For over a decade, a mysterious Colombian drug baron takes the United States by storm with an unprecedented tidalwave of gangland warfare, sweeping from coast to coast.
This is the story of her metamorphosis into a homicidal sociopath; how the ruthless murder of her many lovers earns her the name The Black Widow; and how, after a decade-long manhunt, the DEA's finest agents bring this deadly matriarchal mastermind to justice.
Griselda Blanco Restrepo, known as the Black Widow, was a Colombian drug lady of the Medellín Cartel, and in the Miami-based cocaine drug trade and underworld, during the 1980s through the early 2000s. She was shot dead on September 3, 2012, at the age of 69.
