Amado Carrillo Fuentes
Amado Carrillo Fuentes, known as 'The Lord of The Skies,' was a notorious Mexican drug lord who led the Juárez Cartel in the 1990s. He gained this nickname due to his extensive use of aircraft to transport drugs, primarily cocaine, from Colombia to the United States. Carrillo Fuentes was known for his wealth and influence in the drug trade, but his reign ended with his death in 1997 during a botched plastic surgery procedure. His legacy continues to impact drug trafficking operations in Mexico, and he is often referenced in discussions about the violence and corruption associated with the drug trade.
