17 members of a cartel kingpin's family were escorted into California from Mexico. Why?
Briefly

Recent reports indicate that U.S. authorities facilitated the transfer of 17 relatives of drug kingpin Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán from Mexico to San Diego. Mexico's security chief confirmed this operation, describing it as part of negotiations involving Ovidio Guzmán, El Chapo's son, who is facing drug-related charges. Ovidio's complicated history includes a violent arrest and recent extradition to the U.S. He is reportedly negotiating a plea deal as he prepares for a July court hearing.
"As we saw in the news, Ovidio begins a negotiation with the Department of Justice of the United States and it's part of a broader strategy."
