Mr. Dhillon went on to have a successful 30‑year career with the RCMP as an accomplished major crime investigator, police interrogator, polygraph examiner, intelligence officer, and emergency planner. He played a key role in several high-profile investigations, including the Air India Flight 182 tragedy and the Robert Pickton case. Mr. Dhillon also held various leadership roles, including overseeing the British Columbia RCMP Divisional Emergency Operations Centre and the federal Serious and Organized Crime's Intelligence section, also in British Columbia, as well as establishing and managing intelligence operations at the Provincial Intelligence Centre of British Columbia (now the Real-Time Operations Centre of British Columbia), the first of its kind in Canada. In 2013, Mr. Dhillon led the Sikh Leadership and Police Committee on Gang Violence to support youth prevention strategies within the Sikh Community. Since retiring from the RCMP in 2019, he has worked as Program Manager for the Crime Guns Intelligence and Investigations Group with the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit of British Columbia, the province's anti-gang agency. Mr. Dhillon is also deeply involved in community service. He serves on various committees and has led youth camps. He has received numerous distinctions and awards, including the Lifetime Achievement Award from The Times of Canada, the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal, the Queen Elizabeth II Golden Jubilee Medal, and the RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Award.

On today's episode, Vince welcomes back crime analyst and journalist Chris Dalby to examine how economic policies like tariffs can unintentionally empower cartels. They unpack the evolving tactics of criminal networks, explore how legitimate industries become entangled in illicit operations, and assess how U.S.-Mexico relations influence crime on both sides of the border. Chris also introduces listeners to the rise of Tren de Aragua—a Venezuelan gang expanding rapidly across the Americas—and offers a preview of his upcoming book, which exposes the group's global footprint and strategic approach to recruitment and expansion.

Mexico's tortilla industry is under threat from organized crime. In the state of Morelos, just outside Mexico City, tortilla-makers are complaining about local organized crime groups threatening and extorting them. More broadly, politicians and police are struggling to deal with a splintering roster of organized crime groups that are diversifying away from drug trafficking into a variety of new rackets including extorting local business owners, hijacking cargo trucks, and stealing lumber. One of the biggest challenges Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum will face is whether or not she can improve security and reduce violent crime in places such as Morelos. On this episode of the podcast, host Nathaniel Parish Flannery speaks to Washington Post journalist Mary Beth Sheridan about her article about how organized crime groups are targeting tortilla makers in Morelos.

True Crime Tuesday presents: How It's Done: The True Story of One Man Who Took Down Organized Crime to Save His Family with Author, Jerry Langton! Dave Lucas is like nobody you've ever met. Or maybe you have, but didn't know it. Thrown out of his home at 14, he used his wits, charm and determination to become one of the most successful drug dealers in Canada. But, after the birth of his son, he knew he had to make one last big score before getting out of the game. So, he became an undercover police agent, the first one whose life wasn't in danger. On today's TCT, Author Jerry Langton tells us about how Dave Lucas went from drug dealer with a heart of gold, to one time jewel thief to catching a case from Canadian authorities, to finding out he is going to be a father and needing to turn his life around!

This episode looks at On the Waterfront, the celebrated 1954 American film directed by Elia Kazan and written by Budd Schulberg. The film stars Marlon Brando as the ex-prize fighter turned New Jersey longshoreman Terry Malloy. Malloy struggles to stand up to mob-affiliated union boss Johnny Friendly (Lee J. Cobb) after Malloy is lured into setting up a fellow dockworker whom Friendly has murdered to prevent him from testifying before the Waterfront Crime Commission about violence and corruption at the docks. The pressure on Malloy rises as he falls in love with Edie Doyle (Eva Marie Saint), the murdered dockworker's sister, and as Edie, along with local priest Father Pete Barry (Karl Malden), urge Malloy to do the right thing. Malloy ultimately testifies against Friendly and challenges Friendly's leadership at great personal risk. While the film is about a courageous fight against a corrupt power structure and injustice, it is also influenced by director Elia Kazan's own controversial decision to act as an informant against fellow directors, writers, and actors during the McCarthy-era Red Scare.Timestamps:0:00     Introduction2:20      Corruption on the docks9:18       Boxing: I could have been a contender17:07     The priest on the waterfront23:44    Testifying before waterfront crime commission32:10     Informants34:48    Elia Kazan and the House Un-American Activities Committee47:04    The film's relevance today48:39    Some people who stood up to HUAC50:40   Separating the art and the artistFurther reading:Demeri, Michelle J., “The ‘Watchdog' Agency: Fighting Organized Crime on the Waterfront in New York and New Jersey,” 38 New Eng.

