In a testimony before the court, Alex Vanegas, the agent who arrested the alleged drug dealer's daughter, said the woman was identified with an electronic system used after she attempted to enter the United States through San Diego, California, reported DNA website Politico. 

For identification system was used "Ident" comparing the iris and fingerprint data from the Department of State when providing visas, national bank antidelictivo FBI and HSD.
This statement was filed Monday as evidence in federal court in San Diego, when Guzman was presented. There were no reports of this hearing to the press.
the official surmised that she probably thought that the authorities would be reluctant to hold someone with special medical needs. A fingerprint examination indicated that she was in a database of the U.S. government on immigration violators, but gave no details. 

However, Alejandrina Giselle Guzman Salazar has no criminal record in the country or charged with any crime, except a violation of immigration laws by attempting to enter the United States with false documents.

Alejandrina Giselle was arrested last Friday 12 October at the checkpoint in San Ysidro, south of San Diego and the border city of Tijuana.
An immigration judge set for October 25 as the date to review her case. The woman, seven months pregnant, will be deported as soon as possible to avoid having a child in the American union, the arrested confessed the plan. She is being retained in immigration until that date arrives and the judge will review her legal status.
SAN DIEGO –  The arrested daughter of one of the world's most sought-after drug lords, Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, is not offering authorities any clues and has been "a dead end" in the search for her elusive father.

Alejandrina Gisselle Guzmán Salazar, 31, was charged Monday with fraud and misuse of visas, three days after authorities arrested her at San Diego's San Ysidro port of entry, the nation's busiest border crossing.

The official said Guzmán Salazar has been "a dead end" in the search for the leader of Mexico's Sinaloa cartel. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an investigation that has not been made public.

Border inspectors interviewed Guzmán Salazar for about a half-hour, during which time she volunteered that Guzmán was her father and that she was six months pregnant, the official said. She didn't say why she offered the information but the official speculated that she may have bet been betting authorities would be reluctant to bear the additional costs of holding someone with special medical needs.

The U.S. Treasury Department described Hernández Salazar as Joaquín Guzmán's wife when it imposed financial sanctions on her in June.

The Complaint against Guzmán Salazar

The complaint said Guzmán Salazar attempted to enter the country on foot Friday, impersonating someone with a non-immigrant visa contained in a Mexican passport. It said a fingerprint scan indicated she is in a U.S. government database of previous immigration violators but was not more specific.

Guzmán Salazar told authorities intended to go to Los Angeles to give birth to her child, according to the complaint.

A typical sentence for such a violation is two to six months in custody, Guadalupe Valencia, one of her attorneys, said Tuesday. He said his client is a medical doctor from Guadalajara and is seven months pregnant.

Guzmán Salazar hired Valencia and Jan Ronis, attorneys with histories of representing clients accused of links to organized crime. A bail hearing is scheduled Oct. 25.

The Sinaloa cartel, named after the Pacific coast state of the same name, controls trafficking along much of the U.S. border with Mexico, particularly in Western states.

Authorities in the U.S. and Mexico have said they believe Guzmán has children with several partners, though it's not clear how many. The U.S. Treasury Department has put sanctions on sons Ivan Archivaldo "El Chapito" Guzmán Salazar, 31, and Ovidio Guzmán Lopez, 22.

Jesus Alfredo Guzmán Salazar, 26, was indicted with his father on multiple drug trafficking charges in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in August 2009.

Last month, the U.S. Treasury Department said it was placing financial sanctions on Guzmán's wife, Griselda López Pérez. The department said at the time that she "plays a key role" in the Sinaloa cartel.

Guzman Family Tree

López Pérez was the second wife of Guzmán designated under the U.S. Kingpin Act, which bars U.S. citizens from making business transactions with that person and allows authorities to freeze their assets in the United States.

The Los Angeles Times reported last year that Guzmán's wife — former beauty queen Emma Coronel — traveled to Southern California and gave birth to twin girls at Antelope Valley Hospital in Lancaster, north of Los Angeles. The newspaper said Coronel, then 22, holds U.S. citizenship, which entitles her to travel freely to the U.S. and to use its hospitals.

