It has been nearly 10 years since Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán was sentenced to life in prison for his role as a co-founder and leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. Despite being confined in a cell inside the maximum-security ADX Florence prison, his name continues to make headlines.
Earlier this month, El Chapo again became a major topic in Mexican media after sending letters to U.S. prosecutors asking them to reconsider his case and transfer him back to Mexico. In the letters, he claimed prosecutors blamed him for crimes he did not commit while shifting the blame towards Mexican officials.