Send us a textWelcome back everyone to the conclusion of my conversation with the amazing Nick Chiarkas! I was so excited about this interview I didn't want you guys to wait for next Sunday! I really enjoyed talking to Nick and I think you guys are going to feel the same about this episode.  Nick grew up in the Al Smith housing projects on Manhattan's Lower East Side. When he was in the fourth grade, his mother was told by the principal of PS-1 that "Nick was unlikely ever to complete high school, so you must steer him toward a simple and secure vocation."

On the way, he picked up a Doctorate from Columbia University, a Law Degree from Temple University, and was a Pickett Fellow at Harvard. Not bad for a guy whose principal told his parents that he wouldn't amount to much.I found this interview to be so captivating and entertaining. I didn't want it to end. I hope you guys feel the same.

Document examiner Neil Holland has worked on documents related to investigations into alleged Nazi war criminals, accused killers and dodgy bookies, and resurrected the writing on a document found inside a corpse’s stomach. In 1985, when Neil was the head of the Victoria Police document examination branch, the National Gallery of Victoria made history - acquiring Pablo Picasso's The Weeping Woman. At $2 million, it was the most expensive artwork ever purchased by a gallery in Australia. Less than a year later, it was gone. Stolen in a daring heist that left police, the art world, and the media stunned. Eighteen days after the theft, Neil found himself in the back of a police van in the dead of night - cradling a brown paper package. Inside? The missing Picasso, taken hostage by a group calling themselves the Australian Cultural Terrorists. In this episode, he’s here to tell host Liz Porter the story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Operations Corrupt America and the World Douglas Valentine Author of three books on CIA operations, Valentine's research into CIA activities began when CIA Director William Colby gave him free access to interview CIA officials who had been involved in various aspects of the Phoenix program in South Vietnam. It was a permission Colby was to regret. The CIA would rescind it, making every effort to impede publication of The Phoenix Program, which documented the CIA's elaborate system of population surveillance, control, entrapment, imprisonment, torture and assassination in Vietnam.While researching Phoenix, Valentine learned that the CIA allowed opium and heroin to flow from its secret bases in Laos, to generals and politicians on its payroll in South Vietnam. His investigations into this illegal activity focused on the CIA's relationship with the federal drugs agencies mandated by Congress to stop illegal drugs from entering the United States. Based on interviews with senior officials, Valentine wrote two subsequent books, The Strength of the Wolf and The Strength of the Pack, showing how the CIA infiltrated federal drug law enforcement agencies and commandeered their executive management, intelligence and foreign operations staffs in order to ensure that the flow of drugs continues unimpeded to traffickers and foreign officials in its employ.Ultimately, portions of his research materials would be archived at the National Security Archive, Texas Tech University's Vietnam Center, and John Jay College.This book includes excerpts from the above titles along with subsequent articles and transcripts of interviews on a range of current topics, with a view to shedding light on the systemic dimensions of the CIA's ongoing illegal and extra-legal activities. These terrorism and drug law enforcement articles and interviews illustrate how the CIA's activities impact social and political movements abroad and in the United States.A common theme is the CIA's ability to deceive and propagandize the American public through its impenetrable government-sanctioned shield of official secrecy and plausible deniability.Though investigated by the Church Committee in 1975, CIA praxis then continues to inform CIA praxis now. Valentine tracks its steady infiltration into practices targeting the last population to be subjected to the exigencies of the American empire: the American people.