US Sanctions Over 50 Linked to Jalisco Cartel Including New Leader Gonzalez
The US Treasury Department sanctioned over 50 individuals and entities linked to Mexico's Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), including its new leader Juan Carlos Gonzalez, known as "Pelon." Gonzalez assumed control after the death of his stepfather, Nemesio "El Mencho" Oseguera, earlier this year. The sanctions target a broad network involved in drug trafficking, money laundering, and other criminal activities across multiple sectors. The US State Department offers a $5 million reward for information leading to Gonzalez's capture.
