The US should have demanded they turn him over to us immediately.
Sigh.
Demand they turn over a
Meixcan citizen convicted of crimes
in Mexico to the US?
Lets flip that round Ivy:
Imagine Mexico
demanding the US turn over an
American citizen convicted of crimes
in America to Mexico?
Thats what I thought.
It would actually be a good idea to lock up all big-time criminals in foreign countries, not their own, so they are cut off from the sourse of power. For example, half of the Russian mafia leadership is wanted in other countries, I wonder what would have happened if everyone of them would be turned over to the country he is wanted in. So I think it would actually be better if Chapo went to prison in the USA, not in Mexico. In his country he is like a fish in water, even in jail which isn't "waterproof".
Exchanging prisoners between countries while they are doing time would create chaos in organized crime. A pity it's just a fantasy...
