December 1, 1944 was the day Pablo Emilio was born in the village of Rivnegro. The third child in a family of nine. The one who started making small and big mistakes since he was a teenager. Stealing gravestones and then polishing them and selling them to smugglers, until he reached bigger jobs. Cigarette smuggling, robbery, kidnapping and hostage taking. Jobs that could make money from them - which was a rare commodity in the Escobar family - although not very honorable money. It seems that the upbringing of his teacher's mother had not left much of an impression on him. This was the beginning of the path that gradually turned a Colombian farmer into the biggest drug trafficker in history. Someone who once controlled 80% of cocaine trafficking in the world and in 1989, according to Forbes magazine, ranked seventh in the list of the ten richest men in the world; With a wealth that was estimated at around 35 billion dollars at that time. A figure that was approximately equivalent to 70 billion dollars in 2022. A legendary fortune made by smuggling cocaine. And interestingly, all this huge wealth and this extensive influence in the drug industry happened only and only during 44 years of life. Join us in the first part of Pablo Escobar's three-part series from Rokh podcast. ----------------------------------------------------- ---------- Download the audio version of this episode through the following link: https://mcdn.podbean.com/mf/web/z34kk... ------------ ----------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------- Introduction 2:10 Colombia 4:15 Birth of Pablo and family 6:46 Start Violating 9:36 Pablo in 1970 10:18 Stealing Diego Echavarria 11:12 Getting to know Mr. Cockroach 12:37 Getting to know cocaine at the height of its popularity 15:57 Different ways of smuggling 18:43 Marrying Victoria 23:22 Profit and Pablo's income 24:21 Pablo's mansion 27:33 Fixing the public image between people 30:15 The smuggling team 32:35 The story of the kidnapping of the Ochoa brothers' sister 33:45 Entering the world of politics 40:40 The story of Lara, the Minister of Justice 48:52 Emigrating to Panama and Nicaragua and the photos scandal 54:24 Return to Colombia and the establishment of extradition organizations --------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- ------------ Suggested videos: Reign of terror: Khmer Rouge in Cambodia • Reign of terror: Khmer Rouge in Cambodia Ted Kaczynski, prophet of the bomber! • Ted Kaczynski, the prophet of the bomber!
