A son of former Sinaloa cartel leader Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán has pleaded not guilty in federal court in Chicago.
The former teenage beauty queen has two children with El Chapo. She was released from federal custody and will remain on supervised leave for two years.A larger than usual contingent of seven security staff stood in the courtroom, with one facing the court benches and watching visitors.
Mexican security forces captured Guzmán López, known as “the Mouse,” in January in Culiacan, capital of Sinaloa state, the cartel’s namesake. His arrest set off violence that left 30 people dead, including 10 military personnel. Mexico’s army used Black Hawk helicopter gunships against the cartel’s truck-mounted .50-caliber machine guns.
Three years earlier, the government tried to capture him, but aborted the operation after similar violence. The U.S. indictments against the brothers that were unsealed in April said their goal was to produce huge quantities of fentanyl and sell it at the lowest price. The brothers denied the allegations in a letter.
“We have never produced, manufactured or commercialized fentanyl nor any of its derivatives,” the letter said. “We are victims of persecution and have been made into scapegoats.”
