Pablo Escobar

The mind-blowing true story of Pablo Escobar and the Medell n Cartel beyond their portrayal on Netflix. Colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar was a devoted family man and a psychopathic killer; a terrible enemy, yet a wonderful friend. While donating millions to the poor, he bombed and tortured his enemies - some had their eyeballs removed with hot spoons. Through ruthless cunning and America's insatiable appetite for cocaine, he became a multi-billionaire, who lived in a $100-million house with its own zoo. Pablo Escobar: Beyond Narcos demolishes the standard good versus evil telling of his story. The authorities were not hunting Pablo down to stop his cocaine business. They were taking it over. Shaun Attwood's War on Drugs series - Pablo Escobar, American Made, We Are Being Lied To and The Cali Cartel - are harrowing, action-packed and interlinked true stories that demonstrate the catastrophic consequences of drug prohibition.
