Laisha Oseguera, 'El Mencho's Daughter, Operates Cafe in California Amid CJNG Family Ties

Picha iliyoundwa na AI

Laisha Michelle Oseguera, 24-year-old youngest daughter of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes ('El Mencho'), leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG) who died in February 2026, is linked to El Rincón de la Chulis cafe in Perris, California. Her husband serves an 11-year sentence for CJNG-related money laundering, while she maintains a low profile post-father's death.

Laisha Michelle Oseguera, daughter of 'El Mencho' and Rosalinda González Valencia (alias 'La Jefa'), born around 2001, has kept a low profile despite ties to one of Mexico's most powerful drug cartels. According to New York Post reports, she operates El Rincón de la Chulis at 802 Navajo Rd, suite J, Perris, California—a venue opened in 2018 with a sand-colored facade, simple decor featuring wooden tables, black sofas, and walls with Spanish phrases like 'El amor puede esperar, pero la comida no.'

The cafe offers Mexican dishes including chilaquiles ($17), mole tortas, basket tacos, crepes, and a $39 combo with fruit cocktail, crepes, juices, tacos, and torta. Drinks include horchata lattes ($7.50), espresso ($2.80 small to $3.50 large), and hot chocolate ($4.99 to $7.99). Hours are Monday-Thursday and Saturday 6 a.m.-3 p.m., Friday 6 a.m.-6 p.m., Sunday 7 a.m.-3 p.m. Customers praise the service and normal atmosphere on Google Maps, though some note high prices; many are unaware of the owner's cartel links and report not seeing her since 'El Mencho's death in a Tapalpa, Jalisco operation on February 22, 2026. She attended his wake in Zapopan that month.

Laisha's direct CJNG involvement remains unconfirmed, and the cafe faces no U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctions. In 2021, Mexican authorities accused her of orchestrating the kidnapping of two marines in Jalisco to pressure for her mother's release; the marines were freed in Zapopan. Her sister, Jessica Johanna Oseguera ('La Negra'), lives in the U.S. after a money laundering sentence and previously ran a sushi restaurant called Kenzo.

Laisha is married to Cristian Fernando Gutiérrez Ochoa (alias 'El Guacho'), 28, arrested in November 2024 in Riverside, California. He faked his death to flee to the U.S. under a false identity and was sentenced in 2025 to 11 years for money laundering. Authorities accuse him of coordinating transport of 40,000 kg of methamphetamine and the marines' kidnapping; he admitted possessing $2.2 million in cash and untraceable firearms.

Discussions on X focus on the irony of Laisha Oseguera, El Mencho's daughter, running a seemingly normal cafe in California amid her family's CJNG ties. Users share reports of positive customer experiences, no evident criminal activity at the business, and her absence since her father's death, with some expressing skepticism about the family's separation from cartel legacy.

Mexican security forces killed Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias 'El Mencho', leader of the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), in an operation in Tapalpa, Jalisco. Tracking his romantic partner led to his location in a facility linked to money laundering. His death has sparked speculation about the cartel's successor and denials of social media rumors.

Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as 'El Mencho' and leader of the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), died on February 22, 2026, during a federal operation in Tapalpa, Jalisco. The confrontation took place in a cabin at the Tapalpa Country Club complex, where evidence of his presence was found, including medications and a religious altar.

The leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias 'El Mencho', was killed on February 22, 2026, in Tapalpa, Jalisco, by Mexican forces with U.S. intelligence support, triggering a surge of violence across at least 20 states. The cartel's response included 85 road blockades, vehicle burnings, and attacks that killed 25 National Guard members, 30 CJNG affiliates, and other civilians.

Mexican authorities have returned the body of notorious cartel boss Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho, to his family following genetic confirmation. The leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel was killed in a military operation last week, sparking widespread violence. The handover comes amid heightened U.S.-Mexico cooperation against cartels.

Mexican authorities killed Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho and leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), on February 22, 2026, in Tapalpa, Jalisco.

A shooting at a restaurant in Mexico City's Zona Rosa on December 21, 2025, left one man dead and another injured, with suspicions that the fatality is Óscar Noé Medina, alias 'El Panu', right-hand man of Iván Archivaldo Guzmán of Los Chapitos. Authorities are investigating without confirming the identity yet, as the incident highlights the growing weakness of the Sinaloa Cartel faction. Two of El Chapo's sons have recently pleaded guilty in the US.
