Currently, dear friends, in Mexico there is not a single criminal organization dedicated to drug trafficking and other organized crime activities that has dedicated the participation of women in their illicit activities. The main cartels have no qualms about recruiting women into their ranks to assign them jobs ranging from administration, drug sales, spying, assassination, and even as plaza bosses. 

According to a source from the Attorney General's Office, the main criminal organizations that use women to carry out their activities include the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, the Cartel de Sinaloa, and La Familia Michoacána, where it is estimated that at least 5 to 8 percent of their assets are women.

According to the same source, other cartels such as the Gulf Cartel and the Northeast Cartel have at least 3 to 4 percent of their members as women. And there are more and more women participating directly in the different labor structures of the different drug trafficking cartels that exist in this country.

* Gente del Mayo by Estilo DGO is the narco ballad that plays within this broadcast.
