Evelyn Guzman

Between April and December of 2004, local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies conducted an extensive investigation code named "Operation Pale Rider" targeting illegal drug trafficking and money laundering enterprise in the Chicago area. Twenty-three individuals were charged with participating in the drug trafficking and money laundering organization known as "Salgeiro Organization" directed by Noel Salgeiro-Nevarez. It is alleged that these individuals smuggled large quantities of cocaine to the Chicago area while funneling large amounts of cash into Mexico. Guzman is accused serving as a courier for the Salgeiro Organization. As a result of the "Operation Pale Rider" investigation, seizures yielded $1.9 million in U.S. currency and 100 kilograms of cocaine. Only a few of these fugitives remain at-large, including Evelyn Guzman. The Salgeiro Organization regularly engaged in violent support of its drug trafficking operations, therefore, Guzman should be considered armed and dangerous.
