Five Mexican nationals were indicted on federal drug trafficking and weapons charges this week after authorities discovered a clandestine methamphetamine lab in Northern California, leading to the seizure of nearly 3,000 pounds of the drug, officials said.
The Department of Justice said a federal grand jury returned a 10-count indictment Thursday against Luis Reyna Carrillo, 33, Mariana Vanessa Mendoza Camacho, 33, Juan Jesus Manriquez Diaz, 31, Alvaro Rosales, 44, and Manuel Juan Madrid Perez, 38, charging them with conspiracy to manufacture and distribute methamphetamine and multiple drug trafficking and gun offenses.
"These illegal aliens allegedly operated a secret lab on American soil producing thousands of pounds of deadly drugs to poison our communities," Attorney General Pamela Bondi said. "This clandestine and illegal operation has now been dismantled. We will continue protecting Americans from the dangerous results of the prior administration’s open-border policies."
Carrillo and his wife, Camacho, came to the U.S. in March 2021 and were given a notice to appear in court at a later date. Diaz was removed from the U.S. in 2018, while Rosales was removed in 2024.
Court documents allege that, in October 2025, law enforcement officials launched an investigation into an organization suspected of manufacturing and trafficking methamphetamine in a remote section of Calaveras County.
Investigators identified Carrillo and his associates as part of a drug trafficking operation responsible for manufacturing and distributing methamphetamine in Calaveras County.
The investigation culminated on Feb. 27, 2026, when multiple agencies executed search warrants at three locations — Valley Springs, Turlock and Modesto — all allegedly connected to Carrillo and his associates.

Damn, it’s bad enough to have the stuff made in Colombia and Mexico and smuggled here, but now the illegals are making it here under our very noses!
Who were they paying to turn a blind eye to their operation?
I see an affordability problem looming. Where will working families be able to get meth they can afford?
Mass Quantities!
Remulak!
Meps!
A distribution drug house was just busted near me in Washington state. Bullet proof vests were found that, curiously, had Mexican flags on them.
There are already tons of Mexican nationals in California prisons. This will just add to it.
