It's not known if this was murder-suicide or something else according to the above article.

It is known that the Sinaola Cartel sent sicaros specifically to find and kill JT Ready and members of his militia (Ready's Rangers) after they shut down the Vekol Valley smuggling route in 2010.

EDIT: news media is reporting that the FBI and ICE are at the scene .... definitely not murder-suicide.

That puts a different spin on it if you're opinion is right. Just that IF the cartels offed JTR ain't the same as those people hoping to off Sheriff Joe. Few people care about a neo Nazi or New Black Panther person or even a tatted up, drugged out vato being hit. If Joe got hit: there'd be hell to pay cause the "red line" just got crossed. I won't say any more.

I'm positive that it'll come out that the cartels had nada to do with this. They don't care about this dude one bit. He's no threat to them anyway.

The ironic thing is how gun nutty this dude was. He supposedly had an arsenal in his house and would regularly show them off. Lotta help that did, huh?

Do you think the FedGov would admit it even if the cartels did do it?

Why is the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force and ICE (an agency that investigates drug cartels and smugglers) at the scene of a supposedly simple, easy to figure our murder-suicide?

I don't know why. But i still can't see the cartels giving a rip about some no-name candidate running for sheriff in a county as lame as Pinal. Hell, he can't do anything to them even if he won. They could just lure him out to a desolate area of the county on a false call and kill him....easily. That county has so many nooks and crannies that they'd never find his body.

Sheriff Babeu is becoming a thorn in the cartel's side and maybe those cartels are mad about a nutcase like JTR getting in as Sheriff in Pinal. Babeu has some big problems that may cost him his job. Like you, I'm guessing.

Let the extremists, Tea Party-types, etc., off themselves. The tragedy is how that mentality results in the loss of life of innocents.
