'La Chayo' Charged with Arming Jalisco Cartel with Grenades

  • On May 4, 2025, Maria Del Rosario Navarro-Sanchez, a 39-year-old Mexican woman, was arrested in Mexico for allegedly supplying grenades to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel in a U.S. Federal case.
  • The charges follow a January 20, 2021, executive order by President Donald Trump labeling certain Latin American cartels, including CJNG, as foreign terrorist organizations due to their violent international operations.
  • The indictment accuses Navarro-Sanchez of conspiring to smuggle migrants, firearms, money, drugs, and grenades for CJNG, a transnational criminal group active across Mexico and the U.S.
  • U.S. Officials stated Navarro-Sanchez is the first charged under these terrorism-related laws, with FBI Director Kash Patel saying her arrest warns those aiding terrorist groups they will face severe prosecution.
  • This case highlights the U.S. Justice Department's intent to treat cartels as national security threats and intensify efforts to curtail their violent and illicit cross-border activities.
