Juan Pablo Penilla

lawyer Mexico

Juan Pablo Penilla is an attorney who gained attention in the news due to his association with Ismael 'El Mayo' Zambada, a notorious Mexican drug lord. Recently, the government of Tamaulipas and the national leadership of Morena distanced themselves from Penilla after it was revealed that he was named as Zambada's legal representative in a letter requesting repatriation. Although he was briefly appointed as an honorary advisor to the governor in 2023, this appointment was revoked shortly thereafter, and both the government and Morena officials asserted that he was not connected to their political activities or campaigns.
