I think we need to stop and think before commenting sometimes. One of the saddest things about Carlos' life I think is the fact that when this video was initially posted, he was still alive. And so many comments were calling him a liar, or poking fun at how he looked, etc... And you know... at that point, the main thing Carlos had left in his life of value was basically his story. Imagine how depressing it is to have gone through ALL of his story in life, only to tell it and be accused by so many of having made it up. And then dying, not knowing the video would be reposted with the context of his murder, and ONLY THEN would most people listen to his story with empathy. Carlos, you story is not forgotten. Your story is not dismissed. May you rest in Peace.
You’re right. I haven’t even seen the whole interview yet, but I see it all over the internet. People comment just to comment sometimes. It’s sadly stupid and we really need to do better. Especially grown men.
These posers on here ain’t shit man. Take every comment you see with a grain of salt. I guarantee most of the people making negative comments “Always have a plan until they get punched in their mouth”. MT.
Ya man. I smell BS on this one. He absolutely loved the life he had (power, respect, unlimited variety of willing women, houses, cars, being a King) then he got caught. He’s full of it. No love lost here
@@big_red_machine3547 I was hoping to hear why those first two men failed to pay the cartel their money, and what happened to the mom and kids who came home early.
Says it's not the life wanted but constantly brags about all the money,power and women he had access to. He's full of bullshit, if he really wanted out he could have went to the FBI.
Great quote. Really puts things in perspective. Being rich is an illusion. "For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? For what can a man give in return for his soul? For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.” - Mark 8:36-38
*A question American consumers should be asking 99% of the famous people they blindly trust, praise and ultimately worship in entertainment and the fake news.* I'm a deep insider to the entertainment industry which is quite literally an industrialized sex cult full of rapists, pedophiles and prostitutes *and it's quite literally the most famous men and women on earth doing this sick shit in exchange for their careers.* My brother is a hugely successful and well known casting director on a first name basis with the most powerful and successful people in production as well as actors, singers and rappers. *His brother, on the other hand, has been used for casting couch tapes by some of the most famous women on earth that are traded to the most powerful media moguls in exchange for the careers you all see them with today.* It's typical that this goes on when most of them are teenagers, but the legal women do it too. The most famous female role models on earth are not the people the media has presented them to be, not even close. *I know the factual virginity stories behind their first times contrary to the lies they told the world because they've ritualistically used me.* I've known Britney Spears face to face since she was 13 and I was 17. If you search her name with "secret boyfriend" that she's never named, you just read a long ass post from him. Justin is a liar and so is the retard Jason Alexander.
Carlos was a product of his environment. Sadly, he didn't have a chance growing up with 2 addict parents. I say this as a teacher who has witnessed far too many children with problems because of their home life. Survival skills are all they know. These skills will lead kids down paths they never dreamed of just to get by. They get hooked and it is incredibly hard to leave. Rest in peace, Carlos.
I think being is one of the most important jobs there is and I think it's up there as important as an emt, firefighter and teachers are extremely underpaid they should be geting paid just as much of a dr.
Finally,... Cuz there for a while, the guest couldn't get a full thought out of his mouth before Mark was throwing yet another distracting question. He's doing way way better now...
They put a green light on him way before he ever said anything and because of that green light he went to the feds and good for him, he knew he was gonna die so might as well take some of those evil bustards with u
To know your being targeted but yet still putting your story out there you sir are an extraordinary man may you rest in eternal peace god bless your family
@@BuckingHorse-BullYou’re a fucking idiot if u think a career high ranking criminal didn’t know the risks of coming out clean. Dude knew they were after him anyway and wanted to leave some legacy.
He's reached hundreds of thousands of people by speaking up against the violence he's faced and grown up in/with. Simply by telling his story. Such a brave young man 👏🏻🕊️ R.I.P. Carlos.
Mark, I’ve been binge watching your channel for the past few weeks now. This is the first time I have seen the danger that you put yourself in and interviewing these people. This goes beyond driving up and down Fig. Please be safe out there and I’m praying for you. God bless this man’s family.❤❤❤
When I watched this interview when it was initially posted, the energy was so heavy I couldn’t even finish watching it. And I have watched almost every SWUB interviews. I am not religious but I truly hope his soul is resting in peace. You no longer have to hide, be free 🦋
Unfortunately, those who choose to continue to live in sin and turn away from the one who came down to die on the cross for our sins Jesus Christ are turned away from the kingdom of heaven. Repent from your sins. Truly ask for forgiveness and follow Jesus. Nobody comes to the father except through Jesus. He's the way the truth the life. John 14:6❤
@@jackiea4077you truly have no idea what the real world is like for people born/living in circumstances other than your little bubble. Not everyone has a choice, believe it or not. And a quick reminder, the god you’re referring to is one of about 2,870 deities. Try expanding your worldview before casting judgement, Christian.
@jordanjoseph6296 The Lord gave us free will (a choice). Telling the truth isn't casting judgment. That's what's wrong with society. The truth hurts. People get offended too easily. I kept re reading my message to see if I casted any judgment, and I did not! I'm simply telling the truth and what's in the Bible. Not my truth. Not my opinion. Just what the Lord says in the Bible. Luke 10:16-17 Matthew 10:33. These are some I should have attached to my first message. Galatians 5:19-21 Ephesians 5:5 1 Timothy 1:9 Hebrews 12:14 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Revelation 22:15
What an absolute tragedy. This one has such a heavy energy, can’t really explain it. But honestly, how special to have his story out there for the world to see him, hear him, and maybe even get to know him for a minute. RIP Carlos 🕊️ But Mark, please please be careful. This is scary stuff.
