Life in Rosarita Mexico was not bad when compared to many of the crime ridden holes in Mexico, but it was by no means good. At an early age, he was involved in fights and while he never joined a gang, he did commit crimes on many occasions and was friends with several members of various gangs. He avoided any criminal action because police only really cared about big time busts depending on what the mood was on organized crime at particular points, or because cops were more interested in shaking down criminals for money than they were prosecuting them. His mother and father both worked at a large restaurant near a high traffic area, so they had steady income and Ricardo was actually able to go to school and a friend of his father owned a boxing gym near them and he was allowed to train so long as he helped maintain the place with the owner. After graduating high school, he made money by boxing and also working at the gym and with his parents. When he was 19 his life changed entirely when his parents were hit by a construction vehicle and injured. His mother put into a coma and died 3 years later while his father was paralyzed from the waist down, became blind in one eye, and suffered nerve damage. While Ricardo wanted nothing more than a simple life, he was forced into a situation where he had to make enough money to pay for his parents medical bills and care. In Mexico, there are generally 3 options at that point: 1. Try to sneak to America and make enough money to support family. 2. Join the Cartels or gangs. 3. Join the militarized Federal Police. Ricardo chose the third. Over the next 8 years, his actions are extremely varied. He worked for the police but did cross training with US, Canadian, and French militaries. For about a year at one point, he was working with local police in southern Mexico as an imbedded Federal Agent in a major cartel until the Cartel’s top 5 members were arrested, tried, and convicted. After once again returning to the Federal Police, he and several other agents worked with the CIA in several places in South America, working to overthrow at least one government and to destabilize oil assets in another. The most recent two years of his life were spent working with a Joint Border Task Force that involved Mexico, the US, and Canada. If border patrol could be considered a police force, JBTF was like the SWAT team. They were the group that kicked down doors, did surveillance on, and all but went to war with illegal, and often violent, organizations that navigated the border from illegal activities. Similar to ICE agents, JBTF agents are generally greenlit by Cartels for gangs with the promise of high payouts for successful kills. His own role in the JBTF was slightly different as he once again was used to infiltrate organizations, live the life of those he was actually trying to bring down, and it was not easy. He was authorized to sell weapons, drugs, move people illegally, sanction illegal activity and bride officials all in the interest of bringing down criminals not respecting the borders. Pertinent combat information: Federal Officer Training. Tactical Breaching. Wiretapping, hacking, and espionage tactics from the CIA and FBI. Years of intel and counter intel and deep cover infiltration tactics by CIA. United States SERE training. 4 months of training with Marine HET teams (Human exploitation). Close to 2 years total of deep undercover assignments. Two time country boxing champion. .
