A private nonprofit that helps find missing persons last week alerted Mexican authorities of a ranch located in Teuchitlán, Jalisco, that seemingly served as a confinement, training and extermination center for the Cártel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG). After almost a week of investigations, some of the findings that have been revealed suggest the ranch might have also been the gravesite of hundreds of people.

The discovery was made by members of Colectivo Guerreros Buscadores de Jalisco, who found burnt human remains hidden underground in a remote rural location 36 miles west of Guadalajara. But according to Indira Navarro, leader of Guerreros Buscadores de Jalisco, additional evidence found throughout the ranch suggests hundreds of people were killed there.
