Griselda Blanco's son has sued Sophia Vergara and Netflix to block the release of "Griselda." In a statement to BI, the Blancos said Netflix should compensate Michael Blanco for sharing his story. In the suit, Michael Blanco says the show's creators used his "private artistic literary work" without permission or credit, which has created "irreparable harm." Representatives for Latin World Entertainment and Vergara did not respond to requests for comment from Business Insider made outside regular working hours. Netflix"Make no mistake, Michael Blanco is humble and thrilled each and every time someone reaches out to shine a light on his mother and the Blanco family," the statement continues.
