Skip to product information
In the purest style of criminal organizations, Mexico's Judicial Power operates as if it were a cartel. It is not fortuitous. It would seem this branch has been overrun and turned into a guild of lawyers, both men and women, neglecting the highest duty of imparting justice. J. Jesús Lemus uses criminal slang as analogy to understand this branch of the government as a failing power, since generally speaking, states the author, it operates as if it were just another criminal organization, one of many that thrive in Mexico. Only that this particular "organization" does not operate underground. In what Lemus calls the Judicial Cartel, drop houses are replaced by courtrooms; clandestine command centers are now luxurious offices; work clothes, guns, and chinstraps are traded for robes, jurisprudence, and injunctions, and every judge walks empowered, untouchable, unbothered or questioned by public opinion. Judicial Cartel stems from wide-raging investigative journalism aiming to expose the full length of the Judicial Power's ingrown vices. Here you will find names and accurate information, detailed cases, particular judiciary events that intend to contribute in the exposition of the very reasons that make the need for a constitutional reform obvious and urgent, one that modifies the current structure of power and guarantees a full suppression of these judge-gods we have today: powerful, unreachable, antidemocratic, and dark.

by J. Jesús Lemus (Author)
El Cártel Judicial puede ser tan letal como el más violento de los grupos delictivos; una sentencia a modo -infundada, a la ligera, sin elementos de prueba, con pruebas viciadas o para satisfacer intereses personales- puede llegar a ser peor que la muerte.
Al más puro estilo de las organizaciones criminales, como si se tratara de un cártel, así opera el Poder Judicial en México. No es fortuito. Pareciera que este órgano ha sido secuestrado y convertido en una cofradía de letrados, hombres y mujeres, que se olvidaron de la más alta encomienda de impartición de justicia.
