'El Chapo' Guzman Due In Court

MEXICO-CRIME-GUZMAN

Suspected Mexican drug lord Joaquin  "El Chapo" Guzman is due to face a judge in federal court in Brooklyn tomorrow.  Most recently, U.S. District Judge Brian Cogan delayed the start of Guzman's trial by two months, with it now set to begin in  November.  The 60-year-old Guzman escaped jail twice in Mexico, and has  been held under high-security in Manhattan since being extradited to the U.S. at the start of last year.  He's charged with using violence and  intimidation to run a drug cartel, all while importing upwards of  20-tons of cocaine into the U.S. from Mexico.
