Lincoln Anthony (8th Period)- "Mexico moving captured drug lord 'El Chapo' from cell to cell"

One of the biggest recent arrests is definitely the arrest of the infamous Mexican drug lord Joaquin Guzman, more commonly referred to as "El Chapo". His arrest is such a big deal especially because he had been arrested and put into a maximum security prison twice before, escaping both of those times. In lieu of this, the Mexican government is taking extra steps in his security, some of which include extensive video monitoring that covers all areas of his cell, something that he had used to his advantage before, and of course moving him from cell to cell every couple of days or even hours.

I think that it's just absolutely fantastic to hear that  a criminal as dangerous as El Chapo is finally off the streets, and hopefully it will stay that way. He is really one of the most dangerous people I think who has been on the streets. I sincerely hope that because of this arrest, Mexico will become somewhat of a safer place. I also hope that his empire will eventually crumble and some uncorrupted authority can be instated. I suppose this is all just wishful thinking because El Chapo is obviously completely able to rule over his empire from within prison.
