Following their arrests last week, a Michoacán control judge has linked former Uruapan official Samuel ‘N’ and Josué Eulogio ‘N’ (‘El Viejito’) to trial for the November 2025 murder of Mayor Carlos Manzo, ordering preventive prison amid confessions and betrayal revelations from Manzo's widow, Grecia Quiroz.
Yesenia Méndez Rodríguez, personal secretary to Uruapan's mayor Grecia Quiroz, was detained on January 8 in connection with the homicide of Carlos Manzo, former mayor and ex-husband of Quiroz, which occurred in November 2025. Authorities are probing her potential role in leaking information about Manzo's movements. However, social media posts suggest she may have been released after giving a statement.
