Cartel Wife Emma Coronel Aispuro Steps Out to Party Since Being Released from Prison

ABC7 Chicago — In the new interview with Elle.com titled “Life as El Chapo’s Wife: The real story of Emma Coronel Aispuro,” she details her background of how she came to be El Chapo’s wife and how she came to assist in his previous prison escapes.

She also shared what she’s looking forward to in her future.

“I hope for many good and beautiful things in my life,” she told Elle.

Aispuro said she was feeling excited to be with her daughters again, and is enjoying “quality moments.” She said she was focused on her future career plans, which she says are still evolving.

“I still can’t say the plans, because then later they won’t come to be,” she added with a laugh. “But many and beautiful.”

Aispuro has previously expressed “true regret for any and all harm” when she was sentenced after pleading guilty to charges including money laundering conspiracy and engaging in transactions with a foreign narcotics trafficker.

The Mexican cartel is being blamed for storming a water park, in Cortazar, Guanajuato state, Mexico.

A video posted on social media shows several people in swimsuits running about crying, screaming and hugging their children.

The video taken soon after the attack showed shocked adults and children walking past piles of dead bodies near a swimming pool.

It was not clear exactly who was behind the shooting that killed the seven-year-old, three men and three women, Cortazar’s local security department said. One person was seriously injured in the La Palma resort.

“Heavily armed sicarios arrived and this is what happened,” said an unidentified man, using a word for hired assassins as he filmed at the resort in the video shared on the internet.

Mexican soldiers and police aided by a helicopter were searching for the attackers.

According to Reuters, Guanajuato, an agricultural and industrial hub, has been Mexico’s most violent state for years. The Jalisco New Generation drug cartel has been fighting with local criminal groups, including the Santa Rosa de Lima cartel, which is apparently backed by the Sinaloa cartel.

WATCH: Authorities Find Alleged Drug Cartel Money Stash Worth Millions

Alleged drug cartel money

Ok guys so how much CASH IS TOO MUCH CASH?

I snatched this video from Twitter and I am in complete aw and disbelief and love. I’m having extreme mixed emotions. I don’t know wether to freak out or be in lust… imagine having access to this kind of mulah.

Everyone knows I love money but this might be too much cash. I wouldn’t be able to trust a soul with this kind of money not even to guard it. How the hell would you know if any was missing?

Twitter claims this is drug money. I cannot confirm those claims but it’s not a far stretch seeing as cartels are known to make billions. Guesstimates are as high as $500 billion/year. Who knows the actual total but I can’t imagine the souls and tragedies tied to this money. All drug money is dirty, the drug game is the dirtiest.

If you had to guess how much do you think is in the stash? Who do you think it belongs to?

I’ll shoot my shot and say El Chapo?
