US prosecutors have requested a life sentence for Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada, co-founder of the Sinaloa Cartel. Prosecutors accused Zambada of being one of the world's most prolific and powerful drug lords, alleging he bribed the Mexican government at all levels with millions of dollars.
In a memorandum filed by the prosecution, it was stated that Zambada oversaw the transportation of millions of kilograms of drugs, including cocaine, fentanyl, and methamphetamine, into the US. It was also emphasized that the cartel used armed hitmen to achieve its goals, and the effects of violence and corruption spread to Mexico, the US, and the world.
Zambada's lawyer did not object to the life sentence, stating that his client admitted his crimes and did not obstruct justice. However, the lawyer requested that Zambada be held in a prison where he can access necessary medical services due to his chronic ailments. Zambada was reported to have been captured on July 25, 2024, along with the son of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán at an airport near New Mexico.
