The man behind it is Roberto Suarez Gomez, known as El Rey de la Cocaina, the King of Cocaine, a cattle rancher who turns his family's airstrips and land records into the financial backbone of an entire industry. He controls enough of the paste supply to offer his government roughly three billion dollars for his own immunity, with a military government providing the cover and an interior minister on his side. A small DEA team running Operation Hun works undercover across two countries, with no photograph of Suarez, no extradition treaty and no cooperative government to hand him over. Whether any outside force can reach a man whose own state is his protection is the question the hunt cannot yet answer.\r\n\r\nThis episode was created with artificial intelligence: AI-assisted script and AI-generated (synthetic) voice.","author_name":"Creators Obomedia"}
