Two new recordings of Rodrigo Vallejo aka ‘ El Gerber” and Servando Gomez Martinez “La Tuta” were made known in a report that was presented Tuesday Morning in Primero Noticias. (video footage is combines in one video at bottom of this post)
One of the videos has footage of Vallejo, the son of the .former Governor from Michoacán, Fausto Vallejo Mora, skipping protocol while strolling into the Public security secretary (SSP) detainment section. He shows no ID, is not stopped, and does not sign in as he walks to a cell to visit a man wearing a black jacket.
The second video shows yet another TutaVision meeting between Vallejo and La Tuta, where decisions and political issues are discussed that would affect the future of Michoacan.
In the video, there is discussion of Ascension “Chon” Orihuela Barcenas, now a candidate for the governorship of Michoacán.
Vallejo expresses his detestation against Chon, and is concerned about the possibility that when his father would leave the governor’s position and Chon would fill the position. At the time of the video the governor was very ill and in need of a liver transplant.
Vallejo blamed Chon as being the person responsible, “for making all this mess”.
The video begins with Vallejo asking for a little more (whisky?beer?) in his glass, Tuta responds by saying the glass is full.
Vallejo starts speaking about Chon, asking Tuta who is behind the decisions about Chon.
He continues, saying that he has direct orders from “the party” (PRI) that “if they kill a deputy” Chon is the replacement, in other words he is the replacement for any vacant position that would arise. “If my father leaves then he would replace him.”
He speaks about wanting Jose de Jesus Reyna to replace his father’s vacancy. Because he says, Reyna can be trusted.
Eventually Governor Fausto Vallejo did leave to the United States for his new liver, and it was not Chon that took over the governor’s position, it was Reyna.
The following footage is a brief exchange between a reporter and Chon, about the conversation in the Tuta video.
The reporter asked about Vallejo’s discussion featuring Chon.
The reporter asked about Vallejo’s discussion featuring Chon.
“Oh the bastard, he is crazy” replied Chon.
The reporter asks why Vallejo is discussing him.
Chon says, “Well, because they are afraid of me, I think. Because if his father left, I was to replace him.”
And he adds that they were worried about maintaining control.

Reyna becomes Governor, then is arrested
The son of Fausto Vallejo was accused with the offence of covering up crime, while Jesus Reyna Garcia who also appears in a video with the leader of Templarios, was accused of drug trafficking and was arrested and remains incarcerated.
The PGR added no other charges against Vallejo, no trafficking, organized crime collusion, nothing. Even though there have been three videos so far featuring meetings with Tuta, in one he was carrying a weapon. This despite the fact the PGR considered La Tuta, "the most dangerous criminal in Mexico" at the time of his capture.
Rodrigo Vallejo Mora was released on bail on April 11th after paying a bond of nearly 7 thousand pesos, about 460 USD. This figure was 1,853 pesos less the bail imposed on the normalistas of Escuela Normal de Tiripetío after their arrest during a protest.
