Things You Didn’t Know About El Chapo
Not surprisingly, prison life doesn’t agree with him.
Many of us remember El Chapo from a few years ago when he made news with his alleged brutality and drug dealing. He also made news by his prison escapes.

I saw recently where El Chapo was complaining about life in prison. He called it, “cruel and unfair.” He also stated it was affecting his health. El Chapo listed as health issues, “headaches, memory loss, muscle cramps, stress and depression.”
