CJNG accused former member of commanding attack in Zinapécuaro and criticized Familia Michoacana: “Ball of currents”

Members of the Elite Group of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) attacked their rivals, La Familia Michoacana, through a video broadcast on social networks, in which they were called “bola de corrientes” for their alleged participation in the Zinapécuaro massacre, Michoacán, which occurred last Sunday, 27 of March.

The video showed several subjects armed with rifles and wearing tactical clothing, one of the alleged hit men, who did not identify himself, accused a former CJNG member of having orchestrated the attack in which 20 people were killed.

“Good afternoon to all the population of Zinapécuaro, Michoacán, we are Jalisco New Generation Cartel and we are respectful as always. This statement is to let you know that the Jalisco Cartel dissociates itself from the events that occurred on Sunday 27 in the palenque de gallos and we hold the sacras ball of Lalo Manteca, Daniel Correa and the pu**flipped del Lobo, who bit the hand of the one who fed it and is supported by the Michoacán Family,” said the armed subject.

He also assured that those responsible for the attack were already located by hit men from the Elite Group, who challenged them to a direct confrontation, because they reproved the massacre in which they claimed that innocent civilians were killed.

“All that ball of pen***s are already located, that's what they are, some currents. And the population will not let us lie, that of arriving shooting innocent people does not belong to men, gentlemen, let alone the school of the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel. Go out and play to see if you have a lot of egg**. And you, Lalo Mantecas, set the place and time to see if you have a lot of egg**, because there are. Sincerely the Jalisco New Generation Cartel Elite Group”, was heard in the video.

One of those mentioned in the video, Daniel Correa, is the leader and founder of the criminal organization known as Los Correa, which was named as responsible for the massacre by the Secretary of Government of Michoacán, Carlos Torres Piña, who claimed that the hit men of the criminal group tried to execute William Rivera, El Barbas, alleged leader of the CJNG in Zinapécuaro.

The Correas reportedly signed an alliance with Los Viagras, a criminal group made up of former members of the Michoacán Family, which is present in Tierra Caliente and is an enemy of the CJNG; therefore, both criminal groups carried out an armed incursion into the entity to seize control of the territory from Barbas, since have quarrels with the cartel originating in Jalisco.

On February 17, 2021, the cartel de las cuatro letras released a video showing how he cut the throat of an operator of the Corre a cartel, while warning the war against him. Up to ten subjects appeared on the scene, masked with long guns and tactical equipment in the middle of the night. One of them held the machete steady while another claimed that the Correas abandoned “their people”, and then began to cut off the head of their victim.

Last year, the forces of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, el Mencho, published another clip where an alleged hit man from the Correa Cartel asked them to take care of his family. Set back in a tree, also in a night scene, this guy would have been executed. Images of the lifeless body were no longer shown.

In this way, members of Los Correa, the CJNG and the Michoacán Family published videos of executions and attacks against members of rival criminal gangs, who are currently contesting territories in several municipalities in Michoacán, which has even had repercussions against municipal leaders.
