Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum celebrated the guilty plea of Sinaloa Cartel co-founder Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, saying detractors were saying her administration was "chasing shadows."
"When we started, we were told we were chasing shadows," Sheinbaum added. She went on to say that the guilty plea marks the "collapse of the empire," referring to the fact that Zambada co-founded the Sinaloa Cartel. Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, the other co-founder of the cartel, has been in prison for years at a Colorado maximum security facility.
