“El Chapo” insists on annulment of conviction and his return to Mexico

Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán sent a new letter to the Eastern District Court of New York in which he requests to annul his conviction for drug trafficking and ordering his return to Mexico, this due to alleged irregularities in his trial and in his extradition process. 

“My name is Joaquín Guzmán from the country of Mexico who fights for my protection policy to obtain my release in relation to the erroneous verdict d "and the Eastern Court. This says the letter in English. I am writing on my representation that the courts violated my evidence policy," he wrote.

The letter obviously presents several syntax and spelling errors that make very complicated to understand El Chapo's request, but it refers to the fact that there was a lack of evidence in the trial that led him to a sentence. Furthermore, he claims that there was an erroneous process in the extradition that prevented him from remaining in Mexico, where he was treated fairly, as he says in the letter.

These letters have been addressed to the Western District Court, not directly to Judge Brian Cogan, who led their trial, For this reason, the petition was added to the judicial file along with four other letters that were sent in April and May. 

El Chapo claims that US authorities violated his right to the first and eighth amendments of the Constitution in the United States.

In April, El Chapo sent two letters, both in English. one from April 9 and another from April 10, in which addresses equitable protection of their rights, as well as the first and eighth amendments.

This Monday, the court released three more letters issued by the drug trafficker in the signed on April 23rd. El Chapo even states that in his appeal a new trial would have been ordered, although that evidently did not occur. The opinion requested an official stance from Mariel Colón, who remains registered as Chapo Guzmán's lawyer. However, no a response has been obtained.
