Authorities in the State of Mexico —the most populous entity in the country— say the introduction of a new cartel has contributed to the high levels of crime experienced in the state in the last two years.
Concretely, officials are talking about the Caborca Cartel, once led by Rafael Caro Quintero alias "El Narco de narcos," one of Mexico's first major king pins who co-founded the now-defunct Guadalajara Cartel.
