In 2011, 35 men and women were tortured and killed, while the Sinaloa Cartel left a banner claiming responsibility for these kills. Then in 2012, 14 headless bodies were sent to the mayor’s office while the cartel took responsibility for that also. The list just goes on forever, and Guzman, being one of the cartel's leaders, is responsible for this. Guzman pleaded not guilty in U.S. court on January 20, 2016 for 17 counts. Who would want this man to be released one day and be able to walk among the same streets as our family, friends, and children?
Finally, one of the main reasons Joaquín Guzman is known is because of his extremely long history of drug trafficking. The Sinaloa took control of the cocaine trade extending from South America to the United States, under Guzman’s control. Sinaloa Cartel has also trafficked heroin, marijuana and methamphetamine into the United States.

    In the early 1980s, Guzmán was introduced to Miguel "El Padrino" Ángel Félix Gallardo himself. Gallardo put him in charge of logistics -- effectively coordinating plane flights, boat arrivals and trucks coming from Colombia into Mexico. El Güero still controlled deliveries to clients in the United States, but Guzmán would soon work directly for El Padrino himself. Although early on Guzmán lived in Guadalajara, as did Gallardo, his command and control center was actually located in Agua Prieta, Sonora. After Félix Gallardo's capture, Guzmán took control of the entire Sinaloa Cartel.[2][8] Guzmán is wanted by the governments of Mexico and the United States and by INTERPOL;[9] so far he has…

    The Drug Cartel

    • 876 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Since Felipe Calderón took office in 2006, the Mexican government's focus has been to put down the drug-related violence that was raging between different drug cartels before any military intervention was made, and to dismantle the powerful drug lords. He took action immediately, deploying 50,000 soldiers in an effort to reclaim his country from the violent cartels that ran the streets. Since then, almost 50,000 soldiers, government employees, cartel members, and innocent citizens have died as a result of drug-related violence. This is mostly due to the cartels’ superior funding: experts believe that Mexican drug cartels make anywhere from 13.6 to 49.4 billion dollars annually, and employ roughly one hundred thousand foot soldiers (roughly the size of the Mexican army). This impressive income is due in part to Mexico’s geographic location: their northern neighbor is none other than the largest free market in the world.…
