Probably because he’s going to kill him….

Actor Sean Penn is breaking his silence about his trip to Mexico to meet notorious drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman. In an interview for this Sunday’s “60 Minutes,” Penn spoke to “CBS This Morning” co-host Charlie Rose Thursday night in Santa Monica to talk about his seven hours with Guzman.
The cartel leader was re-captured a week ago, and Penn made headlines the following day when Rolling Stone published his account of visiting the kingpin in hiding last October.
“There is this myth about the visit that we made, my colleagues and I with El Chapo, that it was — as the Attorney General of Mexico is quoted — ‘essential’ to his capture,” Penn said. “We had met with him many weeks earlier…on October 2nd, in a place nowhere near where he was captured.”
“So as far as you know, you had nothing to do and your visit had nothing to do with his recapture?” Rose asked.
