"Boludo, I am a businessman. I have permission for everything. Now I go to my businesses, all legal,"
Javier "El Rengo" Pacheco (47)
tells
his drug supplier in
a wiretap taken three months ago
.
Then he laughs out loud and starts listing what those "businesses" are: a 25-truck combi company, tourist complexes, soda distributors, and
even the construction of a private neighborhood.
The same - the story of the "construction businessman" - repeated "El Rengo" to a television channel over the weekend.
And incidentally, he denied having anything to do with drug trafficking in San Martín and with the violent death of a policeman, including a mobster message.
However, hours of conversations
incriminate him
.
"The first money I made I spent on buying a house outside the neighborhood and taking my whole family with me. My son was three months old when I took him out. I was all in a cast: he had gotten out of prison and we went to steal an armored car ... a disaster, there I was lame, from a bullet, "
recalls Pacheco in the conversation with his supplier.
The bullet in the leg left him on crutches and without operational capacity.
So he
changed the category
: "I put a little place of pills, Rohypnol sold. I grabbed faso and continued with the other thing (it is supposed that it talks about cocaine). Now I don't give the little one anything.
I'm not for the little one
."
The arrest of "Rengo" Pacheco.
The telephone dialogue took place on May 1 last and was duly registered by the Federal Police, which was investigating it in a case under the charge of the federal judge of San Martín Alicia Vence.
After the arrest of Pacheco, at the end of May, by order of the federal judge of Morón Jorge Rodríguez - who was also leading a case against him - all the wiretaps of the Federal became part of the file that Rodríguez was working with the police of Drug trafficking of Ezeiza, of the Buenos Aires Police.
The talks were key to his
prosecution
, which Judge Rodríguez signed on Sunday.
In addition, they blocked an embargo of
100 million pesos
for "Rengo", 100 million for his son Nicolás, 50 million for Albornoz and 50 for Short.
As requested by the prosecutor Mariela Labozzetta Pacheco, he was prosecuted for the crime of
"possession of drugs for commercial purposes, in an organized manner
.
"
He as boss and financier, plus the crime of
"money laundering from an illegal activity
.
"
Nicolás Javier Albornoz, son of "Rengo" Pachecho, detained at his home in Ituzaingó.
With "El Rengo" she fell half his clan: his wife Cristina Albornoz (47), the son of both- Nicolas Albornoz (26) - and his former partner, Ramona Lujan Short (41) whom the Federal took her
hear spicier and more revealing
of the case.
One of these telephone interceptions led investigators to review what happened in case 2776/2018 opened for the seizure of
seven tons of marijuana
and 55 kilos of buds that occurred on July 27, 2018 in a warehouse in Moreno.
In that file, Nicolás, Pacheco's son, was investigated, who now also fell with him in the Morón case.
According to Ramona Lujan Short, "El Rengo" paid
a bribe of one and a half million pesos
so that Nicolás would be disengaged from that cause.
"He fixes everything like he fixed the thing with the kid, who put a stick and a half and got the best of the quilombo he had," Short tells a friend on the phone.
Cars at the house of Nicolás Javier Albornoz, son of "Rengo" Pachecho, in Ituzaingó.
According to Rengo's former partner, that 2018 cause - which happened very close to Nicolás and also to him (in which both would have been left with "lack of merit") - plunged him even further into cocaine use.
"Do you know how it was? I'm sure it was like this, boluda: Because of the shed and the guacho. This is born from the shed and if it is born from the shed it is because they continued investigating the quilombo that he had, they continued investigating the kid, boluda .. It's like that, "Short tells a friend in a conversation taken on March 13, 2019.
As "El Rengo" feared, the shed and the seven tons of marijuana ended up being a problem: now Judge Rodriguez reversed the "lack of merit" and prosecuted both him and his son Nicolás for that fact.
The "Rengo" Pacheco had built a toy house to hide the access to his bunker.
After being for decades the strong man of Villa 9 de Julio, San Martin, without anyone dared to touch a hair, Javier "El Rengo" Pacheco seems to have changed his luck.
They even found him the bunker that he had built with so much care and concrete under a toy house in his garden.
