Diana Espinoza Aguilar, the wife of Guadalajara Cartel founder Rafael Caro Quintero, said there was no legal dispute between them due to a request for alimony as recently reported. 

According to Milenio, Espinoza Aguilar denied having a legal dispute with her husband over an alleged alimony claim. Caro Quintero's wife said she only sought to replace the consent of her husband to obtain the issuance of a passport for her minor child.

Espinoza Aguilar noted that she sought to obtain it through an "act of voluntary jurisdiction," Politico MX reported. The Guadalajara Cartel founder reportedly needs to sign the necessary documents to process her son's passport. 

According to reports, the hearing of the case will take place in a family court in the state of Jalisco on August 25. However, Caro Quintero will not have to appear in court.

A federal judge recently granted an injunction to Caro Quintero that prevented his extradition to the United States at the moment. 

That means the Guadalajara Cartel founder cannot be handed over to U.S. authorities without a trial being held first. It is still unknown how long the trial will take, but any delays will likely disappoint U.S. officials.

Guadalajara Cartel Founder Rafael Caro Quintero Meets Wife Diana Espinoza Aguilar

Rafael Caro Quintero had several relationships during his life. His most controversial relationship was with Sara Cosio, a daughter of a former Secretary of Education in Jalisco, who was with him when he was arrested in 1985 in Costa Rica.

But the Guadalajara Cartel founder's most recent romance was with Diana Espinoza Aguilar, and it blossomed inside a prison. Like Caro Quintero, Espinoza Aguilar was also imprisoned in the Puente Grande prison in Jalisco, La Opinion reported.

The Mexican drug kingpin reportedly first saw Espinoza Aguilar on television in 2010 when she was crowned beauty queen of the Jalisco women's prison.

Espinoza Aguilar was serving a sentence for drug trafficking at the time due to her romantic relationship with Colombian drug kingpin Ever Villafane Martinez.

She was known as "La Diva" inside the prison for her curvy body, white skin, full lips, large round brown eyes, and refined manners.

Caro Quintero's wife earlier told Mexican journalist Anabel Hernandez that a common friend introduced them to each other, and from there, their romance was born.

After completing her sentence in 2011, Espinoza Aguilar continued to be in contact with Caro Quintero, and when the Mexican drug kingpin was released due to a flaw in his criminal proceedings in 2013, they finally began to live together.

Guadalajara Cartel Founder Rafael Caro Quintero Forms Caborca Cartel

Rafael Caro Quintero is one of the founders of Guadalajara Cartel, along with Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo, and Ernesto Fonseca Carrillo. Caro Quintero was considered a pioneer in Mexico's drug underworld during the 1980s.

The Guadalajara Cartel founder had spent 28 years in prison for the brutal murder and torture of former U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent Enrique "Kiki" Camarena Salazar.

Caro Quintero was allegedly angry about a raid at Rancho Buffalo, a huge marijuana plantation in the Mexico's state of Chihuahua, at Camarena's demand. Mexican authorities seized the plantation.

Camarena was kidnapped in Guadalajara in February 1985. A month later, his lifeless body was discovered, with signs showing that he was tortured.

Caro Quintero, who was arrested in Costa Rica in the same year, has denied involvement in the killing of Camarena. In 2013, he was released by a Mexican judge on a technicality.

After his release, New York Post reported that the Mexican drug kingpin started the Caborca Cartel, named after a city in Sonora. The Caborca Cartel, which was reportedly locked in a battle against the Sinaloa Cartel, has recently specialized in selling fentanyl and cocaine.

Now that Caro Quintero is once again behind bars, it is unclear who is now handling the cartel's operations. Rafael Caro Quintero was arrested again in Sinaloa state last week. The U.S. government hailed the arrest and said it would waste no time requesting his extradition.

The Guadalajara Cartel is one of Latin America's most powerful drug trafficking organizations during the 1980s. The group started to split apart in the late 1980s, partly due to the murder of Camarena. The Sinaloa Cartel and Tijuana Cartel assumed control of what remained of the Guadalajara Cartel.
