'She looked over her shoulder before getting into the car to be sureno one was following her' Pablo Escobar: billionaire drugs baron, ruthlessmanipulator brutal killer and jefe of the infamous Madellin cartel. A man whoseimportance in the international drug trade and renown for his charitable workamong the poor brought him influence and power in his home country of Colombia,and the unwanted attention of the American courts. Terrified of the newColombian President's determination to extradite him to America, Escobar foundthe best bargaining tools he could find: hostages.
