Max Mermelstein
Max Mermelstein (November 1, 1942 – September 12, 2008) was a drug smuggler for the Medellín Cartel in the late 70s and early 80s, who later became a key informant against the organization. In the words of James P. Walsh, Los Angeles Federal Prosecutor, "Max Mermelstein was probably the single most valuable government witness in drug matters that this country has ever known."〔http://newsmine.org/content.php?ol=cabal-elite/cia-drug-mafia/one-man-dangerous-game.txt〕 He became a "weapon for the government."〔http://newsmine.org/content.php?ol=cabal-elite/cia-drug-mafia/one-man-dangerous-game.txt〕
Reputed to have smuggled 56 tons of cocaine worth $12.5 billion into the US,〔http://www.fear.org/witnss1.html〕 Max was described by his attorney Tom Johnston as "just a nice Jewish guy who got into the wrong industry."〔http://newsmine.org/content.php?ol=cabal-elite/cia-drug-mafia/one-man-dangerous-game.txt〕 Trained as a mechanical engineer in New York and married to a Puerto Rican, he moved to San Juan, Puerto Rico with his wife, and worked as chief engineer for the Sheraton Hotel. They separated soon after she left him to return to her ailing mother, but not before Max learned perfect "street Spanish".
While working for the Sheraton he met a Colombian woman, Cristina Jaramillo, and they were soon married. After accepting another job at the Princess Hotel in Freeport in the Bahamas, Max began his first limited criminal activity by creating an "underground pipeline" to help smuggle his wife's Colombian relatives and childhood friends into the United States.
==Under the Gun==
One of those "friends" was Rafael Cardona Salazar, a.k.a. "Rafa"; a five-foot three sociopath with a taste for bazooka cigarettes; an amalgamation of tobacco and cocaine stuffed back into cigarette shells. After Max returned to Miami with his family to work as chief engineer of the Aventura Country Club, he was awakened by a drug-fueled Rafa on Christmas morning 1978. Rafa insisted that Max drive him and his roommate back home after a cocaine-filled afterparty. Max agreed, and on the trip, Rafa and the roommate argued after Rafa accused the roommate of stealing. In a rage, Rafa shot him to death at close range. Fearing for his own life, Max continued to drive until they stopped to dispose of the body at a road shoulder. They then returned to Rafa's apartment where Rafa told Max, "You work for me now". ()
