The American people love big trials. Throughout American history criminal trials have been a huge deal for the media and for citizens. Today, the jury selection process has started for drug lord El Chapo.
This selection is comparable to to the jury selections of Al Capone and Timothy McVeigh. Capone and the mob tormented the American people throughout the early 20th century. McVeigh exposed the reality of homegrown terrorism. El Chapo brought drugs across the border and tormented and intimidated American AND Mexican people. All of these people were or are among the most hated and most infamous of their time. All of these people have faced or will face justice.
