El traidor. El diario secreto del hijo del Mayo / The Traitor. The secret diary of Mayo’s son

Anabel Hernandez

El traidor es uno de los trabajos periodisticos mas ambiciosos en la trayectoria de Anabel Hernandez.

Su historia se remonta a enero de 2011, cuando la contacto uno de los abogados de Vicente Zambada Niebla, mejor conocido como Vicentillo, quien enfrentaba un juicio en una corte de Chicago. La intencion era compartir con la periodista documentos y hechos que ampliaban y esclarecian varios de los episodios que acababa de dar a conocer en Los senores del narco.

Entre los documentos a los que tuvo acceso se encuentran el inquietante autorretrato como payaso que aparece en la portada y los diarios realizados por Vicentillo durante las negociaciones para colaborar con el gobierno norteamericano, los cuales hasta ahora eran secretos. En ellos el capo reconstruyo su historia y la historia de una de las organizaciones de trafico de estupefacientes mas grandes del planeta.

A lo largo de estas paginas, la autora se adentra en el Cartel de Sinaloa a traves del relato de Vicentillo, quien exhibe de manera descarnada como funciona el sistema interno que da vida a la organizacion criminal, la violencia, las mil formas de traficar droga y la complicidad entre politicos, empresarios y fuerzas del orden.

Pero sobre todo devela el perfil de quien durante el ultimo medio siglo ha sido el rey del narcotrafico. Quien nunca ha pisado la carcel y quien desde su trono ha visto caer a amigos, enemigos, socios, competidores, familiares, empleados del gobierno y hasta sus propios hijos, sin que eso haga mella en su poder, el padre de Vicentillo: Ismael el Mayo Zambada.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Traitor is one of the most ambitious journalistic works of Anabel Hernandez’s career.

Her story dates back to January of 2011, when she’s contacted by one of Vicente Zambada Niebla’s lawyers, better known as Vicentillo, who was facing charges in a court in Chicago. The intention was to share with the reporter documents and facts that would broaden and clear up various episodes that had just come to light in Los senores del narco.

Among the documents to which she had access is the disturbing self-portrait as a clown that appears on the cover and the diaries kept by Vicentillo during his negotiations to collaborate with the North American government, which until now were secret. In them, el capo reconstructed his story and the story of the one of the largest drug-trafficking organizations on the planet.

In these pages, the author goes inside the Sinaloa Cartel through Vicentillo’s account, who grimly exhibits the internal workings that give life to the criminal organization, the violence, the thousands of way to traffic drugs, and the complicity among politicians, businessmen, and security forces. But, above all, he unveils the profile of the person who, during the last half century, has been the king of drug trafficking.

Someone who has never stepped inside a prison cell, who from his thrown has seen his friends, enemies, partners, competitors, family members, government employees, and even his own children fall, without this ever making a dent in his power, the father of Vicentillo: Ismael el Mayo Zambada.
