CIA Drug Lord Released from U.S. Prison was Never in Prison
Man said to be Osiel Cárdenas Guillén looks quite different from man arrested in Mexico
One of Mexico’s most notorious criminals, Osiel Cárdenas Guillén, was released early from federal prison Friday, having served only 14 years of a 25-year sentence.
Mexican drug kingpin Osiel Cardenas Guillen, former leader of the notorious Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas criminal gang, was released Friday, August 30, from a U.S. prison and handed over to the immigration department, officials said.
Cardenas Guillen, now 57, was captured by Mexican authorities in Tamaulipas in 2003 and extradited four years later to the U.S., where he pleaded guilty to drug trafficking, money laundering and extortion in exchange for a 25-year sentence.
Although he shouldn’t have been released until 2032, Cárdenas only served 14 years.
Cárdenas was the founder of the Gulf Cartel, an organization which provided the CIA with a steady supply of drugs into the United States, as well as feeding the far more lucrative trade in women and children for sex slavery, adrenchrome and human sacrifice rituals.
Cárdenas was arrested in Mexico in 2003, but President Vicente Fox—a Satanist—handed over the CIA’s boy in January 2007 instead of prosecuting him.
Or did he?
In the U.S., the sentence for one murder is generally 25 years
The cartel leader was offered 25 years by prosecutors in Houston, Texas, at a time when the city, state and country were controlled by the Bush crime family.
Throughout the years he spent in prison, he managed to reduce his sentence and have some charges dropped. He had three for extortion, attempted murder of an U.S. agent, one charge for drug trafficking, money laundering, and 12 were dropped in 2010, maintaining the 25 years he would be imprisoned in addition to the confiscation of tens of millions of dollars (which went right back to the U.S government’s criminal activities).
It was not clear why he did not serve his full sentence. - L.A. Times
Los Angeles Times (AP):
Cárdenas Guillén was sentenced to 25 years in prison in 2010 and ordered to forfeit tens of millions of dollars. It was not clear why he did not serve his full sentence, but he had been extradited to the U.S. in January 2007.
The 57-year-old native of the border city of Matamoros, Mexico, moved tons of cocaine and made millions of dollars through the Gulf cartel, based in the border cities of Reynosa and Matamoros.
He created the Zetas, a gang of former Mexican special forces soldiers whom he recruited to become his private army and hit squad. They committed acts of terror that regularly involved slaughtering dozens of people, decapitating them or dumping heaps of hacked-up bodies on roadways.
The Zetas lived on long after Cárdenas Guillén was captured in 2003. By 2010, the Zetas had formed their own cartel, spreading terror-style attacks across Mexico as far south as Tabasco until their top leaders were killed or arrested in 2012 and 2013.
Leo Silva, a former member of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) who worked in Mexico fighting the Zetas, said Cardenas was directly responsible for the increase in gruesome violence on Mexican soil over the past two decades.
The Zetas were pioneers among organized crime in moving from mere drug trafficking to extortion of citizens and businesses. They also spread terror through kidnapping. "This was something that Osiel created and that created a new era of organized crime," said Silva, who worked for the DEA in Mexico from 2008 to 2015.
Cárdenas was booked into federal prison under the WRONG NAME. His first name is Osiel, but the Bureau of Prisons spelled it as ‘Oziel.’
Here is a photo taken on December 15, 2023, with a caption claiming it came from the brother of the other man in the photo. It says, “My brother with his friend osiel cardenas.”
No current photos of Osiel Cárdenas were taken upon his release to ICE. However it seems the U.S. government repeated its Nazi trick of replacing criminals with body doubles when they’re captured. It was a body double who was shot while Hitler escaped to Argentina. Hitler’s deputy fuhrer, Rudolph Hess, was also saved from hanging in 1946, when Allen Dulles sent Ewen Cameron to Neuremberg to do a psychological evaluation on him. Hess was replaced with a body double and smuggled to freedom—either to Argentina or the U.S.
These photos of Cárdenas are from his extradition on 20 January 2007, and were published by the Houston Chronicle in 2016.
For comparison, look at these older photos of Cárdenas.
Not only does he look like he’s mind-controlled, he has a circular scar on his forehead which seems to form an X between his eyebrows.
Now here’s the man they claimed was sent by Mexico to the U.S.
The man photographed in 2007 has no scar on his forehead, his nose is less bulbous, his lower lip is thinner, and he lacks the ridge over his eyebrows of the man in earlier photos. His hair is light brown and fine—almost blonde—not black and wiry. The man in the first photo has a triangular crease over the bridge of the nose, while the crease of the second is almost straight across. Even with a few days of growth, the beard of the second man is lighter than the “five-o’-clock shadow” on the clean-shaven man in the earlier photos.
You can tell by the eyes.
They need more cash for their domestic terror activities