Yesterday's take


SAN DIEGO.- The daughter of Guzmán, Alejandrina Giselle Guzmán Salazar, was presented this Tuesday amidst a highly secure operation before the Federal Court in San Diego, U.S.  

During the presentation, the customs agent that stopped her, Alex Vanegas, gave his testimony to the court. He said that an electronic identification system was the one that revealed the true identity of the daughter of the leader of the Cartel of Sinaloa, fugitive since 2001.  

Vanegas detailed that Guzmán Salazar presented a Mexican passport with a visitor's permit that he immediately noted was false, which he subsequently escorted her to a more detailed inspection.  

The woman was submitted to an electronic identification system that compares the iris of the eyes and the fingerprints with a national database of the Department of Homeland Security (HSD).  

The system "linked the defendant with antecedents in the immigration service", revealed the agent in his testimony.  

Moments later she confessed to customs inspectors that she was the daughter of el Chaparro, that had altered the name in the Mexican passport, and that had obtained a fake visa to travel to L.A.  

She indicated that once in the city she planned to give birth and meet with the father of their son. The identity of the person with whom Guzmán Salazar planned to hook up with in L.A. has not been revealed.  

Vanegas' testimony was presented in the court by another agent representative, Elizabeth Rangel, of CBP.  

The system 'Ident' utilized in the identification automatically compares the iris of the eyes and fingerprints with State Department data upon providing visas as well as that of the FBI's database and the Homeland Security Department.  

The only charges against the daughter of the Sinaloa cartel ringleader are that she tried to enter the United States with a fake visa.  

Guzmán Salazar will have its next court hearing in two weeks October 25, according to San Diego federal court schedule.

Alejandrina Gisselle Guzmán Salazar, 31, was arrested Friday at San Diego's San Ysidro port of entry.

Guzmán Salazar appeared Monday morning at the downtown federal courthouse in a hearing held under heightened security. The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday that Guzmán Salazar's attorneys are Jan Ronis and Guadalupe Valencia, both known for representing high-profile drug trafficking figures. According to the report, the lawyers said that Guzmán Salazar is a medical doctor from Guadalajara who is seven months pregnant.
The significance of the arrest will depend on what Guzmán Salazar can tell authorities about her father, such as whether she can provide phone numbers, said David Shirk, director of the University of San Diego's Trans-Border Institute.

"We don't know exactly what she knows," said Shirk. "It may just be an interesting factoid in the war on drugs or it could be a vital clue for law enforcement."
Shirk noted that Benjamin Arellano Felix, who led what was then Mexico's most powerful drug cartel, was captured in Mexico in 2002 after authorities tracked his daughter to find him.
Guzmán Salazar was charged with fraud and misuse of visas, permits and other documents. The complaint said she attempted to enter the country on foot, presenting a non-immigrant visa contained in a Mexican passport. She told authorities she was pregnant and intended to go to Los Angeles to give birth to her child.

The Los Angeles Times reported last year that Guzmán's wife - former beauty queen Emma Coronel - traveled to Southern California and gave birth to twin girls at Antelope Valley Hospital in Lancaster, north of Los Angeles. The newspaper said Coronel, then 22, holds U.S. citizenship, which entitles her to travel freely to the U.S. and to use its hospitals.
"You kind of surmise that there's some family connection back to Southern California," Eric Olson, associate director of the Wilson Center's Mexico Institute said of the daughter's arrest.

The Sinaloa cartel, named after the Pacific coast state of the same name, controls trafficking along much of the U.S. border with Mexico, particularly in Western states.
Authorities in the U.S. and Mexico have said they believe Guzmán has children with several partners, though it's not clear how many. The U.S. Treasury Department has put sanctions on sons Iván Archivaldo "El Chapito" Guzmán Salazar, 31, and Ovidio Guzmán López, 22.

Lopez Perez was the second wife of Guzmán designated under the U.S. Kingpin Act, which bars U.S. citizens from making business transactions with that person and allows authorities to freeze their assets in the United States.

In June, the department imposed sanctions on Maria Alejandrina Hernández Salazar, who it also described as a wife of Guzmán.

The arrest and investigation of Guzmán Salazar was handled by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which oversees the nation's largest border crossing in San Diego.
