The United States Embassy in Mexico<\/strong> has taken significant steps to combat drug trafficking and organized crime by releasing a video tutorial aimed at reporting information about Ryan James Wedding<\/strong>, a former Canadian Olympic athlete who has been placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted list<\/strong>.<\/p>\n According to U.S. authorities, Ryan Wedding is alleged to have deep ties with the notorious Sinaloa Cartel<\/strong>, primarily focusing on drug trafficking operations involving cocaine<\/strong>. Reports indicate that he is currently residing in Mexico and operates a transnational organization responsible for smuggling large quantities of narcotics, especially from California to Canada via a network based in Ontario.<\/p>\n The tutorial, which was released on December 8<\/strong>, outlines the process for citizens to report any pertinent information regarding Wedding. The U.S. government is incentivizing individuals to come forward by offering a reward of up to $15 million<\/strong> for credible information leading to his capture. <\/p>\n The embassy instructs individuals who may have knowledge about Wedding to contact them directly at 55-25-79-20-00<\/strong>. When calling, the caller should press \u201czero\u201d to reach an operator and state their intention to provide information about Ryan James Wedding<\/strong>. The authorities emphasize that any lead, no matter how minor it may seem, could be crucial in their efforts.<\/p>\n In a statement made by the U.S. Department of State\u2019s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs<\/strong>, it was announced that the reward for Wedding had been increased under the Narcotics Rewards Program<\/strong> as of November 19, 2025<\/strong>. This renewed commitment underscores the seriousness with which U.S. authorities are treating the issue.<\/p>\n As a former Olympic snowboarder who participated in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City<\/strong>, Wedding\u2019s fall from grace has been pronounced. The authorities accuse him of not only drug trafficking but also involvement in violent crimes, including homicides connected to a crime spree that took place between 2023 and 2025<\/strong>. These include notable crimes in Ontario and the murder of a federal witness in Colombia, for which the U.S. government has offered a $2 million<\/strong> reward for information leading to the resolution of that case.<\/p>\n This initiative is part of a broader, coordinated plan involving the FBI<\/strong>, as well as collaboration with the governments of Canada<\/strong> and Mexico<\/strong>. Economic sanctions imposed by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)<\/strong> on Wedding and his associates also support these efforts.<\/p>\n The U.S. Embassy\u2019s launch of this video tutorial marks a proactive measure in soliciting community involvement in the fight against drug trafficking and organized crime. The promise of protection and monetary rewards serves to encourage citizens to report any relevant information. Authorities hope that collaborative efforts will lead to the successful apprehension of individuals involved in such criminal activities.<\/p>\nAllegations Against Ryan Wedding<\/h3>\n
