The Miami Ransom: A $3 Million Terrorist Demand

True Crime

About this episode

In the heat of an August 1984, the son of a prominent Miami real estate developer was snatched off the street, plunging his powerful family into a nightmare. The crisis escalated when the kidnappers issued a staggering $3 million ransom demand and identified themselves as political terrorists. As the FBI became involved, agents quickly began to piece together a different motive, one rooted in a personal vendetta. Their investigation zeroed in on a pair of Colombian nationals with a known and bitter grudge against the businessman's family, turning an international terrorist incident into a relentless pursuit of a deeply personal revenge.