I can feel the sincere sadness in his tone. The pauses to me add genuine emotion and it represents how retelling his story is traumatizing for him. I suffer from ptsd, and I can’t imagine the pain he endured. I feel like he had alot of remorse for what he did even though he only did what he did to survive. I have nothing but respect for him for sharing his story. The tiredness in his voice truly showed how much burden his life had on him. I hope that he is now able to rest in peace. RIP.
@@erickiyoshiphillips2323he entered the cartel at 17. still a teen. still a child. he had no choice but to say yes or they would have killed him on the spot. poor guy never had a chance at a real life. he was forced into it
@@erickiyoshiphillips2323he was kidnapped at 12 and told to sell drugs or let his father die. I won’t justify his murders but the poor guy had zero chances.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, alcoholism, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
When this first posted and I kept watching his mask keep slipping I was so worried that his identity would be revealed. Then listening to him, his details were specific enough that the cartel would have no doubt who he was. And he knew. He knew the risk and still wanted the story out there. It was on his terms. I’m praying for the safety of his family and Mark. My fear is that they don’t want ANYONE associated with someone who talk to live. Please be safe Mark.
Many times when someone is wearing a mask, slipping or not they can be recognized especially by someone who knows you well. Add to that his story and the details that would have been known to his enemies.
I lost a good friend in Juarez about a decade ago. I remember when things started going down and getting messy. We knew it was coming but u cant do anything to stop it. After things had settled, I got a letter of dates and times my conversations were wiretapped. Such a weird feeling reading that letter, but a reminder that lifestyle leads to nowhere and theres no real friends in the business. These days i pray everyday, im home every night, i have 1 close friend and live in the middle of nowhere with my cat. Im sorry Carlos cant be with his family doing the same. RIP
I was born in Sinaloa. Came to the US when I was 8. I’m 39 now. I went back in 2001 to visit and never went back. It’s to dangerous. It’s not the Mexico I was born into. The cartels have destroyed the population with their drugs and violence. I hope to go back one day and not have to keep looking over my shoulder or be scared for my safety or the safety of my family.
Same here, I came here when I was 2 years old and ever since I never went back. Don’t know how it was years ago and I don’t want to know how it is now but by the way people talk it’s too dangerous to live there. Would not let my kids go and visit.
Well I’m from Michoacán, los zetas y la familia michoacana I think took over years ago don’t know if you remember that. But it was heavy back then, I had family members who went to visit and said that you have to know where to drive if you don’t want to get robbed or kidnapped by Mexican cartels for money because they go for the strangers that don’t know their way around there.
I feel an overwhelming amount of sadness for carlos 😔 Everyone called him a liar, ridiculed him for his "disguise", etc.... Rest in peace, Carlos. May god and all of his angels watch over your family 🕊🤍
THE CARTEL KILLED MY UNCLE, And His DAD BEFORE HIM AND HIS DAD BEFORE HIM. IT'S A CRAZY LIFE WHEN I WENT TO MEXICO TO VISIT HIM I REMEMBER WE HAD A ARMED AMERICAN EX COP BE OUR GUARD WHILE WE JUST WANTED TO SPEND TIME WITH FAMILY LOL.SOME CRAZY SHIT I DIDN'T REALIZE ABOUT MY FAMILY. INSTEAD OF CUTTING OFF THEIR PENIS THEY CUT OFF THE RIGHT HAND FOR SOME REASON AND THEN WHEN YOU DON'T PAY THE RANSOM YOU GET THE HEAD IN THE MAIL LIKE HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN GOT SADLY. HE WAS SUCH A NICE AND GIVING GUY IT'S A SHAME MONEY Got The BEST OF THEM.
@@Yetified_Mayhem YEAH APPARENTLY MY UNCLE SAID IF HE EVER GOT KIDNAPPED NOT TO PAY THE RANSOM BECAUSE THEY PAID FOR HIS FATHERS IN THE MILLIONS AND THEY STILL KILLED HIM. SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR FRIEND IT'S CRAZY OUT THERE.
@@Rico401Prov So if the cartel knocked on your door tomorrow and said you have to sell for them, you're going to say no? Do you realize what they do to people who refuse them?? You are incredibly ignorant.
Pablo Escobar made more money in 1 year, than the entire mob in their entire existence. So obviously, these latin cartels are next level when it comes to the murder game
he knew what was awaiting for him and he was tired of hiding and running from it. This was his way of repenting himself believe it or not. It’s sad this life swallowed him whole and never spit him out. Rest in peace to what seems like a lost beautiful soul that just went down the wrong path. May god forgive you for things youve done, and things you had no choice but to do to survive. My condolences to your family, and pray god protects them for you!🕊️
@shivahuggins1276 No doubt he did terrible things, he didn't join voluntarily and most make the mistake you can just leave. It clearly doesn't work that way. Carlos did express regret for what he did. The cartels are serious about death is the only way to leave. Carlos was never had a chance
I’m glad to hear the story told by someone who actually lived it. TV shows glamorized the Cartel so much. It’s crazy to think some people became “fans” of Pablo Escobar after watching the show Narcos. Thank you both for this interview.
