Notorious Mexican drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, who escaped prison two times in the past, likely will spend the rest of his life behind bars in the U.S.

The Justice Department said Thursday that Guzman has been extradited to the U.S., Reuters reports. 

Guzman is “en route to the United States to face criminal charges in connection with his leadership of the Mexican organized crime syndicate known as the ‘Sinaloa Cartel,'” the Justice Department said in a statement.
