LE PLUS GRAND BARON DE LA DROGUE DE LOS ANGELES À L'ÉPOQUE DU CRACK - Ricky «Freeway» Ross

Some viewers rank the series "Snowfall," which recounts the crack epidemic in Los Angeles, alongside genre giants like "The Sopranos" and "Breaking Bad." But while Tony Soprano and Walter White don't have clearly identified real-life prototypes, for Snowfall's main character, Franklin Saint, it's different: his model is Rick "Freeway" Ross, who stole the wheels off his teacher's car to buy his first stash of drugs and, a few years later, was making up to $3 million a day. And, as in the series, the real story also involves rebels from distant Nicaragua, drug cartels, and the American authorities. The only thing that differs considerably is the end of Ross's criminal career and his portrayal on television. But let's start from the beginning. This is Ricky Ross, on the wrong side of the law.
