Hello from day 19 of El Chapo's trial.
Expect more Jorge Cifuentes and two law enforcement witnesses this morning, then another cooperator in the afternoon.
Stay tuned for updates and listen to our podcast about the twin brothers who flipped on Chapo.

Chapo's wife Emma Coronel, who has attended every day of the trial so far, was notably absent yesterday. She sits right behind the press (an assigned seat) and he kept glancing over and looking for her all day.

Today was the first day Emma Coronel Aispuro did not come to court to support her husband, El Chapo. U.S. Marshals saved her space along her usual second row until just before the trial resumed. Emma’s attorney told me she would likely not be in NYC the week before winter recess.

When El Chapo’s wife didn't come to court yesterday (a first in the trial), the drug kingpin looked back often to her empty seat on the second row. @balarezolaw told me that El Chapo was unaware of Emma’s planned absence. Her attorney said she likely won't attend all week.
El Chapo’s wife no-shows at trial, leaves courtroom puzzled
December 17, 2018
"El Chapo’s Brooklyn federal-court trial threatened to turn into an episode of the “Real Housewives of the Sinaloa Cartel” on Monday when the wife of the accused Mexican drug lord went AWOL, puzzling even her pint-sized defendant hubby.
Chapo’s wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, had attended every single day of her husband’s trial for the past six weeks.
Her absence in the courtroom Monday seemed to come as a surprise even to her alleged-kingpin husband, who spent much of the proceeding nervously searching the room for his former-beauty-queen wife.
A source familiar with the wife’s habits said they had no idea exactly where she was but confirmed she was still in New York...."

El Chapo's wife is suddenly a NO-SHOW in court: Concerned drug baron is seen looking around for his absent beauty queen lover who has attended without fail for six weeks (with clip)
"Emma Coronel, 29, the wife of Sinaloa drug cartel leader Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman, did not attend court on Monday for the first time in six weeks of his trial
She said in a Telemundo interview last week that he needs to 'feel my support' while he's in the courtroom
Coronel has said she often leaves court with a headache after long days of bad eating and sitting on uncomfortable benches...."

Emma Coronel has become a fixture at the courthouse, but I disagree with this assessment that "she’ll acknowledge a smile or nod, but no more." I've found her to be shy but friendly, and she chats off-the-record in Spanish with reporters in the courtroom.
Is Emma Coronel the devoted wife of El Chapo, or is she being used as a prop?

Clearly, Emma Coronel's presence is intended to send a message to the jury, but it takes dedication to come to court every single day. It's grueling. She's away from home and her daughters. She explains herself in the first minute of this interview.

Emma Coronel gets a lot of attention for her Instagram page, but she claims she's not running the account. Unclear whether photos like this one are authentic. But regardless of whether it's her or not, you have to wonder who is posting these images and why.

Anyway, enough about the sideshow. Heading up to the main event now. Stay tuned for updates from today's testimony.
