Fideicomiso problems

Sir
I moved to Merida in 2004 and came with my mother and sister. Both she and I bought houses and lived ther until my mother passed. I married in 2006 and returned to the United States for my wife to become a us citizen.
I rented my house to a group of people who claim to own a pepper plantation and was recommended.
Turns out these people were very corrupt conducting illegal operations. The PGR came in 2016 and arrested these people and sealed my house and forbid me from entering.
I retained a local lawyer and we went to Mexico city for me to do a deposition to prove I was not involved with these people. (I offered to do a lie detector test.
After many times the lawyer went to Mexico city to take forms. Wife and I decided to travel to Mexico City to check the status of my house. When arriving at the PGR office and they said I would need a letter from my lawyer and we were turned away. (PGR office in Merida and my lawyer both said I do not need a letter),
We returned to Mexico City on October 15 and was able to talk with the PGR officer and was informed that they gave my house to the Hacienda……Said they tried to reach my lawyer who has 4 phone numbers and no one showed any interest in the house.
I have been paying the Fideicomiso every year and also paying the city taxes.
I feel this is something that happens in a communist country.
I am a Decorated American Vietnam Veteran, Kentucky Colonel, and in good standing. I have a perfect background with not legal problems in the past.
The only thing I can think to do is WARN anyone planning to relocate or visit Mexico be prepared.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Doyle Guy
