Part 4/11:
One of the most notorious symbols of CJNG’s brutality was the discovery of the Ranchu Seer extermination camp outside Guadalajara. Allegedly operated by CJNG, this camp was said to have been used for kidnapping, torture, murder, and indoctrination of recruits—many of whom were dehumanized into lethal operatives capable of extreme acts without remorse.
The organization employs cult-like recruitment methods, targeting impressionable youth and turning them into elite killers through heinous training, often in rural and mountainous areas. Such indoctrination fosters unwavering loyalty, making CJNG members akin to fanatical soldiers willing to die for the cartel’s cause.
