INTERVIEWER: You learned English in Colombia
or in the United States or--
Watching TV, man.
INTERVIEWER: Watching TV?
Watching TV, hiding all the time.
My name is Sebastián Marroquín, formerly Juan Pablo Escobar.
I am the son of Pablo Escobar.
I grew up living a life full of money, full of power.
My father at the time, he was perhaps one
of the richest men in Colombia.
I realized very early that he was a bandit because he told
me when I was seven years old.
So you can imagine, being a child,
perhaps you know the meaning of the word bandit.
But you don't realize how huge the organization
was that my father was in charge of.
REPORTER: Pablo Escobar has been identified
by American authorities as Colombia's
leading exporter of cocaine.
The Escobar family has reportedly amassed nearly $2
billion smuggling 1,100 pounds of refined cocaine
into the United States every month.
SEBASTI N MARROQU N: We were living in a life
that we felt power was endless.
EXPERT: The Medellín Cartel was very rough, very vindictive.
The Cali people, they looked at it
more as a business to expand.
[speaking in spanish]
SEBASTI N MARROQU N: The Cali cartel
took control of all the Medellín cartel routes in New York.
And that make my father very upset.
MAR A ISABEL SANTOS: [speaking in spanish]
SEBASTI N MARROQU N: The Mónaco building
was our our family home.
We used to live there.
But I started to be so aware of the consequences
of my father's actions because I was
forced to hide more than he.
He was more free than--
than I was in that time.

And my father became even more crazy than ever
because he felt for one hour that all of his family
were dead.
