you re always gonna have that in the back of your mind but it s what you do with that fear. what he did was obsess over el chapo s whereabouts. it was nonstop, nonstop. i would dream about it. it totally consumed my life. drew hogan s international odyssey on the hunt for el chapo started far from mexico s narco killing fields. a small town in the midwest where he played high school football and dreamt of going into law enforcement. your first shot at carrying a badge was as a local sheriff deputy. correct. that was all i wanted to do from an early age, ever since eighth grade. i came from a family of firefighters and was the only black sheep. went into law enforcement, loved working the street. and one day i was with a buddy of mine, a former police officer and he said, hey, why don t you just go into chicago and test for the dea? the dea, the united states drug enforcement administration.
hotel. got out. the marines began filtering inside. and i was standing out front in camouflage, wearing a black ski mask. at this time i had had chapo s black ball cap on my head. they determined el chapo was likely holed up on the fourth floor. knowing he and his bodyguards were most certainly armed, the team was worried the operation would turn into a fire-fight, catching civilians in and around the apartment building in the deadly crossfire. i was worried about our perimeter. we didn t have enough manpower. so i wanted to stay outside. drew watched as lights flicked on in the building the mexican marines had begun to make their entry. and that s when i heard the excited radio chatter, when i ran up to the guy that had the radio. and i said, what did they say? he said, they ve got the target. they have got him. him. el chapo. drew had spent four years hunting el chapo.
[ speaking foreign language ] hard to believe, but here is the world s most dangerous drug lord complaining about his teeth. and with el chapo finally in custody, there was one person and with el chapo finally in custody, there was one person drew wanted to talk to. his wife. i hadn t talked to her in in days. and i grabbed my phone and a sent a quick text. and i said i got him. and she writes back, no way. and i said, yeah, i m coming home. the job was over. that was it. tonight the world s top drug lord is in custody after decades on the run. the news of el chapo s capture reverberated around the world. to grab chapo guzman after years of a manhunt. he s like the harry houdini out there, just evading law
we were getting ourselves into. she asked me what s your gut telling you, and i said to go. when inside the hunt for el chapo continues. for el chapo continues this is the sound of an asthma attack. that doesn t happen. this is the sound of better breathing. fasenra is a different kind of asthma medication. it s not a steroid or inhaler. fasenra is an add-on treatment for asthma driven by eosinophils. it s one maintenance dose every 8 weeks. it helps prevent asthma attacks, improve breathing, and lower use of oral steroids. nearly 7 out of 10 adults with asthma may have elevated eosinophils. fasenra is designed to target and remove them. fasenra is not a rescue medication or for other eosinophilic conditions. fasenra may cause allergic reactions. get help right away if you have swelling of your face, mouth, and tongue, or trouble breathing. don t stop your asthma treatments unless your doctor tells you to. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection or your asthma worsens.
february of 2014 was the first time that the mexican marines had ever done an operation on the ground in this area because of the danger and the compromises and the risks involved. laser-focused on their mission, drew and brady and the team had narrowed down el chapo s location to a one-block radius. but they needed to find the right house, and a specific door to get at him. so, we sent our teams down there to do that. and they spent 24 hours in that city, alone trying to pinpoint that door. drew and the rest of the team waited at a nearby military base for the call to come in that el chapo s location had been pinpointed. in the meantime, culiacan was abuzz. fear hung in the air. rumors and text messages were flying among the people who lived there. the city is lighting up.
