He was part of the team that helped put one of Mexico's most violent drug lords behind bars – the same one who escaped from a Mexican maximum-security prison over the weekend.
Tuesday, KOB talked to Michael Vigil, a former DEA agent from New Mexico who investigated Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman for years.
Vigil says Guzman's escape is not good for the U.S., especially our state. He says Guzman wants to push out the Juarez Cartel and push more heroin through New Mexico.
"Chapo Guzman has taken over that area and he controls most of the routes into the United States along the 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexico border, so he is literally funneling drugs into New Mexico," Vigil said.
He says he also believes if and when "El Chapo" is caught, the U.S. will fight to have him extradited to our country – not only to face trafficking charges here, but to make sure he doesn't escape again.
I’m sure he will be in cahoots with the Clinton cartel.
And, ElChapo is smart enough to [NEVER-EVER] have a deadly weapon in his hand when the Federales / US-po-po come calling.
As long as he is alive, no jail or prison will hold him. According to NM/TX rules, he needs to be terminated by lead-poisoning. Having been convicted and subsequently escaped custody, I’d say...
OPEN SEASON for LEO.
Deem him armed and dangerous and whack him on sight. LEO can suffer the “inquisition” but, all-totaled, that LEO will disappear into the dustbin of history [while being a champion of the USA].
I’m glad we’re only getting the fruits of their Top Notch, BEST criminals.
Yeh....so he won’t escape....just like those 2 guys in NY at a maximum security prison.
Guzman has plenty of gang support in Texas and Texas gangs have plenty of Freeper support (sadly.) So of course they would be howling and whining across the universe if one of their idols was whacked.
Remember that huge drop in the Mexican drug trade when El Chapo was put in prison? Yeah, me neither.
Are you suggesting that government policy should be judged by outcomes rather than activity?!
‘El Chapo’ wants to push Juarez Cartel out, funnel drugs through NM
That is unfair! He should have to compete fairly like everyone else.......
Dare to dream.
