HoneyBee Posted October 26, 2020 Report Share Posted October 26, 2020 Yes I read about it. I hope they come back as I use to check them at least once a week to get a gauge on the level of cartel violence and government corruption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafterbr Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Maybe it was suggested they shut down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, since some won't bother to read: "The decision was made as in the best interest of BB. BB has come under attack in an unbelievable scenario, not a hack, but a person, a famous capo, each of you would know his name and his story. He has filed a lawsuit with the federal court of the United States naming Borderland Beat as the defendant. This is the first time in history that a capo of any magnitude, former or current, has sued a blog, or for that matter any news site. It truly is mindboggling."

Bisbee Gal Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Here's a John Doe v. Borderland (and many others) in Federal Court, alleging they published unredacted drivers license. It was filed Sept. 30th. https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3326&context=historical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 He may have a case.... BUT it seems overly hypocritical that a man of El Chapo's character and history would/could sue anyone for anything. I guess one doesn't loose his rights just because he led the world's largest crime organization, killing scores and flooding the US with drugs. Go figure.

AngusMactavish Posted October 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 Correction: This story has been changed to reflect that “John Doe” is in fact Armando Cornelio Valencia and not Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman. Both individuals had valid California driver’s licenses. https://www.breitbart.com/border/2020/10/27/el-chapo-sues-media-outlets-for-publishing-his-california-drivers-license/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyPanda Posted October 27, 2020 Report Share Posted October 27, 2020 I'll be interested to know if the courts think this is a worthy suit, or a waste of the courts' time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
