Did drug boss El Chapo Guzman fake his own arrest?

By David Amoruso

It was undoubtedly the biggest crime news of 2014, the capture of Sinaloa cartel boss Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman on February 22 at his condominium in Mazatlan, Sinaloa, Mexico. But in a new documentary a New York filmmaker poses the theory that Guzman was never really caught and that he continues living in freedom as Mexico’s overlord.


He accomplished this, director Charlie Minn claims in his documentary “Es El Chapo?”, by using a look-alike who is now serving time in prison while the real Guzman is still in hiding.
“Es El Chapo?” gets a one-week Waco, Texas, screening at Premiere Cinema 6 beginning today and can soon be seen in theatres in New York, Fresno, and Chicago. You can watch the trailer above.
