During the early hours of Monday, it was reported that Miguel Angel Felix Gallardoaliases The boss of bosses got the benefit of house arresthowever in the afternoon of the same day the General Prosecutor of the Republic (FGR) contested the decision issued by a federal judge.
The former leader of the Guadalajara Cartel must therefore wait for an agent of the Federal Public Ministry filed an appeal the same day a judge granted house arrest. It should be noted that the authority that granted this option only referred to a sentence of 40 years in prison.
However, another judge still needs to rule on the penalty he faces for the homicide of DEA agent Enrique Kiki Camarena and of Mexican pilot Alfredo Zavala Avelara crime committed in 1985 and for which he was sentenced to 37 years in prison.
The former criminal leader has been imprisoned since 1989, the year he was arrested for the murder of Enrique Camarena, an agent investigating the actions of the Guadalajara Cartel.
It should be remembered that on May 18, a federal judge rejected an injunction promoted by Félix Gallardo when he sought to reduce his sentences, on that occasion the magistrate considered that he should spend 45 more years in prison.
The so-called Chief of Chiefs would serve each of his sentences until the age of 120. The defense wanted the two sentences issued against him to join and form one.
On another occasion, on March 31, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) refused to study the appeal for review to Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo for the collection of firearms and the illegal introduction of cocaine, which was introduced into Mexico to later be sent to the United States.
On that occasion, the SCJN reported:
“This appeal for review is dismissed as inadmissible, by virtue of the fact that the origin requirements referred to in section IX of article 107 of the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States, in force after the constitutional reform published in the Official Gazette, are not met. of the Federation on March 11, 2021, as its resolution was not of exceptional interest in constitutional or human rights matters”, reads the rejection agreement.”
In addition, also at the beginning of the year, in February 2022, a Federal Court refused to protect the Chief of Chiefs. At that time, Magistrates of the Second Collegiate Court in Criminal Matters in Mexico City indicated that the crimes for which he was charged have been proven, so there is no way to modify his legal situation, in addition to not violating any of your rights.
