Overview
- The Senate elected Godoy 97–19 with 11 null ballots after President Claudia Sheinbaum sent an all-woman shortlist of Ernestina Godoy, Luz María Zarza and Maribel Bojorges.
- Godoy immediately moved to reorganize the FGR, naming Héctor Elizalde Mora to lead the Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC) and César Oliveros Aparicio to head the organized crime unit (FEMDO).
- In her confirmation remarks, she vowed no fabrication of suspects, no political persecution and a focus on securing convictions through solid evidence and intelligence analysis.
- Her confirmation drew votes from Morena, PT, PVEM and Movimiento Ciudadano after she accepted MC’s public decálogo of commitments, while opposition lawmakers criticized the rapid process.
- Sheinbaum praised Godoy’s integrity and forecast closer coordination among the FGR, the Security Ministry and the National Guard following Alejandro Gertz Manero’s resignation for a diplomatic post.
