Notorious Drug Lord Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman Convicted In Trafficking Trial

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) – Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman was found guilty on all 10 counts in his drug trafficking trial.

Guzman was convicted Tuesday of running an industrial-scale smuggling operation after a three-month trial packed with Hollywood-style tales of grisly killings, political payoffs, cocaine hidden in jalapeno cans, jewel-encrusted guns and a naked escape with his mistress through a tunnel.
