Mexican Politician Tweets El Chapo Prison Photo to Dispel Rumors of an Escape

By MICHAEL EDISON HAYDEN - Jul 9, 2016, 2:27 AM ET

Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman remains in the confines of a Mexican prison, according to Mexican Secretary of the Interior, Miguel Ángel Osorio Chong, who tweeted a photo of the drug lord Friday night in an effort to dispel Internet rumors that he had escaped for a third time.

"Los rumores, una images," Chong wrote in Spanish, which in English, translates to, "For the rumors, an image."

It's too bad that Marco Rubio didn't use that nickname for Trump during the campaign.
