Overview
- Authorities from Mexico City and the State of Mexico say six suspects are now in custody after joint operations that stopped alleged attackers traveling in the victims’ car.
- Initial captures on April 28–29 detained Emiliano N, José María N, María de Jesús N, and Francisco Javier N in Atizapán after officers came under gunfire.
- A judge linked Emiliano N to process on homicide, qualified robbery plus feminicide charges and ordered pretrial detention at Reclusorio Oriente with four months for more investigation.
- State prosecutors are pursuing the Atizapán-based cell known as “Los Julios,” detaining Alexis Ricardo “Lobito” plus Luis Enrique N as alleged planners of a break‑in to steal belongings and property documents.
- A May 1 hotel search in Atizapán recovered items said to belong to the victims, with investigators also alleging a planted note signed “La Unión” was used to mislead the inquiry.
