Overview

Este libro todavía no ha sido llevado al cine ni a la televisión. Pronto será una película protagonizada por Manolo Cardona y el actor estadounidense Tom Sizamore. Esta sí es una auténtica historia, contada desde las entrañas mismas de la mafia por Carmelo, uno de los hombres más cercanos a Diego Montoya, el narcotraficante colombiano extraditado a los Estados Unidos. Hijo de pistolero, Carmelo fue el fiel jefe de seguridad de Montoya y testigo privilegiado y protagonista de la guerra que se vivió en las entrañas del cartel del Norte del Valle. El libro relata detalles de cómo se manejaban los negocios del gran capo, cómo funcionaban las riesgosas cocinas, la búsqueda de nuevas rutas para burlar a las autoridades, los escandalosos nexos con algunos miembros de la Fuerza Pública y con renombrados políticos. El cartel de los sapos 2 muestra aspectos desconocidos de las relaciones de la mafia con el paramilitarismo y del papel que las AUC, de Carlos y Vicente Castaño, desempeñó en el manejo del negocio y de la guerra interna del cartel durante las conversaciones en Santa Fe de Ralito; de cómo los dos bandos criminales se movían por todo el país planeando venganzas y matanzas y moviendo sus cargamentos. También explica el origen de esa guerra sin cuartel que, en últimas, ocasiona la captura de Don Diego, alcohólico y avaro, y el fin del cartel del Norte del Valle. Esta historia también arroja luces sobre los posibles autores del magnicidio del ex candidato presidencial Álvaro Gómez Hurtado, en noviembre de 1995; pero también cuenta quiénes ordenaron y quiénes ejecutaron los asesinatos de Wilber Varela, Jabón, uno de los más prominentes jefes de ese cartel mafioso y del coronel de la Policía, Danilo González, un brillante oficial que luego de colgar el uniforme se puso al servicio de la crema y nata del narcotráfico colombiano. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The film version of El Cartel de los Sapos opening May 2011 and starring Manolo Cardona and Tom Sizemore, presents the inside story of Colombia's drug world as told by Carmelo, a key player in the Norte del Valle Cartel. As the son of a hired gunman, Carmelo grew up to become chief of security for Diego Montoya, head of the notorious Norte del Valle Cartel. The key position he played within the extradited drug lord's organization allowed him to be a privileged witness and leading player in the war that consumed the cartel. The book walks the reader through each and every aspect of Montoya's drug empire, from the workings of the dangerous "kitchens," (drug labs) reconnaissance missions for new drug routes to evade the authorities, and the shocking links to members of Colombia's Fuerza Pública as well as renowned politicians. El cartel de los sapos 2 unveils previously unknown aspects of the relationship between the drug mafias and paramilitary groups, the role the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (or AUC, in Spanish), and the internal conflicts during the Santa Fe de Ralito summit. The story also throws some light into the possible authors of the assassination of presidential candidate Álvaro Gómez Hurtado in November of 1995, and reveals who ordered—and who carried out—the murder of Wilber Varela, alias Jabón, one of the most prominent leaders of the drug cartel, and the murder of Danilo González, the former police chief who retired from the force to sell his expertise to high ranking drug dealers. The story is so accurately portrayed, readers will feel they are live witnesses of a world where the price for a transgression is a life, and the fight for power and territory is synonymous with bloodbath. It also explains the origin of the merciless war which, in the end, led to the capture of the drunk and miserly Diego Montoya and the end of the Norte del Valle Cartel.
