A few tidbits in a new order issued by the judge in the El Chapo trial: It seems Magarito Flores, one of the Chicago twins who sold tons of coke for Chapo in Chicago & elsewhere, is going to testify. His brother, Pedro, appeared as a witness last month:
The Meeting in the Mountains That Led to $800 Million in Cash for El Chapo

Judge Cogan also denied a 2nd request by the defense to cross examine another witness, Vicente Zambada Niebla, on his claims he had a deal w/DEA to traffic drugs in exchange for intel on rival cartels. The judge said it would "create a sideshow" if the deal was brought up.

Lastly, Judge Cogan ruled the defense can't bring up Operation Fast & Furious, the botched ATF weapons investigation that led to guns reaching cartel hands. The govt is poised to introduce evidence about Fast & Furious weapons, but the defense won't be able to mention the probe.
