It refers to any individual working for the government or an entity owned by the government. For instance, in Mexico, police officers and anyone working for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gob.mx\/sedena\"><u>Secretar\u00eda de la Defensa Nacional<\/u><\/a>\u00a0(the Secretariat of Defense) count as public servants.<\/p>\n<p>Public servants are entrusted with the responsibility to act for the betterment of society. In simpler words, they\u2019re supposed to function as role models\u2014so if they commit a crime, their actions are put under significant scrutiny. But how are the penalties public servants face for committing crimes in Mexico different from civilians?<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a look at key differences between the penalties faced by public servants and civilians for committing crimes in Mexico.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><b>The Penalties for Drug-related Crimes are 1.5 Times More for Public Servants Compared to Civilians<\/b><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3294\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meneseslegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/man-cannabis-smoke.png\" alt=\"A man smoking cannabis\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2013\/09\/02\/world\/americas\/mexico-drug-war-fast-facts\/index.html\"><u>Mexico\u2019s drug war<\/u><\/a>\u00a0showing no signs of slowing down, the role of public servants in preventing drug-related crimes is more important than ever. But what happens if a public servant commits a drug-related crime?<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"#articulo-194\"><u>Article 194 of Mexico\u2019s Federal Penal Code<\/u><\/a>, civilians face 25 years in prison and a fine worth 500 days of their daily income for producing, selling, trafficking, and\/or supplying drugs in Mexico. In contrast, public servants who commit these crimes face over 37 years in jail, a fine worth 750 days of their daily income, and disqualification from holding public office positions for five years <a href=\"#articulo-196\"><u>as per Article 196<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that public servants who authorize or tolerate drug crimes face the same penalties as civilians who commit them. In simpler words, if you\u2019re a public servant in Mexico who finds out about civilian drug trafficking activities, you must act on this information immediately. If you don\u2019t, you could lose your job, pay a hefty fine, and serve a lengthy jail term!<\/p>\n<h3><strong><b>The Penalties for Crimes Involving Minors are Double for Public Servants Compared to Civilians<\/b><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meneseslegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/boys-guitar-meadow.png\" alt=\"A boy playing guitar next to three other boys in a meadow\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Mexico has extremely tough penalties for civilians who commit crimes involving minors. For instance, sending pornographic materials to a minor is punishable with up to 5 years in prison and a fine worth 500 days of your income as per <a href=\"#articulo-200\"><u>Article 200 of the Federal Penal Code<\/u><\/a>. But what if you\u2019re a public servant? If that\u2019s the case, you\u2019ll face 10 years in prison and a fine worth 1000 days of your income for committing the same crime.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, public servants face double the penalties civilians face for committing crimes involving minors <a href=\"https:\/\/mexico-justia-com.translate.goog\/federales\/codigos\/codigo-penal-federal\/libro-segundo\/titulo-octavo\/capitulo-v\/?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-US&amp;_x_tr_pto=wapp\"><u>as per clauses E, F, and H of Article 205<\/u><\/a>.

Public servants typically have access to information civilians don\u2019t, like strategic interest reports and confidential documents. If they pass these documents to rebel groups, they face up to 40 years in prison and a fine of up to 50,000 pesos as per <a href=\"#articulo-133\"><u>Article 133 of the Federal Penal Code<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In comparison, civilians are only liable for a maximum of 20 years in prison and a fine worth 50,000 pesos for providing rebels the strategic help as per <a href=\"#articulo-135\"><u>Article 135<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><b>The Penalties for Aiding Criminal Organizations Are 1.5 to 1.7 Times More for Public Servants Compared to Civilians<\/b><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3297\" src=\"https:\/\/www.meneseslegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/balaclava-cigarette-map.png\" alt=\"A gang member wearing a balaclava sitting in front of a map smoking a cigarette\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Imagine quitting your role as a public servant to become a gang member.

In contrast, civilians committing the same crime are liable for 10 years in prison and a fine worth 300 days of their income.<\/p>\n<p>If a public servant joins a gang and proceeds to commit organized crimes, the penalties they face will be two-thirds more than those faced by civilians as per <a href=\"#articulo-164-bis\"><u>Article 164 bis<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><b>Fabian Meneses of Meneses Legal Helps Clients Try and Obtain Reduced Penalties for Cross-Border Crimes<\/b><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re a public servant or a civilian, if you\u2019re charged with committing a cross-border crime and need help reducing the penalties against you, contact Fabian Meneses at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meneseslegal.com\/english\/\"><u>Meneses Legal<\/u><\/a>\u00a0ASAP.