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Follow us on X: @PhilBryantMS @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with Governor Phil Bryant, the State of Mississippi's 64th governor, former lieutenant governor, state auditor, legislator in the Mississippi House of Representatives and chairman of the Southern States Energy Board. Phil Bryant is a founding member of BSS Global where he provides strategic advice and business development services to some of the world's largest industry leaders. He serves on the executive advisory board of International Leaders Summit. America's Roundtable conversation with Governor Bryant brings to the forefront key policy issues including trade and tariffs, the urgency to advance tax reform, unleash energy independence and protect America's sovereignty. The timely discussion is focused on President Trump's policies and executive orders — and what it means for America's citizens, taxpayers, local communities and states. Further reading: Magnolia Tribune | Vice President Vance touts ‘Mississippi Miracle,' calls the education reform “pretty incredible” (https://magnoliatribune.com/2025/04/08/vice-president-vance-touts-mississippi-miracle-calls-the-education-reform-pretty-incredible/) Brief excerpt from the article: “This is pretty incredible,” Vice President Vance wrote on X. “Smart education reform drastically improved Mississippi's schools.” The reforms began in 2012 under then-Governor Phil Bryant (R), Lt. Governor Tate Reeves (R) and Speaker Philip Gunn (R). As previously noted by Laurie Todd-Smith in a 2023 Magnolia Tribune column on the making of the “Mississippi Miracle,” only 33 percent of third graders and 32 percent of 8th graders were reading proficiently on state tests that year. She led the governor's education policy team and is now the Assistant Secretary for Early Childhood Education at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Bryant presented lawmakers with an education vision titled “Framing Mississippi's Future” and in 2013, reforms such as the Literacy Based Promotion Act (3rd Grade Reading Gate), the Pre-K Collaborative, the Mississippi Charter School Act, Dyslexia Education Scholarships, and more were passed and signed into law. Mississippi unites with Israel at Jerusalem Leaders Summit (https://www.jns.org/mississippi-unites-with-israel-at-jerusalem-leaders-summit/) Jerusalem | Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant bounded on stage and, in his obvious Southern drawl, greeted the guests of the Jerusalem Leaders Summit, which took place last month at the Inbal hotel. Bryant was presented with the Distinguished Leadership Award for his efforts to strengthen the Israel-U.S. strategic partnership. He is a strong Israel advocate and his emotions were on full display when he addressed the crowd. “We have so many friends around the world,” he said, “but none as close, and none that I love more than Israel. I am called to be here. Perhaps sometimes we cannot explain exactly why, but that call, that voice, is stronger than any other that we hear, to come to Israel, to Jerusalem, to do what I can to strengthen this relationship.” The Third Jerusalem Leaders Summit held from Nov. 18-20, proved a unique event featuring leading voices who articulated principled solutions in addressing the 21st-century's economic concerns, global threats and security challenges. The parent organization—the International Leaders Summit, co-founded by Joel Anand Samy and Natasha Srdoc—brought together leaders from America, Britain, continental Europe, India and Israel to its inaugural Jerusalem Leaders Summit event in 2015, affirming the rule of law of civilization, based on shared principles and values. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://summitleadersusa.com/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @PhilBryantMS @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

