Jalisco Takes Control of Suspected Cremation Site Found by Search Groups

Officials warn that confirmation hinges on forensic results.

Overview

  • Search collectives say they found a large property Sunday in Lagos de Moreno with at least 15 burn sites, scorched bone fragments, and fresh smoke.
  • State and federal teams have secured the area and begun forensic processing, and the government says it cannot yet call the property a clandestine crematory.
  • Forensic staff report bones show direct fire damage that hinders DNA profiling, which is likely to slow identifications.
  • In a separate probe in El Salto near Guadalajara’s airport, work since late April has uncovered about 60 bags of human remains and three bodies.
  • Teams at El Salto logged two recovered IDs with names, and search groups are seeking additional warrants to examine more nearby locations.
