Albuquerque, NM (KKOB) — Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, a 23-year-old Venezuelan national and alleged Tren de Aragua member, pleaded guilty to gun possession and evidence tampering. He lived with the family of former judge Joel Cano, reportedly working for them in exchange for housing. Prosecutors say Ortega-Lopez posted videos showing him handling firearms at the Cano residence and later tried to delete his social media accounts. The Cano family is also facing charges related to the case.
