One reason for the high mortality rates associated with fentanyl use is its extremely high efficacy and narrow therapeutic index ( LD50 ? ED50 = 277, as opposed to 25,211 for sufentanil ). [18] Fentanyl can be fatal in an adult of normal weight as little as 2 mg. [19] [20] Fentanyl is increasingly used to cut heroin . If the fentanyl is not properly distributed through the heroin, fatal fentanyl hotspots occur. [21] Fentanyl, which is cut or sold directly on the black market, comes partly from legal pharmaceutical and partly from illegal production. [22]
By altering residues in the fentanyl molecule, a range of different designer drugs are synthesized, such as methylfentanyl and benzylfentanyl.

Cartel leader kidnapped to US 'had meeting with politicians'
August 10, 2024 A statement by the recently kidnapped leader of the Sinaloa cartel Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada García (76) to the United States once again shows a disturbing intertwining between the underworld and the upper world in Mexico. On the day of his kidnapping on July 25, “El Mayo” says he had an appointment with the governor of the state of Sinaloa and, among others, the former rector of the University of Sinaloa. By @Wim van de Pol The statement was provided to the Los Angeles Times by an attorney for Zambada . Until now, it was known that El Mayo was involuntarily put on a plane after having an appointment with the son Joaquín of the former leader of the Sinaloa cartel Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán Loera. Together they then flew to Texas where they were arrested. It also leaked that this Joaquín Guzmán had had contacts with the FBI. University management El Mayo now describes his version of events in his statement. He says Joaquín Guzmán López had asked him to come to a meeting in the Sinaloa capital, Culiacán. The two top criminals of the Sinaloa cartel were supposed to help mediate a dispute over who would lead the state’s university. The governor of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha Moya (pictured right), and a former university rector, Héctor Melesio Cuén (pictured left), a renowned academic and politician from Sinaloa, from the regional party PAS, were supposed to be present. El Mayo says that upon entering, he greeted Héctor Cuén and one of his assistants. That was the last time he saw him alive. Cuén was murdered later that night. Dark room El Mayo also writes that the ranch just outside the city where the meeting was to take place was teeming with men in green uniforms, who he said were security for Joaquín Guzmán. El Mayo: I saw Joaquin Guzmán López, whom I have known since he was a child. He gestured for me to follow him. I trusted that the meeting I had planned would really take place and I followed him without hesitation. They led me to a room where it was dark. El Mayo says he was overpowered in that room, handcuffed and taken with Guzmán to a plane flying to a small airport in Texas in the United States. It is believed that Guzmán surrendered voluntarily with the intention of making a deal with US law enforcement after several years of contact with the FBI. Gasoline pump El Mayo Zambada says he arrived at the ranch with four of his bodyguards. It has since become clear that two of them have disappeared without a trace. He says that Héctor Cuén must also have been murdered there that night. The official story is that Cuén was shot dead the following night by unknown persons on a motorcycle at a gas station. "That's not what happened," said El Mayo, who called Cuén "a friend" in his statement. The local Public Prosecutor's Office investigation has not yet yielded any results. "I think it's important that the truth comes out. This is what happened, not the false stories that are circulating," Zambada said. https://www.crimesite.nl/naar-vs-ontvoerd-kartel-kopstuk-had-afspraak-met-politici/

