Viejas Puchadoras

puchadoras viejasThis story from our friends at La Polaka tells us about two matronly types who were arrested in Juarez for retailing small amounts of pot.

Las hermanas Esperanza Salas de 50 años y Celia Salas de 51, fueron capturadas por policías estatales por vender droga en la colonia Bellavista.

Ya tenían tiempo en el negocio de la mariguana, pero no habían sido detenidas porque siempre ocultaban bien la droga cuando los agentes las visitaban para revisar su domicilio.

Fue en una casa de las calles Violetas y Estaño donde los policías irrumpieron con una orden de cateo.

Las mujeres dijeron que eran “puchadoras” porque que no encontraban empleo.

In other words,

The sisters Esperanza Salas, 50 years old, and Celia Salas, 51, were arrested by state police for selling drugs in the Bella Vista neighborhood.

They’ve been in the marijuana business for some time, but they haven’t been arrested because they always hid their drugs well when agents came to search their home.

Police burst into their house near the corner of Violetas and Estaño with a search warrant.

The women said they were “pushers” because the couldn’t find work.

Between the two of them the cops confiscated about a pound of weed and a hundred and fifty bucks.

Sensationalistically, the house is a couple of blocks from the Aliviane rehab center where gunmen killed sixteen residents in 2009.
