An Axe, A Knife, And A Machete With The CJNG

…

By Samantha Johnson / March 14, 2026

“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat 

There’s a moment within this video where an axe head comes down so hard against a fallen captive’s neck that you actually get a good glimpse of blood spraying out. If there was ever a point in time where you could gauge that someone has permanently left this world, this would be it. 

Whoever this enslaved man was, he obviously exited the world right away. His screams were short-lived, if that. The same can’t be said about his counterpart. Those final moments were longer as he kept trying to wiggle away from the sharp weapons being used against him. 

Pleas for mercy are explicitly heard from both men. At one point the captive who lives a little longer is heard asking to be killed once and for all. It’s fair to say that the agonizing pain that he’s in is that unbearable. 

Assassins from the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) go about their business without compassion.