@@mrdeebo313 only folks with no real dignity and backbone glorify these mass murderers, these men are in the same bracket as Hitler if you ask me and you dont see people glorify him
I'm from Mexico, I've been watching your videos since the one with Christina. And, I think that this is the hardest to swallow, given that it hits close to home. Specially since tomorrow is Mexico's Independence day. It's truly sad that my country is such a dangerous place to live in, because of its own people, and is probably getting worse this year. But I have hope in my people and I specially thank brave people like Carlos for telling the true story, and his family for letting his legacy live. Descansa en paz, Carlos.
Now, consider how we feel now that the deranged liberals and Democrats particularly celebrities are demanding we import 3rd world criminals by the literal tens of millions. I'm handicap and although social security was created for people like me, most of us cannot actually get it and meanwhile my government hands 1.3 trillion dollars a year to fund the lives of illegal aliens who are having record numbers of children and bringing nonstop crime.
A TOTAL FALACY!!!!! MEXICO IS NOT THAT DANGEROUS, THE U.S. IS FAR MORE DANGEROUS, A DECADENT SOCIETY ARMED TO THE TEETH, WITH NO VALUES AND DRUG CONSUMPTION TO THE ROOF. MEXICO HAS DANGEROUS AREAS BUT IS A BIG LIE TO SAY THAT ALL THE COUNTRY IS LIKE THAT!!! TOMORROW IS MEXICO´S INDEPENDENCE DAY AND WE ARE GOING TO SHOUT IT LOUDLY AND WITHOUT FEAR. THE CURRENT GOVERNMENT HAS REDUCED VIOLENT KILLINGS FROM 36,000 ANUALLY IN PEÑA NIETO AND CALDERÓNS ´S ERA, TO 28,000, SO THE FIGHT AGAINTS CARTELS HAS WORKED, AND WE HOPE TO IMPROVE THOSE NUMBERS WITH OUR NEW PRESIDENT!!!! SO STOP SPREADING LIES AND GENERALIZE THE PROBLEM!!
It was one of the best, I agree. He was a man of few words but said a lot. He seemed like a sensitive guy with a conscience. He just wanted to be regular. I believe him.
@@pinkaholic09 Yeah, I agree - I wasn't gonna watch this, but I think The Holy Spirit led me, so I did, and WOW! I mean I knew drug dealers had tough lives, but I never dreamed it could be this absolutely sooo corrupt. Well hopefully MAGA and ICE will end this sh- - ! It's so scary, I'm even afraid to go vacation in Mexico, how can anyone feel safe these days? Pray for Carlos family, and for Donald J Trump, as he definitely aint looking the other way when it comes to stuff like this. Pray for Border Patrol and that when the borders are all walled up, it will be stopped. But I see it's not just here, it's all over the US, and the World. Pray for all of this, as we are living the Last Days, VOTE FOR TRUMP !!! God Bless Mark for getting this out, and God Bless the USA
I can tell why people think hes lying hes keeping his story so plain and simple but i notice he keeps pausing everytime he says something because all the shit hes been through it ain't easy to put into words, its traumatizing
I grew up with divorced parents and an addicted mom. I relate to the struggles and to the path Carlos took. Rest in peace my brother from another mother.
Yeah but they only had the opportunity to go so big because the United States Allowed it. IN REALITY, yes they are very powerful but American Intelligence & Weapon strength could wipe them off the map, BUT! it would really ruin relations with Mexico. It would turn them into another country to worry about like The middle east where it's run by terrorist, we would literally turn it upside down. Ruining it's heritage, so We're just letting them do it to themselves. We could make Mexico look like another Japan 1945....and the cartels would just have to resort to their smaller factions around the globe but any business in the U.S and Canada would be close to nothing. We already have legal Weed here, Many Americans make their own Meth & Coke. It would be almost like a country with no McDonald's, we still have the ingredients for Burgers, we just have to make it ourselves. & You would actually see the O.D's in the America Plummet.
@@Moikkamoi777 They've corrupted and coerced multiple governments to do their bidding and are responsible for essentially all the hardcore drugs flowing in and out of most countries
The soft spoken ones are always the ones you need to watch out for he’s calm collective and speaks softly he definitely has been through some tuff shit
wow, I am glad he was able to tell his story. May he rest in peace. I am glad the family wants the video up. You never know who could reach or what kid is thinking of taking or already on a bad path.
Even Carlos never realized or learned that nobody in his world ever had "Respect." They only had "Fear." And it doesn't require superior intelligence to create "Fear." It only needs inhumane, savage, merciless, pitiless disregard for human life. They have all been reduced to mere animals.
@@freshcoastlife i would say he went into further detail of the actual cartel. He said what we see in movies and shows is nothing compared to the real brutality that he saw first hand.
@@freshcoastlifehahaha for real. Dudes story dont add up. He gives no timeline and after 17 years old he basically stopped telling the story chronologically. Over half the interview is him giving generic details that you find in every documentary
@xacttoeblade you are nothing more than a product of your environment. if a cartel member came into your home at age 12 and forced you to do drug runs or else ur dad would be killed, what do u think you’d do? you really think you’d end up better than him?
@G.A.N_frame_fr he said he snitched on a couple guys after he found out it was a price on his head. He said they thought he was going to snitch so they wanted him killed. Once he found that out, he snitched on couple guys.
Yeah it’s crazy I never learn about South American criminals until I was college age. This is definitely a lot of informative stuff than order of operations
The problem is young kids from poor heavy crime areas will hear lots of money, women, power and respect. They won't appreciate an older man reflecting back on his life. Unfortunately, I think, it will promote it more, not less.
