No seconds for this stew

The Mexican police have caught a dude who describes himself as a "stewmaker" for one of Mexico's brutal drug lords.
Santiago Meza Lopez was arrested Thursday in Ensenada, Baja California, but it took police 24 hours to identify him. He says he works for drug lord Teodoro Garcia Simental, also known as "el Teo," a powerful drug trafficker.

Meza, who is shown handcuffed and flanked by guards in video released by the government, calls himself "Teo's stewmaker" and says he was paid $600 a week for his macabre duties. The victims, he said, were men who owed Garcia something or had betrayed him.
Just another part of the vicious drug wars going on in Mexico these days. No wonder the Marines put Tijuana off-limits.
