Top Drug Dealers Send Letters to Mexican News Outlets in Fentanyl Blame Game

In his letter, which he sent to various news outlets, Damaso Lopez Serrano claimed that Los Chapitos were lying and they in fact were responsible for the production of fentanyl and were the main leaders of their faction within the Sinaloa Cartel. In the letter, Lopez claimed to know Los Chapitos better than most and that their prior actions helped show that they were lying. He claimed that Los Chapitos would often have others take the blame for their actions and most recently had tried to make it seem like a recent fentanyl seizure belonged to Sinaloa Cartel’s current top leader Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada.

Lopez claimed that Los Chapitos leaders are responsible for the murder of famed Mexican journalist Javier Valdez — a crime for which Lopez himself has been named as the main suspect who ordered the hit.
