A handwritten letter filed in federal court in Brooklyn shows that Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán is once again attempting to challenge the outcome of his case, this time asking to be returned to Mexico.
The document, dated April 23, 2026, and stamped as filed on May 1 by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, outlines Guzmán's request for what he describes as "equal treatment of the law" and an "extradition release back to Mexico."
