A small rural community in the state of Jalisco has been the center of attention in Mexico after a group of volunteers found a property allegedly used by the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG) as a confinement, training and extermination center.

Members of Colectivo Guerreros Buscadores de Jalisco, a private nonprofit that helps find missing persons, alerted Mexican authorities of a ranch located in Teuchitlán after they found burnt human remains hidden underground. Further investigations have revealed that the property could have been the gravesite of hundreds of people, and, according to new testimonies, the place was also used by cartel members for human experiments and ridden with sexual abuse.
