STOP THE PRESSES AND RELEASE THE TACO! THE HUNT OF THE CENTURY IN MEXICO CITY IS OVER! THE BEAST THAT KILLED US NIGHTS AT NIGHT HAS FINALLY FALLEN! GRAPHIC, UNCENSORED IMAGES OF HOW THE MONSTER THAT TERRORIZED THE CITY WAS SUSPENDED!
[RED ALERT NEWSROOM / MEXICO CITY]
Hey everyone, Mexico City folks and all over the country! Hold on to whatever you can and sit down if you’re standing because the news we’re bringing you today is hotter than a forgotten iron! If just a few minutes ago your cell phone vibrated in your pocket, if you were on Facebook or in your family’s WhatsApp group and saw that blurry image circulating, that cropped headline that said in panicked letters: “BREAKING NEWS: The suspect has been captured… See more ,” and you felt your blood pressure drop and your blood sugar rise from sheer fright… Get ready!
Because we’re not afraid of the truth, and YES, we clicked that damn “See More” button that left you all scared out of your wits. We went deep into the heart of the information, infiltrated our sources in the Prosecutor’s Office, and here we bring you the unvarnished truth, the raw and unfiltered account of what just happened on the streets of our concrete jungle.
It wasn’t a rumor! It wasn’t one of those “fake news” stories they invent to steal your data! It’s the pure, bloody truth! The reign of impunity is over!
The Attorney General’s Office, after months of groping in the dark, of failed operations that only served to waste gasoline and of having us all with fear on our necks, finally made a breakthrough.
The subject who appears in the photos that are already beginning to circulate uncensored, the one with his face smeared against the dirty pavement of a seedy alley, with the handcuffs tightly fastened and squealing like a pig on its way to the slaughter, is none other than the capital’s public enemy number one: THE FEARSOME AND BLOODTHIRSTY “JACKAL OF IZTAPALAPA”!
THE END OF AN ERA OF TERROR: REMEMBERING THE NIGHTMARE
Let’s remember, my fellow citizens, even if it makes our stomachs churn. For the last eight months, this spawn of evil turned the eastern part of the city into its private hunting ground. We couldn’t even go out for bread in peace. Mothers wouldn’t let their daughters go to the corner store. Fear didn’t travel by donkey; it rode by minibus, on the subway, in the dark streets.
Do you remember the bodies found in the Xochimilco canals with those strange markings? Do you remember the disappearances at the Pantitlán bus stops that the authorities tried to downplay by saying they “ran off with their boyfriends”? Pure nonsense! Everything pointed to a single man, a serial predator who operated with a chilling coldness. A guy who not only killed, but also enjoyed leaving macabre messages to taunt the cops.
The “Jackal” had become an urban legend, a ghost that came and went from the roughest neighborhoods unseen. It was said he had a pact with the devil himself, that he used witchcraft to make himself invisible. But today it was proven that no amount of witchcraft can stand against a good tip-off and the fury of a fed-up people!
THIS IS HOW THE OPERATION UNFOLDED: GUNSHOTS, SHOUTS, AND A MOVIE-LIKE ENDING
How did the beast fall? Here comes the real meat of the gossip!
Our exclusive sources, those “deep throats” who risk their lives on the front lines, confirm that the capture wasn’t thanks to the world-class police intelligence they boast about in their morning press conferences. Not a chance! It was thanks to betrayal and greed.
It turns out that “The Jackal,” feeling untouchable, let his guard down. He was hiding in one of those labyrinthine tenements in the heart of the Tepito neighborhood, protected by some local thugs to whom he was paying off money.
But hunger is a powerful motivator, folks. The cynical fellow emerged from his lair in broad daylight to grab some crispy tripe tacos from a street vendor. That was his mistake! A “hawk” (an informant) who was lurking nearby, hoping to collect the hefty reward offered for his head, recognized him by a very distinctive tattoo on his neck that peeked out from under his sweatshirt.
The informant tipped off the authorities. But this time, knowing that “The Jackal” had bribed several police officers in the area, an elite group of Navy personnel and undercover agents from the Attorney General’s Office, who were not on the drug lord’s payroll, were assembled.
They surrounded the area in a matter of minutes. It was a surgical operation, but in that rough neighborhood, things always get heated. When “El Chacal” realized they were closing in, he tried to escape. He pulled out a “tartamuda” (an automatic pistol) and started firing wildly, not caring about the people at the market.
All hell broke loose! Shouts, people running, contraband stalls flying through the air. The marines repelled the attack. It was an intense firefight that lasted only a few minutes, but they seemed like an eternity.
The “Jackal” tried to use a woman selling quesadillas as a human shield, the coward! But a Navy sniper, with the steady hand of a surgeon, shot him in the leg, doubling him over.
That’s where his bravery ended. The monster fell to the ground, dropped his weapon, and began begging for his life, shouting that he surrendered, that they shouldn’t kill him. How quickly their macho act crumbles when they feel the cold steel!
WHAT COMES NEXT: WE WANT JUSTICE, NOT THIS BULLSHIT!
The images that are circulating, which you will see in full by clicking on our exclusive links, show the exact moment when they put him in the “dog kennel” (the armored patrol car), bleeding from his paw and with a face that said “it wasn’t me”.
The news spread quickly, and people from the neighborhood began to gather. They wanted to lynch him right there. They wanted to deliver the justice that the authorities had so often denied them. They had to whisk him away at top speed, escorted by a convoy that looked like a war zone, straight to the Attorney General’s bunker.
Right now, the “Jackal of Iztapalapa” is giving his first statement. It’s said they’re already searching his safe house and that what they’re finding inside is worthy of a house of horrors. Evidence of his crimes, strange altars, things we can’t describe here out of respect for the time of day.
Guys, this isn’t over yet! The arrest is just the first step. Now comes the hard part: making sure the judges aren’t bribed, that they don’t come up with “due process violations,” and that they don’t use the infamous “revolving door” to release him in two months.
MEXICO DEMANDS JUSTICE! WE WANT HIM TO ROT IN JAIL! We don’t want empty promises. The victims’ families deserve peace.
Stay tuned to our social media. Don’t put your phone down. We’ll be broadcasting live from outside the Public Prosecutor’s Office, with minute-by-minute updates on this story that has stained our city with blood. Things are about to get serious! If you know anything else, report it! Let’s not let this go unpunished!
