Even though he was identified as one of the visible heads of a new generation of narco traffickers, there are no known arrest warrants for Damaso Lopez Serrano, El Mini Lic, in Mexico or the United States.
According to the electronic system of the Federal Courts of the American Union, until yesterday, there has not been a registered indictment or accusation of wrong doing against the son of Damaso Lopez Nunez, El Licenciado, operator of the Sinaloa Cartel.
In Mexico he was part of the list of priority objectives of the Federal Government, however, there is no registration of orders of apprehension for cases of narco trafficking, nor amparos against capture for crimes of any nature.
There was an order of provisional detention for purposes of extradition. But the last time the PGR carried out and operation to try and detain El Mini Lic, it was not based on an arrest warrant issued by a Judge, but an order from SIEDO according to Federal reports.
If he has an order under seal, Serrano Lopez could obtain benefits such as reduction of the penalty and the cancellation of charges, in exchange for information about the structure of the criminal organization to which he and his accomplices were part of.
If so, he will be under the guard of the DEA as a protected witness, and will have to appear in trials against other members of the Sinaloa Cartel.
