Miguel Ángel Báez "Javi" Guevara was a significant figure within the Sinaloa Cartel, primarily involved in coordinating drug trafficking operations and managing logistics for narcotics transportation. Following his arrest, Guevara chose to cooperate with U.S. authorities, becoming a key informant and providing valuable information on the cartel’s inner workings.
After cooperating with law enforcement, Guevara was placed in the U.S. witness protection program. It is believed that he relocated to Alaska, a decision likely made due to its remote and isolated nature, which offers a higher degree of safety and anonymity. This move was intended to protect him from potential retribution by the Sinaloa Cartel or other criminal groups that might target him for his cooperation with law enforcement.
In the second segment:
Osiel Cárdenas Guillén, the former leader of the Gulf Cartel, was released from U.S. federal prison on July 18, 2023, after serving 20 years of his 25-year sentence. Cárdenas was originally extradited to the United States in 2007 and later pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including drug trafficking, money laundering, and threatening U.S. federal agents. His release was attributed to good behavior and cooperation with authorities.
Cárdenas's release has raised concerns about the potential impact on the power dynamics of the Gulf Cartel and other criminal organizations in Mexico. While he has not publicly indicated a desire to return to cartel activities, his knowledge and connections could influence ongoing cartel operations. The Mexican government and U.S. law enforcement agencies are closely monitoring the situation to assess any changes in criminal activities or alliances following his release.
