Sinaloa Cartel Leader 'El Mayo' Zambada Agrees to Transfer to New York

Federal judge must approve the move after Zambada drops opposition to facing charges in Brooklyn.

Ismael 'El Mayo' Zambada, co-founder of the Sinaloa cartel, was arrested in July near El Paso.
Zambada faces multiple drug-related charges in various U.S. jurisdictions, including New York and Texas.
A judge initially denied the transfer request, but new filings show Zambada and his attorneys now agree to it.
The transfer requires final approval from U.S. District Judge Kathleen Cardone.
Zambada's case in Texas will proceed after the New York trial concludes.
