Inside the Hideout of Cartel Leader ‘El Mencho’

The luxurious, messy love nest where powerful drug lord Nemesio “El Mencho” Oseguera Cervantes spent his final days in hiding was littered with cartons of takeout food and tons of medication, including pills for insomnia.

The now-dead Jalisco New Generation Cartel leader was lying low at a two-story villa inside the exclusive, gated Tapalpa Country Club with one of his lovers — and by the looks of it, they really didn’t get out much.

In the kitchen, it looked as if a bomb had gone off. The counter was covered with takeout containers, rotten strawberries, milk cartons and water bottles, according to eerie photos obtained by Reuters.

Potatoes and tomatoes were dumped on the floor.

Food was strewn across a kitchen counter.

A fridge was jam-packed with large containers of beverages with other fruits and veggies.
