The wife of Chicago drug kingpin Pedro Flores, who with his twin brother helped bring down Sinaloa cartel boss Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman Loera, was sentenced Monday to 3 ½ years in prison for hiding hundreds of thousands of dollars from the feds.
Vivianna Lopez made an emotional plea for mercy, telling the judge she feared for the lives of her children after Pedro Flores and his brother, Margarito, famously turned against the Sinaloa cartel and helped bring down Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman Loera.
