Who Are «Los Chapitos»?
According to U.S. authorities, the Sinaloa Cartel remains one of the world’s most influential transnational criminal organizations.
The U.S. government alleges that the organization is responsible for trafficking fentanyl and other illegal drugs into the United States.
Authorities also accuse the organization of involvement in kidnapping, homicide, and money laundering.
Within that organization, U.S. agencies identify a faction made up of several sons of Joaquín «El Chapo» Guzmán Loera.
Although the group is widely known as «Los Chapitos,» U.S. authorities also refer to it in official documents as «Los Menores.»
The faction is identified as including:
- Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar
- Jesús Alfredo Guzmán Salazar
- Ovidio Guzmán López, also known as «El Ratón»
- Joaquín Guzmán López
Family Structure Identified by U.S. Authorities
The Guzmán family also included Édgar Guzmán López.
Édgar died on May 8, 2008.
According to publicly available information, he was killed during an armed attack.
He was 22 years old.
ICE’s latest announcement once again places Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar and Jesús Alfredo Guzmán Salazar at the center of the agency’s investigation.
According to the agency, both men remain fugitives.
The ICE reward Los Chapitos offer of up to $10 million remains unchanged.
ICE says its objective is to obtain information that will help authorities locate, arrest, and secure the conviction of the two suspects through established official channels.
