Kidnapping is big business south of the border and like a lot of things, it's moving north. From the limited details in the link, this abduction was apparently an attempt to collect on a debt..... and not even the victim's debt, they actually were looking for his brother who apparently owed them. (Just because
you don't owe some gangsters doesn't mean you're safe.)
There was a claim made that the kidnappers were affiliated with the Gulf Cartel, and in the booking photos, one of the folks arrested has a lot of Tango Blast ink, so we can safely assume gang affiliation here.
The cops were brought in, and then the FBI, and they tracked the kidnappers down, kicked the door, and.......
an FBI agent shot the victim to death on accident.
So much for being rescued by the authorities.
I took a 2 day counter custody/anti-abduction course

last year, and found the information to be fascinating, as well as useful. I pass along a lot of what I learned to some of my students.
I haven't been to one, but I hear very good things about this course;

It would be worth your time to look into a course like this, this stuff is not going away, and counting on someone else to come save you is a pretty ineffective solution.
Be your own rescuer.
