About Manuel Torres Félix
José Manuel Torres Félix (Spanish pronunciation: [xoˈse maˈnwel ˈtores ˈfeliɣs]; 28 February 1958 – 13 October 2012), also known as El M1, EL 14, and/or El Ondeado, was a Mexican drug lord and high-ranking leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. Born in a small town in the state of Sinaloa, Torres Félix began working for the Sinaloa Cartel in the 1990s and later ascended to the apex of the cartel after his brother Javier Torres Félix was arrested in 2004. He then began to work with Ovidio Guzmán López, the son of Joaquín Guzmán Loera, Mexico's former most-wanted man, and oversaw drug trafficking shipments coming in from South America into Mexico under the tutelage of Ismael Zambada García. When his son was killed by rival gang members of the Beltrán-Leyva Cartel in 2008, Torres Félix reportedly lost his mind and went on a killing spree, torturing the perpetrators at his home in Culiacán. This earned him the nickname of "El Ondeado" ('The Crazy One') for his emotional instability and explosive personality. Torres Félix was gunned down and killed in a clash with the Mexican Army on 13 October 2012. The PGR offers up to $3 million Mexican pesos for information leading to their arrests. The album sold 100,000 copies and had over 12 million hits on YouTube by March 2012.
