El Chapo begs Mexico President AMLO to pull him out of 'cruel' US prison

[NYPOST] Convicted drug kingpin Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman is whining about the "cruel and unfair" conditions at his high-security US prison — and is begging authorities in Mexico to move him to friendlier confines in his native land.

The notorious narco-trafficker, who was extradited to the US in 2017 and is locked up at a super-max federal prison in Colorado, is pleading with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador to pull some strings and get him back home, Mexico News Daily reported.

Guzman’s lawyer said things are so bad that when his client had a toothache, prison staffers just yanked his teeth.

"He doesn’t see the sun, the food is of very bad quality, there is no health care," attorney Jose Refugio Rodriguez told news hounds.

"He had a problem with his molars and instead of treating them, they took them out so he wouldn’t fuss," Rodriguez said, according to the outlet. "He is hurting in a trial that was not in accordance with due process."

#4 He wants to be placed in prison with less security. So his compatriots can break him out more easily.

Watch Mel Gibson's Get the Gringo. Mexican prison is a lot like house arrest, if you've got the cash to spread around. A US prison, even Club Fed, is nothing like house arrest. And Super Max is like being marooned on a desert island with prison bars instead of sunshine, and that island is the size of a walk-in closet.
