The fate of women who have been couples of "El Chapo" Guzmán

Being the most famous capo couple in the world, it's having its place in the history of the crime, but in many cases it also means that you have to pay a high price.

Before the criminologist officially recognized 10 couples, some of whom had very bad offspring: they were arrested or were under the eye of the highest echelons of the American police, although there was also the case one of her friends tortured brutally before dying.

His body was found in the trunk of a car on December 17, 2008. In several parts of the body, the letter "Z" was marked, the initial of one of the Sinaloa cartel's rivals who hated the most "Chapo": The zetas.

The journalist Alejandro Almazán said Infobae another version of Zulema's murder. Her source was a person very close to the ancient "Chapo" Guzmán, who had told her that she and her brother had committed a robbery that had cost them their lives.

Zulema had an affair with Guzmán Loera during his stay in the high security prison of Puente Grande, Jalisco, where they met each other.

His full name was Zulema Yulia Hernández. She was raised by a prostitute and grew up in a flawed street environment. He has never met his father.

But before the uproar and control at Reclusorio East, the prison authorities decided to transfer him to a maximum security prison.

It is there that he met Chapo Guzmán, who had the power to bring all kinds of women into his cell. Zulema was one of them.

In an interview with journalist Julio Scherer, Zulema spoke about the "traumas" that he shared with the capo, trying to explain the link that had united them for some time:

"The same fear that he felt was felt by me, it was a thread of understanding between us, I too was poor, I suffered a lot and I suffer until I get sick. Now an unbearable mother. " He suffered the yoke of a father, the abandonment of the father, the fact that he took him out of his house and sent him to work with his grandfather, to the earth, day and night, he lived it and how he overcame it, how he had to defeat himself, how he had to become a man of the kind and all the empire he did. " , did he declare.

Later, he confessed that only "he held a call"with the capo, who from the prison would have sought advice in the face of alleged attacks on their children by minors during naval raids on their properties.

The local Congress withdrew constitutional protection as legislator. She fled Sinaloa and was arrested in the United States in 2017, where she applied for political asylum, which she was denied because in Mexico she was wanted by the courts.

He was escaped by a tunnel leading to his cell. According to his statement, the colonel reportedly spoke to the other cartel members to coordinate the escape and could even have infiltrated the prison with a GPS watch to guide the diggers.
