SAM BREGMAN'S STATEMENT ON THE CAPTURE OF TWO CARTEL LEADERS IN NEW MEXICO --
The capture of two known leaders of the Sinaloa cartel was a significant victory for law enforcement in the United States. As the Bernalillo County District Attorney and Chairman of the Governor's Organized Crime Commission, I congratulate all law enforcement involved. The arrests of Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada and Joaquin Guzman Lopez, the son of "El Chapo" Guzman, took place in Santa Teresa, New Mexico. Time will tell, but we hope this will result in less fentanyl and human trafficking in our state.

Today Special Agents with the Bernalillo County DA's Office located Heng Zhang. He had an outstanding felony warrant stemming from charges of distributing a controlled substance and shoplifting. Investigators believe Zhang shoplifted from a smoke shop/grocery store in February. When security and APD officers searched him, they found more than 500 Fentanyl pills in his pants pockets. Zhang failed to show up to court in March. Today Zhang was booked into jail for the felony warrant and an additional misdemeanor warrant for speeding and driving on a suspended driver's license. #FelonyWarrant#lawenforcement#APD#berncoda#SpecialAgents...
