Former cartel boss Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada has pleaded guilty in a U.S. courtroom, apologizing for flooding America with drugs. Alongside Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, he built the Sinaloa Cartel into one of the world’s most powerful trafficking networks. His plea in Brooklyn marks a dramatic fall for a man once considered untouchable. Trump’s Attorney General Pam Bondi hailed the conviction as a landmark victory, promising Zambada will spend the rest of his life in a U.S. prison. Arrested in Texas last year, Zambada insists he was kidnapped in Mexico and handed over against his will. DEA chief Terry Cole called the case a defining moment in the decades-long war on cartels, as the Trump administration ramps up its crackdown, even branding cartels as terrorist organizations. Bondi also highlighted that Mexico’s refusal to allow the death penalty continues to shape extradition agreements with the U.S.
