A joint Mexico-U.S. investigation linked a weapon used to blast a Mexican military helicopter out of the sky to a supplier from Oregon, federal firearms officials confirmed to The Courier Journal, part of the USA TODAY Network.
The short summary under his photo on the ATF's website mentions an indictment charging the 40-year-old fugitive with illegally buying weapons and smuggling them out of the U.S., but it doesn't describe the ensuing death toll..50-caliber semiautomatic machine gun
Along with the nine who died, there were others who were injured. Ivan Morales, the only other Mexican police officer on board,They had been on a mission so secretive they weren't told about it until they hurried in the darkness to a caravan of six helicopters at the Colima airport, six hours south of Puerto Vallarta and headed out to capture the leader of global powerhouse Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación.
After learning of his hideout, the military flew north over the mountain peaks of rural Jalisco, cartel headquarters. During an interview with The Courier Journal in 2019, Morales said:"I thought I was going to die." Before leaving home early that morning, his wife told him he was going to be a father for the first time. The then-33-year-old repeatedly told paramedics and doctors so they would understand that despite the severity of his injuries, he had to fight to live.
