Ricky Donnell Ross (born 1960), known as Freeway Rick Ross, was the most prolific crack cocaine dealer in Los Angeles history, at his peak moving $3 million in drugs daily. His supplier was Óscar Danlly Blandón, who was connected to the Nicaraguan Contras — a connection that spawned the controversial claim that the CIA helped fund Contra operations through crack cocaine sales in Black communities. He is now an anti-drug activist.
