Joaquín Guzmán López, also known as one of the 'Chapitos' and the son of former Sinaloa cartel boss Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán, is set to appear in federal court in Chicago following his recent arrest by US authorities. Guzmán López, along with Ismael 'El Mayo' Zambada, was taken into custody in a dramatic operation that involved alleged betrayal and intrigue.
Guzmán López, 38, faces charges related to narcotics, money laundering, and firearms offenses. His attorney, Jeffrey Lichtman, expressed readiness to work on the case with his client. Zambada, the alleged co-founder of the cartel, also faces multiple charges, including continuing criminal enterprise and money laundering.
