He should be tortured for the things hes done to my people. People like him are the biggest threat to Mexico and the United States. Make an example of him

America created the demand to prosecute the citizen of another nation. Imagine an American billionaire drug dealer being extradited to Mexico. What if he says my bosses were American government, and this is a blackmail because i refused to work for them any longer. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dang only 30 minutes? Wonder why. Seems like a decent enough guy🤷‍♂️

Reply with ASK MICHELLE ..dude.. and u will get off just like apostle taylor bro.... now u know that they will find this lawyers on the boarder... one part here ,one part over there

LET HIM GO.

Is he ok

1 witness he's a big time drug dealer,so 1 person knows he sells drug's!!!!!!!!!!!!Cool

What a guy

Meanwhile, underneath a high-security federal cell in Manhattan...

This is an obvious sham - any time I tried to press charges on someone I was told it had to be initiated where the crime was committed or originated from. He was not physically in the USA. It’s jealousy that he was making ALMOST as much as our government does dealing drugs.

What if he get off?

You will be found guilty and he will disappear just like Noriega did and it will suit Humanity well

Free el chApo!!!

Who was his lawyer, Phoenix Wright? XD

“ Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury. Vote Not guilty or else!. The defense rests. Thank you Your Honor”

'Just get me to prison so I can escape.'

Wat h he beat the chargers they already know he free smh

Ya...because there IS no defense

He doesn't care.. He probably doesn't think he'll be there long anyway.

Shittt

FREECHAPO!!!

I guess the Democrats want him released now? 😤

Does he already believe he has the right palms greased for an aquittal/escape? Seems crazy to put up such a defense without something up your sleeve if you're El Chapo

Hope the lawyers got enough retainer money to cover obtaining a new identity

mrsbumble97 The payroll is gigantic and the Assets are 2,000,000,000,000..00 quids. However corruption will be destroyed. 🇺🇸🙏

Death by firecrackers up butt

Great move by the defense. The prosecution did a stellar job of presenting 50 people who admitted to murder in exchange for a lessor sentence. The only person who hasn't admitted to murder, in this case, is ElChapo . You only need one to hang. HungJury mistrial

Oh he getting off.

See ya drug lord, murderer!

Thanks to the PSI El Chapo will have retribution😂

The feds basically put all witnesses on death row every prisoner is furnished a PSI that document States if you snitched or testified. Every gang in prison demands to see it. If you don't provide it your screwed. Most those guys will go thru hell or die. There's no way around it

advocatemnyama -With that, the defense rests, in 30mins? I have never done that. He is going to jail🤦🏾‍♀️

Focus on the breakout then...

30 mins? El Chapo defense team will be in my prayers if he doesn’t escape jail this.

We could have just built the wall to keep more guys like el chapo out with money the govt spent on this prosecution 😂

Chapos Defense

No entiendo el porqué el chapo está preso por varios delitos asimilo yo que son muchos años díganle ya cuántos años son & boten la llave ElChapo sale a juicio con mucha importancia suelten eso y continuen Policia pierde tiempo

🐐

Ratio of 30 minutes to the time prosecution spent ... it has to be a fraction of 1% nocase law gameover

I’m guess El Chapo is a free man

He dont care he will be out again in a week

He might have them all kill 🤨

Easy way to win on appeal...

How many people has El Chapo been responsible for killing? How many people has Putin had killed?

Free Chapo

I rest my case

I really hope he escapes or somehow found innocent. It'll be funny

toma34b

I can’t tell if this is confidence or giving up

And you said we don't need a wall hmm...

but the tunneling has been going on for 11 weeks ...

Real journalists would investigate this

This was probably a stronger defense than what his lawyers did.

igrafurume

Ni modo Chapo

El Chapo’s legal team:

I love him

FREE HIM TF!!! you addictive americans wont have a supplier with that pure shit 🤣🤣🤣🤣

That’s a pretty good defense I’d hang a jury on it

Poor El Chapo so misunderstood it was all just a big misunderstanding between him and ah....... everyone?

They don’t get paid by the hour.

Over 100,000,000 million indians where murder by the american goverment bit we look to demonize everyone else and look atbour history When will we right our wrongs?

Longest holocaust in mankind happen in north america

Give him the electric chair

At killing ppl that is stopping to help other civilians that have done nothing wrong dont be blind to the real truth that our goverment has no roght to even judge another person or even country

Should let him go the biggest dealers are the ones holding him 💁‍♂️

I understand has nothing do with it but before judging one man forbhis actions look to the goverment that is judging him at long history of hiding war crimes hek look at what wiki leaks exposed years ago millions of civilians killed in the gulf war videos of americans laughing

We know Mexican president took a bribe. Did any Americans or specifically politicians?

DEA

So riddle me this if hitler was so bad for killing 6+ million jews amd nazi germany was so so bad what about the american goverment and indians ? Where is the out rage? Im a republican patriot but i see amd think for myself we or our goverment isnt anybetter hell even slavery

Lol he can kiss his life goodbye. Dummy.

It’s over

Now execute him by a public hanging!

jimmyjamny Half hour 😮😮😂😂

El Chapo's defense

he innocent

The type of confidence I need in 2019

In Sinaloa, his replacement is waiting to take over! Drug trafficking will never stop! The US loves it’s illegal drugs! As long as someone is willing to buy illegal drugs, the Sinaloa Cartel will always be in business!

Wow, that's awfully... Short... *Laughs in Spanish*

They think Chapo was the biggest drug trafficker.

“Everything those guys just said is bullshit”.

I would never want to be a juror in that case... just sayin ~ ElChapo

He's innocent

Just kill him?

the US gov & mex gov personnel that run the drug trade should be on trial, not this puppet. that's all he is, a puppet. everyone knows US gov can't directly fund certain paramilitary groups, so they do it with drug money, keeps it off the books.

They bout to wash that boy
