I was glad to hear that he was found guilty of all charges. It was not surprising with the mountain of evidence. At age 61, he will die in Federal prison in the US.

I doubt that he'll be able to tunnel his way out of this one. Good riddance.

Hear, hear. And well done to the jury. That took some balls.

He'll likely end up at the supermax gray bar hotel here in Colorado. Not only will he die in prison, he won't see direct sunlight again.

He'll most certainly end up at the SuperMax facility in Colorado.

Someone else will take his place after a violent conflict in which many will be tortured and/or killed.

Someone has to supply americans with drugs that are currently illegal.

Ted Cruz wants him to pay for the wall.

Quote:
U.S. prosecutors are seeking to seize billions of dollars in assets connected to convicted drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said Tuesday that he believes the money should be used to build a border wall with Mexico.
In reference to Guzmán's conviction on 10 criminal counts — including drug trafficking, weapons violations and operating a continuing criminal enterprise — Cruz tweeted: "U.S. prosecutors are seeking $14 billion in drug profits & other assets from El Chapo which should go towards funding our wall to #SecureTheBorder."
Suffer Well.

this is best case scenario. Dems can't complain because the US isn't funding it and Repubs can claim Mexico really is paying for it. so much winning...
