Acting Mexican State Attorney General Admits Her Cousin Is a Cartel Operative
That must make the job interesting...
[Breitbart] The acting attorney general for Veracruz admitted she is the cousin of a top operator for Los Zetas Cartel.

During a hearing before the State Congress of Veracruz, Acting Attorney General Veronica Hernandez Giadans said she was related by blood to Guadalupe Hernandez "La Jefa" Hervis, a woman wanted by federal authorities on multiple organized crime charges. La Jefa is also described as a close ally of Hernan "Comandante H" Martinez Zavaleta.

The questions about Hernandez's family history came during a heated exchange with Congressman Jose Manuel Posos Castro, who hails from Mexico's Morena Party, Radio Formula reported.

Hernandez recently took the position as acting attorney general after the former AG became a fugitive. He was outed for allegedly protecting members of Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generacion, Proceso reported.

A video shared on social media by another reporter from Veracruz captured the moment when Hernandez said that she could not answer for her family's actions and criminal activities, but she would respond to her own actions.

#2 30 years may well have passed, but I'm guessing her cousin and a few friends may drop by to catch up.

#3 July 19, 2014: MORENA, the National Regeneration Movement is led by former presidential candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador. It was founded in November 2012. López Obrador and his followers had been members of the Party of the Democratic Revolution: "They now have the electoral vehicle they wanted as they prepare to enter the mid-term Mexican elections in 2015. The expectation is that MORENA will nominate López Obrador for president in the 2018 elections."
