Rosalinda González Valencia, the wife of Nemesio Oseguera, known as El Mencho, the leader of the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG), must remain in custody at Cefereso 16 in Morelos, a federal judge confirmed.
At the hearing to review the measure, the judge declared his request unfounded, and he will have to remain in prison, reported Proceso.
González Valencia was sentenced in December 2023 to five years in prison for her alleged responsibility in organized crime, with the purpose of committing crimes against health and operations with resources of illicit origin (money laundering).
But in April 2024, a control judge in a hearing held at the Federal Criminal Justice Center, with residence in Xochitepec, Morelos, determined that the Attorney General’s Office (FGR), did not present sufficient evidence in criminal case 254/2023 to prosecute González Valencia, for such crimes.
