Billionaire drug lord El Chapo pens letter from prison, irked about lack of freedom

The 66-year old, born Joaquin Guzman, is in isolation with limited privileges. In a hand-written letter, he says he is not happy about the conditions of his daily life.

The three-and-a-half page letter penned in March was recently translated and posted in English in his court file. It asks for some procedural courtesies in his case, even though it is long over.

El Chapo also complains that the “conditions [here] are inhuman.” He writes that he’s “been in for a year and have only been authorized 9 telephone calls to my attorney.” Chapo states that “[This is] highly discriminatory.”
