On February 22, 2026, Mexico's most wanted man died in a military helicopter — shot, bleeding, and finally caught. Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, "El Mencho," founder of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), was 59. The U.S. had hunted him for over a decade with a $15 million bounty. The Mexican government offered an additional MXN $300 million. Neither money caught him. A woman did. Intelligence traced El Mencho's location through a romantic associate.
