US sanctions leadership of Mexico's Jalisco cartel
The Trump administration on Wednesday imposed economic sanctions on five high-ranking members of Mexico's powerful Jalisco New Generation Cartel for their drug trafficking, while also citing their involvement in killings. Previous administrations have also sanctioned the cartel – one of Mexico's most powerful -- as the Trump administration also did in May, when it targeted the cartel's fuel theft operations. The sanctions freeze any assets the individuals or companies have in the U.S. and prohibit U.S. citizens from doing business with them. 'CJNG's reign of terror across Mexico and its trafficking of fentanyl into the United States has destroyed countless innocent lives,' U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a statement. 'The United States remains strongly committed to leveraging all available tools to degrade the capacity of CJNG and other cartels to flood our streets with dangerous drugs and perpetrate heinous acts of violence against civilians.' In February, the U.S. administration designated Jalisco New Generation as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The cartel is led by Nemesio Rubén 'El Mencho' Oseguera Cervantes and he was among the five leaders named Wednesday. Washington has offered a $15 million reward for information leading to his capture. Two of those sanctioned have been recently connected to high-profile investigations in Mexico. Gonzalo Mendoza Gaytan has been linked to a ranch in Jalisco state where relatives of missing people found hundreds of garments, shoes and other items. Authorities believe the ranch was used by the Jalisco cartel to train recruits. Families of the missing believe recruits who didn't comply were also killed there. Ricardo Ruiz Velasco is a cartel lieutenant affiliated with its special forces unit. The U.S. Treasury said he also handles their propaganda and communications. Ruiz is a suspect in the killing of social media influencer Valeria Márquez, who was allegedly his romantic partner and was killed while on a live video stream in her salon on the outskirts of Guadalajara last month. The other cartel members sanctioned were Julio Alberto Castillo Rodríguez, Oseguera's son-in-law, who allegedly runs the cartel's operations in the Pacific port of Manzanillo, and Audias Flores Silva, a regional commander for the cartel in several Mexican states. ____

Grieving parents want $95m from Texas Roadhouse over tragedy involving drunk-driving Karen
Parents of a 13-year-old boy killed by a drunk driver are seeking $95 million from Texas Roadhouse for the restaurant's alleged role in his death, a court heard. Leonardo 'Leo' Camacho was fatally struck in June 2020 as he helped his father Jose with yard work at Christ Culture Center Church in Cumming, Georgia. Katie Pancione's white SUV careened down the road, hopped the curb and crashed into the young teen, the jury heard, according to The Atlantic Journal-Constitution. Leo's body hurled into the air before landing in the church parking lot. He was taken to a local hospital in critical condition and died three days later. Jose Camacho suffered an ankle injury in the deadly crash, the attorney representing him and his partner Daniela Torres told the court. Camacho and Torres allege Texas Roadhouse is partially responsible for Leo's death because a restaurant bartender served Pancione a pint of Michelob Ultra when she was 'noticeably intoxicated' and knew she was 'likely to drive away' afterwards. Pancione's blood alcohol concentration was three times over Georgia's legal limit at the time of the crash, Camacho family lawyer Dax Lopez said during his opening statement Tuesday. But an attorney for Texas Roadhouse dismissed the allegation, arguing Pancione 'showed no signs of intoxication in the 13 minutes she spent in the restaurant'. Pancione, then 38, arrived at the restaurant at 6:18pm on June 16, 2020. Lopez claims an expert will testify that she likely had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.225 at this point, the Journal reports. She ordered the pint while waiting for her to-go food ordered, with Lopez telling the court that she drank 'most' of the beer while in the restaurant. Pancione left the restaurant around 6:30pm and was reportedly seen 'driving erratically' before the fatal accident, the jury heard. She hit the curb, traveled onto the sidewalk and struck Leo and Camacho at 6:36pm, before fleeing the scene, Lopez said. Pancione, who was going through a divorce at the time, was arrested at her boyfriend's house about three hours later. Her BAC was tested at 9:48pm and was 0.176, well above Georgia's legal limit of 0.08. But Jeremiah Byrne, representing Texas Roadhouse, claims Pancione did not appear to be drunk while at the restaurant. He reportedly showed the jury surveillance camera footage captured during her 13 minutes at the restaurant bar, which he argues proves the bartender on duty did nothing wrong by serving her. Byrne told the court Pancione would have been 'a stumbling, puking drunk' if her BAC was 0.225 when she arrived, as the Camacho family's attorney claimed. Lopez admitted Pancione was 'not falling down drunk' at the restaurant. 'That one light beer didn't cause the accident,' Byrne told the court. 'Katie Pancione did. She was texting and driving.' Pancione pleaded guilty to felony first-degree homicide by vehicle in August 2023 in connection to Leo's death, Forsyth County News reported. She also pled guilty to charges of hit and run involving a death, serious injury by vehicle, and hit and run involving a serious injury. She was sentenced to five years in jail, followed by five years of probation. Pancione previously reached a $2.6 million settlement with Camacho and Torres to end civil claims over her involvement in Leo's death. She is among the witnesses expected to testify in the Texas Roadhouse trial, which is expected to last more than a week.

