Can a son truly escape the shadow of his father, especially when that father was Pablo Escobar, the notorious drug lord? Sebastián Marroquín, formerly Juan Pablo Escobar, has spent his life attempting to do just that, forging his own path as an architect, author, and peace advocate.
The weight of his father's legacy is undeniable. Pablo Escobar, at the height of his power, controlled an estimated 80% of the global cocaine market, amassing a fortune that reached approximately $30 billion by the time of his death in 1993. This immense wealth, built on the suffering of countless individuals, casts a long shadow over Marroquín's life, influencing his choices and shaping his identity. He changed his name to distance himself from his father's criminal empire, seeking a fresh start and a chance to define himself on his own terms.
