Drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman will be extradited to the United States, the Mexican Attorney General's Office has announced.
Guzman was captured Friday after escaping Altiplano Federal Prison in July.
Authorities first arrested Guzman in Guatemala in 1993. They extradited him to Mexico and after his conviction and sent him to the Puente Grande maximum security prison. He escaped in 2001 and was recaptured in 2014, and sent to Altiplano.
U.S. Indictments claim his organization used assassins and hit squads to show its muscle. The Justice Department previously sought his extradition to the United States.
About time they get some of these mugs off the streets and into prison cells where they belong. They are nothing but the parasites of the earth.
