Officials said that a Utah couple and their two sons are facing federal accusations in the United States for allegedly smuggling $ 300 million worth of crude oil from Mexico with Mexican criminal organizations.
56 -year -old James Jenson, and his wife, Kelly, 54, were arrested at a 26,893 -square -foot modern palace in Utah’s Sandy last week. During several state operations, US marshalls used a ruined Ram to enter the property, showing court records. Their sons, Maxwell, 29, and Chakari, 27, were also accused.
The family is said to have supplied 2,881 illegal oil through the Aroo Terminals based on May 2022, indirectly changing the cargo to “waste loop” or “petroleum filters.”
According to the US district court warrant, the payment was paid to the Mexican businesses tied to the cartels. Prosecutors said $ 47 million had been transferred to these companies.
Federal agents simultaneously tested the Rio Hondo feature of the Auroo terminals near the Mexican border. The court ordered the confiscation of $ 300 million, including the company, bank accounts, vehicles, their luxury residence in Santi and a secondary house in Utah’s Drop.

It should be noted that Mexico’s state-run oil and gas company, Pemex, wrote in the newspaper El Finaminero that 18 million liters of illegal fuel/hydrocarbons were confiscated in this spring-but it should be noted that the amount was only 7.2% of the amount of Jensen’s operation.
Former president of Mexico’s Energy Regulatory Authority, Francisco Barnes de Castro said: “These thefts cannot occur without company complicity. He is mainly referring to poorly supervised marine oil sites.
