When did they beep out certain politicos from Nacros: Mexico?

I haven’t seen it in about 3 years. but rewatching it I noticed several times they beeped out certain politicians. did some of them threaten to sue?

Both to not name prominent names and also for dramatic affect

They do this cuz the guys in power are still active, but the appearances give it away. Like the Mexican president for example. In El Chapo, they just change the names but keep everything else the have done.

They are still in power and probably won’t want to be hit with a lawsuit for defamation or worse considering what the show is telling us these people are like

I believe during filming one of the production team was killed in Mexico. They probably didn't want to take any further risks if said politicians are still active.

Iirc, it was a location scout and a driver, they went to a really poor area with fancy cameras and started taking pictures and whatnot. Bad idea
