Alleged kingpin battles language handicap in U.S. – Cardenas’ legal team must have a mountain of paper, tapes translated
Tagged: detention, detention center, MexicoPosted on: September 9th, 2007“The latest fight for accused Mexican drug boss Osiel Cardenas isn’t in a courtroom, but a jail.
Behind the closed doors of a detention center, the location of which is being kept secret for security reasons, he and his lawyers are digging through tens of thousands of pages of documents and hundreds of hours of recordings made by federal agents.
The material was collected as the U.S. government worked for years to snare Cardenas in a web that led to his extradition from Mexico to Houston.”
