NEW YORK (77WABC) – In an exclusive interview, the attorney for El Chapo’s 31 year old beauty queen wife, speaks to “The Other Side of Midnight” host Frank Morano since her arrest.  Jeffrey Lichtman, the attorney for the Mexican drug boss’s wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, alleges that US authorities are trying to get her and her family killed by leaking to the press that she’s turning state’s evidence.

Lichtman says, the idea “first started on a blog, a website, I think it’s called Vice, some scummy blog.” Lichtman goes on to say that the notion Coronel Aispuro would turn state’s evidence constituted “an attempt [by U.S. authorities] to murder her and her family.” “Let’s be clear about this,” he said. “She’s got two 9-year-old girls that are exposed, obviously, and to put this out there so flippantly is designed to kill them.”  Lichtman, who has also defended other high profile clients such as John Gotti Jr. and rapper Fat Joe said the planting of the initial story in VICE about Coronel Aispuro’s apparent cooperation was the work of federal agents.

Coronel Aispuro is facing charges in the U.S. for her alleged role in helping to run the Sinaloa cartel. The New York Post  also reported that Coronel Aispuro is preparing to “rat out high-ranking members of the Sinaloa cartel, including her own stepsons.”
