Is this for real? Cardinal's cousin arrested due to name confusion

After spending six days in prison after her arrest due to the discovery of a marijuana-loaded vehicle registered in her name, it appears that María Carrera Rivera, cousin of Cardinal Norberto Rivera, was confused with another person called María Cabrera Rivera.

If this is truly the case, it is yet another shocking reminder that in Mexico you may still remain guilty until proven innocent. It is hardly a comfort that this also applies to the cousin of the head of the Mexican Catholic church.
