Mexico: Prison Escape of Top Drug Lord Major Blow to Gov't

2015-07-13 20

The successful and astonishing escape of top Mexican drug lord Joan "El Chapo" Guzman from a maximum security prison over the weekend is a major blow to the prestige of President Enrique Peña Nieto's administration. The 2-hour delay in notifying government and military authorities of "El Chapo"'s prison break raises suspicions of complicity by prison officials, 31 of whom have been detained and are being interrogated.
