    Report: 2nd tunnel had to be built to release 'El Chapo' after 1st one came up in wrong cell

    December 09, 2016



    As if one weren’t embarrassment enough for the Mexican government, news have surfaced of a second mile-long tunnel built by “El Chapo” Guzmán's henchmen to break the kingpin out of jail.

    The first attempt, sources quoted by Proceso magazine said, had to be aborted because it came up in the wrong cell.

    One of the officials who interrogated Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzmán soon after he was recaptured almost a year ago said that the man wouldn’t stop boasting about how easy it was to manipulate and exploit the corruption network at El Altiplano prison.

They must have had a real engineer to work this; I can't begin to think about the logistics of building a tunnel right up to a particular prison cell. It sounds like a real feat.
