• They were imputed for the crime of asociación delictuosa tied to events in December 2020, and a control judge imposed preventive detention following their initial hearing.
• The defense requested the duplicidad del término, extending the deadline before the court rules on whether to formally link them to the process.
• Prosecutors identify María as a possible successor in the Cártel de Tláhuac’s leadership and Samantha as an alleged financial operator and distributor, roles for which the FGJCDMX had offered 500,000-peso rewards since 2024.
• A man identified as G. M. de O. was also detained during the operation and faces aggravated kidnapping charges before the federal prosecutor, while another daughter, Liliana ‘Lili’ or ‘La Voz’, remains at large.
