Emma Y Las Otras Se Oras Del Narco

Este libro forma parte del largo recorrido periodístico de Anabel Hernández dentro del complejo mundo del crimen organizado en México, así como de su incesante búsqueda por entender los diversos componentes de los cárteles de la droga, los cuales tienen sumida a la nación desde hace décadas en una espiral de violencia en la que todos los días son explotadas, desaparecidas o asesinadas decenas de personas inocentes, muchas de ellas del sexo femenino. Desdesu bestseller Los señores del narco (2010), éste es quizás el acercamiento más íntimo a la cúpula del narcotráfico, un detrás de cámaras de lo que ocurre en el multimillonario negocio criminal. En Emma y las otras señoras del narco la autora recorre el velo y muestra las pulsiones más profundas que hacen a los narcos buscar poder y dinero a toda costa. La autora de El traidor (2019), multigalardonada y reconocida internacionalmente como experta en temas de narcotráfico, una vez más gira la mesa del tablero y ofrece al lector un análisis casi antropológico de los capos de la droga y su entorno más cercano desde una nueva óptica: el mundo de sus mujeres. En estas páginas desfilan personajes como Emma Coronel y otras esposas de importantes narcotraficantes, una ex Miss Universo, y algunas de lasactrices, cantantes y conductoras de televisión más reconocidas y aplaudidas en México, tanto del pasado como de la época actual. Madres, esposas y amantes. Mujeres que se amoldan a las reglas machistas de sus amos y bailan ante ellos -en privado, fiestas u orgías- la danza de los siete velos, y lo hacen sobre los cadáveres de los miles que han sido víctimasde los mismos hombres a quienes deleitan con su cómplice presencia a cambio de dinero, joyas y propiedades. Con el rigor investigativo que la caracteriza, Anabel Hernández, a través de entrevistas realizadas a testigos de los hechos, lleva al lector a las reuniones familiares, fiestas y alcobas de diversos narcotraficantes donde ocurren las historias de amor, compra y venta de placer, incesto, ambición, traición y venganza. Un mundo hasta ahora desconocido.

The product of five years’ investigative reporting, the subject of intense national controversy, and the source of death threats that forced the National Human Rights Commission to assign two full-time bodyguards to its author, Anabel Hernández, Narcoland has been a publishing and political sensation in Mexico. The definitive history of the drug cartels, Narcoland takes readers to the front lines of the “war on drugs,” which has so far cost more than 60,000 lives in just six years. Hernández explains in riveting detail how Mexico became a base for the mega-cartels of Latin America and one of the most violent places on the planet. At every turn, Hernández names names – not just the narcos, but also the politicians, functionaries, judges and entrepreneurs who have collaborated with them. In doing so, she reveals the mind-boggling depth of corruption in Mexico’s government and business elite. Hernández became a journalist after her father was kidnapped and killed and the police refused to investigate without a bribe. She gained national prominence in 2001 with her exposure of excess and misconduct at the presidential palace, and previous books have focused on criminality at the summit of power, under presidents Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderón. In awarding Hernández the 2012 Golden Pen of Freedom, the World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers noted, “Mexico has become one of the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists, with violence and impunity remaining major challenges in terms of press freedom. In making this award, we recognize the strong stance Ms. Hernández has taken, at great personal risk, against drug cartels.”

