CLAIM UNDER REVIEW

ZETA reported its GESI-attributed Tecate totals as 96 violent deaths in 2019 and 165 executions in 2020 and described a claimed CJNG/Sinaloa conflict; FGE's official victim tables separately show 96 and 165 victims.

The matching death totals do not corroborate ZETA's group-conflict theory.

What remains unknown

    Olga Zulema Adams Pereyra was Tecate's elected municipal president for the 2019–2021 term. Her official record is distinct from the proposed family links: a sibling relationship with Carlos Gil Adams Pereyra and the reported candidate-nephew connection remain unverified.
