Episode 016 - Son of CIA Assassin Monkey Morales, Ricardo Morales, Jr
Manage episode 249640268 series 2543327
Obviously all of our dads were communist exile mercenaries, CIA trained killers, and muscle for Miami's cocaine kingpins. But here's yet another child of one of those.
Monkey Morales rose to both fame and infamy when he escaped Cuba after working there as a member of the secret police and went to work for the CIA, eradicating those they wanted eliminated. His assignments of bombings and shootings would take him around the globe. From there the Monkey ends up at the den of iniquity that was Coconut Grove's Mutiny Club working for the real life Scarfaces that inspired the film. (Need a refresher?