«Mi historia se entrelaza con la de una multitud de personajes bastante complejos y pertenecientes a todos los ámbitos, cuento con mucha información que le servirá para completar sus investigaciones. Temo por mi vida. No sé cuál sea mi destino, mi vida está en manos de Dios, pero debo descargar toda la información que he acumulado antes de que algo me pase.» Celeste V. Tras publicar Emma y las otras señoras del narco y convocar a romper el pacto de impunidad dentro de los cárteles de la droga, Anabel Hernández recibió un inquietante mensaje. Mujeres y hombres respondieron al llamado, revelando los secretos delmundo en el que han vivido. Es así como Celeste, quien durante más de una década fue pareja sentimental de Arturo Beltrán Leyva , se convierte en la guía de un viaje en el infierno donde ella vivió y conoció a los jefes de la droga más temidos de los últimos tiempos. Por medio de un testimonio descarnado y sin censura, el lector sube a una montaña rusa y hace un recorrido con pendientes pronunciadas, giros inesperados y cruces mortales por el inframundo del narcotráfico. En diversas partes del trayecto, junto con los jefes de la droga, aparecen funcionarios públicos, empresarios y políticos en reuniones, llamadas telefónicas y grabaciones. En otros tramos, se ve caminar con tacones altos a decenas de mujeres cuya presencia motiva y perpetúa la maquinaria criminal. Celeste no solo abunda en detalles sobre las famosas Ninel Conde y Galilea Montijo y su vínculo con Arturo BeltránLeyva, sino que revela la interacción de otras famosas como Mariana Ríos, Dorismar, Betty Monroe, Karla Luna, Karla Panini, Patricia Navidad o la socialité Violeta Vizcarra, una de las encargadas de enganchar a las famosas para llevarlas ante el líder de los Beltrán Leyva. En el último tramo, la autora explora infiernos paralelos al de Celeste, incluyendo el propio. Asiste al juicio contra Genaro García Luna en Nueva York, donde se encuentra con su esposa Linda Cristina Pereyra. Y, finalmente, se adentra en los núcleos familiares de los Chapitos, cuyo momento criminal está en auge. «El infiernoen el que ellas "aman" es el mismo que nos consume como sociedad y nación. Es a través de las señoras del narco y su interacción con los jefes de la droga que puede derribarse la barrera y no solo conocer los perfiles criminales, sino la psique de quienes comandan.»

The definitive account of the disappearance of forty-three Mexican students On September 26, 2014, a party of students from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College were en route to a protest when intercepted by local police. A confrontation ensued. Come the morning, the students were nowhere to be found. The crime that had transpired and the resultant cover-up brought the profound depths of corruption in the Mexican government and police force—as well as the vulnerability of ordinary Mexicans—into stark relief. Investigative reporter Anabel Hernández reconstructs the terrible events of that night and its aftermath, giving us the most complete picture available. Her sources are unparalleled. In researching this book, she secured access to internal government documents that have not been made public and to surveillance footage the government has tried to hide and destroy. Hernández demolishes the Mexican state’s official version of events, which the Peña Nieto government cynically dubbed the “historic truth.” As her research shows, state officials at all levels, from police and prosecutors to the upper echelons of government, conspired to put together a fake case, concealing and manipulating evidence, and arresting and torturing dozens of “suspects,” procuring forced confessions to back up the official lie. By following the role of the various Mexican state agencies through the events in such remarkable detail, A Massacre in Mexico shows with exacting precision precisely who is responsible for this monumental crime and who needs to be held accountable.

I fear for my life. I don''t know what my destiny holds, my life is in God''s hands, but I must handover all the information I have accumulated before something happens to me." -CELESTE V. After publishing Emma and Other Narco Women and calling to break all impunity pacts within the drug cartels, Anabel Hernández received a disturbing message. Men and women responded to the call, revealing many secrets of the world in which they have lived. This is how Celeste, who was Arturo Beltrán Leyva''s partner for over a decade, becomes the guide on a journey through the hell where she lived and where met the most feared drug lords of recent times. With her raw, candid, and uncensored testimony, the reader takes a roller coaster ride through the underground world of drug trafficking. In various parts of the journey, alongside the drug bosses, we see many public officials, businessmen, and politicians engaging either in meetings, phone calls, or recordings. In other sections, we see dozens of women in high heels whose presence motivates and perpetuates the criminal machinery. Celeste not only goes into details about celebrities like Ninel Conde and Galilea Montijo and their relationship with Arturo Beltrán Leyva, but also reveals interactions by other celebrities such as Mariana Ríos, Dorismar, Betty Monroe, Karla Luna, Karla Panini, Patricia Navidad and socialite Violeta Vizcarra, who was tasked with enticing the famous women to take them to the leader of the Beltrán Leyva group. In the last section, the author explores other infernos parallel to Celeste''s, including her own. She attends the trial against Genaro García Luna in New York, where she meets his wife, Linda Cristina Pereyra. And, lastly, she delves into the family nuclei of El Chapo Guzman''s four sons, whose criminal dealings are on the rise. «The hell in which they live, and "love" is the same one that consumes us as a society and nation. It is through the women of Narcoland and their interaction with the drug bosses that we are able to break down those barriers and not only get to know the criminal profiles, but the psyche of those who oversee it all.

