I think the doctor was foolish thinking that he could control the group by having a 'common goal'.
1. Most of the people that got together to form the group were not high quality people. Not strong ethical and moral compasses.I'm saying that when you're heading your force, you should right away get a clear command and control structure enforced. And have people with some experience in law enforcement or the military or even in civilian administration part of the higher echelon to put processes and systems in place. The fact he didn't was just stupid. Otherwise if you havr just bunch of young guys roaming around with guns, they are gonna run around and abuse their power.
2. The doctor have had to know he would've had to negotiate with the government. He should've negotiated a good deal for himself where he could continue his work with the government's sanction and reached a high government post.
3. The fact that anyone could become a vigilante was messed up. I understand the need to get men, who can guard, patrol and fight. But without a screening process or even you wanted to induct former cartel guys, they should've been to apologize. And strict discipline in terms of a regular police or military should've been enforced.
4. The fact is that in a situation, like he was, ppl usually have two options, to have a 'purge' or go after key members and eliminate them through judicial or extra-judicial means- I know this sounds like horror to most ears but when your society is going through such turbulence, you need to adopt drastic measures such as curfew at night to targeted killing of cartel guys. You need to show who the boss is. And drug or gang activity won't be tolerated. Also not misuse or corruption internally.
5. He also should've delivered a higher message to his populace. To build a better future and stuff. He didn't come across as very smart leaving his org under questionable hands.
