December 15, 1969 - Arnoldo Rueda Medina

A senior operational figure within La Familia Michoacana, he worked beneath two of Mexico's most wanted cartel leaders during a period when the organization was responsible for widespread violence, drug trafficking, and territorial control across Michoacán. His role in managing day-to-day operations placed him at the functional core of an organization that became one of the more ruthless and ideologically distinctive cartels of its era.
