Escobar Inc., the company owned by Pablo Escobar's brother Roberto de Jesus Escobar Gaviria, filed a lawsuit last year demanding $1 billion for using the infamous Medellí cartel founder's name and story without permission. Now, the details of their legal battle have been brought to light in new documents acquired by THR. Despite telling VICE in 2014 that cartel life was, "all behind me...I do good now," Gaviria took advantage of a Monday THR interview to threaten the company with the full weight of his previous connections. "I don't want Netflix or any other film production company to film any movies in Medellin or Colombia that relates to me or my brother Pablo without authorization from Escobar Inc.," Gaviria said. "It is very dangerous. Especially without our blessing. This is my country." more @ link --- b-bb-box <cite>boxington posted [p:887153341] in Pablo Esco...

But can criminals oppose to others making said book/movie? --- There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