I’ve lived in coastal Mexico for many years. Once, I’ve spent a Sunday afternoon in a beach club and the area beside me their was a big cartel get together. I will never forget their eyes, their gaze, it was scary yet so very sad. They looked so rich yet so empty. RIP Carlos
Just so you know those are only a small perecentage of the population of Mexico like 10% if I’m being honest. The other 90 are harmless people that probably have a cousin or uncle in the business
@@cdog94544Consider yourself lucky if you’ve never gazed into the eyes of someone who’s lived through constant death and destruction. Trauma changes both the body and the mind.
You do not EVER wanna be able to RELATE to what this man is explaining the horror, pain , and empty feeling your left with will NEVER LEAVE YOU R.I.P. BROTHER
I apreciate your format, large print and held long enough to read, curious how you decided to hold text that long. And why other editors are choosing short times.
Kids in JDC or just young people in general should all hear Carlos's story. He doesnt glorify it and tells the honest truth about what life working for the cartels/gangs is actually like. RIP to him
with all the heavy sighs throughout the interview you could tell his life was starting to catch up with him and or the regrets on his decisions/actions. its a real shame.....he didnt choose to be in it, it chose him and he just had to survive. i can only hope his ending was quick and painless.... RIP
It's so hard to commit suicide. I have tried twice, i'm 60 now. I picked up so many bad habits hoping that eventually it would just happen. I believe it's why people who use drugs, use drugs. It's a form of suicide. He knew doing this interview would most likely get him killed.
@T0PSH00TA1cope and cry. If you knew Spanish and did your research on cartel activities. There's way way way crazier things people go through than this.
@@yaseminyerlikaya7374 not all the way but he drops it so you get a profile of his mouth. The way he pronounces and accentuates speech is clearly visible.
It breaks my heart knowing that since he was a baby that he never had a choice and was forced to life his life like that. He never got a chance to truly experience the beauty of life and love without being terrified all the time.. May his soul rest in ever lasting peace ❤️🩹
This interview shows the severity of one’s upbringing by parents, friends, experiences, etc. To me, it sounds like he truly never had a chance to live a free life from age 12. How unfortunate.
The fact he got to speak his truth so close to the end😔 We look at gangsters, dealers & cartel members with so much disdain... but imagine having to take your parent's 'spot' to spare their life at the tender age of 12. This is heartbreaking. May he rest in peace.
I'm a Marine Veteran..... No doubt this is a true story. People who know what true experiences sound like will know he's not lying. Anyway, The best place to hide is in plain sight. Of course the cartels are watching this video.... They're supposed to watch this video. If they think he's already been killed then they stop lookin for him. With him and his family in Jeopardy, especially his family.... Do people really think he's going to do an interview like this without the feds? Only two things could have happened. He's really dead and everything he says is 100% true.... or he used this interview to assist with his witness protection process. Dude won't just do an interview like this strictly on impulse... Obviously his family would be at risk.. maybe even Mark too. The feds knew about this interview. They might even have set it up.. Who really knows. What I do know is, he's got the 1000 yard stare same as a combat veteran
You being a Veteran has nothing to do with this. And people who know "a little bit" about this game know its not true. I could go on and on about why i feel this way. The only thing i will say to You is traffickers DO NOT travel to Mexico for their next loads, add to that with an undocumented 12 year old so He can look like a kidnapper too? As far as you saying "only two things could have happened" Wow, no one else but a Veteran could have surmised that. Thanks.
well being in the military or veteran, streets gangs, cartels, mafias n all that have similar lifestyles n ties together, not the same thing but a lot of similarities
His poor parents set him up from the day he was born to be in this life. And he died in that life. So incredibly sad 😭. Thank you for sharing his story Mark 🙏🏼
Pienso que Carlos estaba muy cansado de vivir asi, el no queria seguir con esa vida, pero no tuvo eleccion. Y el sabia que al hablar publicamente, esto iba a pasar. Mis mas sinceras condolencias. Descansa en Paz Carlos. 🙏🕊
Yo pienso que su "cuento" son mentiras. En 48:32 fijate como dice "LA SINALOA, CULICAN". Quien dice por ejemplo "La Baja California, Tijuana"? Y ni pronunciar "Culiacan" correcto. Ahora si hubiera dicho algo como "Fuimos con unos Culichis" o algo parecido entonces seria mas posible de creer. Ahora tu crees que traficantes viajan asta Mexico con un morro de 12 anios sin papeles que no es familia por su siguiente cargamento? Si, ahorita. Tambien sus dos padres eran adictos, para ti es sentido comun que le dejaran una cantidad de drogas a que el las venda? Por favor.
I can't even imagine what he was feeling exposing himself and his truth knowing his life would come to an end.......I've heard stories of the cartel but never really believed how brutal they were. It's scary to think about. He was a brave man for sharing his life. Thank you Carlos. Thank you Mark for this interview.
This was so raw… the pace u told his life story… the breathing. When u mention he didn’t want this life but it would mean his dad died and then having his life extended when he took on more loads at that table 😢😢😢😢 his back has always been against the wall. RIP
We need to get involved with the kids in our communities and be the role models and support that they need so desperately. I’ve been working with teens for 25 years and I think there are so many that take them for granted. This kid didn’t want that life. He feared for his life. How awful that must feel.
