Samayoa Recinos offered an interview with Press Libre, in the jail of the Tower of Courts and mentioned some aspects of his life, his beginnings in the world of drugs and responded about his relationship with Guatemalan authorities.
Samayoa said he grew up in Santa Ana Huista, Huehuetenango, and began “doing business” since adolescence.
You tell me that you grew up in Huehuetenango. How was his childhood and where did he study?
I grew up in a humble family, done to everything. We are eight brothers, I am number four. I have four sisters and three brothers, although, unfortunately, two of them died.
I had a cheerful and suffered childhood, because we were poor and suffered from asthma. My mother locked me in the house when I got sick. There was a door and sometimes I approached, but I scold me. What are you doing there, Alejo, get into your bed! My mother shouted at me.
I was about 13 years old when I was in the primary room, the last year I went to school. Every day I had to walk an hour to receive classes; Sometimes I was on horseback.
Our house was on a farm called Rincón Tigre, in Santa Ana Huista, Huehuetenango. It was made of sticks and straw. We all slept in a single room and had no floor; We walked on the earth. On one side we had a humble kitchen.
How was your teenage and how did you start making money?
At 14 I did my first business. I sold a donkey in Q75 and won Q25. I sold it to an uncle. From that moment everything began. I became a merchant and, years later, I began to sell cattle and horses.
A year later I started drinking beer. At 18 I tried the drug for the first time and then marijuana. I remember that we were playing basketball with my friends on a court in Santa Ana Huista and they gave me try. I was very thirsty, but I liked it.
They point out to traffic drugs to the United States. How did you start operating and where?
I am a merchant and there were people who offered me the almost gifted product, so we sold it. Perhaps poverty led one to get involved in all that, but I can’t blame anyone. The situation as a young man is difficult; It has not been easy for me.
The Ministry of the Interior said during a press conference that you were a high -level negotiator. What kind of businesses did?
I am a passive negotiator. I liked to earn the money, but well earned and without betraying people. I think that’s why I’m alive. I have been intelligent and I have been related to everyone. I have never fought with anyone. I am a friend of all: of poor, of rich and of the authorities, always with education.
What kind of relationship do you have with Guatemala politicians?
My world has been of friendship, and I am not angry because they have captured me. It doesn’t bother me. I am not afraid. I’ve never been afraid.
Have you ever thought to be detained and extradited to the United States?
For me it is an achievement and it will be a victory. For me it is an achievement to fulfill that goal of reaching the United States and then recovering my freedom to separate myself from all this.
What were the goals that was proposed and that managed to conclude?
I did many things. I gave my children what I never had and did not let them get into this business; They never participated. At seven I advised that this business is life or death, jail or death. There are only two paths. Getting to my age is a coincidence, a miracle. It is not easy. Most of my friends died, killed them or extradited them to the United States. We were few.
I dream to record a movie or write a book about my life. I don’t want to die without having succeeded.
Was your life in danger? Did they shoot him?
Near, no, but I had to live many things, like the theme of Los Zetas. It was far when that happened. I always liked being away. I have never liked to run a danger without benefit.
What were your businesses in Mexico?
It was with my friends. I never had a relationship with Americans, never. Do you know? Nor did I meet Chapo, Joaquín Guzmán, or Mencho, Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, as some media say.
In Mexico people love me, and at the time I return, I have the doors open.
Some media say I was someone problematic, but no. I am not bloodthirsty. My friends were always loyal. I am from the old school and everyone in their business. We respect. I consider that they have respected me everywhere.
How did they stop where he was?
I was in a shopping center in Tuxtla Gutiérrez in Chiapas, Mexico, a place that frequented. The agents came kindly and told me that he was a good man and that he had to accompany them. They didn’t handcuff me and I thanked them.
And his escorts, he had no bodyguard?
I’ve always walked alone, I never liked it. God walks with me and is in my heart. I have always helped people and football from Huehuetenango.
What kind of help did football teams give in that department?
I helped improve the luggs where they played and I liked to see them play. I supported the stadium on the table. About three years ago I was playing in that place when a military helicopter passed, I thought it was an operation to capture and ran, but it was just a tour of the border.
