Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman was found guilty on all 10 counts Tuesday after a high-profile trial that lasted nearly three months and will ensure he spends the rest of his life behind bars.

Fox news reports that ,the jury of 12 people announced their decision at a federal courthouse in Brooklyn, New York on the sixth day of deliberations, affirming Guzman was the leader of the Sinaloa cartel and conspired to commit murder.

Guzman, 61, entered the courtroom wearing a charcoal suit just before 12:30 p.m. Tuesday. He stared at the jurors and remained emotionless as the judge read the verdict.

Before the jury was discharged, Guzman briefly looked at his beauty queen wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, and blew her a kiss before being removed from the room.

Aispuro also appeared to not react to the jury’s verdict, according to Fox News producers.
