Grounds for prosecution
On 20 May 2021, the US District Court for the District of Montana issued an arrest warrant following charges of conspiracy to possess methamphetamine with intent to distribute and possession of the substance with such intent. The case file also includes a section on criminal forfeiture. [1]
A confiscation order is part of the charges brought, not proof that the specific property has already been definitively forfeited to the state. The brief source does not disclose the total quantity of the drugs or the amount of alleged proceeds. [1]
What information can assist the investigation?
The FBI has published a photograph, his date of birth (18 January 1986) and the alternative spelling ‘Leobarde Pena Gutierrez’. The file is linked to this individual profile and the period of 2020. Attributing his affiliation to a specific Mexican cartel without an additional source would be unfounded. [1]
