But who hired Charles to off maximum john?
Chagra was active as a trafficker of marijuana beginning in the 1960s,[5] and by the 1970s was a well-known drug trafficker operating out of Las Vegas and El Paso.[6] In fact, he is described as having been "no less than the biggest marijuana smuggler in the country" during that time.[7] According to George Knapp writing for Las Vegas CityLife, he was "the undisputed marijuana kingpin of the Western world. He imported more high-grade ganja than anyone, tons at a time, planeload after planeload."[8]
Sounds like he may have had an understanding with certain elements…
