Pablo Escobar by George Mysh

A mugshot of Pablo Escobar himself

A show I've watched Recently called Narco's depicts the columbian drug lords or the medallion cartel in the 1980's while running under the main drug lord, Pablo Escobar. This man was very smart, clever, deceiving, fearless, and most of all a true villain. Although he attempted to help the people Columbia the congress would not accept a man like Pablo after seeing this picture to the left. After removing Escobar from the congress, he was upset and angry causing him to act more violent and further continue his cocaine buisness. He began making billions of dollars and started to pay most of the columbian soldiers and officers. The problem was that he began causing major attacks in public to kill political figures and other enemies. These events led up to the Columbian government and DEA targeting Escobar and his cartel. Pablo's main cartel men began being captured or getting killed causing more and more deaths between the government and cartel. Escobar's family was very important to him and he made sure to keep them safe at all times. After negotiations, betrayals, bloodshed on both sides Pablo Escobar was finally killed in 1993 which was the end of the medallion Cartel.
