Mexico's Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación used a phony security company to recruit and train hitmen in the cities of Tlaquepaque and Puerto Vallarta, officials said.
The drug cartel distributed marketing materials in the streets and hired Johanna Mary Hernandez, a 28-year-old U.S. citizen, and another suspect to meet with recruits at ranches, Jalisco Attorney General Eduardo Almaguer said.
