Mexican Terrorist/Thug Arrested In Mexico

From The El Paso Times: Reputed La Linea drug cartel leader José Antonio Acosta Hernández, also known as El Diego, admitted Sunday to being the mastermind of a 2010 car bombing in downtown Juárez.
Acosta also confessed to several killings, including a massacre of 14 teenagers in the Villas de Salvárcar neighborhood, to Mexican federal authorities.
Mexican federal police presented Acosta, outfitted with a bulletproof vest, before the media Sunday in Mexico City in confirming his arrest.
Acosta, one of the most wanted men in Mexico, was arrested Friday after a shootout with authorities in Chihuahua City. Acosta was indicted this year in the killings of three people connected to the U.S. Consulate in Juárez.
Mexican federal officials said in a statement that after his arrest, Acosta told authorities he was the key player behind preparation and placement of a car bomb with C-4 plastic explosives in downtown Juárez on July 15, 2010.
That attack has been the only one of its type in Juárez. Car bombs have been used by terrorists and guerrilla groups in the Middle East, Northern Ireland, Spain and Colombia.

This thug terrorist was responsible for killing U.S. citizens who worked in Juarez and is responsible ordering the hits of about 1500 people.
Mexican authorities said Acosta also claims he ordered the killings of about 1,500 people, mainly in Juárez and Chihuahua City. Among those killed were local, state and federal police officers, members of rival criminal groups and members of his own organization who had lost his trust.
Acosta told authorities that on Jan. 30, 2010, he gave orders to kill the alleged members of "Los Doble A," a criminal group related to the Sinaloa cartel, who were at a party in the Villas de Salvárcar neighborhood.
That night, a group of gunmen arrived there to shoot the partygoers and sealed off the 1300 block of Villas del Portal. Some victims were identified by Mexican officials as gang members, but most were identified as students and athletes.
That attack created a national outrage and forced Mexican President Felipe Calderón to visit Juárez and launch social programs. Acosta also took responsibility for several "narco mantes" that were recently painted on public walls in Juárez and Chihuahua City, threatening the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and U.S. Consulate employees.
This guy is nothing but a terrorist and a thug and if he had been in the U.S., he would have had the entire U.S. police force after him.
Hopefully, the judicial system in Mexico will give him life in prison with no chance of parole- they don't hae the death penalty. I know the U.S. won't get him because he would be eligible for the death penalty and Mexicans don't hand over criminals to the U.S. in a death penalty case.
So, Mexico is finally getting it's act together and arresting some important people in the drug cartels over the past year or so. Hope to see more thugs/terrorists captured and sent to prison in Mexico.
