26 of The Most Dangerous Female Criminals The World Has Seen Till Date
9. Griselda Blanco: The Murderous Queen Of Cocaine
Most movies portray the drug mafia as having its own brutal and feudal drug lords and drug kings who rule with an iron first. But they all could probably take notes from “grandmotherly Griselda” who bloodied the streets of Miami for decades, ruling the drug world with her style of bloody vengeance.
Griselda was Colombian by birth and involved in the drug trade since her teenage years. Her education was all about plying drugs. She had 20 aliases, was moving 300 kilos of cocaine on a monthly basis, and was feared by even the most hardened of Colombian cartels.
She sort of invented the motorcycle drive-by killings that were so popular in the 70s and 80s, innocent bystanders be damned. Unofficial counts say that she orchestrated the killing of at least 250 people and in a rather infamous and legendary show of temper, gunned down her husband and six cohorts, suspecting them of stealing profits. She served 19 years in the US for murder and was then deported to Colombia. There, in a fitting end, she was killed when a motorcyclist shot her.
Dangerous is as dangerous does and Griselda showed the world that when women go bad, they really go rotten!
