Emma Coronel | Before They Were Famous | Wife of ElChapo & Why She Was Arrested

Emma attempted to promote herself as a small-town girl, the simple
daughter of a bean farmer turned devoted wife and mother but court
documents and her family tree tell a different story. She was born
into a world of crime and her arranged marriage to famous Mexican
criminal at the age of 18 is part of a Mafia tradition. Having been
married since 2007 her husband has been on the run or in and out of
prison for the better part of the last decade. Despite this, she
has remained loyal to the powerful man which takes a certain type
of woman - seeing that he was convicted for a catalog of crimes.
Now the law has caught up with her and besides her own list of
charges, it is believed she is also being linked to his
now-infamous escape that went down in 2016. Find out more about
this woman and her ties to the Sinaloa group, her beauty pageant
past, and more in this episode of BTWF.
