The Mexican drug kingpin was convicted on Tuesday after a three-month drug trial in New York that exposed the inner workings of his sprawling cartel, which over decades shipped tons of drugs into the United States and plagued Mexico with relentless bloodshed and corruption.

The guilty verdict against the kingpin, whose real name is Joaquín Guzmán Loera, might have ended the Mexican drug lord career. Knowing El Chapo though he will probably make an attempt of escaping.

Judge Brian M. Cogan read the jury’s charge sheet in open court, 10 straight guilty verdicts on all 10 counts of the indictment which means El Chapo now faces life in prison at his sentencing hearing, scheduled for June 25.
