translated from Spanish: García Luna negotiates to plead guilty, give information and reduce his sentence

Former Federal Secretary of Public Security, Genaro García Luna, negotiates with U.S. justice to plead guilty, hand over information, and thus reduce the penalty against him.
This is shown by court documents, released by new York Times reporter Alan Feuer and Vice News’s Keegan Hamilton.

On January 3, the official who worked in the governments of Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderón pleaded not guilty to the charges against him at a Federal Court in the Old District of New York, Brooklyn.
In making public the announcement of Garcia Luna’s arrest in Texas, prosecutor Richard Donoghue detailed allegations that, in exchange for the complicity provided to the Sinaloa Cartel, García Luna allegedly received “millions of dollars” as a bribe payment, which allowed him to amass an illegal fortune.
After leaving the Mexican government, the former official moved to the state of Florida, United States, and started various businesses. The U.S. government presumes that collaboration with crime continued during this time in a hidden manner, in possible money laundering or asset laundering activities, among others.
It is also presumed that his stay in the city of Miami was allegedly financed by resources from illicit activities.
