A drug lord convicted for the 1985 killing of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent Enrique "Kiki" Camarena has been released after serving a 40-year sentence in Mexico despite still being classified as a fugitive by the DEA.
According to the Associated Press, an unnamed federal agent confirmed the release of Ernesto "Don Neto" Fonseca Carrillo late Wednesday. He is one of the founders of the now-defunct Guadalajara Cartel and was convicted for his role in the kidnapping, torture, and murder of both DEA agent Camarena and Mexican pilot Alfredo Zavala.
