Mexico Wants El Mayo’s Billions Back as Sinaloa Keeps Bleeding
['The Latin American Post Staff']

Mexico wants a share of the $15 billion forfeiture ordered against Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada, arguing that cartel wealth extracted through decades of violence should return home.
Zambada said a son of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán forced him onto the aircraft and delivered him to the United States.
The United States treats a conviction as the end of the story.
Depositing cartel assets into a general treasury would be morally insufficient.
The United States has legitimate claims too.
