Sounds like a guy who should be taken care of in prison.

el chapo ain't buying jurors baw and is not negotiating, his "offer" will simply be vote not guilty or your family dies, money got nothing to do with his empire, it's about power and control, think about JFK witnesses gone missing...

i feel i'd be dismissed with the simple "did you vote for the defendant in the 2016 presidential election?"

As expected - the new season of the Netflix show "Narcos" is going to be about a lot of what he was involved in, the Mexican drug trade.

Hell no, I wouldn't even want to be a potential juror. I'm sure they will get death threats as well.

Looks like Sean Penn made himself a witness.

Doesn’t he realize he can be subpoenaed testify against El Chapo?

It’s either that or purjure himself.

And we wonder why killers walk. Cannot even get a juror on the panel. How do we expect law enforcement, DAs and judges to be willing to do their work? This is why MS-13 is so strong.

Plenty of jurors put mob guys behind bars (not so sure that was a good thing given the rampant explosion of drugs and crime just about the time there was a major crackdown on the mob (1980s)).

They wouldn't just kill you. They decapitate everyone you've ever talked to in the past 10 yrs.

Who needs a trial. Just blow the frick out of all of them.
Take the children into foster care and kill the rest of the family.

I wouldn’t show up if I were picked. I don’t care if I’d be jailed for contempt. I’d also make a statement saying I didn’t show up because I know he’s innocent and the whole trial is a farce.

I’d rather drag my balls through broken glass, shove a sharp javelin up my a-hole, then chop my dick off....

.... Long before I would sit on a jury for that man’a trial.

Easier than that. I would tell the lawyer that I have been following this story for years and I am 100% certain that he is guilty. Would be asked to be dismissed immediately.

I would be the most pro chapo juror ever, every time he would walk in I would give him a thumps up, clap, stand, say hey chapo whatever it would take to save my and my families life.
