Rubido Garcia said "Operation Jalisco" will remain in the state to dismantle criminal groups operating in the state.
He noted that a list of priorities was established “at the beginning of President Peña’s administration, and work has been initiated.
However, Jalisco had not been placed in a position of priority, but after the May 1 violence in Jalisco, a "significant effort in the Mexican State has now been enforced in pursuit of the leader of CJNG Cartel Jalisco New Generation, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes (El Mencho).
He stressed that the attack on a military helicopter with a RPG rocket type shows the "firepower" of organized crime in the state.
The chief of the CNS stated that he is contemplating appointing a special commissioner for Jalisco, as was done in Michoacán (Alfredo Castillo)

Confusion over number of deaths and missing soldiers
Lucio: After being reported since Friday that in the violence 7 people were killed including 3 soldiers and one police, now the number has doubled over night from late Sunday to this morning, now the reported total is 15. Of the 15 authorities claim most were cártel gunmen.
However today Rubio Garcia said the number is 5.
He also said that maybe the three missing soldiers are not missing after all and were killed in the helicopter attack/crash. He added a disclaimer “but that is purely speculation on my part”.
