El Chapo's Son, Joaquín Guzmán López, to Change Plea in Drug Trafficking Case
On Monday, Joaquín Guzmán López, the son of Mexican drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, is set to alter his plea in a drug trafficking case. Initially pleading "not guilty," Guzmán López is anticipated to change his plea during a court hearing in Chicago. Federal prosecutors have confirmed that they will not pursue the death penalty for Guzmán López. In a separate case, another son of El Chapo, Ovidio Guzmán López, had previously pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges in July.
