In this special Episode, my 100th, I reflect back on to the Camarena case and look forward to efforts to clear the record of false narratives and blatant misrepresentations about the case. Specifically, in this Episode, I discuss some of the reasons why the Camarena case is highly personal to me. I also reflect on the need to resolve some unanswered issues surrounding the case in order to honor the legacy of Agent Camarena and to respect the legacy of those who worked with Agent Camarena, those who searched for him, and those who sought to bring his killers to justice. I then consider the false narratives around the case, including those presented by the government in the prosecution of Ruben Zuno Arce and others. Finally, I reflect on the false and malicious claims made by Agent Berrellez and his so-called witnesses in The Last Narc and elsewhere.

The guys get together to discuss topics such as the deadly and devasting wildfires of Maui Hawaii, the Long Beach California woman that went viral after racial rant aimed at a tamale street vendor and Amazon's docuseries 'The Last Narc' witch explores   the 1985 kidnapping and murder of DEA Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena and much more on this highly entertaining episode that you do not want to miss and make sure to tune in!

We continue our examination of the transcripts from the Zuno I and Zuno II trials by considering the testimonies of traffickers Enrique Plascencia Aguilar and Frank Retamoza. Plascencia's testimony includes details about the events at La Longosta that may be seen as inconsistent with the accepted narrative.  In addition, his testimony regarding a December 1984 meeting is also inconsistent not only with other witnesses at both trials, but also directly at odds with allegations and claims in The Last Narc. In the case of Frank Retamoza, the government gave him broad immunity and paid him and his family more than $900,000, despite his admission to multiple acts in aid of the traffickers, including taking $150 million from the U.S. to Felix Gallardo in Mexico.  Curiously, the government made this arrangement despite the fact the Retamoza offered no direct testimony against either defendant on trial in Zuno II.  

Dr. Alvarez Machain was a Guadalajara doctor who often provided medical services to drug traffickers, including Rafael Caro Quintero.  Following the murder of Agent Camarena, a warrant was issued for his arrest and, in April 1990, Dr. Machain was "abducted" from Guadalajara, flown to El Paso, arrested, and charged with crimes connected to Agent Camarena's murder.  Following Dr. Machain's arrest, his voluntary post-arrest interview and his trial as a defendant in Zuno II present a nuanced case study and call into question Dr. Machain's portrayals in dramatic programs and the statements made about Dr. Machain in "The Last Narc." 

Sheriff David Hathaway is a fifth-generation rancher from the U.S.-Mexico border in Santa Cruz County, Arizona. He's also a former supervisory agent for the Drug Enforcement Administration, and he participated in the DEA's largest-ever homicide investigation, Operación Leyenda, to track down the killers of DEA agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena in the 1980s. Hathaway's participation in Camarena's murder investigation, and his discovery that the CIA was not only smuggling drugs but also involved in Camarena's death in Mexico, led Hathaway to conclude that America's war on drugs is a failure, which spurs government corruption on both sides of the border as illustrated (yet again) in the current trial of former Mexican anti-drug official Genaro Garcia Luna in New York. Hathaway speaks frankly about U.S. drug policy, the investigation into Camarena's death (which is now featured in a four-part documentary called The Last Narc on Amazon), and the restorative justice programs* that Santa Cruz County has spearheaded to reduce drug demand in its communities. *Constructing Circles of Peace, Hope Incorporated, Wellness Connections, and Mariposa Community Health Center.

In a recent telephone conversation, Agent Berrellez made several assertions and asked me to look at them with an open mind, to which I agreed.  In this episode, we analyze those assertions seeking factual support and consistency.  In the end, our review leaves us questioning many of the contentions aired in "The Last Narc" and doubting the veracity of the witnesses relied upon by the prosecution, Agent Berrellez, and the filmmakers.  

In this week's episode, we explore the key traits of pseudointellectualism and note the representation of these traits in "The Last Narc" and the allegations made by Agent Berrellez. We also explore the depth and breadth of the Iran Contra investigations and reports, specifically focusing on the investigations into the connections between the Contras and drug trafficking.  We highlight the testimony provided by people close to the Camarena case and the allegations of CIA involvement, and we search, to no avail, for any evidence of CIA involvement in Agent Camarena's abduction or interrogation.

Many of the witnesses presented at the Camarena-related criminal trials were brought to the U.S. by Antonio Garate Bustamonte, a former Mexican police officer and indicted drug trafficker.  Each of the three witnesses relied upon in The Last Narc were also "suppled" by Garate.  Unbelievably, though, Hector Berrellez admits that the DEA didn't trust Garate and that he was not credible enough to testify at any of the criminal trials.  Garate's lack of credibility irreversibly infected not only the criminal trials but also the allegations from Berrellez and The Last Narc.  

In the most significant episode so far, we examine how the many social media statement made by Hector Berrellez and others, many of which contains factual errors, inconsistencies, or flaws of logic, are shared widely without challenge.  Most importantly, we discuss how those statements could negatively impact any potential prosecution of Caro-Quintero for crimes relating to Agent Camarena.  

This episode continues our reexamination of The Last Narc, identifying additional internal inconsistencies and inaccuracies that further erode the credibility of the Agent Berrellez, the so-called witnesses, and the docuseries itself.  

Hosted by acclaimed filmmaker Tiller Russell (Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer, Operation Odessa, The Last Narc, The Seven-Five), THE DANGEROUS ART OF THE DOCUMENTARY is a new series that reveals the wild stories behind some of the world's most successful and iconic documentaries. Exchanging his camera for a microphone, Russell sits down with a who's-who of documentary filmmakers for riveting, in-depth conversations surrounding the intricate process of producing an engrossing documentary. In season one—debuting August 11, 2022—listeners can hear from documentarians including Allen Hughes (The Defiant Ones), James Gay-Rees (Amy, Senna), Maclain and Chapman Way (Wild Wild Country, Untold), Jaimie D'Cruz (Exit Through the Gift Shop), Joe Berlinger (Conversations with a Serial Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes), Mark Lewis (Don't F**k With Cats) and Emmett Malloy (Biggie: I Got A Story To Tell). New episodes appear Thursdays, wherever you get your podcasts.

