Cover-Up: Mexico Admits Troops Killed U.S. Man

Cover Up: Mexico Admits Troops Killed U.S. Man

AP

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Joseph Proctor told his girlfriend he was popping out to the convenience store in the quiet Mexican beach town where the couple had just moved, intending to start a new life.

The next morning, the 32-year-old New York native was dead inside his crashed van on a road outside Acapulco. He had multiple bullet wounds. An AR-15 rifle lay in his hands.

His distraught girlfriend, Liliana Gil Vargas, was summoned to police headquarters, where she was told Proctor had died in a gunbattle with an army patrol. They claimed Proctor — whose green van had a for-sale sign and his cell phone number spray-painted on the windows — had attacked the troops. They showed her the gun.

His mother, Donna Proctor, devastated and incredulous, has been fighting through Mexico’s secretive military justice system ever since to learn what really happened on the night of Aug. 22.

It took weeks of pressuring U.S. diplomats and congressmen for help, but she finally got an answer, which she shared with The Associated Press.

Three soldiers have been charged with killing her son. Two have been charged with planting the assault rifle in his hands and claiming falsely that he fired first, according to a Mexican Defense Department document sent to her through the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City.

It is at least the third case this year in which soldiers, locked in a brutal battle with drug cartels, have been accused of killing innocent civilians and faking evidence in cover-ups.

Such scandals are driving calls for civilian investigators to take over cases that are almost exclusively handled by military prosecutors and judges who rarely convict one of their own.

“I hate the fact that he died alone and in pain an in such an unjust way,” Donna Proctor, a Queens court bailiff, said in a telephone interview with the AP. “I want him to be remembered as a hardworking person. He would never pick up a gun and shoot someone.”

President Felipe Calderon has proposed a bill that would require civilian investigations in all torture, disappearance and rape cases against the military. But other abuses, including homicides committed by on-duty soldiers, would mostly remain under military jurisdiction. That would include the Proctor case and two others this year in which soldiers were accused of even more elaborate cover-ups.

The first involved two university students killed in March during a gunbattle between soldiers and cartel suspects that spilled into their campus in the northern city of Monterrey. Mexico’s National Human Rights Commission said soldiers destroyed surveillance cameras, planted guns on the two young men and took away their backpacks in an attempt to claim they were gang members. The military admitted the two were students after university officials spoke out.

In that case, military and civilian federal prosecutors are conducting a joint investigation into the killings. The military, however, is in charge of the investigation into the allegation of crime-scene tampering.

In the second case, two brothers aged 5 and 9 were killed in April in their family’s car in the northern state of Tamaulipas. The rights commission said in a report that there was no gunbattle and that soldiers fired additional rounds into the family car and planted two vehicles at the scene to make it look like a crossfire incident. The Defense Department stands by its explanation and denies there was a cover-up.

The rights commission, an autonomous government institution, has received more than 4,000 abuse complaints, including torture, rape, killings and forced disappearances, since Calderon deployed tens of thousands of soldiers in December 2006 to destroy drug cartels in their strongholds.

The commission has recommended action in 69 of those cases, and the Defense Department says it is investigating 67.

So far military courts have passed down only one conviction for an abuse committed since Calderon intensified the drug war four years ago: an officer who forced a new subordinate in his unit to drink so much alcohol in a hazing ritual that he died. He was sentenced to four months in prison.

Another officer was convicted, then cleared on appeal, in the Aug. 3, 2007 death of Fausto Murillo Flores. Soldiers arrested Murillo and two other men in the northern state of Sonora, accusing them of arms possession. However, they only presented the two other men to the media and did not immediately acknowledge ever having had Murillo in custody.

Murillo’s body was later found by the side of a road and the military acknowledged having detained him.

The Defense Department has not explained why the officer was acquitted.

The military justice system operates in near total secrecy, choosing what to publicly reveal and when.

While privately informing Proctor’s family about his case, Defense Department officials have publicly refused to discuss it at all. The day after his death, Guerrero state prosecutors announced to reporters that Proctor was killed after attacking a military convoy.

His mother, angry that she kept reading news reports with that version of the events, has asked Defense Department officials to reveal publicly that soldiers were charged with planting the gun on her son. The department replied, in writing, that it would only do so after the soldiers had been sentenced.

