Mexico's most wanted drug lord, who eluded countless police raids, has
died reportedly from plastic surgery to alter his appearance, the U.S.
Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) said Sunday. Mexican authorities
acknowledged Saturday the "probable death of the drug trafficker Amado
Carrillo Fuentes" but said they needed more tests to confirm the
identity of a man who died after plastic surgery and liposuction
Friday in a Mexico City clinic. Carrillo Fuentes was nicknamed "The
Lord of the Skies" for his ability to fly jetloads of cocaine across
Mexico for smuggling into the U.S. For the full text story, see

and if he's not, his plan worked wonderfully.
