Misael Torres Urrea

Misael Torres Urrea (; born ), commonly referred to by his alias "El M2", is a Mexican convicted drug lord and former high-ranking leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, a criminal group based in Sinaloa. He is the son of Javier Torres Félix (alias "El JT"), a former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel who worked under Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, one of Mexico's most-wanted men. In addition to his involvement in organized crime, he held a government post as syndic for a rural community in Cosalá, Sinaloa. He was the only candidate to run for this position, and held the role for less than a year.

Torres Urrea first came to public attention in 2008, when the Mexican Army discovered a photo of him with uncle Manuel Torres Félix (alias "El M1") following a raid in one of his uncle's ranches. At the scene they also discovered multiple assault rifles, drugs, an armored vehicle, among other suspicious belongings. Since then investigators have linked him to the Sinaloa Cartel and considered him one of the 122 most-wanted men in Mexico. In 2014, Torres Urrea was arrested by the Army in Culiacán, Sinaloa, and imprisoned at the Federal Social Readaptation Center No. 2, a maximum-security prison in Jalisco, where he serves a nine-year sentence.

Personal life Misael Torres Urrea, commonly referred to by his alias El M2, was born on to Javier Torres Felix (alias "El JT") and Agapita Urrea. (His date of birth was calculated based on his age (22) at the day of his arrest, 2 October 2014.)
