Nearly a dozen Sinaloa state officials have been accused by U.S. authorities of having ties to drug trafficking organizations such as the Sinaloa cartel. Among those named is Sinaloa Gov. Rubén Rocha Moya, who in his first public appearance since the allegations surfaced said he and his team remain "relaxed" despite the magnitude of the claims.
"We are calm, working for Sinaloa. Nothing is going to happen. Everything must proceed in accordance with the law," Rocha Moya said April 29.
