Скачать или смотреть Bumpy Johnson Met Carlos Lehder at 17 in PRISON—What He Taught Made DEA Hunt Him 20 Years

July 7th, 1968. Hours before Bumpy Johnson died of a heart attack in Harlem, he told Frank Lucas about a kid he'd met in prison two years earlier. A seventeen-year-old Colombian kid named Carlos Lehder who'd been caught smuggling marijuana in a stolen car.

"That kid is going to be bigger than all of us," Bumpy said.

Frank didn't understand what Bumpy meant. But twenty years later, when Carlos Lehder was arrested for running the most sophisticated cocaine operation in history, Frank finally understood.

In 1966, Bumpy Johnson spent three weeks in Rikers Island on a contempt charge. During those three weeks, he met Carlos Lehder. And in the prison yard, over a series of conversations, Bumpy taught Carlos something that would change the future of the drug trade forever.

He taught him about islands. About invisibility. About thinking long-term. About building empires that last.

Carlos listened. He remembered. And eight years after Bumpy's death, Carlos bought Norman's Cay and turned Bumpy's vision into reality.

This is the untold story of the teacher and the student. The legend who died in 1968 and the protégé who built a $2 billion empire using the blueprint his teacher gave him.
