His drug cartel, La Familia Michoacana uses murder and torture to quash rivals, while building a social base in the Mexican state of Michoacán. It was the fastest-growing cartel in the country's drug war, and is a religious cult-like group that celebrates family values, and justifies murder as "divine justice".

Rafael Cedeño was arrested on 20 April 2009 during a raid at a baptism party for a baby born to a cartel member.
