Alleged cartel boss found guilty of conspiracy leading to 300 deaths
Source: The Guardian
His lawyer described Marciano Millan Vasquez as nothing more than a humble goat rancher. A jury disagreed on Tuesday, concluding that he was a regional boss for the Zetas drug cartel involved in a murderous conspiracy that lead to the deaths of more than 300 people in northern Mexico.
After a brief deliberation, the jury found Millan Vasquez guilty of all ten charges he faced.
The two-week trial took place in federal court in San Antonio, the city where Millan Vasquez was arrested last year. He now faces life in prison.
The counts included possession of firearms in connection with drug trafficking and distribution of cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana, killing while engaged in international drug trafficking, employing minors in drug operations and providing false identification to US authorities.

This is just some nutty conspiracy theory like all the others. Everyone knows there is no such thing as a conspiracy of any kind, anywhere. 
((Unreal. Glad this one is down. Another million stand in line to take his place, though...it's a long fight. Still, celebrate where we can, neh? A win is a win.
