Pedro Suarez

Pedro Suarez was the owner of Pedro's Pawn Shop in Miami, Florida during the 1980s. In 1984, he was contacted by drug lord Tony Montana, who sought to purchase Pedro's Pawn Shop and turn it into a front for his cocaine trafficking business. Suarez agreed to help Montana in exchange for Montana getting rid of some hot merchandise at the store; Montana dropped the merchandise at three separate locations before the Miami Police Department could arrive. Suarez was then bought out for $50,000, and he assisted Montana with distributing his cocaine.
