.U.S. Student Became Mexican Drug Kingpin

A .U.S. Student Became Mexican Drug Kingpin (artical by; "New York Times") shows truly that even a good citizen can truly turn into public enemy NUMBER 1. The world today is getting worse but how worse? Edgar Valdez also known as La Barbie. Edgar born a middle class suburban nieghborhood, Kids and friends teased Valdez by calling him barbie because of his looks, the name stuck. Three decades later he was assiciateed with being one of the most powerful and savage drug dealers. Valdez was a high school football star. His father was a shop owner and beleved in church work and the value of education. As  his siblings went to collage and move forward in life Valdez moved to Mexico after being indicted in the 1990's on charges of dealing marijuana. He later became the leader of the violent gang known as the Beltran-Layva which engaged in almost constant warfare with other drug dealing gangs. After so many years of multimillion dollare bountys for him police finaly arrested him he was 37 at the time. "How dose this relate to me"?
"Why do I care?" I care because even though we might think we live in a place we might think its safe many people can go wrong at one point. So I say people need to take care of themselfs and make the right dissions in their life, and how to keep your self from going under because nothing good comes out of crime.
