One of the largest regional control groups in Michoacan, the Viagras, developed their identity from a university name.
The phrase" too much conditioner, no matter what it is now" was born as a mocking among peers of Carlos Sierra Santana, who was known for his hair as a child and used to wear it up with his hair.
In response to that description, he was given the nickname" Viagra," a name that, over time, may come to represent an organized crime organization that perpetrated bribery, drug trafficking, and murder.
The Sierra Santana boys, who were originally from Huetamo, Michoacán, who had a history of devoted themselves to the mating of birds and goat battle, are where the group's roots are.
This most recent interaction made them know important statistics from the area, such as Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias" El Mencho," the head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.
With the increase of neighborhood self-defense organizations in 2013, Sierra Santana capitalized on the position of a civic guard in places like Pinzándaro and Buenavista Tomatlán.
According to intelligence information quoted by Insight Crime, the armed group Los Viagras, which was part of the Mexican government-backed self-defense forces, was in reality a criminal organization operating under the facade of a civil movement.
Reports from the national security cabinet noted that Los Viagrasined close ties with Jesús Méndez Vargas, alias “El Chango Méndez”, founder of La Familia Michoacana, and that they had collaborated with Servando Gómez, “La Tuta”, leader of Los Caballeros Templarios, to coordinate extortions to livestock and lemon producers.
The death of Hipólito Mora, a producer and former self-defense leader, was allegedly the product of the judicial organization, which primarily operates in the southwestern region of the state.
Additionally, the business is accused of using children as human shields during military conflict and of being one of the major contributors to violence in the Hot Land region.
