Mexican AG Says There's No Evidence About Infamous Jalisco Ranch Being Used As Human Cremation Site
- In March 2024, authorities revealed that the Izaguirre Ranch in Teuchitlán, Jalisco, functioned as a long-established training and operational center for cartel activities.
- The ranch had been used by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel for recruitment and training since at least 2021, according to federal investigations and Gertz Manero's statements.
- Authorities found human remains, clothes, weapons, and bonfire pits that contained ashes but no evidence of cremations requiring high temperatures necessary to burn bodies at the site.
- Gertz Manero stated there is "not a shred of proof" that human bodies were burned at the ranch and dismissed it as an extermination center, which contrasts with claims from searchers who reported finding crematoria and bones.
- The ranch's exposure sparked national outcry amid Mexico's crisis of disappearances, while the attorney general's conclusions faced criticism from victim advocates demanding fuller investigations.
