Cheers and jeers in the home state of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman following the drug lord's life sentence in the United States. On Wednesday, a federal judge in the US ruled the Mexican drug lord who twice escaped maximum-security prisons in that country will spend the rest of his life in a US penitentiary.