Men have a real crossroad in their life. The last one is around the age of 35-40. This is the time where you can focus on being a family man and letting go of the past life. Or only have 1 foot in and end of losing everything as a result of a street beef or another prison term. It is so imperative to not get involved in the streets to seek validation or think you are respected. You will end up with no friends or family. Eventually you will realize you were just a spoke in the wheel. Used and abused.
So heartbroken for him and his family! And for so many that are forced into situations like this. I cannot remember exactly when I watched this originally but it had to be roughly a week ago. I was shocked by the sheer number of people calling him a fake. I didn’t look at the comments until the video was over but I never doubted him once while listening to his story. RIP Carlos….that boy that was basically never given a chance…and then to be called a liar! Shame on all of you! Prayers to his family…….may you find peace and safety. 🙏🏼❤️
“This is not the life I wanted, but I wanted to live.” The suffering this man must have gone through during his time on earth is unimaginable to me. His anxiety and paranoia, always looking behind his back. His soul is finally at peace now and he can rest without fear.
Not necessarily. The interview is the reason he got killed when he did, he possibly would have had a few more years or even a decade if he decided to not do the interview
People saying “put the speed to 1.25”, I get it’s not a fast going story but hearing his voice through his speed and motion makes it original. Don’t be impatient with a story like this.
What kind of moron feels sorry for anything that happens to a cartel member, even the drop outs? There are children being trafficked, and starving, but you feel sympathy for cartel members? You should be sorry for the loved ones who lost family members do due the drugs the cartels sold.
I really hope he knew how appreciated his story is and how incredibly strong he was before tragically having his life taken from him. Much love and support to his family, I hope there’s no more suffering in their future❤️
@@oliviagrace9650It's most likely a fake death the witness protection did to give him a new life. Soft White Underbelly is trying to officiate his death to his former cartel that is actively hunting him. Use critical thinking instead of believing everything you see at face value.
A Prime example of being Forced into shitty circumstances. I garnered empathy for him. Being forced into a life... Literally... not because u wanted cash or just Loved the images u saw... but to be Made into a life before u can make a proper decision.... I Hope he can finally be at peace to Some degree... and I pray his family's safety and peace. Thanks So Much for these stories. I've been a Long time fan of ur photography And stories. Please keep doing this. Spiritually, u help ppl Understand Others they may Never have given thought to... mentally, keeps us from being close minded or thinking the Worst has happened to Us. Beautiful and poetic as sad and Heartbreaking a Lot of these R
Mark i love what you do for man kind. You are truly gifted. But please as a mexican i know the dangers of this subject. No one goes un touched. So please just be careful man. Not saying you should be scared. But dont be over confident or careless. Keep up the good work
He expected the Cartel to take care of his family. They didn't. He would not have flipped on them if they would have fulfilled their end of the deal. My thoughts.
I'd like to think you're right. But when facing so much time, I think any rational human being would talk. Anyone who says they wouldn't have never been in that situation or are a liar.
Exactly. People always talking trash about snitches just shows how ignorant they are. If they were facing 40 years or talk and be free same day thyd def talk i know i would lol@@sarkattack
@@hi-ic2nbAnd by free, you mean dead, so the choice isn't so simple as all that. Dead vs. 40 years. But not a quick respectful death I wouldn't assume. He must've thought either he was hidden away well enough or he already had accepted that he would be caught up to and mutilated. Maybe a person can almost feel like they deserve it after doing those things themselves, who knows? Not me. I have no business even commenting except to say 'free'? No. Not free.
I think we need to stop and think before commenting sometimes. One of the saddest things about Carlos' life I think is the fact that when this video was initially posted, he was still alive. And so many comments were calling him a liar, or poking fun at how he looked, etc... And you know... at that point, the main thing Carlos had left in his life of value was basically his story. Imagine how depressing it is to have gone through ALL of his story in life, only to tell it and be accused by so many of having made it up. And then dying, not knowing the video would be reposted with the context of his murder, and ONLY THEN would most people listen to his story with empathy.
Carlos, you story is not forgotten. Your story is not dismissed. May you rest in Peace.
You’re right. I haven’t even seen the whole interview yet, but I see it all over the internet. People comment just to comment sometimes. It’s sadly stupid and we really need to do better. Especially grown men.
For reals. And many commenting and smearing his name are a bunch of dumb f#ks
These posers on here ain’t shit man. Take every comment you see with a grain of salt. I guarantee most of the people making negative comments “Always have a plan until they get punched in their mouth”. MT.
Very well said
ppl have disgusting behavior issues unhinged and are rude! Very well said comment! 🤍
“This is not the life I wanted, but I wanted to live” hit me so hard knowing he didn’t make it. I hope his family is safe.
Ya man. I smell BS on this one. He absolutely loved the life he had (power, respect, unlimited variety of willing women, houses, cars, being a King) then he got caught. He’s full of it. No love lost here

True
I don't understand why didn't they provided that for em. Most other interviews are usually blurred out
Why try to cover anything at all then? Seems pointless.
It is the cartel’s he even said you can’t get out only one way
Out of all the interviews I’ve watched, my heart hurts most with this man.
“This is not the life I wanted, but I wanted to live”
That hit deep.
proves life is ephemeral, every second it ticks on, is not guaranteed for anyone, anywhere.
VERY deep. May Carlos Rest In Peace
Out of all the interviews I seen, I can’t even listen to this while I work because I call BS on his story

Says it's not the life wanted but constantly brags about all the money,power and women he had access to. He's full of bullshit, if he really wanted out he could have went to the FBI.
