El Chapo's Son Extradited to US to Face Drug Trafficking Charges

Ovidio Guzman Lopez, son of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, was extradited from Mexico to the US to face drug trafficking charges.
Guzman Lopez was a key figure in the Sinaloa cartel, overseeing fentanyl and methamphetamine operations generating huge profits.
He was briefly captured in 2019 in Mexico but released to avoid bloodshed before being recaptured in January 2021.
Guzman Lopez has been indicted in multiple US cities and faces charges related to trafficking fentanyl, meth, cocaine, and other drugs.
His extradition is seen as progress in the fight against Mexican cartels flooding the US with illegal synthetic opioids like fentanyl.
