U.S.-Led Task Force Helped Guide Mexican Raid that Killed El Mencho
A new U.S.-military-led Joint Interagency Task Force-Counter Cartel helped map cartel networks and reportedly provided a detailed target package for Nemesio Oseguera, the CJNG boss known as El Mencho, aiding a Mexican military operation that killed him in Jalisco. Mexican officials say the raid was designed and executed by Mexico with no U.S. ground personnel, while U.S. officials describe the task force as supplying complementary intelligence.
