Product Description
Charles Cosby's life is changed forever when he writes a fan letter to the "Cocaine Godmother" Griselda Blanco, who is serving time in a federal prison. Six months later, Cosby is a multi-millionaire, Blanco's lover, and the head of her $40 million a year cocaine business. Also known as "The Black Widow" for her propensity to permanently dispose of her men when she's done with them, Blanco stops at nothing to ensure that Charles is faithful. Cosby soon learns he's in way over his head.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent, but nowhere near the original...., August 4, 2008

By	James Burns - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Three and a half stars for this. If "Cocaine Cowboys" was the Vice City of true crime, then this is the San Andreas, as we head to the west coast in the early 1990's. Hard to top the original (probably the best true crime docu ever made), but still good.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT the Griselda Blanco story!, January 17, 2009

By	J. Daniels - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the CHARLES COSBY story. Cosby was the lover of Blanco during and after her stay in prison, and nearly all of the story is told by him. VERY dubious credibility, and just plain dull. Cop "The Godmother" by Richard Smitten and skip this dreck.

4.0 out of 5 stars DEEP!, September 5, 2008

By	Aaron D. Brown "Tha Plus" (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This time we got to know the "godmother" up close and personal, if hollywood slept on the first installment i guranntee they'll jump on this one(if the bootleggers dont beat'um to the punch) But solid story line front to back. I must say "godmother" was indeed a very complex individual
