Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada is a prominent figure within the world of Mexican drug trafficking, particularly associated with the Sinaloa Cartel, one of the most powerful drug trafficking organizations in the world. Here's a comprehensive summary of his background and significance:Background:
  1. Early Life: Ismael Zambada García was born on January 1, 1948, in El Álamo, Sinaloa, Mexico. He grew up in a rural area and became involved in the drug trade at a young age.
  2. Rise in the Drug Trade: Zambada began his career in the drug trade working under Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo, one of the founding members of the Guadalajara Cartel. After Gallardo's arrest, Zambada aligned himself with Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, forming a powerful partnership that would dominate the Mexican drug trade for decades.
  3. Sinaloa Cartel Leadership: Zambada is often referred to as the "head" or "co-leader" of the Sinaloa Cartel alongside El Chapo. While Guzmán garnered much of the attention and notoriety, Zambada operated more discreetly, preferring to work behind the scenes.
  4. Modus Operandi: Zambada is known for his strategic and business-oriented approach to drug trafficking. He has been involved in all aspects of the trade, including production, transportation, and distribution, and is reputed for his ability to maintain alliances and resolve conflicts within the cartel.
Quotes:
  1. On His Legacy: Zambada once stated, "I’m a humble rancher. I don’t consider myself a narco. I’m a businessman dedicated to agriculture. Drug trafficking is a business and we are businessmen. Nothing more, nothing less."
  2. On El Chapo: In an interview with journalist Julio Scherer García, Zambada described his relationship with El Chapo as one of mutual respect and cooperation: "Chapo and I had an agreement. He was in charge of the mountains, and I took care of the coasts."
  3. On His Approach to Business: Zambada has emphasized the importance of maintaining a low profile and avoiding unnecessary violence. He once remarked, "The best thing is to negotiate, not to kill."
Significance:
  1. Continued Influence: Despite the arrest and subsequent extradition of El Chapo to the United States, Zambada remains a key figure within the Sinaloa Cartel and the broader landscape of Mexican drug trafficking. His leadership ensures the cartel's continued operations and adaptability.
  2. Control of Territories: Zambada's influence extends beyond the drug trade, as he also exerts control over vast territories in Sinaloa and other parts of Mexico, often through a combination of coercion, bribery, and alliances with local authorities.
  3. International Reach: Under Zambada's leadership, the Sinaloa Cartel has expanded its reach globally, smuggling drugs into the United States, Europe, and other regions. This international presence has made Zambada and the cartel significant players in the global drug trade.

In this episode we take a look at the indictment of the real leader of the Sinaloa cartel, Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada.
