    Other than facing a few charges in the United States, El Chapo managed to escape any severe penalties and he soon earned the title, “Osama Bin Laden of drug trafficking.” In 1989, El Chapo was able to fund his own drug organization with the help of some of his former boss’s territory. His business, known as Sinaloa put him on the radar as one of Mexico’s most powerful and dangerous drug traffickers. “As the power of the Colombian drug cartels like Medellin and Cali began to wane, Sinaloa…. took control of the cocaine trade extending from South America to the United States.” (http://whereiselchapoguzman.com/) Sinaloa trafficked heroin, mariguana and methamphetamine into the United States, eventually expanding to five continents and grew into the biggest drug operation in the world. He produced gangs including “Los Chachos”, “Los Lobos” and “Los Negros” to protect his empire. “Over the years, Guzmán’s men have been accused of committing more than 1,000 murders throughout all of Mexico.”
