El Chapo's sons confirm plea deal talks with US authorities

abc7ny.com

The sons of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman are in talks with U.S. authorities about a potential plea deal. This confirmation comes from their attorney during a court hearing in Chicago, ending months of speculation about their cooperation. Ovidio Guzman appeared in court, where he acknowledged his attorney's representation of both him and his brother, Joaquin. The brothers face separate cases, despite their shared legal representation. Joaquin was arrested in July, while Ovidio has been in custody for a year. The discussions about a plea deal suggest the possibility of the brothers admitting guilt, which could lead to a more lenient outcome from prosecutors.
