Teuchitlan, Jalisco case federal ministerial report

The Attorney General’s Office reported that it was not immediately notified of the crimes of possession and use of large-caliber firearms and organized crime

It is an unwavering institutional obligation to analyze and evaluate any local investigation file that is intended to be transferred to the federal level for its resolution. Therefore, such an evaluation was made and these are the initial results:

The prosecutorial diligences of common jurisdiction that were made in this case, in September and October of last year, did not involve the tracing of evidence concerning the events in question.
The proper registration and identification of everything found at the scene was not carried out, especially with regard to the clothing and footwear left there.
The vehicles found were not duly processed, three of which have already been stolen.
The Federal Attorney General’s Office was not immediately notified concerning the crimes of possession and use of high caliber firearms and organized crime.
The total and exhaustive inspection of the site was not carried out.
The immediate identification of fingerprints was not ordered.
Six months later, the forensic services of the state of Jalisco still do not have a definitive report establishing with precision the age and identity of the remains found, nor do they have the physical and chemical analyses that directly link the various ditches at the site with the possibility of crematory activities that must have been subjected to temperatures between 800 and 1,200 degrees Celsius, which must necessarily leave the corresponding evidence.
The links, cover-ups, and co-participations of local authorities with the criminal cartels that operate in that region have not been established with full precision, even though several individuals kidnapped at that property have already made allegations to that effect; and, in one case, members of the Tala police, close to the site, headed by their Chief, operated in such a fashion, and one of them is already in custody. Declarations with similar content have been found in local files, which were not incorporated into the investigation of this case.
Follow up was also not provided to the statement of one of the victims that the clothes found at the site belonged to the individuals who the criminals had recruited and trained in that place, and, therefore, they had left their clothes in order to receive the apparel and equipment required in accordance with the tactical characteristics of that criminal cartel. In this regard, IDs recently found there correspond to hitmen of criminal cartels who have already been arrested in other states.
Following the local ministerial proceedings, this property was practically left in a state of abandonment and without any protection, even though it was secured by the local Public Prosecutor’s Office.
The background and current ownership or possession of the property was not immediately identified either.
No immediate statement was taken from the Municipal President, the General Secretary, or the Secretary of Public Security of the Municipality of Teuchitlán, regarding their crime prevention obligations.
No testimonial statements were taken from neighbors or persons possibly tied to the events.
In view of the above considerations, the state authorities have been requested to urgently deliver their definitive expert reports and all their actions related to this case to the Federal Attorney General’s Office, so that the latter can take whatever measures may be appropriate.
