11 Adults From San Pedro Clandestine Teen Party Ordered to Stand Trial, Put on Home Confinement for Alleged Drug Dealing

Authorities probe a recruitment network that uses a Prepa Tec student as a lure, with reports pointing to hired bodyguards.

Overview

  • Nuevo León’s attorney general said the 11 detainees were linked to process for narcomenudeo and must remain under home confinement as the case proceeds.
  • Police intervened late Saturday at a San Patricio residence, where they found between 350 and 400 minors, many appearing intoxicated and unable to contact their families.
  • Officers seized dozens of alcohol bottles, suspected drug doses, a 9mm handgun, radios, scales, ballistic helmets and more than 100,000 pesos in cash.
  • The security chief in San Pedro described a modus operandi in which invitations originate from a Prepa Tec student, and organizers push alcohol consumption from entry.
  • Sources cited by local media reported the adults facing proceedings are bodyguards hired by an organizer’s security chief, as prosecutors keep open lines of inquiry into financing and the origin and destination of the seized items.
