The CJNG Capture Two Suspected Female Assassins

Several hitmen from the Jalisco New Generation Cartel have captured two women in Zinapécuaro, Michoacán. Both are alleged to be relatives of an individual who goes by the name of El Primito, a member of a rival cartel.

At this time online chatter point to the women as suspected assassins who successfully executed several hits in their area of operations before their apprehension.

The fate of these women does not seem like it ends well for them. Female captives in the hands of unforgiving goons more than likely will involve rape. A quick death sentence is what normally follows afterwards.

These men work for "El Mencho," a seriously cruel drug lord:



HYPERVIOLENCE Cartel kingpin El Mencho who is even more savage than El Chapo may NEVER be captured, says legendary narco cop

CARTEL kingpin El Mencho is even more brutal than El Chapo and may never be captured as he hunkers down surrounded by a private army protecting his $1billion empire, a legendary narco cop has said.

Mike Vigil, a former Drug Enforcement Agency chief, told The Sun Online that El Mencho's vicious Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) now has an empire more powerful than the once feared El Chapo.



Vigil is one the world's leading experts on Mexican cartels - being the former chief of international operations for the DEA and having gone undercover as an agent in Mexico.

The top cop told The Sun Online that El Mencho has brought a new level violence that marks him out from other drugs kingpins.

“I would describe El Mencho a hyperviolent and extremely cunning but not ostentatious like most drug traffickers," Vigil told The Sun Online.

His rise has been accompanied by a shocking savagery that has been compared to the brutal acts committed by terrorist group ISIS.

It has included ripping out victims' hearts, dissolving their bodies in barrels of acid, publicly hanging enemies, and even targeting pregnant women.

His private criminal security force is seen as even a challenge to the Mexican Army, with ministers having to deny they consider them a danger.

El Mencho is the DEA's number one most wanted criminal - and has an extraordinary bounty of $10million dollars on his head.

Adding Wikipedia:

Nemesio Ruben Oseguera Cervantes (American Spanish: [neˈmesio oseˈɣeɾa seɾˈβantes]; born July 17, 1966, or July 17, 1964), commonly referred to by his alias El Mencho ([el ˈmentʃo]), is a Mexican drug lord and leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), an organized crime group based in Jalisco. He is the most-wanted person in Mexico and one of the most-wanted in the U.S. Both governments are offering up to MXN$30 million and US$10 million, respectively, for information leading to his arrest.

He is wanted for drug trafficking, organized crime involvement, and undocumented possession of firearms. El Mencho is allegedly responsible for coordinating global drug trafficking operations. Under his command, the CJNG became one of Mexico's leading criminal organizations.

Born into poverty in Mexico, El Mencho grew avocados and dropped out of primary school before immigrating illegally to the U.S. in the 1980s. After being arrested several times, he was deported to Mexico in the early 1990s and worked for the Milenio Cartel.[2] He eventually climbed to the top of the criminal organization and founded the CJNG after several of his bosses were arrested or killed.

His notoriety is also a result of his aggressive leadership and sensationalist acts of violence against both rival criminal groups and Mexican security forces alike. These attacks brought him increased government attention and an extensive manhunt. Security forces suspect he is hiding in the rural terrains of Jalisco, Michoacán, Nayarit, and/or Colima, and is guarded by mercenaries with former military training.

In February 2022 unconfirmed reports began to surface stating that El Mencho had died from respiratory arrest while undergoing treatment in a private hospital in Guadalajara.[3]
