"CHANDLER, Ariz. — Authorities have determined a man who was stabbed and beheaded in a suburban Phoenix apartment was killed for stealing drugs from a Mexican cartel, in a gruesome example of drug cartel violence spilling over the border."

Unpossible!

Doesn't the BATFE push enough guns over the border so they can kill each other in Mexico without having to come over here?

Man, that's no way to get a head in life.

He should have quit while he was ahead.

True but it's nothing to lose your head over.

I wonder how high in the cartel you have to be to give that kind of go ahead to remove a head.

Who's going to head up the investigation?

He shouldn't have stuck his neck out and messed with the cartel's drugs.

Anyone else get an image of Javier Bardem on the loose?

Take away from this incident: Mess with the cartels and heads will roll.

Probably the Head Detective.

What the *expletive deleted* is wrong with all of you? A man gets brutally murdered by a foreign drug cartel on our soil, his body mutilated and the only response is half a page of tasteless puns.

I guess they lost their heads. But come on. The guy was a suicidally stupid criminal.

I started it. I'm not apologizing. And to answer your question, you don't want to know.

Had it been a reasonably innocent citizen brutally murdered I'm sure the response would have been different.
The "victim" if we can believe the report, suffered from a case of terminal stupidity.
The only thing I'm pissed about is that it happened on US soil.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

I doubt this is the 1st, or even the 1001st time a foreign drug cartel has ordered a killing on US soil. The Mexicans do seem to like beheading people though. You'd think they were French.

What's the difference? Both are great fans of surrender.

You mean you hope he's not an American? I hope so, too. The article didn't say. I'd prefer that cartels be afraid to attack Americans, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

He stole drugs from a drug cartel. I'm pretty sure he wasn't stealing the drugs to keep them off the streets. He deserved what he got imo. With displays of intelligence like that I'm sure he's wasn't at the head of his class.

If the man in question was not himself an associate of a brutal, foreign drug cartel I might feel more sympathy. The only reason he was executed on our soil is that he knew he was on the hot list in Mexico so he bugged out across the border. It's not like the cartel just picked a name at random out of the Phoenix phone book and sent the goons to wipe out the person to whom the name belonged.

Murders of criminals by criminals fit into the "good riddance" category, so the response is going to be quite different than if an innocent were the victim. And beheadings of criminals by criminals is not unique to Mexican cartels and jihadis. (I keep thinking of the Joe Pesci movie "8 Heads in a Duffle Bag.")

Note that one of the linked stories stated that the victim, Martin Alejandro Cota-Monroy, 38, stole 400 pounds of marijuana and meth from a drug cartel while telling the cartel that the drugs had been seized by the Border Patrol, and that Cota-Monroy had been known to traffic drugs for his sister's lover, known as "El Jefe."

I'd say there's a better-than-even chance that Cota-Monroy was Mexican, not American.

Criminal cartels are also businessmen, so they kill those who steal from them in order to keep down their . . . overhead . . . costs.
