Sinaloa Cartel co-founder Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada has been mostly isolated in a Brooklyn prison since last September as he faces a series of charges in the U.S. that could potentially get him the death penalty.
As "El Mayo" awaits for developments in the case, including requests to be repatriated to Mexico and, alternatively, reaching a plea deal to avoid being executed, his lawyer gave details about his daily life and how he seeks to maintain mental stability despite the lack of contact with the outside world.
