Episode 71: The Extradition of Ovidio Guzman -- What Happened and What It Means

Cartels, Conspiracies, and Camarena

In this Episode, we look at the September 15 extradition of Ovidio Guzman and his plea of not guilty in a Chicago federal court. We also examine the impacts his prosecution may have had, or later have, on the Sinaloa Cartel, Los Chapitos, the flow of drugs, including fentanyl, into the U.S., and our understanding of the growth and survival of cartels in Mexico. Finally, we discuss the potential for retribution and a possible revenge warning from Ovidio's brother, Ivan.
