Griselda Blanco: Everything to Know About the Colombian Drug Lord Before Watching Sofia Vergara Miniseries

Vergara's 'Griselda' miniseries debuts Jan. 25 on Netflix.

With dozens of drug dealers and hardened thugs in her employ and under her command, Blanco ruled her operation with an iron fist and a baseball bat -- moments that play a big role in the recent trailers for the forthcoming show. While drive-by shootings often led to collateral damage and unintended deaths, it seems those drawbacks didn't deter Griselda from favoring them as a means of assassination. Sofia Vergara will portray the Cocaine Godmother in Griselda-- which also stars Alberto Guerra, Christian Tappan, Martín Rodríguez, Juliana Aidén Martinez, Vanessa Ferlito, and includes a guest appearance from Colombian singer Karol G.
