Although there was also explained that official resources. This was not the only institution that received support from who is identified as one of the founders of what is now known as the Sinaloa cartel.

In Europe he went to France, Switzerland, Spain, London and Italy. US claims to know only the major cities. Where is it best memories Geneva and Colombia.

Although, according to his son, "the writing was not given" Miguel Felix Gallardo has written in his own handwriting some texts where he recalls his life in freedom, and leaves show a little why I fueconsiderado The Boss of Bosses who was sings in the run of Los Tigres del Norte:

From 1985 to spend the Carnival 1987 lived in Mazatlan in Ferrocarrilera colony, my friend Manuel and I wanted the city was quiet and safe society came to ask favors, it was necessary to organize to lower rates of violence, theft, and rounds to a minimum.

One day in 1986, as was my custom, read local newspapers between 8 and 9 am. When you flip a page, I went to the red section and I hit a note in relation to an entire family had been executed at his home when he saw television. Seven members in total, plus a small kitten whose photographic image saddened me even more. All newspapers highlighted the same, it was the most horrible thing I had seen news.

I rose from the cubicle where I soleaba and headed toward the garage where my car was, going through the kitchen my wife told me, "Miguel, you go to breakfast , " I gave the papers keeping only one hand and I replied , pointing to the note in question: "Who can have breakfast this ?, will solve this issue , " and I left the house.

I got to the place that served as my office and called Manuel and police chiefs who came immediately. I gathered and said , "Look at this , " showing the newspaper. "The mazatleca society does not deserve this , " and then told them: "I want those responsible for this slaughter, whoever they are, and I want them alive and in jail within 72 hours. My people will work and I cover all expenses, I do not care how powerful is responsible, I will face the devil himself if necessary. All work, check sanatoriums, medical clinics, healers, there may be some wounded bully and there can begin. "

They were called to collaborate all cholos and gangsters of all colonies, taxis, waiters, hairdressers, musicians, mechanics. I myself check some suspicious places. I finally stopped a wounded wrongdoer near Concordia and he investigated, he confessed to being a member of Black Magic as was his father who sent him to kill his uncle La Magia Blanca, her grandmother and even an electrician who was in that house doing some repairs and also the poor kitten.

The motive for the lawsuit was an inheritance from the father of the murderer and uncle, dad was arrested later in Veracruz, all those responsible were entered, but before the murderer had to answer one of my questions: Why did you kill the kitten? to which he replied, "Because I could be a witness in the hereafter."
