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.

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

Ovidio Guzmán, the son of notorious drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, has been extradited to the US on drug trafficking charges. He is suspected of leading the Sinaloa drug cartel, founded by his father, and is also accused of ordering the murder of a singer who refused to perform at his wedding. Ovidio was arrested in January in Mexico and has been in custody since then. The extradition comes after the release of El Chapo's wife, Emma Coronel, from jail. The Sinaloa cartel is known for smuggling large quantities of drugs into the US and engaging in violent activities to maintain its power.
