FGR lacks evidence against Rocha Moya for links to drug trafficking

FGR has no evidence of links between Rocha Moya and the Sinaloa Cartel.

Investigation without substantial progress

The head of the Specialized Regional Control Prosecutor’s Office, David Boone de la Garza, acknowledged that the Attorney General’s Office (FGR) does not have sufficient evidence about possible links of the licensed governor of Sinaloa, Rubén Rocha Moya, with the Sinaloa Cartel.

During the conference by prosecutor Ernestina Godoy Ramos, Boone assured that the investigation against the Morena official and others accused by the United States Department of Justice—among them Senator Enrique Inzunza Cázares—continues exhaustively. However, no elements have been obtained that meet the minimum standard required by Mexican law.

“There has been no evidence, specifically to respond in the sense of the minimum evidentiary parameter required by Mexican law,” he declared.

The official explained that the Federal Public Ministry interviewed the ten people requested by the United States and received reports and reports. The review is rigorous, he said.

“They summoned the 10 people, reports have been received, the investigation has been very exhaustive,” he explained.

He added that the chief prosecutor and the special prosecutor for complex cases maintain the conviction of being exhaustive. Until now, no formal charges have been filed in Mexico against Rocha Moya for these allegations.

The best-rated jeans by Profeco: what are they?

Profeco evaluated 30 models of denim pants; These are the brands with the best resistance.

Denim, known globally as denim, remains one of the most popular textiles. To guide the consumer, the Federal Consumer Protection Agency (Profeco) analyzed 30 models of men’s pants through its National Consumer Protection Laboratory.

Analysis results

Thirteen models were 100% cotton and 17 were a blend of fibers. All garments complied with the commercial information and labeling. However, durability and geometric consistency tests showed important differences.

In the pure cotton category, Silver Plate was the only brand to earn an Excellent rating for overall durability. Regarding color fastness after washing, nine of the thirteen models maintained their properties without critical alterations.

In the fiber blend segment, Levi’s (model 510) and Oggi (softened Croster Holland and softened Ragnar RPV variants) stood out for their greater resistance to wear. In contrast, models from Lee and Oggi (Vaxter rebel) showed slight shrinkage, while Big John and Furor registered twists in the legs after washing.

Profeco Recommendations

The agency warns that many garments from brands such as Big John, Furor, Oggi, Yale and Member’s Mark have dimensions slightly larger than the indicated size. Therefore, he recommends always trying on the pants before purchasing.

To prolong the useful life of the fabric and reduce the environmental impact, Profeco suggests:

  • Check seams: avoid loose threads, discolorations or poor joints.
  • Wash the garment before using it for the first time to eliminate impurities and avoid irritation. The dye may come off at first, so it is recommended not to mix it with other clothes.
  • Dry in the shade: direct exposure to the sun accelerates color loss.
  • Consider the weight: the pants evaluated weigh between 367 and 485 grams per square meter, a key factor for daily comfort.

Corruption in Mexico: record cost of 3,865 pesos per inhabitant

The cost of corruption per citizen reached 3,865 pesos in 2025, according to Coparmex.

The cost of corruption in 2025

Corruption in Mexico cost an average of 3,865 pesos per citizen in 2025, Coparmex reported. The total losses are close to 17 billion pesos, according to the employer organization.

The data comes from the #DataCoparmex survey and the National Survey of Government Quality and Impact (ENCIG) of Inegi. The report warns that this phenomenon discourages investment, increases operating costs and destroys legal certainty.

40.2% of Coparmex member companies reported having been victims of corruption in the last year. The highest incidence was recorded at the municipal level with 62.2%, followed by the state level with 57.8% and the federal level with 42.8%.

The Inegi revealed 98.9% impunity in crimes that affect economic units. Practices such as bribery, extortion and unjustified delays are rarely reported or investigated.

Mexico fell to 141st place out of 182 countries in the 2025 Corruption Perception Index, with only 27 points out of 100.

Given this scenario, Coparmex reiterated its willingness to collaborate with the three levels of government on regulatory reforms and integrity mechanisms. He stressed that an effective rule of law is urgently needed to regain confidence and strengthen the country’s competitiveness.
