i hadn't thought of it that way, probably the same reason they end up being the ringleaders of the cartels. they have the greed and intelligence to go for more while committing savagery, while the average native just wants the basics while committing their savagery to get it. and tenancingo, tlaxcala (there's another tenancingo, state of mexico) is a small town with a population of around 10,000 or more and its known for the sex trafficking industry by the "tenancingo cartel" who collaborate with local crime families and cartel members to control the sex trade typically luring poor and uneducated girls from mexico and central america and colombia too into fake romances and then force them into prostitution. even italian organized crime groups or families it's said are related, but that i don't know. yeah that should be one of the places you shouldn't visit without knowing some locals beforehand, even for mexicans.
