Jovita Vargas

Jovita Vargas is a judge whose recent actions have drawn the ire of the Attorney General's Office in Mexico. She was accused by Attorney General Alejandro Gertz of providing 'scandalous protection' to former Michoacán Governor Silvano Aureoles, specifically regarding a delayed court appearance scheduled for August 2025. However, it has been noted that the scheduling was not her decision but that of another judge, raising questions about the accountability and communication within the judicial system.
