Episode 4
Published 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
We trace Pablo Escobar’s arc from teenage theft to cartel leader and rooftop fugitive, and we map how geography, demand, and weak institutions let cocaine money outpace the Colombian state. The story moves through narco-populism, political capture, terror, and the fragmented violence that followed his death.
