THE ROOT OF ORGANIZED CRIME
For Marco Rascon (*)
The crime is not organized by himself, was already organized. Its structure comes from the police and security forces of the Mexican state. That is why war is bloody and extends to all levels of government and society.
Over the past 30 years, under the cloak of corruption, impunity, the application discretionary policy and justice, police turned to each and every public safety agency in a criminal in office. A will or not, every Mexican police, every ministry official, to survive as such, has to violate the law and abide by the codes of the special privileges granted by the power . Segregating
police in society and use under a philosophy of political and social repression led to corruption. The political class for decades, and clearly after 1968 and 1971, corruption found in the vein of gold and stocked up on it. We used the law, rules, regulations, for extortion and it was structural.
In the basement and separate from the Secret Service, the Federal Security Directorate (DFS) of the White Brigade, Research Directorate for the Prevention of Crime (DIPD) Radio Battalion State Patrol Mexico (Barapem) of the judicial police and rural states, the secretariats of public safety, procurement, Government, ministries, directions in prisons, were born and Research Center for National Security (CISEN), the Federal Investigation (AFI), the Specialized Unit against Organized Crime (UEDO) and SIEDO later, prosecutors FEADS and specialized as the Federal Preventive Police (PFP) to reach the structure of the Mexican Army used as police.
The last 30 years the PRI regime incubated the egg of the snake and the participants in the dirty war, systematically using torture, abduction and disappearance, trained and prepared hundreds of police on crime and enriched. The way of charging for their services regime is impunity, which transforms them into partners and protectors of drug dealers, robbers and car hijackers. From Arturo Durazo, to Daniel Arizmendi, The Mochaorejas, hundreds of police are part of both sides. Over time, the police, they realize that the repression of dissidents, labor activists, students, urban or communist movements, gives stability to the regime, but it is not business.
Thanks to the impunity and lack of subversion made to suppress, the machinery is oiled with the kidnapping and extortion of small and large firms. The insecurity created by gangs of police and former police officers, was business.
already for 1990, the kidnapping industry polluted the entire federal judiciary from what, in states and municipalities. Buying patrols, weapons, communications equipment were gains of their own terror, prosecutors, attorneys and governors work as part of organized crime. The reforms of the 90's just gave more power and impunity of the corrupt cops and without control. The legalization of wiretapping, permission to prospect and so-called protected witness, shortly, were instrumental in the dispute over the return of the crime. The new police hunted the above, the spiral of vengeance was infinite and that in this war there is no front, rear and confidence: in that war, the police are not an army against another, but a struggle between themselves and their creatures adult.
kidnappings When approached the circles of power and pressure were influential victims, there were more than 2 000 bands of kidnappers in the country connected to or arising from the police. A first reaction was to clean on the remote military and marine and police chiefs. Soon, all were contaminated.
The arrival of the rotation and dislocation caused by state police impunity paid in the growth of crime. To complement, since the middle of the 90 United States stopped paying in dollars and began to pay with drugs, and Mexico went of being a transit country to one consumer. Came the great business of drug dealing and the shops in the neighborhoods, bars, schools, reaching all sectors of society. The new business, encouraged by the budget war, gangs and territories.
The refusal from the old PRI regime to wean the judiciary and the separation during the war grew PAN inside and outside the police, paramilitary and creating mass executions. Today no strategy to use force against the phenomenon reveals the decomposition of the Mexican state at all levels and institutions. Hence the public perception is also dangerous to the security forces and criminals, they have the same root.
