El Chapo will appear for sentencing at 9:15 am EDT this morning at the Brooklyn Federal Court House.
No mysteries await us. He faces a mandatory life sentence with plenty of additional time on top of that and has no chance of ever seeing the light of day again.
More importantly, very soon after sentencing, he will begin the trip that will take him to ADX Florence, where he will live out his days in almost total isolation.
think about it spending 23/H a day completely isolated from the outside world with no interaction with anyone outside of the guard that take you from your cell to a slightly larger cell.
Pretty much the only facility that El Chapo could be held at. It is designed in such a way as to thwart outside attempts to break a prisoner out. Short of a full scale military assault, none of El Chapo’s cohorts are going to be able to break him out of there.
He went out by helicopter immediately after his sentencing and left New York City on a United States Marshal’s aircraft. Given the amount of time, it is quite possible he is already in ADX Florence.
