The case enters a two‑month investigative phase under preventive detention on the strength of forensic leads.

Overview

  • A State of Mexico judge linked Angélica Irais N., Luis Alberto N., José Luis N. and Jaime N. to process for aggravated homicide, classifying them as alleged cooperators rather than material authors.
  • The four will remain in preventive custody at the Chalco prison while a two‑month complementary investigation runs.
  • Prosecutors cite forensic findings that include saliva matching B‑King on a straw inside a gray Mercedes and evidence the car was altered and repainted at a body shop.
  • The State of Mexico prosecutor’s office says eight people have been detained in total, with local reports indicating four others are tied to extortion lines of inquiry.
  • Investigators are probing possible links to Unión Tepito, while the defense of Jaime N. claims procedural irregularities, scapegoating and outside pressure.
