Pablo Escobar was really good at hiding. There were several times we were extremely close. many times when the coffee was still hot, and there was still food at the table where he'd sat down to eat - but, remember, he had a lot of help. People used to hide him, tip him off if they saw something suspicious. If we used a chopper, you could obviously hear it coming in from five minutes away; he had lookouts who would tell him there was a convoy coming for him. He was protected by ordinary citizens.

Along the walls of Peña’s San Antonio home, several of Murphy’s photos now stand as a testament to their chase.