Film director killed in her home ‘for diamond Rolex'
A film director was killed in her own home in a stabbing police fear may have been carried out in order to steal her diamond Rolex watch. Jennifer Abbott, 69, was found injured at her house in Camden, north London, on June 13. She had last been seen three days earlier, walking her pet corgi. Police have now appealed for witnesses to come forward. Neighbours said Ms Abbott, who was known professionally as Sarah Steinberg, was found with stab wounds after her niece became concerned for her welfare. An ambulance crew was called to her home in Mornington Place at around 6pm on June 13 and she was pronounced dead at the scene. A neighbour, who did not want to be named, said her son went out to help Ms Abbott's niece and the pair made the discovery. Investigators fear she may have been killed for her diamond-encrusted Rolex. Her corgi had been shut in the bathroom for three days but survived. The neighbour said: 'My son broke the door down. She [her niece] said: 'I haven't heard from my auntie in four days. Something's wrong – break the door down'. 'Her corgi was locked in the bathroom for three days. That poor dog, he couldn't even drink any water, it's amazing he was even still alive.' She said her neighbour was 'mysterious, and very smart and intelligent', adding: 'We would chat in the street most of the time. I used to walk around the block with her with her dog,' she said. 'I can't believe we won't see her walking the corgi any more. She was very exuberant, very vivacious. She had done a lot of things in her life. She was a doctor, but she was also an actor and director in America. She'd directed a movie, and I looked at it on YouTube and saw her interviewed in Los Angeles. 'She was a character. She was lovely. You're never going to see her again, and you just can't take it in. I said to my son, 'I can't believe we were sitting here in the living room, maybe watching television, while she was over there going through that and we didn't know.' 'Shopping centre for drugs' Ibeta Rostas, a retired cleaner, has lived on the road for 15 years with her husband Irnest Rostas, 55. She said she had not seen Ms Abbott for a week before she was found. 'Everybody is scared now,' the 56-year-old said. 'Her niece found her. She came here after. 'She had called her many times and didn't answer. She had a bad feeling. She came and with a neighbour, broke the door down.' Mr Rostas, a retired painter, added: 'It is not a safe area here. It is a shopping centre for drugs. 'We see the homeless with the drugs but they are not here now – since the police are here, it has stopped. They would break our door down and sleep downstairs. They would use it as a toilet.' The Metropolitan Police said a post-mortem examination was carried out on Sunday and gave cause of death as sharp force trauma. Chief Supt Jason Stewart said: 'We are working closely with our colleagues in the homicide team to establish exactly what happened and it's incredibly important that we hear from anyone who may have knowledge about how this awful death occurred. 'Were you out in Camden on Friday? Perhaps you had been coming home from work, or at an event nearby? Did you see or hear anything around Mornington Place that struck you as being unusual? Someone must have seen or heard something and no piece of information is too small. It could be the crucial clue that leads us to identify Jennifer's murderer.'
