### Internal Investigations Initiated by New State Prosecutor Over Former Administration

The current Attorney General of the State, María Elena Andrade Ramírez, has announced the commencement of several internal investigations to address issues identified during the tenure of former prosecutor Ricardo Iván Carpio Sánchez. These revelations were made in a recent presentation to the local Congress, where Andrade Ramírez was questioned about the state of the office upon her appointment.

In her address, Andrade Ramírez explained that a thorough review of the department’s operations was launched as soon as she assumed her role on August 23, 2023. This review led to the discovery of certain discrepancies linked to the previous administration, prompting the referral of these matters to internal affairs for deeper investigation.

During the Congressional session, PAN party member Alejandrina Corral Quintero highlighted the legislature’s previous attempts to engage with the former prosecutor over ongoing issues, notably in the wake of two ministry agents’ arrests in the United States on drug trafficking charges. These incidents raised concerns about the potential involvement of other officials from Carpio Sánchez’s office. Despite previous calls for clarification, the former prosecutor did not respond to congressional queries.

Andrade Ramírez emphasized the importance of distinguishing responsibility among staff, including prosecutors and support staff. With support from the majority of local legislators, she succeeded Carpio Sánchez, who resigned on August 10, 2023, citing personal reasons.

### Further Developments in Legal Accountability in Baja California

Recent activities in Baja California’s legal circles have brought more focus on potential police misconduct.

In a separate development, infrastructure enhancements are taking shape across the region. Efforts to improve traffic efficiency include the manual synchronization of traffic lights on major corridors, projected to cut travel times significantly.

Meanwhile, on the healthcare front, the government has boosted its campaign for non-invasive vasectomies, with goals set for November to safely conduct hundreds of procedures. This initiative aligns with global movements towards accessible and efficient family planning services.

For residents, the renewal of official documents remains a pressing issue, with thousands needing to update their credentials before the year’s end. This process is vital for maintaining eligibility for various services and civic engagements.
