According to reports, 29-year-old Jesus Ignacio Medina-Leyva of Culiacan, Mexico, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison plus three years’ supervised release for conspiracy to distribute 50 grams or more of methamphetamine and money laundering.

A federal grand jury indicted Medina-Leyva and 31 other defendants on November 2, 2017, after an investigation revealed their involvement in methamphetamine trafficking, a money laundering conspiracy, and various federal firearms violations.

On August 6, 2024, Medina-Leyva was arrested entering the United States from Canada on a warrant relating to the charges in the indictment. Later, on April 10, 2025, he pleaded guilty to both counts he was charged.
