People do not look at them as a hero or a person that done something great. They are shunned by their unlawful actions. They are looked at in a different light than others. Both of them are considered criminals for going against the law. It seems as though that El Chapo’s “sin” is worse than Hester’s. But back in Hester's time, her sin is just as great as something like El Chapo’s. Hester was looked upon as one of the worst because she was the first in her town to do such a thing as she did. She went to jail for a period time, was publicly humiliated on the scaffold, and had to wear the letter “A” upon her bosom. She was an example to the people. Her sin was commonly used in sermons in the church. Hester became popular for the sin she committed. Similarly, El Chapo did jail time. He is used as an example to others that they cannot hide forever. He gained much popularity from this, but not in a good manner. Even though he is not physically branded, he still wears the letter of shame, criminal and drug lord upon his

Thesis Statement: How Joaquín Guzmán Loera became a mythical figure in Mexico, both a narco folk hero and a villain
Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera (El Chapo) was born on December 25, 1954 in the community of Badiraguato, Sinaloa, Mexico. His parents were Emilio Guzman Bustilos and Maria Consuelo Loera Perez. He grew up on his father’s cattle ranch with his two younger sisters, Amida and Bernarda, and four younger brothers, Miguel Angel, Aureliano, Arturo and Emilio. It is also known that his father was an opium farmer. Throughout Guzman’s childhood he was often beaten by his father for standing up to him. Usually protecting his younger siblings therefore he ended up taking his father’s wrath. Guzman dropped out of the third grade to work for his father, this was due to the fact that the nearest school was 60 miles away and the family could not afford to commute. With little education and few opportunities for employment in his hometown, he became to help cultivate opium for his father. His brothers also joined the family business when they came of age. They would harvest the plant by the kilos and his father would sell it to other suppliers. Guzman became tired of his father’s mismanagement, so he started growing and cultivating his own marijuana plantation with a few distant cousins. He then became financially able to support his family, while his father could not. This ended up leading to his father kicking him out due to jealousy. He then went to live with his grandfather, this is where he earned his nickname El Chapo, which means shorty. This due to the fact that he was 5’6” and

Staring From humbling beginnings , El Chapo was born in the town of La Tuna, Sinaloa, Mexico. A small farm town on the norther pacific coast of Mexico known for its poppy Cultivation. According to J.D.

Pablo Escobar was not a man to mess around with. As a kid he was just a petty car thief with big dreams, but rose to be one of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful men. He could remove anyone standing in his path in the blink of an eye. “If a politician, judge or policeman got in his way … he would order them killed” (Christopher Minster). He entered the Cocaine trade in the early 1970’s, and later became one of the most notorious, ruthless and feared drug dealers. Although some people believe that Pablo Escobar rose to success from his extreme wealth, evidence proves that his rise to power was a result from mass murders, community contributions, and his ability to evade the law.
In the article Penn states, “He's wearing a casual patterned silk shirt, pressed black jeans, and he appears remarkably well-groomed and healthy for a man on the run.” This quote by Sean Penn implies that Penn was a bit surprised by the appearance of Guzman for a guy on the run. Penn thought that for a guy on the run he would look normal but in contrast he looked healthy and well groomed. Penn also states, “I realize that our driver had been the 29-yearold son of El Chapo, Alfredo Guzman. He boards beside me, designated among our personal escorts to see his father. He's handsome, lean and smartly dressed, with a wristwatch that might be of more value than the money housed by the central banks of most nation-states. He's got one hell of a wristwatch.” What Penn implies is that Guzman’s son is dressed very well, and has a very expensive watch. Penn says that his watch might be worth more than most banks in other nation states. Penn is trying to portray their wealth by what they wear. Guzman’s net worth is around 1 billion U.S. dollars. This ties back to labeling because Penn is describing the Guzman’s as people that are superior to

El Chapo was considered the most powerful drug lord until his second arrest in Mexico in February 2014.

The tunnel was 50-by-50-centimeters under the shower area. It stretched about a mile long and was equipped with a motorcycle on tracks.

I agree with the claim that criminals need to be brought to justice no matter how powerful they are, or how powerful they perceive themselves to be. Some might object to the methods used by police forces to capture these criminals. Arguing that their methods do not produce results fast enough. Yet I would argue that Police forces around the world in charge of bringing these criminals to justice do what is necessary to make the world safer. Even though their methods take time, the do infact produce results. Overall I believe that the justice system, even though it has its flaws, is still doing what is necessary to bring the worst criminals to justice, Especially those as villainous as El Chapo.
