Perhaps it would have been of some use for him to apologize to Mexico for the enormous tragedy he caused and to immediately make himself available to the authorities to be investigated. But Felipe Calderón became arrogant and reacted to the jury’s verdict with a self-congratulatory, insolent and fallacious text: “with the information available, I took due diligence measures in the integration and operation of the government team,” he wrote. The lie is untenable: since May 2007, six months after Calderón assumed a stolen presidency, General Tomás Ángeles Dauahare, then Undersecretary of Defense, warned him of Genaro García Luna’s links to drug trafficking. Shortly after, Javier Herrera Valles, who was Regional Security Coordinator of the Federal Police, asked him to designate “someone he trusted, totally unrelated to the people of engineer Genaro García Luna”, to investigate the missteps of the Former Secretary of Public Safety. Instead of listening to the military and the police, Calderón fabricated crimes for them and sent them to jail. Outside of these notices, from journalism and from the political opposition, public warnings were made about the crooked behavior of the drug trafficker-turned-official or the official-turned-drug trafficker.
