Almost everyone has heard of Pablo Escobar and the Medellin Cartel, the people who actually started the massive, even industrial smuggling of cocaine. Our protagonist today was one of the first to help Colombians bring coke into the U.S., and for a long time remained the largest drug courier of the Medellin cartel.
Jung started with pot, reaching wholesale quantities there and shipping it directly from Mexico, then he met future Medellin cartel leader Carlos Lehder and refocused on cocaine, again pumping his illegal business to the level of the best in the business. Jung was for his contemporaries the one who dictated the new trends in the drug industry, changing the rules of the game twice in under 20 years.
So if you're interested in hearing the story of Escobar's top drug mule, played in a feature film by Johnny Depp himself, then meet George Jung, on the other side of the law.
