Mexican Mayor Implicated in Drug Cartel Ranch Inquiry

The mayor faced charges during a Friday hearing, with prosecutors alleging he was part of a cartel linked to criminal activities at a ranch. Despite his denial, a federal prosecutor questioned how someone in charge could be involved. The mayor's secretary testified he wasn't present during the months under scrutiny but acknowledged occasional absences. Additionally, the Trump administration has pressured Mexico on cartel control, raising tensions with the Mexican government.
