Sinaloa Cartel Trafficker 'La Comadre' Sentenced to 22 Years in US Prison

"Socalj" for Borderland Beat

In addition to the 22 year prison sentence, Luz Irene Fajardo Campos was also ordered to serve five years of supervised release and forfeit $18 million.

A Mexican national was sentenced today in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia to 22 years in prison for her role in an international drug trafficking conspiracy to transport into the United States thousands of kilograms of cocaine and dozens of pounds of methamphetamine.

Following a seven-day jury trial in December 2019, Luz Irene Fajardo Campos, aka “La Comadre,” “La Madrina” and “La Doña,” 57, of Culiacan, Mexico, was convicted of conspiracy to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine, and to manufacture and/or distribute 500 grams or more of methamphetamine in Mexico, Colombia, Honduras and elsewhere, knowing or intending that these substances would be unlawfully imported into the United States as reported by Borderland Beat.

According to the evidence introduced at trial, Fajardo Campos led a drug trafficking organization with her adult children that were aligned with the Sinaloa cartel. She sourced cocaine directly from Colombia, employed pilots, and brokered the purchase of jets to fly the cocaine to Central America and Mexico. She partnered with other traffickers in the Sinaloa cartel and her children for further distribution of the cocaine into the United States. She also oversaw the importation of precursor chemicals into Mexico, which she processed into methamphetamine at a laboratory located in the desert outside Hermosillo, Mexico. She distributed this methamphetamine in Tucson, Arizona, and Jackson, Mississippi, among other locations.

She also paid bribes to law enforcement officials in Mexico and Colombia to import cocaine through an international airport and attempted to bribe other public officials to secure the arrest of rival drug traffickers and the release of precursor chemicals seized at Mexican shipping ports.

“Luz Irene Fajardo Campos and her organization imported into the United States large quantities of cocaine and methamphetamine, bribing foreign law enforcement officers along the way, and then distributed those drugs across our communities,” said Assistant Attorney General Kenneth A. Polite Jr. of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. “Her conviction and sentence demonstrate the department’s commitment to bring to justice those who pump dangerous drugs into our communities and fuel corruption in the process.”

“With this sentencing, we cut the head off of the snake,” said Special Agent in Charge Cheri Oz of the Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA) Phoenix Field Division. “Drug traffickers like Fajardo Campos tear at the very fabric of our communities. She made millions of dollars from pushing thousands of pounds of poison into Americans' communities while at the same time fueling violence and crime across the United States. Today, justice was served.”

In addition to the prison sentence, Fajardo Campos was also ordered to serve five years of supervised release and forfeit $18 million.

  1. How many others are there doing the same thing? Many hidden figures who are above her still reap the rewards of drug consumption.
    Yes, justice was served but by far too little to stem the flow of narcotics.

    1. It's a sham dude! The WoD wittingly pushes the profits up (which are reaped by a select few) and the (human) costs as well (which are paid by the many).

    3. Yes, common rhetoric with these types of press conferances/announcements. But this has no relation to Emma. La Comadre was arrested in 2016, convicted 2 years ago and sentenced now

  12. You’re like the 50th CJNG fan boy that says this exact same thing yet I don’t think I’ve seen anyone say there isn’t infighting just that it’s between cells and not the leaders which is true. Ninis and all the culiacan groups from both factions are still cool with each other

  14. 9:21 than you must be blind, before BB were posting the infight a lot of cds cheer leaders said ot wasnt happening 🤣🤣🤣 and now you are saying the bosses are cool? Look here my dude its well know that sinaloa government is working with both cds factions, the reason why they havent gone to war in culiacan is to not heat up the plaza but wait a little longer and a little spark its gonna cause a huge fire, you heard it here first 😉

  16. 1103 The truth is these are not the leaders these are PERSONAL problems that go way back years and years but you don’t know that because you’re a pocho that learns every thing he knows through the internet 😆 ninis y rusos same thing PERSONAL problems that the bosses told them to handle by themselves. Problems like this in CDS have happened since the 90s, but there was no internet for you to stick your nose in other people’s business 😆🤣pinché Juan gabrielona CHISMOSA siguiendo paginas de viejas de culiacan 😂😂no es negocio tuyo wey mejor sigue las paginas de las indias michoacanas o de los transvestis de jalisco, pinché cara de 🐵 🐒😂😂🤣
