Can El Chapo face a murder rap?

Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman has been convicted of 10 drug-related felonies. The man is heading for a life in prison.

I have this thought I want to share.

The miserable drug lord is one of the world’s most notorious criminals, responsible for untold misery and mayhem. He’ll likely never breath freely ever again.

But I’m wondering: Do U.S. federal statutes allow for a trial and potential conviction on murder charges if it can be proven that anyone who consumed drugs provided by El Chapo’s network died from that consumption? Can there be a case made that El Chapo’s drug-running activity contributed directly to anyone’s death and for that can he stand trial on murder charges?

Just wondering out loud, man.

Well, goodbye El Chapo. Here’s to a life in hell on Earth and to an eternity in the actual hell.
