Javier “Panama” Card, once a prominent drug kingpin in Washington D.C., opens up about the consequences of his life choices and the harsh realities of his banishment from the United States. In a candid interview, Card reflects on how a lack of belief in his own potential early on fueled his entry into drug trafficking—a path that ultimately led to a 113-year prison sentence. Despite his mother’s emphasis on education, he lacked a strong male role model to inspire him towards a different future.
Card compares himself not to the “gangsters” he once knew, but to powerful figures in the government pulling strings behind the scenes, highlighting the disparity in power and resources. Now living in Panama, Card faces a lifetime ban from the U.S., a painful separation from his children and grandchildren. Yet he’s dedicated to introspection and growth, having studied psychology to understand his past and chart a new path.
