In a press conference, accompanied by his mother and Mayor Salvador Bastida, he denied having a criminal record in Mexico or having committed a major crime in the United States. He also maintained that he has evidence of his integrity and warned that he will sue those who have accused him of crimes he did not commit.
“How I arrived, smiling, that’s how I’m going to leave, smiling,”
Raudel Campos Murillo, former treasurer of the municipality of Tacámbaro, state of Michoacán.
Campos Murillo showed a letter of no criminal record from the Mexican authorities and a document from the US authorities that, he stated, they gave him yesterday and proves that he did not commit crimes against women.
“Here it never says any major crime (…). “Nothing to do with women, nothing to do with gangs, nothing to do with drugs, nothing to do with weapons,” he launched.
Afterwards, he thanked the mayor of Tacámbaro for his support and denied that his resignation was in response to Governor Bedolla’s demand. He explained that he is leaving his position so as not to affect the councilor’s work and to clarify the situation that, he estimated, could be resolved in two or three months and then he will evaluate whether to return to his position.
“I’m leaving with my head held high, to settle my matter, I’m going to retire,” he said, adding that he will not flee from justice, but will remain reachable.