Damon West, M.S. Criminal Justice, is a college professor, internationally known keynote speaker, 3 x Wall Street Journal bestselling author and former crime boss in Dallas, who was sentenced to Life in prison for Organized Crime. USA Today calls him the “modern day Shawshank Redemption and the most in-demand speaker in America.” At 20 years old, he was a Division 1 starting quarterback at the University of North Texas, when he suffered a career ending injury and turned to hardcore drugs to cope with disappointments of life. After graduation, he worked in the United States Congress and trained to be a stockbroker for United Bank of Switzerland (UBS). One day at UBS, he was introduced to methamphetamines; he became instantly hooked—and the lives of so many innocent people would forever be changed by the choices he made in order to feed his insatiable meth habit. After a fateful discussion during his incarceration with a seasoned convict, Damon had a spiritual awakening. He learned that, like a coffee bean changing with the application of heat and pressure, he was capable of changing the environment around him. Armed with a program of recovery, a renewed faith, and a miraculous second chance at life, Damon emerged from over seven years of prison a changed man. On parole in Texas until 2073, his story is one of hope, redemption, grit and the resilience of the Human spirit. Today on the show we discuss: why USA Today has compared Damon's story to "The Shawshank Redemption," how he transformed his mindset inside a maximum security prison, how to escape mental prisons and learn from adversity, daily spiritual and mental practices that changed his life, Damon's powerful story of forgiveness from one of his victims, what he's doing to give back and much more. ⚠ WELLNESS DISCLAIMER ⚠ Please be advised; the topics related to health and mental health in my content are for informational, discussion, and entertainment purposes only.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins interviews Chris Franzblau, author of The Last Mob Lawyer. Franzblau represented Meyer Lansky in his deportation hearing, he represented Genovese labor racketeers like Anthony “Tony Pro” Provenzano and Jerry Catena. He knew Jimmy Hoffa very well. Chris shares his remarkable career as a defense attorney for prominent figures in organized crime, offering a firsthand look at the legal battles that have shaped mob history in his book, The Last Mob Lawyer: True Stories from the Man Who Defended Some of the Biggest Names in Organized Crime. The conversation begins with Franzblau's background—his education at Duke University Law School, service in the Navy's Judge Advocate General's Corps, and training in cryptography. He then details his transition from prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney's Office to private practice, coinciding with the federal government's intensified pursuit of La Cosa Nostra under Attorney General Robert Kennedy. A twist of fate led him to represent high-profile mobsters when established defense attorneys left the scene, catapulting him into the world of organized crime defense. Franzblau shares captivating stories of his legal work with infamous figures like labor leader Jerry Catena and Anthony “Tony Pro” Provenzano. He sheds light on mob influence in unions and high-stakes power struggles, including the bitter feud between Anthony “Tony Pro” Provenzano and Jimmy Hoffa. He also discusses the FBI's controversial surveillance tactics, J. Edgar Hoover's wiretapping strategies, and how landmark legal battles helped expose the government's overreach in investigating organized crime. Adding to the intrigue, Franzblau touches on the mob's connections to Hollywood and celebrities, including Frank Sinatra's complex ties to the underworld. He also offers a compelling story surrounding Jimmy Hoffa's disappearance, hinting at new information that could reshape the narrative. Throughout the episode, Franzblau offers insight into the ethical dilemmas of defending mobsters, debunking the myths that attorneys are complicit in their clients' activities. He also weighs in on the handling of Teamsters' pension funds, contrasting transparency in his experience with the corruption seen in other cities. This episode is a must-listen for true crime enthusiasts, mafia history buffs, and legal minds alike.

​The CIA is currently evaluating its legal authority to conduct drone strikes against Mexican drug cartels, following the Trump administration's designation of several cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs). This designation potentially expands the CIA's counterterrorism tools, allowing for covert operations similar to those used against groups like al-Qaeda and ISIS. While no drone strikes have been ordered yet, the CIA has been conducting surveillance flights over Mexico with the country's approval, gathering intelligence on cartel operations. The administration is exploring the use of Title 50 to authorize covert CIA missions, which would bypass the need for military engagement under Title 10.However, this potential shift in U.S. strategy has raised concerns in Mexico. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has firmly stated that Mexico would reject any unilateral military action by the United States on its soil, emphasizing that such measures would not solve the issue of drug trafficking and would violate Mexico's sovereignty. Additionally, a top Pentagon official clarified that the U.S. military lacks the authority to carry out drone strikes against drug cartels in Mexico, despite the FTO designation. The official noted that while the designation supports a broader governmental strategy against drug trafficking, it does not legally grant the military strike capabilities.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:CIA is reviewing its authorities to use lethal force against drug cartels | CNN PoliticsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

