The Güerito 90 Betrayal: How Three Traitors Undid a Warlord and Played Both Sides

A Pact Sealed with a Slap

It wasn’t bullets or bribery that betrayed Mayo Zambada. It was something colder. A slap to the face—then his escorts dropped, one by one. “Maybe you’re next,” came the warning. The man delivering it? El Ahijado. The man standing by? Güerito 90. It wasn’t a defection. It was a hand-delivered betrayal masked as loyalty—while they still wore Chapiza colors.

Three Greedy Pigs and One Knife in the Back

Luis Gerardo Flores Madrid, known as Güerito 90, didn’t start this war—but he’s trying to cash in on it. Alongside him:

Saúl Páez López, El Ahijado, now better known as El Traidor.

And Ricardo Páez López, known on the street as Chicha.

Three greedy pigs who didn’t just betray a faction—they sold out everything that made them relevant. Trusted with routes, names, and people, they didn’t just pass information to Mayito Flaco’s side. They delivered names. Delivered people. Delivered networks. They even tried—but failed—to hand over Iván Archivaldo Guzmán.

Among the handovers:

• José Ángel, alias El Güerito
• Jandito
• Multiple Chapiza commanders still loyal to Iván Archivaldo

In exchange, they carved out a false alliance with Ismael Zambada Sicairos, alias Mayito Flaco—a pact born from greed, wrapped in betrayal, and sold as “unity.” They told themselves it was strategy. That weakening La Empresa from the inside would buy them power. What they didn’t count on was the body count—and whose names would be next.

The Bombing in Vascogil

Before the betrayal, they were still working under the Chapiza flag—and they acted like it. One of the more serious allegations against the trio is that, acting on a tip from Gabino, Güerito 90’s father-in-law, they believed Alejandro Cabrera—a known ally of Mayito Flaco—was hiding out in Vascogil, Durango.

No hesitation. A small plane was sent. Bombs dropped.

The target wasn’t confirmed. The attack shook civilians and rattled the region. But it made one thing clear: even before they flipped, these men weren’t cautious—they were reckless. And when they changed sides, they brought that same aggression with them.

Beneath the Surface

Let’s break down what happens next—because betrayals this loud don’t go unanswered. These three didn’t just burn one bridge. They torched every exit on their way out.

Güerito 90

He’s already marked—by Chapiza loyalists, and possibly even by Mayiza insiders who don’t trust how quickly he flipped. He has few places left to hide, and even fewer people willing to protect him. His only currency now is staying useful, and that clock is ticking.

Prediction: Dead in the next 12 months, or vanished under someone else’s name.

El Ahijado

The loudest, most reckless, and most visible of the trio. Slapping Mayo wasn’t just betrayal—it was theatre. And narcos don’t forget spectacle. Even Mayiza, who might use him now, won’t keep him around forever.

Prediction: Public execution—on video, by the same machine he tried to serve.

Chicha

Quiet. Calculated. The least exposed. Which makes him the only one with a shot at long-term survival—if he disappears soon. But guilt by blood runs deep, and he’s tied to too much.

Prediction: Hunted slowly, possibly flipped to law enforcement. But eventually caught in the fallout.

And Mayito Flaco? He may be using them now, but he’ll never truly trust them.

Because how can you really trust anyone who flips sides?

The War Within the War

Everyone’s watching the convoys. The uniforms. The shootouts. But the most dangerous moves don’t come with gunfire—they come in silence.

A list handed over. A location whispered. A plane sent.

Güerito 90, El Ahijado, and Chicha didn’t just betray the Chapiza. They betrayed the idea that loyalty meant anything.

And now they live in borrowed time, speaking borrowed words, on a side that will never trust them.

The war didn’t change them.

It just revealed what they were all along.
