Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria (December 1, 1949 - December 2, 1993) was a Colombian drug lord. He is regarded as the richest and most successful criminal in world history, and, in 1989, Forbes magazine declared Escobar as the seventh richest man in the world, with an estimated personal fortune of USD 9 billion. * Escobar is the inspiration behind Mexican Death Metal band Brujeria's song "El Patron" on their 1995 album "Raza Odidada" * Escobar is depicted in the 2001 drama film Blow in which Escobar becomes a business contact of the main character George Jung. The movie highlights George Jung's role in Escobar's early cocaine smuggling operation. * Photographer James Mollison's book The Memory of Pablo Escobar tells Pablo's story with over 350 photographs and documents. The journalist Rainbow Nelson conducted over 100 interviews with family members, Medellin Cartel associates, Colombian police & judges, and survivors of Escobar's killing sprees. * Escobar is mentioned as a cartel leader in the 2006 documentary film Cocaine Cowboys. * In the HBO television series Entourage, actor Vincent Chase (played by Adrian Grenier) plays Escobar in a fictional film entitled Medellin. * Gabriel García Márquez' book, News of a Kidnapping, details the series of abductions that Escobar masterminded to pressure the then Colombian government into guaranteeing him non-extradition if he turned himself in. * Escobar is also the subject of an episode in a documentary series called Situation Critical, in production as of September 2007. * In the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City the airport is named after him ("Escobar International"). * Colombian writer Laura Restrepo uses Escobar as a character to move part of the plot in Delirio. * Rapper Nas called himself Nas Escobar. * Argentine rock and roll band Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota made a song about Escobar's death called "Me matan Limón" ("They kill me Limón") which is based upon the last days of the drug lord and his only loyal bodyguard Álvaro de Jesús Agudelo known as "El Limón" (The Lemon). Limon was killed while fleeing police with Escobar, giving his life to protect him. * Escobar is compared to Attila the Hun in episode 2 of the History Channel program Ancients Behaving Badly. * On The Boondocks character Riley Freeman has various nicknames but one of them is Riley Escobar. * In late 2007 a street mix version of Rick Ross song Hustlin' featuring Busta Rhymes emerged, in which Busta Rhymes makes reference to Escobar, his children and his publicized route of drug smuggling into the USA. * In January 2010 after several failed attempts to take Pablo Escobar's life to the big screen by numerous Hollywood filmmakers, the documentary "Sins of My Father", directed by Nicolas Entel premiered at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival. It was received with wide acclaim, The Hollywood reporter called it "masterwork". US rights were quickly nabbed by HBO which is planning to air the film in late 2010. * In episode 8 series 3 of the television show Breaking Bad Pablo Escobar is mentioned. One of the characters is reading a book about some of the members of the police who were responsible for finding him. * An episode of Deadliest Warrior had the Medellín Drug Cartel pitted against the Somali Pirates. In the simulated battle, Pablo Escobar and his men are under attack by the Somali Pirates. Escobar tries to escape, but is shot by the pirates' leader. However, he manages to survive long enough to detonate a nearby car bomb, killing both him and the head pirate. * In the 2010 ESPN broadcast "30 for 30", a series of sports-themed documentaries timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the Entertainment and Sports Network. "The Two Escobars" by directors Jeff and Michael Zimbalist looked back at Colombia's World Cup run in 1994 and the relationship of sports and the country's criminal gangs—notably the Medellin narcotics cartel run by Escobar. The other Escobar in the film title refers to former Colombian National Team defender Andres Escobar, who was shot and killed one month after an own goal cost Colombia in the 1994 FIFA World Cup.

if you really want to eliminate all the crime behind drug dealing.. there's a simple and fair way: make them legal. learn to take responsibility of your mistakes, instead of stupidly blaming them on a drug or on its dealer.
the reality is, by keeping them illegal people in power make loads of money with it.

a gang of lawyers ramble on and on about absolutely nothing to cover up the cash they make off the poor self medicating victims, magnitudes above the tiny cartels, which would disappear, with deregulation and treating the self medicators for the physiological anomolies, resulting in a safer better quality of life, albeit less magnitudes of lawyers unengaged in their brand of criminality
