11/25: Cocaine Cowboys II: Hustlin' with the Godmother shifts focus from Miami to Griselda Blanco and doesn't disappoint once again.

Sure, there's a small overlap between the documentary and Cocaine Cowboys. Some of the tale is really hard to believe. Why didn't the government do anything for a long time? How is it possible that Charles Cosby made so much money from dealing drugs and not go to prison? Unfortunately, there isn't much online about him, making it hard to verify what I heard.

As for the kidnapping of John F. Kennedy, Jr., who cares if that did happen? I'm sure he was flattered for being thought of somebody important but in reality was a failure for the most part. Plus, he had a death wish for so long which explains the fatal plane crash in 1999.

All in all, Cocaine Cowboys II: Hustlin' with the Godmother is a riveting watch, but the story doesn't add up.
