- She explained that detainees without a Mexican arrest warrant are typically deported, while those with pending cases follow the full extradition process.
- The Wall Street Journal previously reported discussions about a possible third transfer of Mexican drug chiefs to U.S. custody, a claim not confirmed by Mexico.
