En la boca del lobo


En la boca del lobo is a Colombian telenovela produced by Sony Pictures Television and Teleset for RCN Televisión and UniMás. Based on the book En la boca del lobo: La historia jamás contada del hombre que hizo caer el cartel de Cali from William C. Rempel.
Both the series and the book by William C. Rempel and Jorge Salcedo have been openly criticized by William Rodríguez Abadía, son of Miguel Rodríguez Orejuela, not only for how drug trafficking is glorified, but also for several inconsistencies shown in the book, also stating that Jorge Salcedo started working for the Cali Cartel just months before the capture of its leaders, and that the real head of security was Mario del Basto.
