SMH… Every dog may have his day, but Papo Perez had to learn the hard way that the world wasn’t his — chico! Cocaine kingpin Ceferino “Papo” Perez was so smitten with the movie “Scarface” that police say he kept a framed picture from the movie with his face posted over Al Pacino’s next to his bed in one of his homes in Yonkers. Unlike Tony Montana, Perez lived to experience his unhappy ending. One-time popped Perez earlier this week and charged him with running an $80,000 a week yayo delivery service. “He was very proud of what he was going. He was quite arrogant and narcissistic,” said NYPD Inspector Lori Pollock. Papo’s crew, which included his wife Elsie Detres-Perez and 20 others, were arrested following a year-long investigation. Nine cars, $550,000 in cash and “pounds and pounds” of gold jewelry were also seized, along with three guns, including a MAC-11 semi-automatic machine pistol, and six pounds of marijuana. Investigators say despite his large fortune, Perez put his wife to work for him packaging product. “My wife needs the money, so she is willing to do it,” Perez, 44, was caught on tape telling another alleged packager in March, according to an indictment in the case. “You bag up, and she seals,” he said of the 1,500-Ziploc-a-day process. Both have pleaded not guilty to drug conspiracy and other charges. Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance said he believes the arrests have shut Perez’s crew down for good. “This enterprise is over,” he said. Boy, we tell ya… Folks gettin’ caught up trying to do it like they see in the movies. This guy is gonna get eaten up in court, it sounds like he got real sloppy. Source
