Kidnapped Mexican Influencer La Nicholette Amid Cartel War

On January 20, 2026, 20‑year‑old TikTok, Instagram, and OnlyFans star Nicole Pardo Molina—known as La Nicholette—was abducted from her Tesla Cybertruck in a high‑end neighbourhood of Culiacán, Sinaloa. The kidnapping lasted about forty seconds and was recorded by a camera mounted on the vehicle; the clip later circulated on TikTok, Telegram and X, prompting speculation that it might be a stunt. Mexican authorities issued a missing‑person alert at 10 p.m. that same night, and a change in status by January 24 announced she had been located. The incident is part of at least 21 influencer kidnappings or murders over the past five years, reflecting the growing use of social media as a front for cartel intimidation.
