El Origen: Cómo los Arellano Félix Tomaron el Control de Tijuana

How was the cartel that changed the history of the border born? In this original and unprecedented investigation, Tijuana Through Time delves into historical archives to reveal the true origins of the Arellano Félix Cartel. It all began in 1985, not through a master plan, but through a police accident that changed everything. Based on the emblematic September 1985 article in the Zeta Weekly titled "The Mafia Invades Baja California," the analysis examines the exact moment when the names of Eduardo and Benjamín Arellano Félix first appeared in Mexican public history. In this video, you will discover: The fortuitous discovery that exposed the brothers before they became global figures. The dangerous connections with the government of Xicoténcatl Leyva Mortera. The role of the State Judicial Police in the consolidation of this empire. How a news article predicted the future of violence that would mark Tijuana. Join me as we reconstruct Tijuana in the 1980s, a city in transformation where power and the law intersected in dark ways. 📌 Don't forget to subscribe and turn on notifications for more chronicles of our region's hidden history. #Tijuana #TijuanaHistory #ArellanoFelix #ZetaTijuana #TijuanaThroughTime #BajaCalifornia #XicotencatlLeyva The music used in the intro of this video is called Rhythmic Pulse and belongs to Daniel Birch // Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. -For more information and to download the artist's music, visit https://www.danielbirchmusic.com/ ►Follow me on my social media◄ ► Facebook ◄:   / tijuanaeneltiempo   ****You can send me photos, documents, videos, or write me your story or suggestion via message on the Facebook page: Tijuana en el Tiempo**** ► Don't forget to subscribe for more videos related to Tijuana ◄ |Copyright Disclaimer| Title 17, US Code (Sections 107-118 of the copyright law, Act 1976): All media in this video is used for the purpose of review and commentary under the terms of fair use.
