The Flores brothers, twins Margarito and Pedro Flores, played a significant role in the downfall of notorious Mexican drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán. Here's a detailed summary of their involvement:
Margarito and Pedro Flores were born in Chicago and grew up in the Little Village neighborhood, which is known for its significant Mexican-American population. They became involved in drug trafficking at a young age, working as street-level dealers before ascending to higher levels of the drug trade.
The Flores brothers became key players in the Sinaloa Cartel, one of Mexico's most powerful and notorious drug trafficking organizations, led by El Chapo. They were responsible for distributing massive quantities of cocaine in Chicago and other parts of the United States.
In 2008, facing the prospect of lengthy prison sentences, the Flores brothers decided to cooperate with U.S. law enforcement authorities. They began providing crucial information about the operations of the Sinaloa Cartel, including details about its leadership structure, drug trafficking routes, and money laundering activities.
As part of their cooperation, the Flores brothers engaged in undercover operations, recording conversations with El Chapo and other high-ranking members of the cartel. These recordings provided valuable evidence for prosecutors and law enforcement agencies, helping to build cases against numerous cartel members.
The information provided by the Flores brothers played a significant role in the eventual arrest of El Chapo. In 2016, after years of evading capture, El Chapo was apprehended by Mexican authorities following a dramatic raid on his hideout in Los Mochis, Sinaloa. The capture was a major victory for law enforcement agencies in both Mexico and the United States.
The cooperation of the Flores brothers dealt a significant blow to the operations of the Sinaloa Cartel and helped dismantle its infrastructure. Their testimony and evidence were instrumental in convicting numerous cartel members, including El Chapo himself, who was sentenced to life in prison in the United States.
In this episode, we take a look at how the government rewarded them by shaving time off their sentence.
