Sheinbaum addresses murder of influencer in Culiacán: Wednesday’s mañanera recapped

President Claudia Sheinbaum addressed the murder of influencer César Gastélum in Culiacán during her Wednesday morning mañanera, informing that the case was discussed at the federal security cabinet meeting the previous day. Authorities are actively investigating to apprehend the perpetrators and ascertain the motive behind the shooting that occurred outside a KFC restaurant while Gastélum was broadcasting live.

Concerning a possible papal visit to Mexico, Sheinbaum affirmed that her government has already sent a written invitation to Pope Leo XIV, who is set to visit Latin America in November. She reiterated her intent to insist on the visit of the pope to Mexico following Cardinal Pietro Parolin's recent arrival in Mexico. Regarding allegations of threats against Chihuahua Governor Maru Campos, Sheinbaum denied her administration's involvement, stating that the federal government does not make threats and labeling the matter as an "investigative file" related to the CIA's alleged participation in a drug lab raid in Chihuahua.
