Interrogation in Mazatlan

In the clip you’re about to see, five people are shown detained in a dark, rural-looking area—four shirtless men kneeling with their hands behind their backs, and a woman in the middle—appearing restrained and positioned in a line.

The footage shows that they were captured and interrogated by Chapiza, and that the group belonged to Mayito Flaco and the Cabreras.

The following was translated and transcribed by Sol Prendido.

Sicario: Alright you pigs. Which faction do you belong to?

Captive: The Cabreras and Mayito Flaco factions.

Sicario: What were you guys doing in Mazatlán?

Captive: We were sent to draw law enforcement attention to the area to make it hard for Chapo’s mob. Drop bombs, kill innocent civilians, and burn tractor trailers. There’s also a group with us that’s dedicated solely to killing police officers from every corporation.

Captive: Who are those groups?

Captive: The Cabreras, Flechas, Ranas…

Sicario: Who bombed the city’s boardwalk?

Captive: The Cabreras mob.

Sicario: Who?

Captive: The Cabreras mob.

Sicario: What are their monikers?

Captive: Chaparro and Caballo.

Sicario: What’s Chaparro’s name?

Captive: Abelito.

Sicario: What other events have you participated in?

Captive: The hit against the ministerial policeman, the attack at the gym, the assault that took place in the town of Malpica, the fires against the rehabilitation centers, the homicides that took place at the Puntos establishment, the hit at the Santa Fe subdivision…

Sicario: What else?

Captive: Ah, Kiko’s family house was also shot at.

Sicario: Kiko’s, house was shot at? Who did the armed attack?

Captive: Bloque, me, and Ibarra.

Sicario: Kiko, you shat at your own family?

Captive: Yes sir. We didn’t shoot at them directly but we did shoot my family’s house.

Sicario: Everyone knows you as Kiko?

Captive: Yes.

Sicario: I thought you were supposed to be so brave?

Captive: Well, that’s what we did sir.

Sicario: What other acts did you guys participate in?

Captive: I’m not familiar with anything else that’s taken place outside of what we mentioned sir

Sicario: Why didn’t your crew come out to face us for that armed confrontation?

Captive: They’re a bunch of cowards sir.

Sicario: We were left to fend for ourselves. We were essentially abandoned.

Sicario: So, your mob is made up of cowards?

Captive: Yes.

Sicario: Are they scared or what?

Captive: What you see here is the support that they gave us.

Sicario: Who did the farmhouse belong to?

Captive: It belongs to the Chaparro’s mob. They’re a faction of the Cabreras cartel.

Sicario: Is there a message that you’d like to send out to your crew?

Captive: Things aren’t so easy out here. Don’t bother getting involved in this conflict or listen to what Bloque has to say. We were horribly forsaken in all of this.

Captive: I want to ask my father to forgive me and my daughter for not being able to return to her…

Sicario: Marranos, just so you know, the Chapiza mob continues to be in charge out here.
