Joaquín “El Chapo is 51 years old.
DETAIL OF INCIDENCE:
Felipe Cabrera Sarabia faces a minimum of 10 years and up to life in prison when he is sentenced on July 7.
Known as “The Engineer,” Sarabia allegedly ran operations for the multi-billion-dollar Sinaloa drug cartel before he was arrested in 2015.
He told U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman through an interpreter on Friday that he “always made a living as a cattle rancher,” according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
Sarabia’s guilty plea comes after Guzman was sentenced to life in prison in 2019 for his 25-year reign as the head of the Sinaloa drug cartel.
Guzman’s son, Ovidio Guzmán, was arrested by Mexican police earlier this month in the Mexican city of Culiacan.
