Joaquín “El Chapo” Drug Defense Lawyer Judge in Mexico’s first judicial elections.
Silvia Delgado showed Silvia Delgado, who won a sufficient vote in Ciudad Juárez, on the US-Mexican border.
Its candidacy was one of the most controversial elections on June 1.
A transparency organization reportedly denounced Delgado with an organized crime, denouncing the complaint, but argued that he was doing his work by defending El Chapo.
The 51-year-old lawyer was a member of the El Chapanese defense team that was extradited to the United States from Mexico to the United States in 2017.
Sinaloa Poster leader in 2019 is found guilty of drug traffic and is serving the life penalty in Colorado’s prison.
In an interview with BBC in front of the election, Delgado argued that El Chapo had a legal adviser and discourage the suggestions of the conflict, if he had to be chosen as a judge.
After posting voting on Tuesday, Delgado said he would comment, until officially confirmed.
Judicial elections were the first to be done in Mexico after a radical reform brought by Morena Festivities.
His sponsors said Judge by choosing – the Supreme Court included justices – a direct judicial vote would become more democratic and look at the voters.
But his critics argue that they weakened the independence of the judiciary.
The turn was small on 13% – the lowest in any federal vote made in Mexico. Many of the instructors said Mexicans said it was little excitement to choose the judges directly.
However, President Claudia Shinbaum said the election was a huge success.
