El’ Chapo’s guards were playing solitaire while he escaped from prison
Unconfirmed reports resurfaced Tuesday that escaped Mexican drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán allegedly upped his campaign against Donald Trump recently by putting a $100 million bounty on the American billionaire’s head.
Just in case you need a brief refresher, El Chapo, real name Joaquin Guzman, is the reputed drug kingpin who escaped from a Mexican prison via a motorcycle in an underground track for about a mile.
This isn’t the first time Trump has made enemies with El Chapo and his family.
However reports have also emerged that Trump has discretely asked the FBI to investigate the authenticity of these threats against him, telling various media outlets “the law is working very hard right now on the situation here”.
“He was mad. He wants Donald Trump dead and will pay any amount of money to have Donald Trump’s head”, a source says.
That post was followed immediately by another one suggesting someone would be killed, although it was not clear if that referred to Trump. El Chapo, that guy whose life is so undeniably similar to the plot of the greatest AMC series you’ve never seen, is still running from those not keen on his most recent prison escape.
The kingpin’s second jail collapse was a us exasperation, and of course the humiliate has likely deepened once peace of mind footage have reported what the watches were usually doing when you’re El Chapo have been lost from his lodge. Trump argued that Guzman’s escape is further proof that a wall should be built to separate the United States from Mexico.
View of the hole in the shower of the Almoloya prison El Chapo was and through which he escaped, on July 15, 2015 in Almoloya de Juarez, Mexico. “Kick him around like a soccer ball?”
However, a little bit more discreetly, Trump asked the FBI to investigate the alleged death threats made by El Chapo against him.
Mike Vigil, a retired U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration operations chief, has commented that if Guzman was not found two days after his escape, the chances of finding him have probably gone in the wind.
“If he is able to make his way to Sinaloa, his native state, and gets into that mountainous range, it’s going to be very hard to capture him because he enjoys the protection of local villagers”, Vigil said.
