The DEA-led operation, called 'Project Python,' led to more than 750 arrests and is the largest to date in US efforts to take down the notorious cartel known for brutal kidnappings and murders in Mexico.
“They are one of the most prolific drug traffickers, trafficking organizations in the world," he continued."They have over 100 methamphetamine labs in Mexico, and this country is being flooded with methamphetamine.”
The undisputed boss of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as “El Mencho," is charged with conspiracy to distribute cocaine and methamphetamine in the U.S. and is considered one of law enforcement’s most wanted fugitives. The DEA has a $10 million reward for information leading to his arrest.
The announcements come several weeks after prosecutors brought charges against two of Oseguera Cervantes’ children.