"What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world and lose his soul?"
Great quote. Really puts things in perspective. Being rich is an illusion.
"For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? For what can a man give in return for his soul? For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.” - Mark 8:36-38
Great verse, but we should be quoting only from the pure King James Bible.
That's kind of foolish to tell someone which variation of mythology book they can quote from@@martinmummert5614
*A question American consumers should be asking 99% of the famous people they blindly trust, praise and ultimately worship in entertainment and the fake news.*
I'm a deep insider to the entertainment industry which is quite literally an industrialized sex cult full of rapists, pedophiles and prostitutes *and it's quite literally the most famous men and women on earth doing this sick shit in exchange for their careers.*
My brother is a hugely successful and well known casting director on a first name basis with the most powerful and successful people in production as well as actors, singers and rappers. *His brother, on the other hand, has been used for casting couch tapes by some of the most famous women on earth that are traded to the most powerful media moguls in exchange for the careers you all see them with today.*
It's typical that this goes on when most of them are teenagers, but the legal women do it too.
The most famous female role models on earth are not the people the media has presented them to be, not even close. *I know the factual virginity stories behind their first times contrary to the lies they told the world because they've ritualistically used me.*
I've known Britney Spears face to face since she was 13 and I was 17. If you search her name with "secret boyfriend" that she's never named, you just read a long ass post from him. Justin is a liar and so is the retard Jason Alexander.

Carlos was a product of his environment. Sadly, he didn't have a chance growing up with 2 addict parents. I say this as a teacher who has witnessed far too many children with problems because of their home life. Survival skills are all they know. These skills will lead kids down paths they never dreamed of just to get by. They get hooked and it is incredibly hard to leave. Rest in peace, Carlos.
God bless and thank you for teaching

I can feel the sincere sadness in his tone. The pauses to me add genuine emotion and it represents how retelling his story is traumatizing for him. I suffer from ptsd, and I can’t imagine the pain he endured. I feel like he had alot of remorse for what he did even though he only did what he did to survive. I have nothing but respect for him for sharing his story. The tiredness in his voice truly showed how much burden his life had on him. I hope that he is now able to rest in peace. RIP.

@@tennis9811you don't simply walk away from the cartel. It doesn't work like that. Once you're a part of it, you are pretty much owned..
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety, alcoholism, smoking, and illicit pills addiction. Imagine carving heavy chains for a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not, in a couple of years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
Congrats on your recovery. Most people don't realize that psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives.
To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.
Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in Switzerland. Really need!
Yes, Sporeville. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.
Shrooms saved me from meth addiction too. Psychedelics could really help addicts a lot!
When this first posted and I kept watching his mask keep slipping I was so worried that his identity would be revealed. Then listening to him, his details were specific enough that the cartel would have no doubt who he was. And he knew. He knew the risk and still wanted the story out there. It was on his terms. I’m praying for the safety of his family and Mark. My fear is that they don’t want ANYONE associated with someone who talk to live. Please be safe Mark.
Many times when someone is wearing a mask, slipping or not they can be recognized especially by someone who knows you well. Add to that his story and the details that would have been known to his enemies.

They could have done the interview using voice altering software, & not shown him on camera, too.

I lost a good friend in Juarez about a decade ago. I remember when things started going down and getting messy. We knew it was coming but u cant do anything to stop it. After things had settled, I got a letter of dates and times my conversations were wiretapped. Such a weird feeling reading that letter, but a reminder that lifestyle leads to nowhere and theres no real friends in the business.
These days i pray everyday, im home every night, i have 1 close friend and live in the middle of nowhere with my cat. Im sorry Carlos cant be with his family doing the same. RIP

@@who_we_are______5926 he’s probably being as honest about his cartel interactions as Carlos in this video is.
I was born in Sinaloa. Came to the US when I was 8. I’m 39 now. I went back in 2001 to visit and never went back. It’s to dangerous. It’s not the Mexico I was born into. The cartels have destroyed the population with their drugs and violence. I hope to go back one day and not have to keep looking over my shoulder or be scared for my safety or the safety of my family.
Same here, I came here when I was 2 years old and ever since I never went back. Don’t know how it was years ago and I don’t want to know how it is now but by the way people talk it’s too dangerous to live there. Would not let my kids go and visit.
it's not like that in Zac I have gone and know those who go every year
Well I’m from Michoacán, los zetas y la familia michoacana I think took over years ago don’t know if you remember that. But it was heavy back then, I had family members who went to visit and said that you have to know where to drive if you don’t want to get robbed or kidnapped by Mexican cartels for money because they go for the strangers that don’t know their way around there.
Last visited tijuana mazatlan and culican. Nothing scarey just fields and fields of nothings. 😅
As long as you don’t know anyone in it and you don’t try to show off or be cocky, they’re not gonna mess w you

the real red pill here is that the cartel is run by the same dark forces that run everything else evil.
Yeah but they only had the opportunity to go so big because the United States Allowed it. IN REALITY, yes they are very powerful but American Intelligence & Weapon strength could wipe them off the map, BUT! it would really ruin relations with Mexico. It would turn them into another country to worry about like The middle east where it's run by terrorist, we would literally turn it upside down. Ruining it's heritage, so We're just letting them do it to themselves. We could make Mexico look like another Japan 1945....and the cartels would just have to resort to their smaller factions around the globe but any business in the U.S and Canada would be close to nothing. We already have legal Weed here, Many Americans make their own Meth & Coke. It would be almost like a country with no McDonald's, we still have the ingredients for Burgers, we just have to make it ourselves. & You would actually see the O.D's in the America Plummet.