Well this is interesting.
El Chapo's son charged with kidnapping rival boss Zambada AMDuemila August 23, 2024 The governments of Mexico and the United States deny having planned the operation that ended with the arrest of "El Mayo" Mexico's attorney general's office announced it will seek the arrest of a son of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán , accused of allegedly kidnapping drug trafficker Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada , 76, founder of the Sinaloa cartel along with "Chapo" Guzmán, who is serving a life sentence in the United States, to hand him over to the United States. The agency also said it had identified the runway from which the private plane that Joaquín Guzmán López , one of the so-called " chapitos ," and Zambada took off on July 25 for New Mexico, United States, where they were captured by federal agents. "The request for an arrest warrant for kidnapping and also for the illegal deprivation of liberty of a person in the national territory to hand him over to the authorities of another country is already prepared," the attorney general's office said, without providing details on the location of the runway.
The governments of Mexico and the United States deny having planned the operation that ended with the arrest of "El Mayo". The announcements of the Mexican Attorney's Office give credence to Zambada's version, spread through his lawyer, according to which he was kidnapped and handed over by Guzmán Lòpez during a meeting to which he had invited him to mediate in a conflict between the governor of Sinaloa Rubén Rocha and the elected representative Héctor Cuén . Rocha, co-supporter of Mexican President Lòpez Obrador , denies any complicity with the drug kingpins and assures that on the day of the events he was in Los Angeles, United States. According to "El Mayo", for which Washington offered 15 million dollars, the representative Cuén was killed at the meeting place, near the city of Culiacán, capital of Sinaloa. The Attorney General's Office also said it had located "the property where the probable crimes of illegal deprivation of liberty, murder, injuries and acts related to forced disappearance". Likewise, he again denied the version of the Sinaloa Prosecutor's Office according to which Cuén was murdered at a gas station in Culiacán during an alleged robbery attempt. In the letter in which he reported his kidnapping, Zambada claimed to have gone to the site with four bodyguards, including an alleged missing Sinaloa police chief. Governor Rocha confirmed on Monday that ten people were killed last weekend in connection with the capture of "El Mayo", after which 600 soldiers were deployed to strengthen security in Culiacán, in addition to the 400 sent days earlier.

El Chapo's son freed in exchange for El Mayo's kidnapping? August 31, 2024 The mystery surrounding the violent kidnapping to the United States of Sinaloa drug lord Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada García (76) is growing. Because the Mexican Public Prosecutor’s Office has made a statement on Friday linking the release in the United States of a son (photo) of the life-sentenced “El Chapo” Guzmán and the kidnapping by plane of El Mayo to the US. Was the action the result of a deal between the Americans and the “Chapitos”, the sons of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán? Lifetime El Chapo was sentenced to life in prison in the United States a few years ago. His sons took over some of the activities of the Sinaloa drug cartel. “El Mayo” Zambada was Sinaloa's second man after El Chapo, and had been a fugitive for many years. Within the Sinaloa cartel, there was growing tension between the “Chapitos”, the sons of El Chapo, and the clan around El Mayo. El Paso In mid-July there was the sensational news that El Mayo had been arrested at an airport near El Paso in the United States. Joaquín Guzmán Lopéz (38), one of El Chapo's sons, was also arrested by the Americans on that plane. Then it came out, through a statement from “El Mayo” through his lawyer in the United States, that he had been kidnapped by force by Joaquín Guzmán Lopéz and put in handcuffs on the plane to El Paso. Earlier it had leaked out that Joaquín Guzmán had maintained contacts with the FBI for years. This led to the suggestion that Joaquín Guzmán had struck a deal with the US authorities through the transfer of El Mayo. A few days before El Mayo's arrival in the US, brother Ovidio Guzmán was released from pre-trial detention in the United States. Joaquin Guzman Lopez Proof And now the Mexican Attorney General's Office has announced that it has evidence that the release of Ovidio Guzmán López in the United States is "related" to the arrest of Ismael "Mayo" Zambada. What kind of evidence that would be has not been disclosed. Mexico's Attorney General's Office says it is unaware of Ovidio Guzmán's current whereabouts or status in the United States, where he was extradited in 2023 on charges of drug trafficking and money laundering. Disagreement Mexican media write that there would be great disagreement between the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, and the United States, among other things about the kidnapping of El Mayo. That would have happened with the knowledge of the United States, while the Mexican government knew nothing about it. https://www.crimesite.nl/zoon-el-chapo-vrij-in-ruil-voor-ontvoering-el-mayo/

As feared full warfare.
Mexico, Sinaloa Cartel Internal Feud: 15 Dead AMDuemila September 14, 2024 A total of 14 open investigation files and 15 deaths. This is the latest toll of the violent war that began on Monday between the Chapitos and the Mayos, the two factions into which the Sinaloa cartel has split and headed, respectively, by " Chapo " Guzmán and " Mayo " Zambada , both detained in the United States. The Attorney General, Claudia Zulema Sánchez, confirmed this to local media . " From Monday to today, 15 murders have been registered ," she declared. Last September 9, the governor of Sinaloa, Rocha Moya, was forced to suspend classes in all schools and universities in the capital, Culiacán, and had requested military reinforcements from Mexico City to guarantee the safety of citizens. Today, two bodies were recovered, one of them decapitated and with signs of torture on various parts of the body, near Park 87, a popular green area in Culiacán with attractions including slides, swimming pools and a 'peace garden.'
