Cristian Fernando Gutierrez-Ochoa — the son-in-law of Jalisco New Generation cartel leader "El Mencho" — was arrested in Riverside, California, officials said.

Ochoa, a Mexican cartel leader, has been hit with allegations involving faking his death, absconding from Mexico, and living luxuriously under a sham ID in California.

Authorities announced the capture of a cartel leader who allegedly faked his death to "live a life of luxury" in the United States with his wife.
