Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán is a notorious Mexican drug lord who was once considered one of the most powerful and elusive drug traffickers in the world. Born on April 4, 1957, in La Tuna, Mexico, he rose through the ranks of the Sinaloa Cartel, a powerful drug trafficking organization based in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico.

El Chapo gained notoriety for his ability to evade capture for many years despite being one of the most wanted men by both Mexican and U.S. authorities. He was known for his cunning tactics, including the use of intricate tunnel systems to transport drugs across the U.S.-Mexico border.

In 1993, he was arrested in Guatemala and extradited to Mexico, where he was sentenced to 20 years in prison for drug trafficking, criminal association, and bribery charges. However, in 2001, he escaped from prison by reportedly hiding in a laundry cart.

For over a decade, El Chapo remained on the run, continuing to lead the Sinaloa Cartel and expanding its operations internationally. During this time, he became one of the most powerful and feared drug lords in the world, amassing a vast fortune estimated to be billions of dollars.

In 2014, he was captured again by Mexican authorities in a joint operation with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) in the city of Mazatlán, Mexico. He was subsequently extradited to the United States to face multiple charges related to drug trafficking, money laundering, and organized crime.

El Chapo's trial in the United States began in November 2018 in a federal court in Brooklyn, New York. The trial was highly publicized and revealed shocking details about his criminal empire, including his involvement in smuggling massive quantities of drugs into the United States and his use of violence and corruption to maintain control.

In February 2019, after a three-month trial, El Chapo was found guilty on all counts, including operating a continuing criminal enterprise, international distribution of cocaine, heroin, marijuana, and other drugs, as well as involvement in multiple murders and money laundering schemes. The verdict ensured that he would likely spend the rest of his life in a maximum-security prison in the United States.

In this episode we begin our look at why El Chapo Says his trial was unconstitutional and why he deserves a new trial.
