Information

------------------------------



Two childhood friends go from high school dropouts to the most powerful drug kingpins in Miami in this true story of a crime saga that spanned decades. In a Netflix docuseries, the story of 'The Kings of Miami' brings in a complex web of crime, corruption and wealth.

Before Breaking Bad, Narcos and all the other thrillers, telenovelas and docuseries about traffickers in Netflix, there was Cocaine Cowboys. Director Billy Corben's lucid and sensational 2006 documentary about the Miami drug trade during the 80s became a cult classic and a foundational reference point for all the narco-content that came after. The wild, frenetic film was an underground sensation in hoods across America and made pop-culture icons out of cocaine traffickers like murderous drug queenpin Griselda Blanco.

It also created an empire of its own. The film was followed by "Cocaine Cowboys 2: Hustlin' with the Godmother" in 2008, which focused on small-time coke dealer Charles Cosby as he broke into the Oakland, Calif., scene. Then there was "Cocaine Cowboys: Reloaded" in 2014 containing new interviews and exclusive footage to the original documentary digging deeper into the war stories of law enforcement, lawyers, journalists, smugglers and assassins.

Fifteen years after the release of his original film comes Corben's Cocaine Cowboys: The Kings of Miami - a six-part saga on the South Florida traffickers indicted in one of the largest drug cases in U.S. history.

Alleged to be the chief U.S. distributors for two of Colombia's biggest cartels, Cuban exiles Augusto "Willy" Falcon and Salvador "Sal" Magluta were accused of smuggling over 75 tons of cocaine into the U.S. from the Colombian cities of Medellin and Cali with their own planes and boats in the 1980s. The high school friends built a reputed 2 billion USD empire that made Willy and Sal, aka "Los Muchachos," two of Miami's biggest celebrities. While law enforcement plotted their takedown, the world champion powerboat racers managed to skillfully outrun and outmaneuver prosecution for decades before the chase finally came to an end.

Featuring colorful interviews with those closest to them, their defense team, and the Feds tasked with taking them down, the series paints a vivid portrait of the last of Miami's "Cocaine Cowboys".

3)  Mountain of Evidence

Magluta was recognized and arrested by a few police officers in an office supply store in 1988. But few days later he is released after his court file has undergone a few changes. It suddenly says that he has already served a 14-month prison sentence. Everything changes in 1991: On a rainy October afternoon, a 25-man team from the U.S. Marshals raid a mansion near Miami Beach and takes Sal Magluta away in handcuffs. Hours later, the same team took Willy Falcon into custody at a house in nearby Fort Lauderdale. In the two buildings, investigators found almost a million US dollars in cash, a kilo of gold and small amounts of cocaine. As their high-profile trial begins, Willy and Sal attempt to neutralize witnesses against them in a variety of ways - some legal, others not so much.
