About this episode
In the early 1970s, drug lord Pablo Escobar created the Medellín drug cartel, making him one of the most powerful men in Colombia -- and one of the richest men in the world. As his power grew, Pablo turned to increasingly violent methods to expand his empire... and was willing to murder anyone who got in his way. Money Crimes is a Crime House Original.
