American Desperado: My Life–From Mafia Soldier to Cocaine Cowboy to Secret Government Asset Audiobook (Free)

The real story of super-criminal Jon Roberts, star of the documentary Cocaine Cowboys.

American Desperado is certainly Roberts’ no-holds-barred account to be created into Mafia royalty, witnessing his 1st murder at the age of seven, becoming a hunter-assassin in Vietnam, time for NY to become–at age 22–1 from the city’s leading nightclub impresarios, then journeying to Miami where in a few brief years he would rise to become the Medellin Cartel’s most effective smuggler.

But that’s just half the tale.

The roster of Roberts’ friends and acquaintances reads just like a Who’s Who of the second option half from the 20th century and includes everyone from Jimi Hendrix, Richard Pryor, and O.J. Simpson to Carlo Gambino, Meyer Lansky, and Manuel Noriega.

Nothing at all if not colorful, Roberts encircled himself with beautiful females, drove his souped-up street car at a high acceleration of 180 mls per hour, shared his bed with a 200-pound cougar, and employed a 6”6” professional wrestler called “The Thing” as his bodyguard. Eventually, Roberts became therefore powerful that he seduced the attention from the Republican Party’s command, was wooed by them, as well as was co-opted from the CIA for which he carried out its secret agenda.

Scrupulously documented and relentlessly propulsive, this collaboration between a bloodhound journalist and one of the most audacious criminals ever is like simply no other crime book you’ve ever read.
