How was Ernesto Fonseca Carrillo caught?

Ernesto Fonseca Carrillo, also known as “Don Neto,” was a Mexican drug lord and co-founder of the Guadalajara cartel.

He was arrested by Mexican authorities in 1978, following a series of investigations and operations against the cartel.

The process of catching Fonseca Carrillo was complex and involved multiple agencies and jurisdictions.

It is believed that the investigation into the Guadalajara cartel was led by the Federal Security Directorate, a now-defunct Mexican intelligence agency, in conjunction with the Federal Judicial Police and the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

The investigation into the Guadalajara cartel was sparked by the murder of DEA agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena in 1985.

Camarena’s death led to a series of high-profile operations against the cartel, including the capture of Fonseca Carrillo and other key members of the organization.

It is not clear exactly how Fonseca Carrillo was caught, as details of the operation have not been publicly disclosed.

However, he was likely apprehended through a combination of intelligence gathering, surveillance, and cooperation with law enforcement agencies in both Mexico and the United States.

Fonseca Carrillo was arrested in Mexico in 1978 and was later sentenced to 40 years in prison.

However, Fonseca was transferred from prison to house arrest in July 2016, because of his old age and declining health, with about nine years remaining on his 40-year sentence.
