The man widely known as "Shorty" (Spanish "El Chapo"), was born in a poor village in Mexico. The exact year is unconfirmed, but he is believed to be around 60 years old. He has a gentle demeanor, and if you saw him walking down the street, you might mistake him for a friendly uncle selling watermelons. However, on the morning of November 5th, 2018, the transportation of this man led to the complete shutdown of the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. Standing at only 168cm tall, he is labeled by the U.S. government as the "drug lord," deemed "the most ruthless, dangerous, and feared man on Earth."
On that day, Joaquín Guzmán was escorted to the Eastern District Federal Court in New York, where he is set to face a trial that could last up to four months.
