Sean Penn Worried His Head Will Be El Chapoed Off

TMZ-

Sean Penn is using a full-court press to either block or re-edit a Netflix documentary that suggests Penn ratted out El Chapo by alerting the United States Dept. of Justice of his whereabouts.

Multiple sources involved in the documentary — due out Friday — tell TMZ, some of the people interviewed suggest that Penn alerted the DOJ that he was traveling down to a secret location in Mexico to interview the drug kingpin for a Rolling Stone article.TMZ has obtained an email from David Broome, the Executive Producer of “The Day I Met El Chapo: The Kate del Castillo Story,” in which he worries …

“My concern is that we are taking an immense amount of pressure from all directions related to Sean Penn and currently Netflix has done a great job of hanging tough — but their nerves are on edge.”Broome goes on … “I’m worried that there’s a chance Netflix hits the brakes for a while.”

Penn, del Castillo and 2 others met Chapo on Sept. 28, 2015. Twelve hours after the meeting, Mexican authorities raided the site but Chapo had already left. He was captured 3 months later.

We’ve learned several lawyers working for Penn repeatedly contacted Netflix to, at the very least, eliminate any references to their client contacting DOJ prior to meeting Chapo.Our sources say Penn’s concern is that if Chapo’s associates in the world of drugs believe he set Chapo up for capture, there’d be a target on the heads of Penn, his family and his associates.

  1. When you hang out with South American Socialist Dictators with ties to Iran and Drug Cartel leaders, someone will whack you…..sooner or later.
    Even if you tip off the Obama DOJ before you go.
    There must have been one patriotic employee at DOJ then.

  2. Considering that a producer for another Netflix Series, Narcos, got whacked scouting locations in Mexico last month for the upcoming season, I’d say Penn has every right to be chunking in his drawers.

    The hombres don’t fook around.

  3. I’ve seen at least one of the decapitation videos that the drug cartels made as a warning to others (or maybe just for their own amusement, who knows?). A large knife is involved, but I’m not going to go into any other details.

    Let’s just say that it ain’t too quick and it ain’t too pretty.
