Mexico Kills Drug Lord Thought Dead For Three Years -- BBC
Officials in Mexico say that they have killed a drug lord who was reported to have been shot dead three years ago.
Nazario Moreno, known as El Mas Loco - The Craziest One - was the founder of the La Familia cartel and regarded as the spiritual leader of its offshoot, the brutal Knights Templar.
His death was first announced after a 2010 shootout, but no body was found and he was reportedly seen alive since.
Police said he was finally tracked down and shot dead in Michoacan state.
"From a fingerprint analysis we have confirmed 100% that this was Nazario Moreno Gonzalez," said Tomas Zeron, the head of investigations at the federal prosecutor's office.
