El Chapo lawyer: Defense has nothing to prove

A lawyer for the Mexican drug lord known as “El Chapo” says he’s ready to defend his client and has nothing to prove.
Eduardo Balarezo spoke to journalists on Tuesday while entering the highly secured Brooklyn federal courthouse where Joaquin Guzman (wah-KEEN’ gooz-MAHN’) is being tried.
One of the jurors was excused shortly before opening statements were set to begin. The reason was unclear.
The lawyers and judge have been working to select a replacement. It’s not known how long that will take.
