PemexZetasTexas Scandal–The Undercover Aggie


Turns out Josh Crescenzi, former Texas A&M slow-foot sprinter and Bush/Cheney insider,  who was allegedly up to his neck in the PemexZetasTexas petro theft operation cut a deal with US ICE agents and surreptitiously recorded hours of conversations with fellow Texas  oil men involved in the multimillion dollar illicit trafficking ring.

Crescenzi is a former press advance representative for Bush and Cheney. They are not implicated in the case, but those familiar with Crescenzi said he was known to brag about his connections to further his business interests.

Crescenzi most recently supervised operations in the Rio Grande Valley for Continental Fuels. He resigned in May while cooperating with the feds and has not commented publicly. No charges have been filed against him.

Crescenzi will probably be spared the terminal wrath the Zetas  usually  mete out to  “cooperative witnesses” south of the US border.  It wouldn’t be prudent. Besides the Zetas don’t have anything to lose in this. They aren’t likely to have their accounts seized like those of their Texas buyers.  Zetas/La Compania’s lucrative take from the operation has likely long since been laundered and “banked” elsewhere.

San Antonio Express-News reporter Guillermo Contreras delivers the story here.

  3. A petroleum companies has been illegal extracting substance of gases for several years, to the current dates and these are transferred to their main system pipeline with paying royalties to the rightful proprietors of which I am one. Unfortunately, the Railroad Commission of the State of Texas who probably is unaware of said activity.

    For several years we have researched and tried it on with having committed various violations including by height level authority, by the State of Texas and been cover-up this investigation. On the letter to the witness the Geologist that I know him for more then 10 years, that he and according to other persona that know him he practice as geologist without license he been working with another geologist licenses. Reason that he never been involve and cover-up by (attorney’s) and other highs level authority and he been doing transgression with this company of Mexico (Pemex)

      Hey, John. thanks for commenting. Why don’t you set the record straight, from your perspective, and explain what’s “bullshit” here–”all” of it, really? It would be helpful to know more so corrections can be made.
