‘El Chapo’ Guzmán requests extradition to Mexico from the United States
Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, has sent another letter to Judge Brian Cogan requesting extradition to Mexico. According to the document, the once most-wanted man in the world insisted on receiving “equal treatment under the law” in his case and also requested to be tried in his home country on the pending charges against him. The drug lord has been serving a life sentence since 2019 for various drug trafficking offenses and has been incarcerated at the ADX Florence supermax federal prison in Colorado since then.
