Death of "El Mencho": Rumors of Influencer Involvement

The death of Mexican drug lord Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho,” leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), has sparked reactions and misinformation on social media.

Following the announcement of the 59-year-old's death, rumors began circulating linking him to influencer María Julissa. Claims suggested she was his partner and played a role in leaking information that led to his location. A photo presented as "their last photo together" also circulated.

There is no official confirmation of a relationship between the influencer and the cartel leader. María Julissa has denied the posts, calling them "false" and "fabricated."

El Mencho's death is considered a blow to the CJNG, but analysts warn of potential internal conflicts. The case highlights the spread of unconfirmed information on social media.
