Good read from 9 years ago on an American that was a big Mexican drug lord. I googled him and his Wiki page says he's currently serving a 49 yr sentence in Florida. https://www.rollingstone.com/cultur...capulco-243702/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
This was a good read. Gambling addiction sucks and can really fuck with your head. I know this to be true. She still deserves to rot in prison and never see her kids again.
Steve Barnes crashed his plane a few days ago. Both him and his niece died in the crash. I wouldn't have known who he was but I read this article last week.
#Miami Hurricanes ...have there always been rumors that one of Pata's teammates may have murdered him? https://www.espn.com/espn/feature/s...d-miami-hurricanes-football-player-bryan-pata
This one was wild and that doctor was absolutely delusional. When he got basically a life sentence I felt weirdly satisfied
Seemed like there was a half dozen people it could've been and the detectives missed quite a few opportunities
Eathan Edwards ...you know this Wehbi guy? He as big of an asshole as made out to be? https://www.elle.com/culture/amp346...-lawsuit-hollywood/?__twitter_impression=true
Wild story....Mexico is so fucked...sad... https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/13/...n-fernando.html#click=https://t.co/6D0u3Nx3pa
Really enjoyed that one yesterday. This one was really similar and just as good https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/12/21/murder-in-malta/amp
Really enjoyed this one. Women being able to make stupid decisions based on ego and lose a pile a of money is a weird form of progress but it's progress nonetheless
Sucks that he got caught when there's really no way to punish him but at least he had to remain in hiding for decades always looking over his shoulder
This is one of my favorite longforms that I've ever read....super long tho. Crazy story with lots of characters about illegal gold trading/mining... https://magazine.atavist.com/the-gilded-age-peru-gold-ntr-elemetal-illegal-mining-ferrari
Writer of the article did an excellent job of intertwining an extremely interesting story with also teaching you about how fucked up the gold industry is.
did kinda feel bad for renalda or whatever his name is (i already forgot) he was obviously a sleazy dude but they just kinda got scapegoated my one complaint was how the compliance exec seemingly swung from super strict and serious to letting them do all this stuff that they werent trying that hard to hide. wish the author had explained that
Yeah, I kept thinking the compliance guy was gonna go down in the end as well, but instead it was like...."When the shit hit the fan he quit".
Sounds like a good pick me up after reading the richest black girl where white people stole left and right from a black child and it was perfectly legal to do so. Fuck.
Very sad. Going through all that shit only to still live while sleeping with one eye open would suck.
it ended on a happy note tho. she double crossed them and got her money and just lived garishly for the rest of her life. the dream
I was shocked they didn't steal everything honestly. It's sad but that felt like the happiest possible ending
