In Nuevo León, several candidates for criminal judges have been indicated for ordering the release of criminals or imposing precautionary measures. Among them stand out Diana Monserrat Partida, Julio Veredín Sena, Aníbal Castro Borbón Conrado Alcalá Romo, and Enrique Hernández Miranda, nominated by the Executive Branch. It is noteworthy that, despite some of them also being nominated by the Judicial Branch, it has been denied that the majority belong to this institution, as previously stated by Fernández Noroña.
Additionally, the list includes four other candidates nominated by the Legislative Branch for alleged ties to organized crime. Among them are Francisco Martín Hernández Zaragoza, Edgar Agustín Rodríguez Beiza, Andrés Montoya García, and Leopoldo Javier Chávez. All of them face various accusations, from sexual abuse to forced disappearance and crimes against health.
On the other hand, eight cases have been challenged for not meeting the minimum average requirement of 8, the majority nominated by the Executive Branch. Among them is Arturo Manuel Fernández Abundis, who aspires to be a judge in Sinaloa but does not appear in the corresponding official records. Likewise, six more candidates have also been pointed out for failing to meet this requirement.
Furthermore, other cases have been indicated for alleged ties to organized crime. One of the nominees is Arturo César Morales Ramírez, a candidate for administrative magistrate in Mexico City, who faces charges of organized crime and has an outstanding arrest warrant. Likewise, Jesús Karina Almada Rábago, a candidate for mixed judge in Mexico City, has defended a drug trafficker from the Sinaloa Cartel.
Finally, the removal of 26 candidates for the judicial election has been requested, including those who have ties to organized crime, have released criminals, have been accused of any crime, and others for not meeting requirements such as the minimum average of 8. Among the questioned candidates are Alejandro Tlacuahuac Zitlalpopoca, candidate for labor magistrate in Puebla, accused of sexual abuse, and Ángel Antonio Villegas Cortés, aspiring mixed judge in Veracruz, accused of threats and injuries.
