Banners purportedly from the Sinaloa cartel have appeared in northern Mexico claiming the gang has sworn off the sale and production of fentanyl
purportedly signed by a faction of Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel claiming that the gang has sworn off the sale and production of the synthetic opioid fentanyl.
The machine-printed banners purportedly signed by the sons of imprisoned drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman claim they have prohibited the sale or production of fentanyl in the northern state of Sinaloa. The sons are known as “the Chapitos” after their famous father. “I think the Chapitos started feeling the pressure when they increased the reward for their capture. I think they are trying to create a massive illusion to take the pressure off," he said. “It’s almost like a big campaign to convince the U.S. they’re not involved. It’s nothing more than pure propaganda,” Vigil said.
Vigil maintained it was untrue that the cartel would stop producing fentanyl because, “that is their big money maker.” He also said that the rest of the Sinaloa Cartel “would never go along with” any move to stop the lucrative production.and heroin, Vigil said. Giving up fentanyl — which could strengthen the rival Jalisco gang — “is going to give Jalisco the keys to basically overshadow them in terms of money.
The Chapitos became known for grotesque violence that appeared to surpass any notions of restraint shown by earlier generations of cartel leaders.
