Orson William Black was arrested on Sunday in the border state of Chihuahua, alongside his four wives and 22 other Americans, including some minors.
Mexican police arrested Black, 56, while investigating the deaths of three Americans aged, 15, 19 and 23 who were found dead at a ranch in September.
The American polygamist accused of leading a cult and is wanted in the US on pedophilia charges has been arrested in Mexico with four of his wives and a self-described concubine as part of a triple murder investigation.
He was detained with his four wives and about 22 other Americans who were found without proper documents, including an undetermined number of minors.
For now, he and the others arrested at the ranch face charges of entering Mexico illegally and animal cruelty.
More than 50 butchered and frozen animals were found across five properties – including zebra, buffalo and a lion.
