Pablo Acosta Villarreal From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Pablo Acosta Villarreal Born Santa Elena, Chihuahua, Mexico. Died April 1987 Santa Elena, Chihuahua, Mexico. Cause of death Shootout with Mexican Federal Police. Other names El Zorro de Ojinaga. Occupation Drug lord. Employer Juárez Cartel. Known for Drug trafficker. Title Lider. Successor Aguilar Guajardo and Amado Carrillo Fuentes. Partner Amado Carrillo Fuentes Pablo Acosta Villarreal was a Mexican narcotics smuggler who controlled crime along a two-hundred mile stretch of U.S.-Mexico border. At the height of his power, he was smuggling 60 tons of cocaine per year for the Colombians —in addition to the incalculable amounts of marijuana and heroin that were the mainstay of his business. He was the mentor and business partner of Amado Carrillo Fuentes, the so-called 'Lord of the Skies', who took over after Acosta's death.[1][2]

He made his operation base in the once little dusty border town of Ojinaga, Chihuahua, Mexico, and had his greatest power in the period around 1984-1986. Through a protection scheme with Mexican federal and state police agencies and with the Mexican army, Acosta was able to ensure the security for five tons of cocaine being flown by turboprop aircraft every month from Colombia to Ojinaga —sometimes landing at the municipal airport, sometimes at dirt airstrips on ranches upriver from Ojinaga.[3]

Chains of luxuirious restaurants and hotels laundered his drug money. While at first he only managed marijuana and heroin, Acosta Villarreal became increasingly involved in the cocaine trade near the end of his life. He established contacts with Colombians who wanted to smuggle cocaine into the United States using the same rutes to Texas Acosta Villarreal was using to ship marijuana and heroin from across the border in Chihuahua.[2]

Acosta Villarreal was killed in April 1987 during a cross-border raid by Mexican Federal Police helicopters in the Rio Grande village of Santa Elena, Chihuahua.[4] Aguilar Guajardo took Acosta's place but he was killed soon after; Amado Carrillo Fuentes inherited the organisation. The book Drug Lord by investigative journalist Terrance Poppa, chronicles the rise and fall of Acosta Villarreal through direct interviews he did with this drug lord.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Elgatonegro. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Elgatonegro~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:41, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
