A girlfriend of Nemesio Oseguera, the powerful leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel who was killed by the Mexican military, was key to finding him in Tapalpa, a picturesque village of vacation homes in western Mexico. Â
The 59-year-old Oseguera, nicknamed "El Mencho," was wounded in a clash with soldiers on Sunday and died while being airlifted to hospital.
