The northern prison where authorities suddenly transferred convicted drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán is rated as the worst in Mexico’s federal penitentiary system for inmate conditions and other factors, according to the government’s own reporting.
The Cefereso No. 9 facility on the outskirts of Ciudad Juárez, which borders El Paso, Texas, did score well on “conditions of governability,” perhaps an indication that authorities believe they can control Guzmán’s environment there and limit the risk of him pulling off a third brazen jailbreak.

Oh, there's no question about it. Money talks, El Chapo walks.
I’m sure he will soon meet whatever bribe demands for what will get him comfortable living conditions.
Obama, Holder and Hillary handed Juarez to Sinaloa on a silver platter, with Fast and Furious. Shorty will be out and about within weeks. This is part of the deal, no doubt. Expect news of his demise soon. Then he can go live in Cuba in peace, with his buddy Sean Penn.
The guy has killed hundreds, maybe thousands.
Just shoot the SOB.

Hey - maybe we could get Geraldo to do that with Sean Penn’s help.... Can’t picture either of them even knowing which end of the shovel might get the job done.
“Hey - maybe we could get Geraldo to do that with Sean Penn’s help...”
Please, you’ve just ruined my first cup of coffee! These two shameful bastards need to be IN PRISON, not helping to dig out El Chapo. (s)
