TL;DR Summary

Ovidio Guzman, son of imprisoned Mexican drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, has been extradited to the United States to face fentanyl trafficking charges. The extradition is seen as a win for the Biden administration's efforts to combat the spread of the deadly opioid. U.S. officials consider Guzman and his brothers as major players in the fentanyl trade, which has contributed to the opioid epidemic in the United States. The extradition comes after the U.S. government requested it in February, and it marks a significant step in holding those responsible for fueling the opioid crisis accountable.
