One post even claimed there was a bounty on her and that she’d been turned over by her brother. “After the CJNG placed a $1.5 million bounty on Maria Julissa for exposing El Mencho’s location to the Mexico military, her brother who works for a local cartel saw it as a quick money making opportunity. In the early hours of today, he handed her over to the CJNG’s armed wing.”

The translation reads “The information circulating is false and unfounded. I ask you not to share unverified content and not to believe every post you see on social media .
