About Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán in brief
Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán Loera (; born 4 April 1957) is a Mexican drug lord and former leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. He is considered to have been the most powerful drug trafficker in the world. He was first captured in 1993 in Guatemala and was extradited and sentenced to 20 years in prison in Mexico for murder and drug trafficking. He bribed prison guards and escaped from a federal maximum-security prison in 2001. His status as a fugitive resulted in an USD 8. 8 million combined reward from Mexico and the U.S. for information leading to his capture, and he was arrested in Mexico in 2014. He escaped prior to formal sentencing in 2015, through a tunnel under his jail cell. In 2019, he was found guilty of a number of criminal charges and is currently serving a life sentence at ADX Florence. His father was officially a cattle rancher, as were most in the area where he grew up; according to some sources, he might also have been a gomero, an opium poppy farmer. He has two younger sisters named Armida and Bernarda and four younger brothers named Miguel Ángel, Aureliano, Arturo, and Emilio. He had three unnamed older brothers who reportedly died of natural causes when he was very young. As a child, he sold oranges and dropped out of school in third grade to work with his father.
He endured physical abuse at the hands of his father and also entered the drug trade through his father, helping him grow marijuana for local dealers during his early adulthood. For many generations, his family lived at La Tuna, Badiraguato, Mexico. The nearest school to his home was 60 miles away, but he was taught by traveling teachers for a few months before moving to other areas. He turned to the cultivation of opium poppy, a common practice among local residents. Once the plant was stacked in kilos, his father sold the harvest to other suppliers in Culiacán and Guamúchús. He also sold marijuana at commercial centers near the area while accompanied by his father to cut the bud of the bud. He stood up to his dad to protect his younger siblings from being beaten. It is possible that Guzán incurred his father’s wrath for trying to stop him from beating them, however his mother, however, was his emotional support and was his foundation of the foundation of his life.
