Sonora Opens Probe Into Viral Video Allegedly Showing Natanael Cano Performing Inside Hermosillo Prison

State authorities plan action pending verification of the viral clip’s authenticity.

Overview

  • The Sonora prosecutor and the state public security ministry said they are verifying a short video that purportedly shows the singer performing inside Cereso No. 1 in Hermosillo.
  • The Public Security Secretariat opened an internal review and stated the footage likely dates to January 2025, but its authenticity remains unconfirmed.
  • Governor Alfonso Durazo said all applicable sanctions will be applied if the performance inside the prison is confirmed.
  • Reports describe a roughly 15‑second clip recorded in what appears to be a cell, showing a man resembling Cano singing with a guitar as people consume alcohol.
  • Unofficial accounts link the gathering to inmate Francisco Alejandro “El Terry,” while officials note the former penitentiary coordinator tied to separate escape-related proceedings no longer works for the security ministry; Cano also faces an earlier bribery case from 2024.
