He had a fleet of more than 20 planes and more than ten helicopters for the job. He went to drug business because it was an untapped territory. Each plane per flight would bring home around $500k.

As the demand for cocaine increased in the USA Escobar and co-founder of cartel Carlos Lehder increased his smuggling routes such as the Bahamas. Its estimated that around 70 and 80 tons of cocaine were being shipped every month to the united states. When he was elected as a member at the Chamber of Representatives of Colombia, his Medellin cartel increased the distribution to countries such as pain, Mexico, Venezuela, and continents such as Asia and Europe.

Escobar was to be extradited to the united states together with others through a court process, and before that would happen, the Palace of Justice siege conducted by 19th of April movement murdered half of the judges and burn all files.

Escobar was responsible for the killing of so many people, and Colombia turned to be worlds murder capital where police and government officials were murdered every day. He was captured imprisoned in a luxurious prison known as La Catedral then shifted after a year to conventional jail where he escaped in 1992. after 16 months of the escape, Escobar died in 1993 in a shootout all in a bid to evade being captured by Search Bloc.
