Who is Reinaldo Fuentes Campos?
Reinaldo Fuentes Campos, also known as El Taliban, was a notorious drug trafficker and leader of a criminal organization called Los Zetas. He was born in Mexico in 1975 and joined the Mexican Army in 1993. He later deserted and became a member of the Gulf Cartel, a powerful drug cartel that operated in northeastern Mexico. He rose through the ranks and became the leader of a faction of the cartel called Los Zetas, which was composed of former military personnel. He was responsible for many violent crimes, such as kidnappings, extortions, murders, and massacres. He was also involved in a bloody war with other rival cartels, such as the Sinaloa Cartel and the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.
What happened to him?
Reinaldo Fuentes Campos was captured by the Mexican authorities in 2012 and extradited to the United States in 2015. He was charged with several counts of drug trafficking, money laundering, and murder. He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2017. He was incarcerated at the ADX Florence, a maximum-security federal prison in Colorado, also known as the “Supermax”.
However, in August 2023, a shocking video surfaced on the internet that showed Reinaldo Fuentes Campos being thrown onto the high seas from a helicopter. The video, which was allegedly recorded by one of his former associates who betrayed him, showed Reinaldo being handcuffed and blindfolded, while being escorted by armed men to a helicopter. The video also showed him being pushed out of the helicopter and falling into the water, while screaming and begging for mercy. The video ended with a message that read “This is what happens to traitors”.
Why was he thrown onto the high seas?
The motive behind Reinaldo’s execution is unclear, as the video does not provide any details or explanations. However, some sources have speculated that Reinaldo was killed by his former allies or enemies, who wanted to take revenge on him or eliminate him as a threat. Some have also suggested that Reinaldo was killed by the US authorities or agents, who wanted to get rid of him or use him as a bargaining chip. Some have also questioned the authenticity of the video, and wondered if it was staged or manipulated.
What are the consequences of his death?
The consequences of Reinaldo’s death are uncertain. His death could affect the dynamics and balance of power among the Mexican cartels, as it could create a vacuum or a conflict within Los Zetas or among its rivals. His death could also have legal and political implications for both Mexico and the US, as it could raise questions about their security and cooperation. His death could also have social and cultural impacts, as it could generate more attention and curiosity about his life and his crimes.
