Learning when secret judgment begins on El-Chapoïs

Among the 17 charges brought against him are “communicabled for murder”, “Narcotics specification” and “money laundering”. The world will be an eye and ears from New York, but procedures will be conducted in the most secret way possible for authorities.

So in secret, that in fact, even at this late stage, no one knows how to transport El Chapo to the court and back to the cell, or if it will have to, close Brooklyn Bridge during the hour of driving per month as long as the trial lasts.

The accused drug boss, whose name is Joachim Guzman, was sent to New York in early 2017. He had managed twice to escape from prison in the past: once hiding in a wheelchair (or at least so said) and another time using a tunnel to get out of the cell, and both times there was a wide network of collaborators and amazingly the sympathy of prison guards.

The truth is, federal prosecutors wrote in a memo after taking it in, it's hard to imagine a person with greater risk of escaping prosecution”.

The clearest thing has been that no ordinary prison was meant for him. So Guzman was sent to the Metropolitan Corresponding Centre (MCC), next to Manhattan Hall. It is one of America's safest detention centres, also known as “Little Gitmo”. Other names sent there may be mentioned as criminal John Gottti Sir. and an assistant to Osama bin Laden.

On the side is the fact that for the past 19 months, each of his appearances in court has demanded the closure of Brooklyn's citizen bridge so that dozens of police and emergency vehicles could accompany him on the way back. His lawyers say that, the donated show and the delays in traffic caused by him will most likely make the judges of “turn bitter against the accused.

Another possibility is for El Chapo to be accompanied by helicopter, as suggested by the “New York Times”. But the nearest “Helipati” is about a mile from the courtroom. On the other hand, clever criminal minds have shown from the history of the past that they can steal very simply helicopters and, if one of them leaves, then leave without allowing you to pull up roadblocks, transmits the tch.

Among the many security measures is that of keeping anonymously the names of judges who will be associated with escorts from American Marshalls every day while some witnesses can only speak with nicknames. Guzman, meanwhile, has been kept in solitary confinement and according to his lawyers, his mental state is getting worse.

This will probably be the most complicated trial Brooklyn City has seen over the years. Prosecutors are said to have shared more than 300 thousand pages of investigation with the defence party, including about 14,000 pages of witness statements. Guzman's lawyers have repeatedly asked for more time, but the judges have not given them. The fact is, as in the Gottti Jr trial. In 2005, Guzman is also the same defence attorney, Jeffrey Lichtman.
