Sinaloa Cartel’s co-founder Ismail “L. Mayo” Zamba is ready to face the rest of his life behind bars as the Trump administration enhances its efforts to eliminate the cartel.
75 -year -old Zambada confessed to a court room in Brooklyn on Monday that he coordinated with Mexican officials for smuggling drugs in the US for decades – and eventually convicted to serve as a continuous criminal enterprise and a prominent leader of a conspiracy conspiracy.
The Trump administration has promised to take Cartel down-and experts predicted Jamba’s guilty petition that there is a way to put more pressure on Mexico for proceeding to start more prosecution against high-profile cartel members for the Department of Justice and to follow American requests.

A retired supervisory special agent Brian Townsand with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) gave Trump a powerful political length, “Fox News Digital told on Monday.” I hope that he will use this moment for a more aggressive cross and boarder operations and public support for difficult measures against Mexico.
“Zambada admitted in the court that he paid for decades to Mexican generals, governors and politicians,” said Townsend. “These are direct words from the mouth of one of the world’s largest drug smugglers. It confirms what we have been looking for: Mexico institutions have been deeply compromised.”
Cartel Boss requires $ 15 billion for Zamba’s petition deal. Meanwhile, Zamba’s lawyer, Frank Perez, said in a statement on Monday that Cartel Boss would not comply with American government officials, indicating that he would not be ready to disclose any information on the cartel system to the US.
According to ABC News, Perez said in a statement, “The agreement he reached with American officials is a matter of public records.” “This is not a cooperation agreement, and I can clearly explain that there is no deal under which it is cooperating with the United States government or any other government.”
Perez could not be reached for comment by Fox News Digital.
The Trump administration has shifted to tighten the cartels, and in February, groups such as Sinaloa, Train de Argu and others have been nominated as foreign terrorist organizations. Doing so prevents groups from using the US financial system, which aims to obstruct their ability to operate.
Mexico to extradite 26 top cartel leaders in the Trump Administration deal

Additionally, the Trump administration signed a deal with Mexico to send 26 high-ranked cartel figures to the US in August-some involved with Sinaloa’s relations.
Townsend predicted that more prosecution would be followed by the Department of Justice.
“I think we are going to push for widespread cooperation from Mexico, there are more signs,” said Townsend. “We have shown that we need to extradite these people in the United States for prosecution. We have a resource, criminal investigation. So I will expect to look at wide DOJ prosecutors, to renew the overall leadership of Cinaloa and other Cartel, and how can we bring more cases and more cases against those major players.”
Meanwhile, the US Army may be involved in other works done by the Trump administration. The New York Times reported in August that Trump signed an order to direct the military operations targeting Cartel on foreign land.
Mexican President Claudia Shinbam said that while Mexico would “cooperate” with the US, a “invasion” was out of question.

In the study of drug policy and Mexico at the Baker Institute for Public Policy of Rice University, a non -Vidydwan Nathan Jones said that Zamba’s guilty petition puts additional pressure on Mexico to follow American requests, although American soldiers in Mexico would be considered as a violent.
“For Mexico, you have found a very sensitive issue, and American shoes on the ground without permission are highly problematic,” Jones said on Fox News Digital Tuesday. “But there are ways that the Mexican government can do without violating its own sovereignty. Work with the United States, can be American law enforcement.”
Zamba’s sentence is scheduled for January, where they have to face the minimum period of life in jail to lead a continuous criminal venture according to the Department of Justice.
Attorney General Palm Bondi said in a statement on Monday, “The foreign terrorist committed terrible crimes against the American people – he will now pay for crimes that spend the rest of their lives behind bars in an American jail.” “Today is a significant victory in President Trump’s ongoing fight to completely eliminate foreign terrorist organizations and to save American citizens from deadly drugs and violence.”
