Re: EL CHAPO HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!

Yay! I hope it's true and I hope he doesn't escape again!

My worry is if there are insiders helping him he will find a way to get out again unless they do something extreme to stop it.

Re: EL CHAPO HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!

 

Updated 20 mins ago
Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto announced Friday that fugitive drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman was recaptured six months after he escaped from a maximum security prison.

An official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to be quoted by name said Guzman was apprehended after a shootout with Mexican marines in the city of Los Mochis, in Guzman's home state of Sinaloa. He said Guzman was taken alive and was not wounded.

Re: EL CHAPO HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!

LOL!  I just had a funny thought about keeping him "in" somewhere or "out" of somewhere else, but if I write it, it will surely become "political" & then the thread will get poofed.

Re: EL CHAPO HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!

I also just heard on CNN that they caught him by shooting him in the butt!  (Not sure how accurate these early reports are, since this is breaking news.)

If they REALLY want him secure, he should be in an American high security prison, but that would never come to be.


Why not? We have charges against him too. The only way he will not be busted out again is if we (US) actualy hold him in one of our highest security federal prisons.


The US has offered to hold him in a disclosed location for them here, stateside.  They refused. 

It's a sad situation all around.  I don't like or promote drug lords or the drugs, they handicapp people.  Yet, those in Mexico support El Chapo because they say if it weren't for him, they would starve - he feeds the people when their own government and industry won't.  Don't know what the truth is there but the drug situation is way out of hand.  It has to be stopped.

Last I heard on the news that Mexico had said that they will extradite him to the US when he was caught. Now that he is caught, they still say they will extradite him so he can stand trial in the US for all his charges. I think they learned their lesson after this second escape.

 

El Chapo is a murdered and I will never feel it is okay for him to be free. I feel for the Mexican people that feel he is their only hope but the country needs to prosecute him and send him away for life and then fix their country once and fall. No Country should ever have to rely on a murderous drug lord for survival so the government needs to step up and reform the whole country.

 

Part of the reason so many in Mexico are starving is because the drug cartel rules everything and keeps people down, partly so they can continue to control everything. Remove them and you've won half the battle. Easier said then done though, I know but it should have never been allowed to get this far.

 

And El Chapo WANTS the people think he is the only one that will take care of them- that is part of the control means he uses and the plan in order to keep people from revolting against them. I am sure he prevents the government from being able to help the people (plus most of the government is corrupt too) so that he is upheld as the hero amoung the people and garners the "love" and respect of the people, like he appears to have. Plus they are also afraid to say anything bad about him because he controls everything and has murdered so many people. Again, the terror he instills in people keeps them from speaking up against him.

I don't know if that's true or not, but I really had my eyes opened about the drug problem in this country when I saw the movie Traffic.  Made me see that we'd stop the drug traffic if we found a way to make people stop wanting the drugs.

Re: EL CHAPO HAS BEEN CAUGHT!!!!!!!!

Maybe it would be better if he was dead, cause where are they going to keep him?
