In the autobiography Mi vida como sicario de Pablo Escobar (2016), Jhon Jairo Velásquez Vásquez —infamously known as "Popeye"—provides a chilling, first-person account of his life as the chief assassin for the Medellín Cartel. The book serves as both a historical witness to one of Colombia’s darkest eras and a controversial attempt at personal redemption by a man who confessed to killing 250 people and organizing thousands of others. The Ascension of a Hitman Themes of Loyalty and Betrayal In the autobiography

Velásquez details his early life in Yarumal , Antioquia, and his initial attempts at a structured life within the Colombian National Police and the Navy. However, he describes a "strong desire for force and violence" that drew him back to the criminal underworld. His transition from a teenage thief to Escobar's "right-hand man" highlights the seductive power of the cartel’s wealth and the social status it briefly afforded those within its inner circle. Inside the Medellín Cartel

A recurring theme is Velásquez's unwavering, almost cult-like loyalty to Pablo Escobar, whom he often portrays with a mix of fear and reverence. He explores the "logic" of the narco-world, where mistrust and treachery were constant and lives were taken for even minor transgressions. Despite his later "spiritual change" in prison, his loyalty remained a defining feature of his public persona until his death in 2020. Controversy and "Narco-Star" Culture
