Historie

After walking out of his luxurious prison, Pablo Escobar is back on the run. With the Colombian government humiliated, they turn to the United States for a new kind of help: a specialized, elite force. The answer comes in the form of a Delta Force team. Their mission is to train and advise the Colombian search bloc, but their ultimate goal is to find Pablo once and for all.

In the penultimate episode of our series on Pablo Escobar, Gordon and David explore the full-scale manhunt that ensues once the drug kingpin escapes. They detail the collaboration and bureaucratic clashes between a mix of US intelligence agencies and the Colombian military. With advanced technology from Centra Spike and the CIA, the hunt is on, but Pablo proves to be an elusive target.

From a dramatic prison escape to the deployment of America's most elite commandos, this is the story of how the hunt for Escobar became a coordinated international operation.
