Jenni died in a devastating plane crash on Dec. 9 in Mexico and now a report claims that the singer was working for a famous drug lord right before her death.

Jenni Rivera is gone and although her memory lives on, alleged ties to a drug gang are overshadowing Jenni’s life. The singer was killed on Dec. 9 after her plane went down and everyone in the aircraft also died. Now a new report claims that Jenni partied, performed and worked for the Beltran Leyva cartel, one of the country’s most prominent drug gangs.

Jenni’s Alleged Ties To The Drug Cartel

The Mexican-American singer reportedly worked alongside Edgar Valdez Villarreal, also known as “El Barbie.” Jenni was also reportedly detained at the Mexico City Airport in 2009 for carrying more than $50K in cash.

Jenni never admitted to these claims but she has said: “Yes, it is true that at times you are not aware of who contracts you [for a show],” she told ¡Hola! Magazine. “They tell you that you will sing at a certain place and that they will pay you a certain amount of money.”

Jenni’s Tragic Death

Jenni and five others were killed in the plan that “nose-dived” on Dec. 9. The owner of the plane is now being investigated for possible drug trafficking.

“The plane practically nosedived,” Mexican transportation official Gerardo Ruiz Esparaza said. “The impact must have been terrible.”

The plane reportedly fell at a 45-degree angle and landed 1.2 miles from where it began going down.

Do you think that it’s possible that Jenni was involved with a drug cartel in the months leading up to her death?

i think that she was always a hard working woman and she wouldn’t be involved if she didn’t know for who she was singing. she was simply doing her job.

No I don’t think that Jenni was in none of this stupid things. Poor Jenni probably those people that made contracts knew it and never let her know. A friend of mine told me that she never have to go to Mexico to do concerts because in mexico almost all concerts are paid by the cartels that sell drugs. Those who’s suposed to take care of her never did, and that is so sad :( God knows all things this is why he decided it to take her with him cause everybody was abusing her so much. She was a good person. That loves to work to feed her children. WAO.!

No I don’t think she would… If anything she always had death threats because she wasn’t paying an allowance for her protection in Mexico.
