Cartel expert says Sean Penn, del Castillo could be in serious danger

It’s been just over four months since Sean Penn met with the world’s most wanted drug lord, and things aren’t going as the actor had planned.

“My article has failed,” Penn told CBS’s Charlie Rose in an interview that will air on 60 Minutes this Sunday.

The Oscar winner was referring to the 10,000-plus word screed detailing his meeting this October with notorious Mexican cartel boss Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, and the events leading up to it. Rolling Stone published Penn’s article this past Saturday, following Guzman's capture six months after his Hollywoodesque escape from a maximum security prison this past July.

Penn had hoped that by interviewing the head of one of the world’s largest and deadliest drug cartels he could spark a meaningful dialogue about U.S. drug war policies. Instead, his interview is being credited with helping lead Mexican authorities to the evasive Guzman—a recognition the actor does not want.

Well cerainly conspiring at minimum! Without their help, none of it would have been possible. Truly, TRULY America and the world owe Peen and RS a YUUUUGE debt of gratitude for disrupting cartel operations to such a degree.

American heroes they are!

Another one will merely move in to take his place, or the bought-off government officials will still let him run things behind prison.

For sure. But That sneaky mole Sean Penn sure made the cartel look like backwoods rubes didn’t he? ;)

I hear Sean also has facilitated El Chapo transferring to an American prison where there will be an accidental operation. All planned by Sean I think, where El Chapo gets a sex change free by California Gov Brown to become El JennerO!

Penn forgot that it’s never a good idea to mix up fantasy with reality.

Yeah, except he dragged that sweet Latina actress into the disaster too. That bothers me a bit.

For him, I can only say:

"You have my sympathies."

Kate del Castillo must have confused the narco-novelas she has starred in, and ended up as the head of cartels with her brains and beauty with real life.

I most recently saw she was on Telenovela, a stupid show on NBC which I predict will not last long. That said, Kate and Sean may not even last as long as the show on NBC.

Well Sean is Hetro I guess but questioning. So it makes sense that the DEA reward him with his own personal toy for his abundant cooperation.

“Again I want to congratulate Sean Penn and the full staff of Rolling Stone for helping plan the capture of El Chapo.”

It’s hard to even imagine how easily Rolling Stone and Sean Penn were able to cut the head off the Cartel snake.

The depression and anger filling the Cartel ranks must be unbearable considering how foolish Sean Penn and Rolling Stone made them look in front of the entire world.

I hope they send wave after wave of sicarios after him.

I hope he becomes so toxic that NOBODY wants the liberal piece of crap around.

I hope the effort to take him out so disgusts every body else that he is shunned, avoided, ducked and eventually driven so far underground that every one will just assume he is dead and buried.

Couldn't happen to a nicer limousine liberal.

I do hope that no innocent lives become endangered, but since he's primarily in Hollywood and Los Angeles, there's not much chance of that.

El Chapo will be living it up in prison like the mobsters did in Goodfellas.

Sean stated that he is not afraid, however, he does not realize that the Cartel can go after his kids.

And certain ex-wives.

Lol!
Penn getting tossed to the sharks.
And it would never dawn on him that the only one to blame is himself and his bloated ego.
