‘EL CHAPO’ GUZMAN

-

Drug lord with a long history of jailbreaks will be moved to Colorado’s foolproof Supermax prison Joaquin Guzman, convicted on Tuesday of drug-traffickin­g, may be sent to the Supermax jail, a facility so secure and so remote that it’s often called the ‘Alcatraz of the Rockies’

2 The drug lord known as ‘El Chapo’ has an unparallel­ed record of prison breaks, having escaped two high-security prisons in Mexico before his ultimate capture and extraditio­n to the US

3 Supermax's hardened buildings house America’s most violent offenders, with many of its 400 inmates held alone for 23 hours a day in tiny cells with furnishing­s made of reinforced concrete.
