Remember the old Wanted posters from the Old West? Here is a Wanted Poster offering a reward for the Dalton Brothers.
In our day and age, Wanted Posters are still used. For Mexican narcos, for example.
On April 15th he U.S. government offered rewards for information leading to the capture of the Hurtado Olascoaga Brothers.
These guys are the bosses of the La Nueva Familia Michoacana (LNFM) cartel, based in the State of Mexico, Michoacan and Guerrero.
On February 20th, the U.S. State Department designated the LNFM cartel as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) and Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT).
According to the State Department, “The DEA estimates the LNFM is responsible for the transportation, importation, and distribution of over 36 metric tons of methamphetamine, 12 metric tons of Mexican heroin, and 12 metric tons of cocaine per year from Mexico into the United States.”
Here are the wanted posters for the two brothers:
Note that there’s a 3 million dollar reward “for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of” Brother Jose Alfredo (“Strawberry”) and a 5 million dollar reward “for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction” of Brother Johnny (“Fish”).
There are also posters available in Spanish.
