[…] In his decision, the judge said he was left with several unanswered […] Nuevo Leon: 48 hours, 33 executed (Google translation of page in Spanish) Apparently, this series of murders was a coordinated effort to make a statement responding to military claims that the Zetas had been weakened in the area. It has come to my attention that there’s some kind of gathering going on in Florida. I haven’t bothered paying any attention to it because I assume that nothing of substance will be discussed.
