Mexico's law enforcement operates with three distinct powers of authority and jurisdiction: federal, state and municipal. With the recent reform of former president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Mexico's Federal Police, the agency was dissolved due to corruption, links with organized crime and similar issues. A new agency replaced the Federal Police which is the Mexican National Guard.[1]
