10 men sentenced for crimes occurred at the Izaguirre Ranch, CJNG training center
After more than 40 testimonies and various material evidence, the 10 men detained at the CJNG training center were found guilty
After a week-long trial, the 10 men arrested by the National Guard in September at the Izaguirre Ranch Izaguirre, located in the state of Jalisco, were found guilty of disappearance of persons and qualified homicide.
The ranch located in the municipality of Teuchitlan is the place where there was allegedly a training camp for organized crime, specifically the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG).
According to Mexican media such as the newspaper El Universal, it is expected that in the next few hours the sentence that the accused will have to serve will be announced, whose identity has only been partially reported by the authorities.
The trial against these detainees began on July 1 and lasted for a week of hearings; In them, more than 40 testimonies and various material evidence were presented.
The official version maintains that members of the National Guard went to the town of La Estanzuela, in Teuchitlan, following a report of detonations.
Upon arrival, they were allegedly attacked with bullets, which led to a confrontation.
The authorities finally took control of the situation and entered the aforementioned ranch, where they arrested the accused, rescued two individuals who were being held hostage, and found the body of another victim.
During the operation, carried out on September 18, 2024, the authorities also located various items of clothing and personal belongings.
Months later, in March 2025, the Guerreros Buscadores collective of Jalisco entered the site again and reported the discovery of charred bone fragments, hundreds of items of clothing, and footwear.
These Evidence raised suspicions that the site could have functioned as an extermination camp, although that hypothesis was later ruled out by the Attorney General's Office (FGR), and it was reported that it was a recruitment and training center for the CJNG.
Regarding the skeletal remains found, the prosecutor admitted that some were found, but denied that they could be considered proof that the ranch was an extermination center.
