U.S. Offers $25 Million Reward for Juan Carlos González, Leader of Jalisco Cartel

The U.S. government has offered a $25 million reward for information leading to the capture of Juan Carlos González, significantly increasing from the previous $5 million.
González, a dual U.S.-Mexican citizen and stepson of the cartel's former leader, has reportedly taken control of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel after the death of Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes.
This initiative is part of a broader strategy that includes newly unsealed charges against five other cartel leaders and recent sanctions against 50 individuals linked to the cartel.
