El Chapo granted a short continuance, New trial date in November 5th

Chivis Martinez for Borderland Beat

A partial victory for El Chapo, jury selection begins November 5th

Joaquín “El Chapo Guzmán’s trial has been continued to November 5, 2018. The defense had asked for an extension of 5 months,.  The added time was to be allowed sufficient time to, review the massive amounts  of information forwarded  by the government earlier this month.

In commenting on the ruling, Eduardo Balarezo, El Chapo’s defense attorney said;
"Mr. Guzman is highly disappointed with the decision to continue the trial for only two months. Given the immense amount of information dumped upon the defense by the government at the last minute, Mr. Guzman thought a 5 month continuance was appropriate. He believes that the prosecution is purposely playing games in an effort to deny him a fair trial and trusts that an impartial jury will see through the smoke and mirrors at trial.”
Full docket text:

ORDER granting in part and denying in part [262] Motion to Continue Trial and to Preclude as to Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera. In light of the Government's recent voluminous discovery production to defendant, the trial is adjourned for 60 days. Jury selection will begin Monday, November 5, 2018 in Courtroom 8D South with trial to follow. The Court will file separately a scheduling order resetting relevant dates based on the new trial date. As to the motion to preclude, the Court declines to grant a blanket order precluding the Government from using at trial any evidence produced after June 26, 2018. So Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 7/16/2018.

  3. Buenas suertes señor Chapo. I hope this trial exposes the unjust DOJ, even if you are a drug dealing slimeball.

  4. Just a token continuance. The US is making a mockery of it's own justice system. Just play it straight up. You have more than enough to convict. Don't eff it all up.

  7. What the hell is Chapo fighting?? Is he trying to get one life sentence? Does he think he will be set free? The only way I see that happening is if he has the same judge of O.J

    1. With lack of evidence and people not wanting to testify he could get a short sentence probably 15 to 25 years like osiel and el 50

    2. If he’s in his early 60s, what’s so good about only 25 yrs in prison..... if he was down like he claims, he would have never let himself get cought.....always threw his hands in the air, raising the white flag..... and his kids, just like punk ass daddy..... la leche night club tells the whole story......

    4. Those guys don't fight. They cut you or shoot you. Or, pay someone to do it. A physically superior man, doesn't always make a superior being. Those guys don't wanna throw hands. Unless they are a Mexican boxer, and by your tone, I can tell you've never fought a Mexican boxer. Hands and chins of stone.

    2. The Flores twins killed their father, the minute they got in bed with CDS. They knew the deal, but they wanted money. Everybody owes, Everybody pays.

    3. This is not the mafia its a fucking peasant born drug lord who was to fucking violent for his own good. I wldnt be surprised if el mayo forced el chapo to give himself up for shitting the stick.And the dad shldnt been killed for the sons fuck ups. And thats why at the end of the day el chapo is an asshole who got whats coming to him. Anything less than a guilty plea and theyre going to throw the book at his ass.

    1. Why????? As long as he's alive, the story goes on. Think about it. He's so badass our mighty US gov is jeapordize it's judicial integrîty, by violating the rights of a person innocent until proven guilty. They are afraid of him. They know he will go to any length to save his ass, and if he can't, then he will take down allot of big shots on both sides of border. And, if they fuck this up, he will go down in history as the lil uneducated Mexican dope dealer who destroyed the American justice system. The El Chapo freight train is just leaving the station. Whatever dirt he has on the US, has them scrambling. He hasn't said anything yet. If they fuck up his rights, and charges dropped, they will bring new charges before he's released. Make no mistake....he will never be free. However, he can mess allot of shit up. I'm surprised he hasn't " died of a sudden stroke" yet. Just wait.
