""In the short term, I do think that things will grow more violent. In the past, when one cartel seemed weak, other cartels tried to encroach upon their territory.""
""It's like that saying - If you cut the head of a serpent, then more heads will grow. The main hope is that there's a smooth transition of power.""
The death of Nemesio Rubén 'El Mencho' Oseguera Cervantes, leader of the Jalisco New Generation cartel, led to violent retaliation across Mexico, resulting in blocked highways and numerous fatalities. Families in Los Angeles, with connections to Jalisco, are anxious about the escalating violence and potential power struggles among rival cartels. Many worry about the safety of relatives in Mexico and the implications of U.S. immigration policies. The situation has created a climate of fear and uncertainty, reminiscent of past cartel conflicts.
