JUST IN: A federal judge has sentenced Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman to life in prison plus 30 years, according to the US Attorneys for the Eastern District of New York. The court also ordered “El Chapo” to pay $12.6 billion in forfeiture.
El Chapo could serve his sentence at a prison that's "absolutely impossible" to escape fromThe United States Penitentiary Administrative Maximum Facility, also known as the ADX or"Supermax," in Florence, Colorado.
Guzman's history escaping prison has weighed on prosecutors' minds, both during his trial and after his conviction. Guzman escaped from Mexican prisons twice. In 2001 Guzman escaped by hiding in a laundry cart. He spent the next 13 years in hiding in and around his home state of Sinaloa. He was recaptured in 2014, but he escaped from the Mexican prison a second time, on July 11, 2015, through a tunnel his associates built directly into his cell.
