Mexican cartel boss is tortured to death then dumped in truck a month after he 'ordered horrific massacre that saw 15 innocent people hunted down and murdered'

2021-07-30

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]

Edgar Valladares, a high-ranking leader within the Gulf Cartel, and his bodyguard, Juan Miguel Lizardi, were found dead Tuesday in Reynosa, Mexico

Valladares and Lizardi were beaten and shot dead, and abandoned inside a pickup truck on a highway

Valladares oversaw the Gulf Cartel's Escorpiones cell and instructed gunmen to attack neighborhoods in the city of Reynosa on June 19

At least 15 bystanders were shot dead by gunmen aboard vehicles; police killed four cartel members and so far have arrested 13

Escorpiones member Jonathan Balderas, who was wounded in a shootout with police, confessed to investigators that Valladares had plotted the deadly assault
