El 31 de agosto de 2010 el pas se despert con una imagen perturbadora: la sonrisa socarrona y cnica que exhiba el narcotraficante dgar Vldez Villareal, alias la Barbie, al ser presentado ante los medios de comunicacin tras su captura. A partir de entonces se desat una serie de suposiciones: era cinismo?, nerviosismo?... Qu secretos guardaba? De qu se rea? La Barbie no es un delincuente que encaje en los estereotipos: de origen estadounidense, joven, amante de la farndula y de la moda, este hombre forma parte de una nueva generacin de narcotraficantes ms refinados y sofisticados, aunque no menos peligrosos. On August 31, 2010, Mexico woke up looking at a disturbing image: the devious and cynic smile of drug dealer Edgar Valdez Villarreal, also known as Barbie, when the media exposed him. As of that moment, a series of speculations were triggered: was it cynicism? Anxiousness? What kind of secrets is he aware of? Barbie is not a criminal that fits the stereotypes: he is a young U.S. citizen, who loves show business and fashion, this man is part of a new generation of more refined and sophisticated drug-lords, a no less evil generation.