with all the heavy sighs throughout the interview you could tell his life was starting to catch up with him and or the regrets on his decisions/actions. its a real shame.....he didnt choose to be in it, it chose him and he just had to survive. i can only hope his ending was quick and painless.... RIP
And it wasn’t
@jorben1990 hmm .... IT wasn't? Why do I feel like cartel is all over this thread ?
@@angelajaramillo1644 they’re all over Texas, in plain sight.
It's so hard to commit suicide. I have tried twice, i'm 60 now. I picked up so many bad habits hoping that eventually it would just happen. I believe it's why people who use drugs, use drugs. It's a form of suicide. He knew doing this interview would most likely get him killed.
Stay strong mate. I know that feeling its a battle.
That's powerful. Also I can relate with you on everything but age. I'm in my late 30s.
💯💯🙏
what happened to him?
@@chameleonsoule314fell out of a window
It’s the fact he was able to tell his thoughts right before, like the ending of a movie. RIP 😞
supposedly
I was wondering what happened when this was first posted. At one point comments were turned off and then it disappeared.
Carlos dropped his face mask
@@Hillochillwhen?
@T0PSH00TA1cope and cry. If you knew Spanish and did your research on cartel activities. There's way way way crazier things people go through than this.
@@yaseminyerlikaya7374 not all the way but he drops it so you get a profile of his mouth. The way he pronounces and accentuates speech is clearly visible.
@T0PSH00TA1 troll.
It breaks my heart knowing that since he was a baby that he never had a choice and was forced to life his life like that.
He never got a chance to truly experience the beauty of life and love without being terrified all the time..
May his soul rest in ever lasting peace ❤️🩹
This interview shows the severity of one’s upbringing by parents, friends, experiences, etc.
To me, it sounds like he truly never had a chance to live a free life from age 12.
How unfortunate.
The fact he got to speak his truth so close to the end😔 We look at gangsters, dealers & cartel members with so much disdain... but imagine having to take your parent's 'spot' to spare their life at the tender age of 12.
This is heartbreaking.
May he rest in peace.
I'm a Marine Veteran..... No doubt this is a true story. People who know what true experiences sound like will know he's not lying. Anyway, The best place to hide is in plain sight. Of course the cartels are watching this video.... They're supposed to watch this video. If they think he's already been killed then they stop lookin for him. With him and his family in Jeopardy, especially his family.... Do people really think he's going to do an interview like this without the feds? Only two things could have happened. He's really dead and everything he says is 100% true.... or he used this interview to assist with his witness protection process. Dude won't just do an interview like this strictly on impulse... Obviously his family would be at risk.. maybe even Mark too. The feds knew about this interview. They might even have set it up.. Who really knows. What I do know is, he's got the 1000 yard stare same as a combat veteran
You being a Veteran has nothing to do with this. And people who know "a little bit" about this game know its not true. I could go on and on about why i feel this way. The only thing i will say to You is traffickers DO NOT travel to Mexico for their next loads, add to that with an undocumented 12 year old so He can look like a kidnapper too? As far as you saying "only two things could have happened" Wow, no one else but a Veteran could have surmised that. Thanks.
1000 yard stare? He has glasses on…
well being in the military or veteran, streets gangs, cartels, mafias n all that have similar lifestyles n ties together, not the same thing but a lot of similarities
@@LadyyInsanee100 percent true
He probably scammed mark for some money
His poor parents set him up from the day he was born to be in this life. And he died in that life. So incredibly sad 😭. Thank you for sharing his story Mark 🙏🏼
Pienso que Carlos estaba muy cansado de vivir asi, el no queria seguir con esa vida, pero no tuvo eleccion. Y el sabia que al hablar publicamente, esto iba a pasar. Mis mas sinceras condolencias. Descansa en Paz Carlos. 🙏🕊
Yo pienso que su "cuento" son mentiras. En 48:32 fijate como dice "LA SINALOA, CULICAN". Quien dice por ejemplo "La Baja California, Tijuana"? Y ni pronunciar "Culiacan" correcto. Ahora si hubiera dicho algo como "Fuimos con unos Culichis" o algo parecido entonces seria mas posible de creer. Ahora tu crees que traficantes viajan asta Mexico con un morro de 12 anios sin papeles que no es familia por su siguiente cargamento? Si, ahorita. Tambien sus dos padres eran adictos, para ti es sentido comun que le dejaran una cantidad de drogas a que el las venda? Por favor.
I can't even imagine what he was feeling exposing himself and his truth knowing his life would come to an end.......I've heard stories of the cartel but never really believed how brutal they were. It's scary to think about. He was a brave man for sharing his life. Thank you Carlos. Thank you Mark for this interview.
I was sad from the start. Great video, Mark.
For the haters saying that he was lying. Here it is...
He what is ?
@@Alritealritealrite that he's lying foo!
According to those dummies, every interviewee is a liar.
@@Alritealritealrite
He is DEAD now.
@@mddell58how you know?
This was so raw… the pace u told his life story… the breathing. When u mention he didn’t want this life but it would mean his dad died and then having his life extended when he took on more loads at that table 😢😢😢😢 his back has always been against the wall. RIP
This interview was truly heartbreaking. For him and the innocent victims of his past crimes.
