Alejandro Edda portrayed Jorge Ochoa, a Colombian drug trafficker, in the 2017 movie American Made. What happened to Ochoa in real life?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT American Made tells the true story of Barry Seal, a pilot, and his connection to Jorge Ochoa, a Colombian drug trafficker with the Medellín Cartel, in the late 1970s and 1980s. Alejandro Edda played Jorge in the 2017 action comedy film, which mainly highlighted the crimes and actions of Seal . But the movie also featured the infamous cartel.
Since American Made mainly focused on Seal's story, the film did not explain what happened to the cartel members, including Jorge, following Seal's assassination. Seal was first a pilot with the Trans World Airlines before he began smuggling drugs into the United States for the Medellín Cartel. He was later arrested for his crimes and made a deal with the Drug Enforcement Administration to become an informant and lessen his sentence.
Jorge Ochoa Was Accused & Arrested For Crimes In 1986 & 1987 But Was Released Following Seal's death, as depicted at the end of American Made, Jorge Ochoa ran into a lot of legal trouble. In November 1986, a grand jury in Miami accused Jorge of conspiracy to smuggle cocaine. The United States tried to get Colombia to extradite the Colombian drug trafficker, but Jorge soon disappeared and went into hiding. A year later, Jorge was arrested in Colombia on bull smuggling charges.
