MEXICO Disturbing video has surfaced online, showing the brutal methods used by Mexican drug cartels. The victim was kidnapped by rival cartel members and taken to a remote location. After stripping him naked and tying his hands behind his back, the attackers cut off his ear, forced it into his mouth, and made him chew it. They then subjected him to the same horrific treatment involving his penis.
It remains unclear which cartel was responsible or what the victim may have done to provoke the attack. Nevertheless, the footage serves as a grim reminder of the extreme violence associated with drug cartels and the dark reality behind the drug trade. Stay as far away from these criminal organizations as possible. To them, human life may mean little beyond a person’s usefulness to the group. Even consumers who purchase illegal street drugs can indirectly contribute to the demand that sustains these violent networks.