With contributions from seven of Mexico's finest journalists, this is reportage at its bravest and most necessary - it has the power to change the world's view of their country, and by the force of its truth, to start to heal the country's many sorrows. Supported the Arts Council Grant's for the Arts Programme and by PEN Promotes Veering between carnival and apocalypse, Mexico has in the last ten years become the epicentre of the international drug trade. The so-called "war on drugs" has been a brutal and chaotic failure (more than 160,000 lives have been lost). The drug cartels and the forces of law and order are often in collusion, corruption is everywhere. Life is cheap and inconvenient people - the poor, the unlucky, the honest or the inquisitive - can be "disappeared" leaving not a trace behind (in September 2015, more than 26,798 were officially registered as "not located"). Yet people in all walks of life have refused to give up. Diego Enrique Osorno and Juan Villoro tell stories of teenage prostitution and Mexico's street children. Anabel Hernández and Emiliano Ruiz Parra give chilling accounts of the "disappearance" of forty-three students and the murder of a self-educated land lawyer. Sergio González Rodríguez and Marcela Turati dissect the impact of the violence on the victims and those left behind, while Lydia Cacho contributes a journal of what it is like to live every day of your life under threat of death. Reading these accounts we begin to understand the true nature of the meltdown of democracy, obscured by lurid headlines, and the sheer physical and intellectual courage needed to oppose it.

A New York Times Notable Book An NPR Best Book of the Year For readers of Behind the Beautiful Forevers and Nothing to Envy, this is a breathtaking real-life story of four street children in contemporary Zambia whose lives are drawn together and forever altered by the mysterious murder of a fellow street child. Based on years of investigative reporting and unprecedented fieldwork, Walking the Bowl immerses readers in the daily lives of four unforgettable characters: Lusabilo, a determined waste picker; Kapula, a burned-out brothel worker; Moonga, a former rock crusher turned beggar; and Timo, an ambitious gang leader. These children navigate the violent and poverty-stricken underworld of Lusaka, one of Africa’s fastest growing cities. When the dead body of a ten-year-old boy is discovered under a heap of garbage in Lusaka’s largest landfill, a murder investigation quickly heats up due to the influence of the victim’s mother and her far-reaching political connections. The children’s lives become more closely intertwined as each child engages in a desperate bid for survival against forces they could never have imagined. Gripping and fast-paced, the book exposes the perilous aspects of street life through the eyes of the children who survive, endure and dream there, and what emerges is an ultimately hopeful story about human kindness and how one small good deed, passed on to others, can make a difference in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.

An astonishing, revelatory, and redemptive memoir from two women who escaped the international drug trade, with never-before-revealed details about El Chapo, the Sinaloa Cartel, and the dangerous world of illicit drugs. Olivia and Mia Flores are married to the highest level drug traffickers ever to become US informants. Their husbands worked with--and then brought down--El Chapo, as well as dozens of high-level members of the Mexican cartels. They had everything money could buy: luxury cars, huge houses, and expensive jewelry--but they chose to give it all up when they cooperated with the US government. They knew that life was about more than wealth; it was about love, family, and doing what's right. CARTEL WIVES is a love story, a "Married to the Mob" story, an insider's look into the terrifying but high-flying empire of the new world of drugs, and, finally, the story of a major DEA and FBI operation.
