FGR Searches Fausto Corrales' Home, Missing Witness in Hector Cuen's Death & Relative of Recently Killed Cartel Members
On Saturday morning, elements of the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) and the Mexican Army executed a search warrant at the home of Fausto Ernesto Corrales Rodríguez, the key witness in the murder of Héctor Melesio Cuén Ojeda, former rector of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS), former mayor of Culiacan tied to the kidnapping and arrest of “El Mayo” last month.
Fausto Corrales has been missing since July 25, the FGR has not been able to locate him since the night of the murder when he provided his statement to Sinaloan authorities as to what had happened.

The meeting was set supposedly to help mediate a political rivalry between Héctor Melesio Cuén Ojeda and Governor Ruben Rocha Moya. After Cuen’s body was brought to the hospital Fausto Corrales told the state prosecutor that he had been Cuén Ojeda’s driver that day to take him to a meeting with “lawyers,” who did not attend.

Deputy Sinaloa Prosecutor Claims No Irregularities
Deputy Attorney General Dámaso Castro Saavedra said there was no irregularity in the preparation of the investigation file for the murder of Héctor Melesio Cuén Ojeda.
“As far as I’m concerned, as far as what I’ve done, yes (I’m calm), everyone who worked on the file is responsible and knows what they have to do,” he said.
He mentioned that the gas station version was always said to be the witness’s version.
One of the functions of the Prosecutor’s Office, he mentioned, is to confirm or discard versions and that one would possibly be discarded because they were obtaining information that did not match that of the witness.
“What we had at that time was a report of a person who had died and then we started the investigation file with the information we had,” he said. Beyond the allegations mentioned in the FGR statement, I do not see any irregularities, he indicated.
Federal agents pointed out 10 inaccuracies in the local Sinaloa investigation folder after experts and analysts from the Criminal Investigation Agency (AIC) and FGR analyzed it. They concluded that the autopsy does not correctly establish the immediate cadaveric signs, temperature, thanatological signs, lividity, nor the correct description and evolution of the body.

The Sinaloa Party has recently seen some additional attention as well due to several murders occurring in the aftermath of the betrayal, kidnapping and US arrest of “El Mayo.”
Sinaloa Political Party Connected Murders
Hector Cuen Ojeda founded the Sinaloa Party (PAS) in 2012 and was its President until he was named by Governor Rocha in 2021 as Secretary of Health, which he was dismissed from earlier this year. His replacement as head of the political party was Víctor Antonio Corrales, the father of the key witness to Cuen’s death.

Cuen’s mysterious death following the kidnapping and US arrest of “El Mayo,” hasn’t been the only death connected to the political party and possibly the events of that day.

“We deeply regret the passing of: José Ricardo García Corrales and Martín García Corrales, brothers of our president and friend Sonia Estela García Corrales,” the statement said.
Martin Garcia Corrales was the brother of Leobardo Garcia Corrales. According to the US Treasury OFAC, both Mexican nationals and associates of Los Chapitos, are large-scale methamphetamine and fentanyl manufacturers in Sinaloa, Mexico. The US State Department was offering a $4 million reward for information leading to the capture of “El Tano.”
The brothers negotiated the sale of illicit fentanyl in the United States and operate fentanyl labs in Oaxaca, Mexico. They used the proceeds from fentanyl sales to purchase automatic rifles, grenades, and other weapons. Both are known associates of Joaquin Archivaldo “El Chapo” Guzman Loera and “El Mayo”.
Martin worked under his brother Leobardo Garcia Corrales who is considered a high-ranking member of the Sinaloa Cartel. “Don Leoba” is described by the US government as a key operator for Ivan and Jesus Alfredo Guzman Salazar, who liked to brag about his closeness with the leaders of Los Chapitos.
Fentanyl for Weapons Deal
Also known as “El Tano” or “Cachuchas,” Martin Garcia Corrales was one of the most wanted in the United States for trafficking fentanyl for the Sinaloa Cartel and it is believed that he had protection from political relatives, members the PAS.
“El Tano” was also unofficially identified as the brother of Luis Alonso García Corrales, a former candidate for councilor in Culiacán for the PAS. In the records of the State Executive Committee of the PAS, Luis Alonso appears as “Secretary of Organization.”
Three days later, the governor of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha Moya, confirmed that Luis Alonso García Corrales and Francisco Cerón Beltrán had been found alive. However, he did not disclose the cause of their disappearance.
Through a press conference, the founder of the political organization presented a video that exposes the moment in which García Corrales and one of his collaborators, Juan Francisco Cerón Beltrán , were intercepted by alleged elements of the Municipal Police on the morning of April 13, 2024.
When searching for information on García Corrales and Cerón Beltrán in the National Registry of Arrests (RND), no record appears that identifies them as arrested, so the conditions under which the apparent elements of the Municipal Police stopped them are unknown.
The PAS candidate and Francisco Cerón, were found alive after three days of searching. During a press conference, PAS founder Héctor Cuén Ojeda revealed a series of videos that the organization obtained as part of the investigation they were conducting outside of the Sinaloan authorities. The videos showed a red and black Ford Mustang car that, as previously reported, was seemingly watching Luis García’s home minutes before his disappearance.
At 7:55 a.m. the alleged municipal elements let them go and 15 minutes later, Luis Alonso’s phone went off.
When the police vehicle stopped them, the Ford Mustang that had previously been parked at the candidate’s house passed by and momentarily stopped. Cuén cited this as an indicator of its possible connection to the disappearance.
