Baja's Most Wanted Criminal Escapes Custody
2011-08-01
I've seen this movie before. Badanov will likely have more info
MexicoÂ’s Attorney General announced that the alleged lieutenant of the Sinaloa cartel suspected in dozens of murders in Baja California has escaped from a Mexico City hospital where he was being very loosely held.
Almost as if he was allowed to escape?
The announcement said that Héctor Eduardo Guajardo Hernández, 33, known as “el Güicho,” escaped through a hospital window Wednesday apparently with the assistance of two federal agents guarding him.
"C'mon dammit, get through the window!. Jeebus you're heavy!"
Baja California police had captured Guajardo in Mexicali on May 9 in shootout in which he was wounded. He was transferred to a hospital in Mexico City, where he was being held while authorities investigated his alleged participation in the murders of dozens of people, including 10 police officers.
good thing there's loyalty among the Fraternal Order of Policia
A preliminary investigation indicated that two agents from MexicoÂ’s Federal Investigative Agency, who have disappeared and won't be found alive, helped the prisoner escape, the announcement said. Two other federal agents in the room next to GuajardoÂ’s are under investigation

#2  Guajardo Hernandez was apparently an enforcer and an area commander in Baja California at best; he never came up in any news reports I have read about Baja California since I started tracking Mexican drug war news.

Ah, I think I've found the problem. The next time they find him, they should see that it's rectified.
