SALT LAKE CITY, Utah â A Utah woman is heading to federal prison for buying dozens of high-powered rifles for Mexican drug cartel members.
It all started in 2017, when Norma Llamas Rodriguez, 47, began buying more and more guns with increased caliber, but she escaped detection because she did not have a criminal record.
Some of the assault rifles were seized at the U.S. border heading into Mexico, with a least one, a semi-automatic that was converted into a machine gun, discovered last April following a gun battle in Jalisco, Mexico, between cartel members and police.
