Overview
- Mexico’s aviation authority closed the case in 2014, citing probable loss of control from a fatigued screw in the horizontal stabilizer, and authorities confirmed all seven victims were identified.
- Lupillo Rivera shared previously unseen images from the day the family received Jenni Rivera’s remains, describing a private handover, a small urn, and a brief ceremony in San Nicolás, Nuevo León.
- In his new book and recent appearances, Lupillo recounts recordings he says suggested pressure for the aircraft to depart and says he feels his sister was killed, while acknowledging he cannot prove a crime.
- He also recalls contacting criminal leaders in the chaotic hours after the plane vanished to ask for information, a step he says reflected the uncertainty before the crash was confirmed.
- The family released La Gran Señora – Banda as a commemorative album, while a viral TikTok alleging Jenni is alive was reported by news outlets as unsubstantiated and unsupported by evidence.
