Now here is a dramatic twist! Apparently "El Ponchis," the teenage executioner, is a U.S. citizen.
DRUG WAR: U.S.-born 14-year-old says drug gang made him behead 4 - Press-Telegram: "Morelos Gov. Marco Adame Castillo said the boy was born in San Diego, California, and Mexican officials were researching whether he has dual nationality. A U.S. Embassy official who spoke on condition of anonymity due to embassy policy said American officials had not yet confirmed his citizenship.
The boy's sister said they were headed for Tijuana, where they planned to cross the border and seek refuge with their stepmother in San Diego. Their mother sent them money for the tickets, she said, but it was not clear where their parents are."
