The lieutenants include José Gregorio Hermida, alias “Comandante Lastra,” whom authorities have called a regional recruiter for the Jalisco cartel and a boss of the ranch operation.

Prosecutors say Comandante Lastra — who was arrested March 20 outside Mexico City — reported to Gonzalo Mendoza Gaytán, known as “The Toad,” a high-level cartel capo.

Mexican authorities announced last month the arrest of the alleged camp ringleader, identified only as “José Gregorio N,” and known as “El Lastra” or “Comandante Lastra,” a top recruiter for the Jalisco cartel.

Rocha praised the late Cuban leader Fidel Castro as “Comandante,” branded the U.S. the “enemy” and bragged about his service for more than 40 years as a Cuban mole in the heart of U.S. foreign policy circles, the complaint says.

Rocha was secretly recorded by an undercover FBI agent praising Fidel Castro as “El Comandante” and bragging about his work for Cuba’s communist government, calling it “more than a grand slam” against the U.S. “enemy.”
