More Michoacán Fallout

CNDH boss José Luis Soberanes says that Godoy should have been advised of the arrests in his state beforehand. I'm not sure why Soberanes' opinions on this are relevant (and nor is Gustavo Madero), but there it is.

Second, the government is saying that La Familia had been planning an "electoral assault" in various cities in Michoacán (including Morelia, Uruapan, Lázaro Cárdenas, and
Apatzingán, which I believe are the four biggest in the state). Evidently, the group had been funneling money into various candidates' campaigns, and after the elections they would presumably have controlled a good portion of the state's legislators. It's only natural that the federal government would be playing up this angle, but supposing there's even a hair of truth to it, all the more reason for not waiting a day longer to execute the arrests.
