    In 1991, Charles Cosby was selling ounces of cocaine on the inner-city streets of Oakland, California. Bringing in a couple grand a week, he was living the new American Dream. Then he wrote a fan letter to “Cocaine Godmother” Griselda Blanco - immortalized in rakontur’s Cocaine Cowboys - who was serving time at a nearby federal prison.
    Six months later, he was a multi-millionaire. Charles was not only running Blanco’s $40 million a year cocaine business, he was also her lover. When she recruited him to participate in a prison break that involved the kidnapping of JFK Jr., Charles knew he was in over his head. Also known as “The Black Widow,” for her propensity to permanently dispose of her men when she’s done with them (or when they betray her), Griselda would stop at nothing to ensure that Charles was faithful to her. And he would learn that lesson the hard way.
    This is the story of a kid from the streets who (literally) gets in bed with a Colombian queenpin. It’s New Jack City meets Scarface - only the truth!

    So let me get this straight he says he's selling 30 kilos of cocaine a week (which was about 18 to 25,000 for each kilo back in those days) Which is more than a 1/2 a million dollars a week and he wants us to believe that he went from being a drug kingpin to going back as a hitman again. Get real😅😅😅😅😅

    From I saw on Griselda Blanco Biography, Alberto Bravo wasn't kill by Griselda & not in Bogota but was murdered in Mellida. Only husband was to believe to have been killed by the Godmother was her third husband. But was stated she had murder her second husband so why the Medallion Cartel wanted her dead?

    What I don't understand is how Rivi was allegedly selling 30 kilos of coke a week in Chicago, went back to killing for Griselda, then for some reason ends up arrested for a bank robbery in Chicago. No way a guy is pushing 30 kilos a week and robs a bank himself. I mean he could've been out of the business by then but still he'd be sitting on millions of dollars if he was pushing the weight he said he was. Let's say he was making something very conservative like $2k per kilo (Probably would be way more) that's still $60k a week or $240k a month. I know he was the real deal but some parts of his story are clearly fictional.

That’s the only picture he’s shown us, aside from maybe one or two more that shows they know each other. All I’m saying is what Rivi said was almost word for word what the black guy said in CC2, I’ve seen both documentaries, the second one with the black guy, the way he talks he doesn’t seem genuine at all. He talks like he’s reading from a script. Who reflects on their life like they are trying 1000% to impress people? Sure some people are like that, which is what I’m talking about, if what he talks about is true, then that’s cool, it just seems like he was talking out his a$$ the entire time. It seemed like he did 39 takes for every cut he made in the second documentary. Only he knows the truth, if he’s telling the truth more power to him,
