A diligent cattle farmer and dedicated school teacher in Medellin, Colombia had a son who was a good student. During the course of his studies, he was expelled from school. To make ends meet, he began stealing gravestones. His foray into petty crimes led him to steal cars and landed him in jail. Upon his release, he entered the high stakes world of drug trafficking. Pablo Escobar dominated the global heroin and cocaine trade in the 1980s and had an estimated net worth of $30 billion. This is his story.




He was as brilliant as he was ruthless. Always ahead of his competitors and law enforcement agencies, he used airplanes, high-speed boats, and even submarines to transport heroin and money. His organization, the Medellin Cartel, had a presence everywhere in the world and the people loved him.




At the height of his career, he secured a position in the Colombian Congress, and with it became immune to prosecution. He was also fiercely loyal and his family was considered his Achilles heel. Learn about the man who was an enigma to some, a dreaded enemy to others, while considered a hero by many.
