Emma Coronel Aispuro, the wife of Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, is set to be released from a US prison on Wednesday, officials said.
Coronel was sentenced to three years in prison in November 2021 after pleading guilty to drug trafficking and money laundering charges related to her husband’s narcotics empire. Her sentence also included four years of supervised release and a forfeiture of $1.5 million.
“For privacy, safety, and security reasons, we do not elaborate on specific release plans,” a spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Prisons told CNN.
You’re missing the forest for the trees, and you’re not telling me anything I don’t already know. Her plea deal was too lenient, lots of other people in 100% identical circumstances would have been given the “deal” of ten years before being eligible for parole.
I agree with you on that, we just disagree about why she got such a lenient plea deal.
