Juan Carlos Valencia González
Juan Carlos Valencia González, also known as 'El 03', is recognized as the potential successor to the recently deceased leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, also known as 'El Mencho'. As the stepson of El Mencho, he is considered a natural successor and is currently a target of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), which has offered a reward of up to $5 million for information leading to his capture. His connection to the cartel's leadership and his familial ties place him in a pivotal position within one of Mexico's most powerful criminal organizations.