Defense Department spokesman Col. Ricardo Trevilla told the AP to file a freedom of information petition. IT DID but was rebuffed with the explanation that information on the ongoing investigation was “classified as reserved for a period of 12 years.”

Proctor’s family, meanwhile, still doesn’t understand why he was killed.

Donna Proctor said her son hated guns so much that he rejected her suggestion that he follow in her footsteps and become a court bailiff, a job that requires carrying a sidearm.

Instead, he become a construction worker and eventually started his own business in Atlanta, Georgia. Last year, he moved to Mexico’s central state of Puebla with his Mexican-born wife and their young son, Giuseppe. The marriage foundered and his wife returned to Georgia.

Proctor stayed behind with his son and eventually met and fell in love with Liliana Gil Vargas, a waitress and mother of four. After a vacation in Barra de Coyuca, the beach town outside of Acapulco, the couple decided to move there. Proctor was saving up top to open a restaurant.

According to the document sent to his mother, the soldiers tried to stop Proctor and inspect his vehicle. They claim he fled, prompting one of the soldiers to shoot at him, hitting his car. The soldiers chased down the car and fired again, “wounding the driver who nonetheless continued to drive away, fleeing, crashing the car three kilometers down that road,” the document said.

A superior officer in the patrol told the battalion commander what happened. The battalion commander sent another officer to the scene with the AR-15 rifle “in order to be placed in the vehicle, using the hands of the deceased to try to simulate an attack against military personnel,” the document says.

For the family, there are many unanswered questions. Did Proctor really flee? Why would he have refused to stop?

Donna Proctor said he complained about being shaken down by Mexican police and soldiers but also spoke of being friendly with soldiers on the base near the home he was building in Barra de Coyuca.

“He was 32. He loved life. He loved his son and he wanted to work hard to give him something,” she said.

Donna Proctor said Mexican Defense Department officials visited her recently in Long Island and compensated her for the cost of flying her son back to the U.S. and the funeral. She said she told them she wanted justice — and for the world to know what really happened.

“I told them I had no intention of this being the end of it,” she said.

    The Hispanic Culture is violent and corrupt everywhere you go in Latin American. Just look at how violent the illegal Hispanic gangs are in the US. I don’t feel sorry about the young American being killed. When you do stupid expect bad things to happen. Didn‘t him and his girlfriend know they aren’t allowed to own any land or buildings in Mexico.
    What we have now is this. Mexican drones crashing in areas in El Paso Texas, Mexican government helicopters hovering over a US official’s house. Mexican army Humvees on US soil 15 to 20 miles from the borders. Doesn’t that sound a lot like we are in a undeclared war with Mexico right now. Remember one of the reason we enter WW1 was because of the Zimmerman Telegram. The Germany promised Mexico they could have the American Southwest back if they came into the war on their side. The Mexican allows a lie to be taught to the Mexican school children that the US stole the American Southwest from Mexico. When in fact Mexico lost the Mexican-American War with American troops holding Mexico City when the peace treaty was signed. The US paid the Mexican government $42 million in 1840 dollars for the American Southwest. Does that sound like stealing to you. It sound more like the US being extremely fair in a peace treaty. If it had been a European nation they would have taken the land without paying any money. I believe the US also paid Spain for Puerto Rico, the Phillipines, and Guam as part of the settlement of the Spanish American War.
    One more thing Cinco del Mayo is not a true Mexican holiday. In fact parts of Mexico doesn’t even celebrate it. It is a made up holiday to sell beer. Cinco Del Mayo celebrates a Mexican victory over a French Army. The reason the French Army was there is because the Mexican government refused to repay a loan the French government had made to them. Look at what is happening today. The US is the Mexican governments welfare system. Mexico is wealthy enough to take care of all it people but the elites and the government ripe off the people.

      Its true about the French and Mexico owed them money, still do.

      Don’t forget, during that tiny skirmish the Union Army sent a handful of troops and that is what turned the French back, OUR mere presence. We should have American victory over French day here.

      We won Spain’s lands in battle from the Caribbean to Philippines. We should have installed our government on them and never have paid for what WE won in battle. The land belongs to us but we let them govern themselves and send them money as well as let them have a seat in Congress and that should not be. We have been giving land back that we won honestly in battle and Mexico itself is one of those.

