hurt both sides, a certain scar between them has been torn open again. It is definitely useless to expect the two to trust and cooperate as before.
Some of the people above have obviously tasted the benefits of the previous joint operation that Jack participated in. Although a CIA agent died and the final goal was not achieved, the operation was still "successful" in name. Several drug traffickers were killed, and the pressure on the border was reduced.
And this also proves one thing. Even with the joint participation of multiple departments, holding each other back and watching each other's every move, the CIA and DEA slickers are still willing to work hard, at least really The root cause of the failure of that operation was that there was a traitor in Mexico, not...
So the FBI and the previous departments, which had nothing to do with both parties in theory, were dragged into this retaliatory operation. And Jack was also named because of his outstanding performance.
In fact, it was not that the SEALs selected Jack from a candidate list, but that this was the only candidate given to them. The order Jason Hayes received was that FBI personnel must participate in the entire process. , while ensuring his safety as much as possible.
This led to the so-called adaptive training three months in advance, which was also the only condition proposed by the military. Although judging from past cooperation, the military and the CIA have worked together more often, but they can never completely fall back on each other. Some side.
They are also afraid that the CIA will do something small in this matter and let the military take the blame.
As for the CIA's insistence on capturing Andres Doza alive, whether it was to obtain a confession from the other party to prove his innocence, or whether it had some other idea, it is not known.
Just as the military representative Colonel Harrington said at the end of the meeting, after breaking the somewhat dull atmosphere.
“No one can treat an American like this. Do you understand that you go to Mexico, find Doza, cuff him or put him in a coffin before you can come back?”
