Wedding, 44, was placed on the FBI Ten Most Wanted list in March 2025 and is accused of running a transnational drug trafficking network that "routinely shipped hundreds of kilograms of cocaine from Colombia, through Mexico and Southern California, to Canada and other locations in the United States," according to the FBI.

He is also accused of orchestrating multiple murders and attempted murder as a part of his drug trafficking operation.

Wedding and 14 other alleged associates were specifically accused of orchestrating the January 2025 murder of a witness who was shot and killed at a restaurant in Colombia. He allegedly placed a bounty on the victim’s head, thinking the victim's death would lead to the dismissal of charges against him and the drug-trafficking ring he allegedly heads, according to an indictment unsealed in November.




Turns out, posting on Instagram while being on the FBI’s most wanted list isn’t the best idea.

The movie they make about this baw is going to be must watch

Being a drug kingpin sounds like the worst existence.

It’s not like you can just chill at the beach and raise a family or whatever.

You have to feel the constant pressure of “is today the day that I get arrested and get to spend the rest of my life in a prison” or “is today the day that I catch a bullet and I am dead”?

Sounds utterly exhausting

As usual the FBI makes him out to be way bigger than he actually is. They only want him this bad because a federal witness was killed which he did not actually do himself. The Sinaloa Cartel is much more dangerous than this dude

These capos get too greedy.

Make your 100M then pass it off to someone else. Stay under the radar.

Now he'll be in prison for life due to his own stupidity

Why anyone trying to stay hidden doesn’t get rid of all devices/accounts connected to the grid baffles me.
