I don’t doubt that - still:
1st escape - 78 people bought off - $2.5 million spent
2nd escape:
It was discovered he had escaped through a tunnel leading from the shower area to a house construction site 1.5 km (0.93 mi) away in a Santa Juanita neighborhood.[195][196] The tunnel lay 10 m (33 ft) deep underground, and Guzmán used a ladder to climb to the bottom. The tunnel was 1.7 m (5 ft 7 in) tall and 75 cm (30 in) in width. It was equipped with artificial light, air ducts, and high-quality construction materials.[192] In addition, a motorcycle was found in the tunnel, which authorities think was used to transport materials and possibly Guzmán himself.[197][198] Although guards discovered that Guzmán had escaped at 21:22 hours, a “red alert”, which locks down the prison and alerts a nearby military garrison, was only activated at midnight.[199]
He has skills.
