Jalisco New Generation Cartel

The Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) is a powerful and highly organized criminal group based in Mexico. Emerging in the early 2010s, it has become one of the country’s most influential drug trafficking organizations, involved in the production and distribution of various illegal drugs, particularly methamphetamine and cocaine. The CJNG is known for its extreme violence and confrontations with rival gangs and government authorities. It operates not only in Mexico but also has connections and reach in the United States and beyond, posing significant challenges to law enforcement and contributing to ongoing issues related to drug-related crime and violence.
