Justice has been served.
The 69-year-old Blanco was shot twice in the head outside the shop in the Belen neighborhood by a hitman who sped away on a motorcycle.
She was with her pregnant daughter-in-law, who was not hurt in the shooting, police spokesmen said.
Blanco came up with the idea of “exporting cocaine” to the United States and was known for not hesitating to kill anyone, including one of her husbands, who got in her way.
Blanco was convicted of conspiracy to smuggle cocaine into the United States in 1985, served two decades in prison and was deported to Colombia in 2004.
The former drug trafficker kept a low profile since returning to Colombia despite once being considered one of the wealthiest women in the world. EFE
