LAS CRUCES – A New Mexico judge, Joel Cano, and his wife, Nancy, have been arrested after they were caught housing an alleged Tren de Aragua member.
Cano recently resigned after authorities arrested 23-year-old Cristhian Ortega-Lopez.
“The home of a former judge in Las Cruces was raided Thursday, following accusations that he and his wife had an alleged Tren de Aragua member living in their home,” KFOX14 reported.
According to Breitbart, after authorities first executed a search warrant on the home in February, they recovered photos on Ortega-Lopez’s phone of decap*tated and m*tilated bodies.
