Escape artist and drug kingpin Joaqu\u00edn “El Chapo” Guzm\u00e1n made two furtive visits to the United States last year while he was on the lam, his daughter has told the Guardian in an exclusive interview.<\/p>\n
Rosa Isela Guzm\u00e1n Ortiz, 39, a U.S. citizen, said her father sneaked into California to visit her in late 2015 at the large, five-bedroom home he purchased for her and her four children, the location of which was not disclosed. According to the Guardian, Guzm\u00e1n Ortiz owns a chain of small businesses, but she insisted that any money she received from her father was clean.<\/p>\n
Asked how her father managed to cross the heavily patrolled U.S. border with Mexico — whose alleged porousness has become a major theme of leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump — Guzm\u00e1n Ortiz declined to answer. “I asked him the same, believe me,” she said.<\/p>\n
Jacqueline Wasiluk, a Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman, said Friday the agency has “no information that substantiates the claims in news reports” about Guzm\u00e1n.<\/p>\n
Guzm\u00e1n’s Sinaloa cartel has engineered dozens of smuggling tunnels under the U.S. border over the past decade or more, but those are only the ones authorities know about. It wouldn’t have been difficult for Guzm\u00e1n to zip into California through one of the passageways, many of which have sophisticated ventilation systems and customized shuttle carts for moving drugs, guns, cash and people back and forth.<\/p>\n
