  • The Sinaloa Cartel's brutality was exemplified in the case of Hugo Hernandez. His dismembered body was found in plastic containers, with his face grotesquely stitched onto a football. 💀⚽
  • El Chapo's interrogation techniques included ripping out teeth and ear electrocution. In one instance, a rival was tortured, revived by a doctor, and then murdered. 🦷🩸
  • The cartel leader personally engaged in torture, once beating two people with a branch until their bodies were "like rag dolls" before throwing them onto a bonfire. 🔥😲
  • Antonio "Jaguar" Marrufo, an associate of El Chapo, had a specially designed torture room in his mansion, complete with soundproofing and a drain for blood disposal. 🩸😬

  • Los Chapitos, El Chapo's sons, reportedly use corkscrews to inflict pain, rubbing hot chili peppers into wounds. Some victims are fed to tigers kept as pets. 🌶🥶
  • The Guadalajara cartel's torture of DEA Agent Enrique Camarena involved 30 hours of brutality, including drilling into his skull while he was kept conscious with amphetamines. ☠💊
  • Los Zetas cartel uses extreme methods like decapitation and forced cannibalism. Their La Gallera ranch served as a site for mass cremations and acid baths to dispose of bodies. 🥩👂
  • Miguel Ángel Treviño Morales of Los Zetas favored "El Guiso" or "The Stew," where victims were boiled alive in 55-gallon drums. 🥵♨
  • The 2011 San Fernando Massacre by Los Zetas involved forcing captives to fight to the death, with survivors recruited as hitmen. 🥊🏴‍☠️
  • Corrupt law enforcement, like Luis Cárdenas Palomino, have adopted cartel methods, using techniques like genital electrocution and waterboarding on suspects. 💀👀
