About
The Sicario Effect is a new series from Exclave Media. Jhon Jairo Velasquez Vasquez alias "Popeye" was Pablo Escobar's top lieutenant and The Medellin Cartel's chief sicario (assassin). He's publicly admitted to having personally killed 300 people. In 2014, after 23 years in prison, Popeye was released. Rather than lay low and enjoy his new freedom, he took to the internet and became a social media star, "Popeye the Repentant". And as we discovered, that's just the beginning. This is a story about crime, drugs, corruption, and a country's fight to control their narrative about the past, present, and future.
