The wreckage of the pink Miami mansion formerly owned by notorious drug lord Pablo Escobar has surrendered one last secret left behind by the dead super criminal: a locked safe no one seems able to open!
Escobar — whose cartel was at one point responsible for 80 percent of the cocaine smuggled into the United States — was notorious for hiding drugs, cash and weapons on his properties, so the safe — which weighs some 560-700 lbs. — could contain anything!
“Pablito is now my best friend,” joked Christian de Berdouare, who bought the property with his wife, Jennifer Valoppi, in 2014. He said he hopes it’s full of “gold or diamonds.”

Unfortunately, no one has been able to crack the safe thus far.
Christian was having the $10 million mansion, which overlooked Biscayne Bay, demolished so he could build on the land when the discovery was made by laborers. A different safe was found buried under a different part of the mansion last week — but it was stolen before Christian could have it salvaged! Local police are investigating that theft.
Escobar was killed in a 1993 shoot-out with Colombian National Police in Medellín, Colombia. His distinctively colored Miami mansion had been seized by the U.S. government six years before his death.

Escobar’s rise to power was portrayed in hit Netflix series “Narcos.”