The Amazon Prime docuseries The Last Narc, directed by Tiller Russell and starring retired DEA agent Hector Berrellez, makes a number of significant, if incredible, claims and assertions regarding the Camarena case.  A thorough review of the program, however, reveals startling inconsistencies and factual errors in the series itself that call into question the veracity of those claims and allegations and require a skeptical, if not dubious, view of the filmmakers and distributors themselves.  

Ruben Zuno-Arce was a central figure in two criminal trials in the U.S., a key subject of several episodes of Narcos: Mexico, and is vilified in The Last Narc.   This episode takes a look at who Mr. Zuno was, his history and background, and analyzes the two criminal trials and the witnesses against Mr. Zuno.  This episode leads into next week's second part which will detail why Mr. Zuno's case is significant and what it can tell us about the government's investigations and prosecutions.

Jaime Kuykendall.  Agent Camarena's superior and friend.  The man who likely knows more of the background facts of the Camarena case than any other person.  A man whose reputation has been questioned.   This episode is Part 1 of our interview with Agent Kuykendall, and we jump right into a discussion of The Last Narc, the DEA's Guadalajara office, and the investigations of Guadalajara's major traffickers.  

A primary allegation in The Last Narc is that the CIA was directly involved in the abduction, interrogation and murder of Agent Camarena.  This episode exposes the lack of credible, verifiable, contemporaneous evidence to support that allegation and questions that basic logic and foundation underlying that claim and related assertions.  

The allegations and assertions in The Last Narc are almost entirely based on statements from three former law enforcement officers from Mexico, each with questionable histories --Jorge Godoy, Rene Lopez Romero, and Ramon Lira.  This episode looks at each of these men, their testimonies and allegations, and the circumstances surrounding those allegations, from which their motives and veracity can be evaluated.

This episode critically examines the Amazon Prime series The Last Narc, the book of the same name, and other public comments by Hector Berrellez and presents a Top 10 list of the things that are wrong, misleading, or simply implausible.  

This episode discusses the new creative non-fiction, true crime novel, Someone Had to Die.  We discuss the background of the author, the nature of the book, the major themes and issues discussed, and set the stage for next week's critical analysis of The Last Narc and the primary allegations in that program made by former DEA Agent Hector Berrellez.

"The Last Narc" (El Último Narco), el testimonio de Héctor Berrellez ex agente de la DEA, que llevo a cabo toda la investigación sobre el asesinato de su compañero, Kiki Camarena en 1985. Y para finalizar, al fin llegó la segunda temporada de The Boys y aquí te decimos por que tienes que verla.

On this episode we talk about carne asada marinades/prep, sides and what drinks we pair the cook with. Also a bit of the show The Last Narc. Audio quality is a bit rough on this one so please bear with us and/or buys us some MICs. Ha!

El fin de semana pasado vi los cuatro capítulos de la serie documental de Amazon, “The Last Narc” (el último agente). Héctor Berréllez narra los principales aspectos de su investigación del asesinato del agente de la DEA en México Enrique “Kiki” Camarena. Esto ocurrió hace 35 años. Pero la miniserie no cuenta toda la dimensión de la crisis bilateral. La recuerdo muy bien porque esos fueron los años en los que yo estaba estudiando la maestría en políticas públicas en la Universidad de Harvard. Ahí investigué, analicé y escribí sobre la formulación de la política antinarcóticos de Estados Unidos y su impacto en México.

Mike The Intern, Joe Westen, and Jay Stevens talks about the documentary The Last Narc!

Two guests, no waiting this week, as ...These Are Their Stories co-host Kevin Flynn joins me to talk about Ann Rule's Sleeping With Danger, starring Elisabeth "Serena Southerlyn" Röhm and Leslie "ME Rodgers" Hendrix. It's a thumbs-sideways from both of us on the movie, which is not quite good, but not all that bad, and has some anachronism issues and PSA pacing that undercut surprisingly decent acting. Grab a Smoothie Of Doom to fortify yourself for... ...the second Most Wanted topic, Amazon's The Last Narc, a series Jessica Liese and I meant to talk about months ago, before Amazon yanked it unceremoniously. The case of what really happened to murdered DEA agent Kiki Camarena premiered last week, with nearly as little fanfare, and while we're still not clear on why it got disappeared, it's a compelling and confidently shot four-parter featuring clear explainers and flavorful anecdotes. But that doesn't mean we wouldn't have changed anything...or that we weren't happy to hear Robert Stack in a voice-over. Brace yourself for more government malfeasance: it's The Blotter Presents, Episode 153.

After our plans to cover Amazon docuseries The Last Narc got disappeared along with the show, Jessica Liese and I pivoted back to familiar ground: Fake Heiress, a late-2019 pod on everyone's favorite art-foundationing NYC scammer, Anna Delvey/Sorokin. The podcast isn't good, and across-the-pond class issues read weirdly to us North Americans...but is it a fast and fun enough listen for us to recommend? Or are you better off rereading the contemporary coverage? We went even further back in time for our second Cold Case of the episode: the third-season Unsolved Mysteries segment on the disappearance of Nyleen Marshall. We're pretty sure we know what really happened to little Nyleen, but the things we as a culture didn't understand about confessions, eyewitnesses, and the determination of amateur detectives 30 years ago led to an interesting discussion...and a proposal for a reboot we might actually need.
