Escape Dreams: How 'El Chapo' Tries to Leave Supermax and Remain at the Helm of His Cartel
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
No one has escaped from the Supermax prison in Colorado since it opened in 1994. The incarcerated drug trafficker known as 'El Chapo' had an escape plan, but it was not the bold type he previously used in Mexico to break out of prison: riding a motorcycle through a secret tunnel. 'El Chapo's' new plan to leave the most secure prison in the United States was simply to ask authorities to keep the door open for him. Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán became a billionaire leading the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico, which, according to federal agents, remains responsible for the majority of illegal drug sales on the streets of Chicago and across the United States. A decade ago, 'El Chapo' was captured in a shootout in Mexico; extradited to the United States, he was sentenced to life in prison at the Supermax facility in Colorado, from which no one has managed to escape in over 30 years of operation.
