A 66-year-old Mexican drug lord named Joaquin Guzman also known as “El Chapo” pleaded with the federal judge to let him see his wife and 9-year-old twin daughters in a Colorado prison, wherein the Mexican drug lord was serving a life sentence and another 30 years in prison.
According to a report published in CBS News, the Mexican drug lord claimed in his plea that he wanted his wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, to visit him as his sisters and mother could not travel to Colorado due to a lack of travel visas and the Mexican drug lord wanted to see his daughters.
