Notorious Ecuadoran drug trafficker Adolfo Macias, alias “Fito,” pleaded not guilty Monday at an arraignment in the United States, a month after he was recaptured following a 2024 prison escape.
The leader of the Los Choneros gang pleaded “not guilty” through his lawyer to seven charges including drug trafficking and arms trafficking, punishable by 20 years to life imprisonment.
