A Mexican drug cartel leader, Jesus Ricardo Patron Sanchez, has been extradited from Mexico to New York City to face federal charges related to drug trafficking. Sanchez, also known as 'Diobolical,' 'Xmen,' and 'James Bond,' was the alleged head of the H-2 drug cartel, described as 'brutally violent.'
The H-2 drug trafficking organization, originating from the Sinaloa drug cartel, operated out of Nayarit and Sinaloa, Mexico. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has highlighted the significant role of cartels like Sinaloa and Jalisco in the ongoing drug crisis in the U.S., with the flow of fentanyl and methamphetamine across the border.
