Respondent.
On Petition for Review of an Order of the
Board of Immigration Appeals
Submitted May 24, 2017**
Before: THOMAS, Chief Judge, and SILVERMAN and RAWLINSON,

Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C.
§ 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings, Silaya v.
Mukasey, 524 F.3d 1066, 1070 (9th Cir. 2008), and we deny the petition for
review.
Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s denial of Jimenez-Esquer’s CAT
claim because Jimenez-Esquer failed to establish it is more likely than not she
would be tortured by or with the consent or acquiescence of the government of
Mexico. See id. at 1073; Zheng v. Holder, 644 F.3d 829, 835-36 (9th Cir. 2011)
(claims of possible torture were speculative). We reject her contentions that the
agency erred in analyzing her claim.
PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
