A former associate of Edgar Valdez-Villarreal, "La Barbie," is killed in a Nuevo Laredo prison.
An inmate in a Nuevo Laredo prison stabbed Jose Luis Carrizales-Coronado to death.
Authorities say a federal judge released Coronado from a prison in Monterrey on Monday claiming a lack of evidence in a case.
He came back to Nuevo Laredo and was arrested for previous murder charges.
Officials say he started a fight with other inmates in the bathroom, where they beat and stabbed him.
According to Mexican authorities, Coronado was an associate of Edgar Valdez-Villarreal back in 2003.
