The murder of a Mexican border state prison guard by suspected Gulf Cartel gunmen at her home appears to be revenge for three homicides inside a detention facility.
Prior to the killing, cops arrested four other prison guards in connection with the murders.
The guard’s murder took place Sunday in Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas. Two gunmen barged into the home of 50-year-old Magdalena Balboa and shot her several times in front of her family. No arrests have been made. Days before the murder, the Gulf Cartel sent messages on social media warning about payback for the recent murders of three top commanders inside the state prison in Ciudad Victoria.
Last week, authorities in Tamaulipas confirmed the murder of former Matamoros plaza boss Oscar Antonio “La Droga” Lopez Sandoval, regional boss in Jimenez, prison boss Jose Luis “Pepillo” Sanchez Guevara, and former state policeman-turned-cartel member Evaristo Eduardo Nunez Caballero. Initial information revealed by state authorities suggested no foul play.
