3 wanted in Chapala Massacre

I'm slow putting these things together...It appears that, yesterday, these 3 were arrested first and then the other 4 were picked up in Tala..here's a google translation & just to point out that there's going to be a march tomorrow, Sunday, at 8 p.m. demanding more protection but it doesn't say where. I take it that because there have been 7 arrests in this, this may be the reason Chapala police are saying things are under control & wants us to feel safe again. I'm not sure I'm liking posting this stuff anymore...just check the websites and google translate by copy and pasting the info. Hope this does help people feel better & safer knowing they have done something about this.

POLICE • 12 MAYO 2012 - 3:42 AM - RICARDO FRANCO
The state attorney general, Thomas Coronado Olmos, were informed that the arrest warrants drawn for the crime of kidnapping.

Guadalajara • Armando Rafael Figueroa, aka The Cali Juan Carlos Antonio Mercado, nicknamed the Monino, and Abel Sanchez Rosales, the R25, were identified by authorities as the alleged perpetrators of the kidnapping of twelve people who escaped from a farm in Tala, also be related to the discovery of 18 bodies in two abandoned vehicles on the road to Chapala, on May 9.

While Chato, also known as The Monino, has a criminal record by damage to municipal property, while the R25 o Jabalino not reported what kind of crimes committed.

The latter is the brother of Laura Rosales Sanchez, nicknamed The Midget, who is under arrest, having been reported in the unlawful deprivation of the twelve men who were rescued on May 8th.

According to the statement of this woman, the marked cell form a Zetas, who had orders up to 50 people to be killed and their remains scattered on May 10 at various points in the metropolitan area as a revenge for the murder of 23 people in Tamaulipas, which occurred on 4 May.

Coronado Olmos said the Attorney General of the State of Jalisco works closely with other corporations for the arrest of three men who have already turned them arrest warrants on charges of kidnapping, even though the prosecutor said that the release of twelve raised has not been officially linked to the discovery of the bodies, so that capture was not called murder.

Release of the 18 deceased had innocent, the prosecutor failed to give details because the authorities claimed that "all are victims."

chronology

May 8
► Twelve people escape from a farm in Tala where they were deprived of their liberty, in this, Laura Rosales Sanchez is arrested by the authorities. That same day, members of the Secretariat of Public Security reported the finding of an area narcolaboratorio

May 9

May 11
► The prosecutor disclosed the names of the three alleged perpetrators of the plagiarism of twelve people, plus the SSP reports the arrest of four men associated with the same facts

So it was the Zetas.

Were these 3 actually arrested, or is there just a warrant out for their arrest?

Like I wrote, I'm slow at putting these things together, often make mistakes but went ahead and made the initiation as no one else had posted anything about it. Yesterday, both twitter & the the news covered this but I was having difficulty understanding what it meant. Well darn, it does make sense as to why they posted pictures of them rather than having a picture of a line up. :-/

Perhaps a mod could change the topic title to read: 3 wanted in Chapala Massacre

well, they arrested Juan Carlos Antonio Mercado, nicknamed the Monino, "el chato"
today.

I put 3 news sources on a new thread about it.
