Later, she again moved back to Miami

where her business empire flourished. At one point in her business, more than
1500 dealers use to work under her and hundreds of kilos of drugs were
distributed regularly in the USA. In the 1980s, she was arrested by DEA and
imprisoned for over a decade. Once out, Griselda moved to Columbia, to avoid
being arrested, where she was murdered on September 3rd, 2012.


SOFIA VERGARA AS GRISELDA BLANCO IN THE NETFLIX SHOW

Griselda doesn’t have a release date yet. Netflix only shared the first look on
Twitter. Sofia Vergara is almost unrecognizable in the photo as a drug boss. She
looks confident with a cigarette in her hand with a full makeup face.

But, as fans of Vergara, we are pretty sure she will conquer the role of Blanco,
like a queen.

The limited series will consist of six episodes with a duration of 50-minutes.
The show will be tragic, violent, and messy from the looks of it. It will tell
the story of a regular woman who became one of the world’s wealthiest drug lords
through her merciless and violent ways of doing business.

We are quite sure Sofia Vergara will make a great Griselda Blanco.
