1. Court sketch of judge giving jurors instructions
STORYLINE:
A federal judge in Brooklyn was giving instructions to jurors before they will be asked to begin deciding the verdict for infamous Mexican drug lord Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, who faces life in prison if convicted.
The jury has heard months of testimony about Guzman’s rise to power as the head of the Sinaloa cartel. Prosecutors say he’s responsible for smuggling at least 200 tons of cocaine into the United States and a wave of killings in turf wars with other cartels.
Guzman, 61, is notorious for escaping prison twice in Mexico. In closing arguments, prosecutor Andrea Goldbarg said he was plotting yet another breakout when was he was sent in 2017 to the U.S., where he’s been in solitary confinement ever since.
