What it shows

An institutional bulletin not a police blotter

Worth knowing before you run it: the Nuevo Leon prosecutor uses its bulletins mainly to talk about itself, not to report arrest by arrest. What you find is a few hundred releases, published days or weeks apart, about equipment for the forensic medical service and the criminalistics institute, training on torture and the Istanbul Protocol, joint access-to-justice days with the judiciary, prevention campaigns, and events featuring its specialised units, among them the anti-corruption and electoral crime offices and the state investigation agency. It is a source on institutional policy, useful for knowing which unit handles what and how prosecution is being reorganised in the state.

FAQ

Common questions

01Will I see the day's arrests and sentences in Nuevo Leon?
Rarely. Unlike Jalisco, Chihuahua or the State of Mexico, the Nuevo Leon prosecutor does not publish a bulletin per case: its feed is institutional and covers equipment, training, agreements and campaigns. For specific events, local press or the prosecutors that do publish case by case are the better source.
02So what is this lookup for?
Following the institution: how it reorganises, which specialised units it creates or reinforces, what agreements it signs and what priorities it states. It is the material read by lawyers litigating in the state who need to know which specialised office owns a matter, and by anyone covering or analysing prosecution in Nuevo Leon.
03How should I use the keyword search?
With institutional terms, which is what the text is full of: corrupción, electorales, tortura, periciales, desaparecidas, capacitación or the name of a metropolitan municipality. Searching for a common offence returns little, not because the search fails but because the bulletin rarely covers that.
04Is it free? How big is the archive?
It is free and needs no account, with a cap on lookups per hour from the same connection. The archive runs to a few hundred bulletins, so the response tells you the page count and a handful of pages covers almost all of it.
