The process can still be appealed, meaning it could be weeks or months before the Sinaloa cartel leader may be sent to the U.S., where he is wanted in multiple jurisdictions on charges related to drug trafficking and organized crime.

Why does teamobama want his so much? It wasn’t that long ago Mexico said no to this, I think it was El Chapo then too?

To keep him quiet, Our Government is and has been in bed with the Cartels since WE Created them.They work for us. Ask yourself why we sent the Military in to Paname to get Noriega, never to be heard from again.

Noriega held a Press Conference and threatened to release documents regarding the US Involvement in the Drug Trade, we went in the Next Day.

Spot on. We were moving the cocaine during Iran Contra. It’s all in the open and declassified. Col. North was the largest Drug Czar in the western hemisphere.
