He was later recaptured in 2014, then re-escaped the following year through a 24 kilometre underground tunnel.In 2016, he was caught for a third time and extradited to the US to face charges relating to his leadership of the cartel.The Sinaloa group also formed in the late ’80s and is believed to be the primary supplier of heroin, cocaine, meth, MDMA and fentanyl into the US.It was the Sinaloa group which pioneered the use of tunnels dug underneath the Mexico-US border to send their drugs into America.This article originally appeared on and was reproduced with permission.