      The Spanish only had a handful of men in Mexico for the 300 yrs they had it. That is why the idiot Annie Anna was able to beat them and that only lasted for 20 yrs before we took back the part that was NEVER occupied by Mexicans in the first place. Twice we spared the life of silly little Generalissimo Insanity Anna and his army of thousands. We let him go back and rule the land we WON it is called Mexico.

      Side note: Spain claimed a lot of land it never seen like Russia but only occupied 1% of it. In 1750 Spain thought Baja CA was an island on the map they had.

      The Native American tribes did NOT allow Mexicans up here unless save an occasional slave other wise they murdered them on the spot. Native tribes hated them.

      VIVA LA SAN JACINTO DAY is every day in Texas. Every time I think of a Mexican, I buy a bullet and remember my family made the Republic of Texas.

    Having grown up in AZ and NM, it has ALWAYS been known that you tuck a 50 dollar bill into your passport or under your ID in your wallet in preparation for the inevitable ‘papers check’ that US tourists get while visiting. You hand the nice officer your passport, he checks to see if the ‘paper’ is there, and hands you back you passport or ID a bit lighter than before.

    Anyone who doesnt think that Mexico isnt a stinking cesspool of corruption, theft, graft, and violence is deluding themselves. PERIOD.

    I am over 70 and have known Mexico to be a corrupt place my entire life. I used to fly down to La Paz as a private pilot, and it was common knowledge that a bribe is a normal expense in Mexico. The drugs have just made it worse.

    I do agree with John Stossel, that if drugs were legal, the profit would be gone, and so would most of the crime. How many times does it take to live thought these things for our leaders to figure it out?

    The war on crime does nothing but fill our jails and keep cartels rich, at the expense of the tax payers. All the bleeding hearts cry out that it will make everyone a drug addict, but it would seem that most anyone that wants to use drugs does so already.

    We seem to be fighting drugs all over the world, to no avail, by the way. But the cost or all this boggles the mind, and yet crack and weed are readily available in any town in America, so I guess the war is really not so much a war as a crusade to appease the bleeding hearts.

      the US prison system is a ‘growth industry’ and the war on drugs is its prime ‘investment’. Even Pat Robertson has finally woken up to the injustice of harsh sentences destroying people’s lives just for getting a buzz that is less dangerous than the one from legal substances like tobacco and alcohol.

      They say ‘drug use destroys lives.’ In fact, drugs use (at least Por use) may limit people but it does NOT destroy them. What destroys lives is being locked into a prison system where corrupt and sadistic guards game the system while their superiors lead very comfortable lives feeling totally justified in their enslavement of generally good people.

    I for one am a little upset over the fact that they went to a war zone to start a new life. But having said that, Mexico has a lot more to admit to than just killing us and planting evidence. Now that our borders are more secure than they have ever been. This is exactly why Obama and the rest of them go anywhere but the south to vacation. I am proud of the mother of the killed American for wanting and not giving up on the answers she found. This is what we should do also. Until Obama puts all the rhetoric behind him and starts playing by the rules of the Constitution do the same and demand answers to our questions.

    I wouldn’t trust the Mexican Military, considering that many are probably working for drug cartels or are getting paid to look the other way. When Mexican troops were caught crossing the border into the US, that was an act of war and should have been met with a military response. Glenn used to do shows regularly about the violence on the border and the cartels in Mexico, he really should do another one. I guess the best advice is to stay out of Mexico.

    It’s a good thing the American authorities are magically immune to this, all the way up the chain of command in every department!

    Well… except for the White House. It’s full of communists. But every other department is clean as a whistle! They’d never try to pull anything multiple times, with mountains of supporting evidence left behind for anyone with even half a brain to find and clue into.

    Nope. Doesn’t happen in America. Once you hit that border, it all changes. People shoot themselves in the head, tie themselves up in sacks, and throw themselves into rivers. They also commit highly unconventional murder-suicide on the eve of major legal revelations and investigations into CPS.

    CPS… isn’t that a- nah. Never mind. That’s crazy. The Federal government would never employ social engineering or destroy families for money. Just like they didn’t test drugs and chemicals on natives, mental patients, South Americans, and other “undesirables”. Neither did Canada, right into the 40′s.

