Griselda Blanco and Miami's Drug Wars: Netflix's New Narcos
🕑 Added 2024-01-23 07:44:27 +0000 UTCDubbed the Cocaine Godmother and the Black Widow, Griselda Blanco rose to power when the cocaine boom was taking off and Colombian cartels started pumping product into the US, mainly through Miami. As the floodgates opened and tens of millions of dollars were being made on the streets, everyone wanted to be on top of pyramid, including Griselda...and she was more than willing to have people killed to get there, innocent or otherwise.
Griselda's shooters turned Miami into a war zone as her Colombian connections in her hometown of Medellin got her a never-ending supply of the best product...but even the cartels soon tired of her recklessness and bloodthirsty methods. Now the inspiration for a new Netflix Series starring Sofia Vergara (call Sean!)

The show Danny is thinking of is a Portuguese show called Turning the Tide, about cocaine washing up on the beaches of the Azores islands. Great show!