It made me so sad to hear his story. Carlos didn’t have a chance from the start. That’s why it’s so important to be a ✨light✨ for our kids.
That can't be stressed enough!
Compelling testimony. RIP. Thanks for making this interview.
We need to get involved with the kids in our communities and be the role models and support that they need so desperately. I’ve been working with teens for 25 years and I think there are so many that take them for granted. This kid didn’t want that life. He feared for his life. How awful that must feel.
Men have a real crossroad in their life. The last one is around the age of 35-40. This is the time where you can focus on being a family man and letting go of the past life. Or only have 1 foot in and end of losing everything as a result of a street beef or another prison term. It is so imperative to not get involved in the streets to seek validation or think you are respected. You will end up with no friends or family. Eventually you will realize you were just a spoke in the wheel. Used and abused.
Wow! This hit me hard. I’m living it now.
To die at the table or to live the rest of your life in hell. What to do?
"There is never a time when a man cannot turn repentant to Me and , craving My pardon,receive it "from the book "God at eventide" ❤
Crazy eh
flip the table
i couldn’t face my death like that. especially at 17. i’m not even religious but god bless all of us for not having to make this decision.
So heartbroken for him and his family! And for so many that are forced into situations like this. I cannot remember exactly when I watched this originally but it had to be roughly a week ago. I was shocked by the sheer number of people calling him a fake. I didn’t look at the comments until the video was over but I never doubted him once while listening to his story. RIP Carlos….that boy that was basically never given a chance…and then to be called a liar! Shame on all of you! Prayers to his family…….may you find peace and safety. 🙏🏼❤️
“This is not the life I wanted, but I wanted to live.” The suffering this man must have gone through during his time on earth is unimaginable to me. His anxiety and paranoia, always looking behind his back. His soul is finally at peace now and he can rest without fear.
crazy that if Mark had been just one week late on this interview, we probably would of never heard this story
Not necessarily. The interview is the reason he got killed when he did, he possibly would have had a few more years or even a decade if he decided to not do the interview
25 minutes in and Mark hasn't had to ask a single question to prompt Carlos. Sorry man, RIP
Oh my gosh! I watched this right as soon as it went up. I am so sorry to his family and friends.
People saying “put the speed to 1.25”, I get it’s not a fast going story but hearing his voice through his speed and motion makes it original. Don’t be impatient with a story like this.
It’s tragic to know so many kids grow up with this level of trauma 😢
I always worry about these ppl that share these stories. Very sad to see he was murdered. His parents failed him 😔 RIP
I feel so sorry for him... One of the best cartel interviews on WSU...
What is WSU?
@@js1391I think they meant SWU (Soft White Underbelly)
@@js1391 White Soft Underbelly
What kind of moron feels sorry for anything that happens to a cartel member, even the drop outs? There are children being trafficked, and starving, but you feel sympathy for cartel members? You should be sorry for the loved ones who lost family members do due the drugs the cartels sold.
I really hope he knew how appreciated his story is and how incredibly strong he was before tragically having his life taken from him. Much love and support to his family, I hope there’s no more suffering in their future❤️
his parents failed him
How do you know he died ?
@@djtanikgotbeatz it says so in the beginning of the video, read the text on screen
@@oliviagrace9650It's most likely a fake death the witness protection did to give him a new life. Soft White Underbelly is trying to officiate his death to his former cartel that is actively hunting him. Use critical thinking instead of believing everything you see at face value.
A Prime example of being Forced into shitty circumstances. I garnered empathy for him. Being forced into a life... Literally... not because u wanted cash or just Loved the images u saw... but to be Made into a life before u can make a proper decision.... I Hope he can finally be at peace to Some degree... and I pray his family's safety and peace. Thanks So Much for these stories. I've been a Long time fan of ur photography And stories. Please keep doing this. Spiritually, u help ppl Understand Others they may Never have given thought to... mentally, keeps us from being close minded or thinking the Worst has happened to Us. Beautiful and poetic as sad and Heartbreaking a Lot of these R
Mark i love what you do for man kind. You are truly gifted. But please as a mexican i know the dangers of this subject. No one goes un touched. So please just be careful man. Not saying you should be scared. But dont be over confident or careless. Keep up the good work
Maybe he’s not dead. Maybe he’s in witness protection. No one would ever know
This would be pitiful upload on the part of Mark if that were the case… exploitative content at its core
@@maxredic1797how would mark know?
@@maxredic1797 How? He more like protecting them if it's the case.
yep!
Bro 🤫
He expected the Cartel to take care of his family. They didn't. He would not have flipped on them if they would have fulfilled their end of the deal. My thoughts.
I'd like to think you're right. But when facing so much time, I think any rational human being would talk. Anyone who says they wouldn't have never been in that situation or are a liar.
Exactly. People always talking trash about snitches just shows how ignorant they are. If they were facing 40 years or talk and be free same day thyd def talk i know i would lol@@sarkattack
@@hi-ic2nbAnd by free, you mean dead, so the choice isn't so simple as all that. Dead vs. 40 years. But not a quick respectful death I wouldn't assume.
He must've thought either he was hidden away well enough or he already had accepted that he would be caught up to and mutilated. Maybe a person can almost feel like they deserve it after doing those things themselves, who knows? Not me. I have no business even commenting except to say 'free'? No. Not free.
So where's the news article of this guy being gunned down?