    Nope, no genocide there. Or corruption. It’s all in the White House and the DOJ. You know- low level stuff like that. The CIA, FBI, NSA are all spotless though. Put your faith in them. I’m sure they are all investigating the White House at this very moment.

      Even if the news media could verify it, they likely would not report on it, that there is a growing number of illegals from Mexico that have moved here for ONE reason only: It is too dangerous to live in many formerly relatively safe places. They are not in every instance poor, wretched, desperate-for-a job illegals, looking for a chance at a better life. They are people simply trying to save their life. This does not excuse them for not going through the correct process to immigrate. It only highlights the horrendous conditions of life for so many in that country. The place was corrupt enough before the drug cartels became so entrenched, but now it’s staggering how miserable life has become for so many. Sadly, every person in the U.S. that has purchased cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamines from Mexico (whether originating there or shipped through) shares in the bloodshed. The market that exists here, is and will be supplied no matter how many must suffer and die in Mexico and the U.S. Yes, there’s plenty of blame to go around, not just to the governments and their failed policies, but also to the ones who have made and sustain the market as well-the addicts AND the drug cartels.

      **Jose Pescador Osuna, Mexican Consul General, “We are practicing ‘La Reconquista’ in California.” (reconquista: the reconquering of the u.s.)
      **Excelsior, the national newspaper of Mexico, “The American Southwest seems to be slowly returning to the jurisdiction of Mexico without firing a single shot.”
      **Mario Obledo, California Coalition of Hispanic Organizations and California State Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Governor Jerry Brown, “California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn’t like it should leave.”
      **For those of you that have no clue about what is going on in this country, read the following re the la raza movement (reconquista: the reconquering of the u.s.)
      **Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan:
      “Por La Raza todo. Fuera de La Raza nada.”
      “Everything for the race. Everything outside the race, nothing.”
      And it’s not just Hispanics, illegal Chinese across the Southern border have increased 1000%, many from Arab countries have also crossed many who could be spies and terrorists.
      Stop the foreign invasion of America NOW!

      Once again the cover up and hand tying of the administration is revealed; they will twist each and every bit of truth into their own lies and such. I just have to wonder what the next move by old Mr Obama will be? Transfer the southwestern states back into the hands of Mexico or Spain while they apologize for the ‘evils of Americas past.”

      I use to visit Mexico in the 80′s and the Police were totally
      corrupt even back then. I can only imagine how bad they are
      now.

      You should send that to everyone in DC you can get an address for and do it every day until they figure out what the rest of us already know.

      It is the Victimless Crime Laws in the United States, but fund The Mexican drug cartels!

      The failure of the 18th amendment demonstrated the failure and fallacy of the use of government force to control personal behavior (victimless crimes). It is everyone’s right to be protected from the initiation of physical force. Why, you say? Because it is in everyone’s selfish best interest that all citizens are free. Victimless crimes laws violate that god given right. The economic consequences these “behavior control laws” (victimless crimes) is legend. The results are incarceration of productive citizens and enrichment of the criminal element. The cost of these “victimless crime” laws to the economy defies imagination. http://commonsense21c.com/

      In my profession, I’ve spent alot of time in Mexico and similar countries, where the law of the gun is the only law. Get ready America, because your traitorous government is going to bring all the violence of the third world countries here. The only saving grace we have, is the fact that here the citizens are armed and capable of fighting back, howevever, the government is going to try to make sure to disarm us beforehand…..they fail to understand, we will turn our firearms on them instead of letting that happen.

      Bottomline: Thinking of traveling to Mexico. You travel at your own risk. Why move to a war zone anyway? Are any of us surprised at the lack of cooperation from the officials in Mexico?

      I have a thought… Don’t Move to Mexico! Ok.. I know big duh huh? Who, in their right mind would move TO Mexico while all of this strife is going on down there? I am so sorry that this guy got caught in someone else’s BS… And who else here is in the LEAST bit surprised that the Mexican Gvmt does not want ot address this issue??? I won’t be going to war torn Batswana anytime soon either…
      Good for his Mom on not giving up on this. My heart is with her. At least she can honestly say he was a victim now instead of having to defend him against them.

      kickilleaglesout: Why bother. They could care less. This is just part of their agenda. The only way to make hanges for the states to wake up and start smacking this out of control occupying army called Washingtonograd around.
      Other than that, keep your powder dry and shoot straight.
