Pablo Escobar

Beyond Narcos

By: Shaun Attwood

Narrated by: Max Tilney

The mind-blowing true story of Pablo Escobar and the Medellín 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 trilogy - Pablo Escobar, American Made, and We Are Being Lied To - is a series of harrowing, action-packed and interlinked true stories that demonstrate the catastrophic consequences of drug prohibition.

Highly recommended

Shaun Attwood's "Pablo Escobar" covers the history of cocaine, and details the CIA's involvement in transporting drugs into the United States. In the book, a whistleblower characterizes the CIA as the "world's biggest mafia." The author provides evidence that the "war on drugs" campaign was simply a war on competition. Rather than decriminalizing drugs, Ronald Reagan and George Bush's administration's doubled the U.S. prison population. Despite making Escobar a target, drugs kept flowing into the United States after Escobar was ultimately hunted down. Attwood addresses many conspiracy theories, such as Bush directly benefiting financially from Esbobar's death. Five star research!

The criminal Bush regime

Reminded me of the criminals we are continuing to elect to our highest office. it is. study of greed and the calousness of the American elite who operate above the law

Riveting truth of our selfish, money hungry govmt

If you think your government cares about you, you are sadly mistaken. Everyone should read this series. The U.S government cares only for itself.
