Mexico's President says 'El Chapo' May be in the U.S.

Los Angeles Times
Mexican President Felipe Calderon told an American newspaper the world's most wanted drug lord, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, may be living in the United States.

"He is not in Mexican territory, and I suppose that Chapo is in American territory," Calderon said in comments published this week in the New York Times, according to a Spanish-language transcript the newspaper later published online.

The president added: "The surprising thing here is that he or his wife are so comfortable in the United States, which leads me to ask, well, how many families or how many Mexican drug lords could be living more calmly on the north side of the border than on the south side? What leads Chapo Guzman to keep his family in the United States?'"

Calderon was responding to a question that referred to a Los Angeles Times report that Guzman's wife had given birth to twin girls in an L.A. County hospital in August.

He said reporters should ask "American customs authorities" why Emma Coronel, 22, wasn't detained while inside the U.S. (A senior law enforcement official told The Times that authorities had tracked Coronel, a U.S. citizen, to Southern California but did not arrest her because no charges are pending against her.)

U.S. authorities have said they believe that Guzman is probably hiding out in the remote mountainous region of western Mexico, where he started his drug empire.

The president's office declined to elaborate on Calderon's comments. No response came from relevant agencies in the U.S. government.

But the almost casual declaration from Mexico's president that Guzman was assumed to be in the United States sparked an outburst of political chatter and confounded even longtime Mexico watchers.

"He's defensive, and what does he have to show for six years?" said George W. Grayson, a U.S. analyst.

Since taking office in 2006, Calderon has deployed troops in a bloody war against drug traffickers that has claimed tens of thousands of lives but, according to a recent U.S. government report, made no significant dent in the multibillion-dollar narcotics market in the United States.

His predecessor, fellow conservative Vicente Fox, has called for legalizing drugs and made headlines this week by repeating suggestions that Mexico's leaders negotiate a cease-fire with the cartels.

Guzman, meanwhile, remains at large.

  14. Talk about corrupt police! Chief Agustin Dovalina , agent Hale and many others were fired from their jobs and put in jail for transporting and escorting drug shipments with their official vehicles for the drug cartels, Laredo City Major Raul Salinas, was a former FBI Agent with close ties to Esparragoza aka El Azul, Neto Fonseca , Rafael Caro Quintero and Manuel Salcido Uzueta aka El Cochiloco. what about that just for a small town like Laredo, Tx.

  21. @Minor600

    Your right they only report the bad. I'm from Durango and he is loved over there. Why?? Builds roads and schools, etc. His people actually fill the void of police. Any problems or issue, let them know they will take care of it. I'm not in favor of any cartel. I'm just saying what I see.

  22. 10:13 am Does the US goverment really know where el chapo is???? Ooh so they just wanna wait for the Chapo Guzman to finish the Zetas & The Juarez Cartel & The Beltran Leyvas & CAF,damm that sounds alot like ignorence.

    Chapos time as the Untouchable (by the goverment of course) is almost over,2012.Thats why you hear even Calderons goverment already asking publicly about his whereabouts.All the biggest drug lords have fallen.EX:Pablo Escobar,Amado Carillo,Don Neto,Miguel Felix Gallardo,Rafael Caro Quintero,Julio Beltran Quintero,Arturo Beltran,El Mochomo,Osiel Cardenas,...Chapos not the exception.

  24. Wasn't President [sic]Calderon chillando the other day about the US deporting too many MEXICAN criminals back to MEXICO??? So what's his problem then if we just have one more of his MEXICAN criminals over here. I thought that's what he wanted.

  26. Why wouldn't anyone in The Game bring their families to the U.S. in the face of so much corruption and impunity in Mexico? Getting here would be no problem, what with so many Border Patrol and Customs agents in the employ of the cartels, so swafe passage isn't a concern. Once here, it's a simple matter to fade into the background, since freedom of movement here is an easy matter, and civil liberties, though eroded, are are held in much higher esteem here than down south.
    The whole thing makes perfect sense. Additionally, ony 2 out of a hundred murders ends in a conviction down there, so LE up here is much more on the ball in general, corrupt agents aside. Much easier to assure security, once here.

  42. Fox say's call a truce with the cartels. Wonderful effin idea !!

    The government has already lost the war and the elite think they can now negotiate with these groups.

    Chapo is hiding in the mountains of Sinaloa and Calderon knows if issues an order to the military to capture him there will be massive casualties. That is, if the military doesn't have a exodus of troops resign first.

  43. No Se Porque No Entienden Que a El Chapo No Lo Atraparan Y Si Lo Hacen Se Volvera a Escapar Como Lo Hizo En Puente Grande!!!

  44. The US knows where El Chapo is. It isn't time yet to take him out. I promise you, he is not living it up. He is hiding with his tail between his legs waiting for the inevitable. Would someone tell Fox to shut up? It was his ignorant government that allowed drug cartels to have total control in Mexico. Fox is a coward!

  45. Michael Jackson faked his DEATH. (To get out of a future bet he lost on a Colts-Saints game. He always bet on the Colts)

    Chapo and Lazca are faking their EXISTANCE. O sea, they're just the faces made up to represent these groups that are really being run by rich businessmen on both sides of the border. (You'll never catch someone who is already dead)
