Part 7: Tito Dominguez on Having Dinner with President Reagan While Being a Major Drug Smuggler
Part 1: Escobar's Drug Smuggler Tito Dominguez on Kidnapping Scammer to Get His $100K Back
--------
Tito “TJ” Dominguez sits down with Vlad to recount the surreal excess and danger of the 1980s drug era, from running a Lamborghini dealership and overnighting a car to the King of Saudi Arabia by chartered jumbo jet, to flying Concorde between New York, Europe, Zurich, Heathrow, and Charles de Gaulle. He recalls lavish days at The Palace, encounters with Leona Helmsley, and a lifestyle fueled by millions.
The conversation turns to Colombia, Carlos Lehder’s 1987 extradition to the United States, and Pablo Escobar’s violent campaign against extradition. Dominguez explains how Escobar’s decision to put bounties on police officers pushed Colombia toward crisis, with young people killing cops for cash and law enforcement forced out of uniform. He reflects on law and order, his own sons in policing, and why Escobar’s war on police helped change the country’s extradition battle.
