Ovidio Guzman Lopez, El Chapo’s Son Extradited to Chicago To Face Drug Conspiracy Charges

"Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat “El Chapo” also faced federal drug charges in Chicago, but he was ultimately prosecuted in federal court ...

I'm sure he regrets his life choices now..
I feel bad for the sons in a way. How could a son of Chapo NOT be doomed at birth - expected to carry on the family business no matter what. Yet nonetheless, Cesar Guzman, Chapos 2nd oldest - apparently managed to live on the straight and narrow and is simply a restaurant owner.

And fuck Merrick Garland, obviously. But some damn strong police work by the DEA. How the hell they managed to infiltrate the Guzman faction of the Sinaloa Cartel to this level I don't know.. it's fairly unprecedented. Apparently A LOT of money was thrown around when recruiting informants .. ie amounts never seen before.

They might even put him in ADX Florence, same prison his father sits in.. yet the ones truly responsible for the success of the drug trade(IMO) are living large in Langley and DC... and Mexico City, etc. However bad Chapo is/was, those fckrs are worse.

He must have mistakingly thought he could stop paying his protection money to Hunter or one of the other Dem scumbags.

Gotta pay to play. This is America, and you can only sell large quantities of drugs here if you are the government or keep them rich.

I really dont care how many drugs they sell, it should be legal.

Where they gain my condemnation is in the intimidation and murdering of innocent people. Fuck them, lower than garbage. We need a virus that hots only cartel members. Is Tony Fauxi in the house?

Smoke and mirrors for the appearance they're doing something on the border without doing anything on the border.

Interesting read.

A lot of it goes back to them being the oldest and having a framework set in place, not unlike the Italian Mob, which goes way back to the time of the Carrillio's family dominance. As you mentioned in a previous post, when there was some sort of 'honor among thieves'. In the new upstart 'gangs' and thats really all they are the is no honor, just animals preying on each other.

The Sinaloa group is a business organization first. Much like the mob they are diversifying rapidly. I was told by someone with a bunch of knowledge on the subject most all the casino's and dispensaries here in OK are just money laundering mechanisms for cartel money. In the small city I live in there are literally at least 100 dispensaries, but none of them ever do much business...how do they survive and pay the rent.....?

From the article:

"the Sinaloa Cartel has succeeded in solidifying its reputation as a network of pragmatic, professional, and business-oriented entrepreneurs. This reputation fosters a sense of trust and dependability among the Sinaloa Cartel's associates. "

I've heard the exact same thing about many of California's dispensaries.
Apparently the sons have started opening American-like weed dispensaries in Culiacan as well.
