Así Vive El 85 en la Cárcel: De Fundar el CJNG con El Mencho a Declararse Culpable | Erick Valencia

He helped found the CJNG alongside El Mencho. Together they laid the foundation of the empire. But only one reaped the glory. The other was betrayed by his own partner and erased from history. Érick Valencia Salazar, "El 85," is the forgotten co-founder of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, and almost no one knows he ever existed. While El Mencho became the most wanted drug lord on the planet, this man remained in the shadows: betrayed, imprisoned, erased from the history he himself helped write. In this documentary, we examine the complete story: the bloody origins of the CJNG, the betrayal that left him in his partner's shadow, the war he unleashed to exact revenge, his recapture, and his extradition to the United States. And the final twist that even he never imagined: the founder whom history erased ended up outliving the founder whom history glorified. Here's what you'll discover: 🏗️ The co-founder no one remembers: how he built the CJNG alongside El Mencho, as equals, in the cartel's early days. 🔪 The partner's betrayal: why he accuses El Mencho of turning him in to keep the empire for himself. 💀 The "Matazetas" origins: the bloody mark that gave birth to the world's most violent cartel. 🔥 The revenge: how he escaped, broke with El Mencho, and founded his own rival cartel to wage war against him. ⛓️ The final downfall: how he was recaptured and extradited to the United States, where he pleaded guilty. 🗝️ The witness who could sink the CJNG: why what a founder knows could be devastating for the cartel. ⚖️ The terrorist designation: how the new US policy against the CJNG sealed its fate and accelerated its surrender. 😮 The final twist: why the betrayed and forgotten founder ended up outliving the one who took everything. In the drug trade, there is no loyalty, not even among founders. El 85 and El Mencho started together, as partners. And they ended up as mortal enemies: one dead, the other imprisoned. The empire they built still stands, but the two men who created it ended up, each in their own way, crushed by it. That is the story no one tells about the CJNG. #CriminalFiles #El85 #CJNG #ElMencho #ErickValencia #JaliscoNewGenerationCartel #SpanishTrueCrime #ChroniclesOfEvil #LifeInPrison #FallOfThePowerful #Narco #Betrayal #RealCases #NarcoDocumentary El 85, Erick Valencia Salazar, co-founder of the CJNG, El Matazetas, betrayal by El Mencho, Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nueva Plaza Cartel, extradition to the United States, pleaded guilty, this is how he lives in prison, Spanish true crime, Mexican criminal cases
