After his dramatic escape from a maximum security prison last july, guzman was on the run. But in early october, took a secret meeting in mexico with oscarwinning assor sean penn, brokered by soap opera star del castillo.

Penn would arrange and write a article for Rolling Stone describing it as a secret, burner phones and encrypted messages. On that october day as they were meeting with el chapo, Law Enforcement sources say Mexican Marines were preparing to move in.
