U.S. and Mexican authorities have kicked off discussions to plan the extradition of drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán Loera to the United States, a spokesman for the U.S. Department of Justice announced on Jan. 14.
Notorious Mexican drug lord Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman has escaped from prison again, just one year and five months after his arrest a Mexico beach resort in February 2014.
He's one of the most dominant drug lords of all time, making Forbes' list of Most Powerful People, and before the culmination of a 13-year manhunt, Mexican kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman ("Shorty" Guzman) had maintained his freedom by building escape tunnels under bathtubs, hiding in sewers and using sophisticated high-tech tools to perform counterespionage measures.
Joaquin Guzmán, Mexico's most powerful drug lord also known as "El Chapo," used high-tech methods to evade international authorities for more than a decade, according to a new report. Those high-tech tools, however, also led to his downfall.
When you are considered "the biggest drug lord of all time" and make Forbes' top billionaires list, you pretty much always get what you want through power and corruption -- even when it comes to matters of the heart.
