Mexican Cartel Clown is Worse Than You Think

About this video

Max recounts the 2013 assassination of Mexican cartel boss Francisco Rafael Arellano Felix, who was shot and killed by a hitman dressed as a clown at a party in Los Cabos. Max explains that Francisco had controlled drug trafficking in Tijuana in the 1990s alongside his brothers and had been in a violent rivalry with El Chapo’s Sinaloa Cartel. Max presents three theories about the killer’s identity: a Sinaloa Cartel enforcer named El Chino Antrax, a U.S. government operation (which Max considers unlikely), or someone connected to cartel leader Fabian Urbino Morales who later used multiple ‘killer clowns’ to intimidate populations.