By popular demand, former ATF agent Jay Dobyns returns to take us deeper into the logistics of infiltrating the Hells Angels and living to tell the tale! [Pt. 3 of 3 — find 1 here and 2 here!]Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1137What We Discuss with Jay Dobyns:ATF agent Jay Dobyns first infiltrated the Solo Angels gang in Tijuana simply to gain credibility with the Hells Angels in Arizona — an infiltration within an infiltration to establish presence in a culture notorious for extreme scrutiny.The psychological toll of living a double life while undercover was severe. Taking handfuls of Hydroxycut to keep pace, Jay would cry himself to sleep from exhaustion and once signed a check with his undercover name, showing how blurred the lines became.At the Mesa clubhouse, when his hand moved toward his concealed weapon, a Hells Angel asked, "Jaybird, let me ask you something. Can you outdraw my trigger squeeze?" — one of many moments where Jay's survival hung by a thread, with only his wits as a safety net.Despite evidence gathered over two years, prosecutors reduced charges and sought plea deals with criminals in the Hells Angels organization rather than pursuing full prosecution — a profoundly frustrating outcome for Jay after years of risking his life to put these predators behind bars for good.Despite having his home burned down and contract killers sent after him, Jay made a life-changing decision: "I live with concern. I choose not to live in fear because if I live in fear, they own me." This powerful mindset shows that even after facing extreme adversity, we all have the ability to reclaim our power by refusing to let fear dictate our choices.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

The Hells Angels in Australia have been actively collaborating with the Kinahan cartel to smuggle significant quantities of cocaine into the country.

The cooperation between the United States and Mexico in the war on drugs has been a complex and evolving partnership with both successes and challenges. Here is a summary of key points in this cooperation:Historical Context: The U.S. and Mexico have a long history of cooperation in addressing drug-related issues, dating back to the 1970s. The proximity of Mexico to the United States, a major consumer market for illegal drugs, has made this collaboration essential.Merida Initiative: In 2008, the United States launched the Merida Initiative, a multi-year aid program to support Mexico in its efforts to combat drug trafficking and organized crime. This initiative provided equipment, training, and technical assistance to Mexican law enforcement and security forces.Joint Operations: The two countries have engaged in various joint law enforcement operations to target drug cartels and dismantle drug trafficking networks. These operations have led to the capture of several high-profile drug traffickers.Information Sharing: Both nations have improved information sharing and intelligence cooperation to better understand and combat drug trafficking organizations. This includes sharing data on drug shipments, money laundering, and cartel activities.Legal Extradition: The U.S. and Mexico have an extradition treaty in place, allowing the transfer of criminals wanted in one country to face justice in the other. This has been used to extradite major drug lords and cartel leaders.Challenges and Tensions: Despite cooperation, there have been tensions in the relationship. Issues such as corruption within Mexican law enforcement, human rights abuses, and disputes over drug policy have strained cooperation at times.Shift in Focus: In recent years, there has been a shift in strategy, with a greater emphasis on addressing the root causes of drug trafficking and violence, such as poverty, lack of economic opportunities, and social inequality. Both countries have invested in development programs in Mexico's drug-producing regions.Legalization and Drug Policy: Differences in drug policies between the two nations have been a source of tension. While some U.S. states have legalized recreational and medical marijuana, Mexico has also been moving toward more liberal drug policies, including decriminalization.Ongoing Efforts: Cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico in the war on drugs remains ongoing. Both countries continue to work together on a range of issues, including interdiction efforts, intelligence sharing, and promoting regional security.According to a new DHS paper that was released, the United States is looking to expand their footprint in Mexico even more as the battle against fentanyl ramps up.(commercial at 6:57)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:The United States seeks to ‘aggressively' expand its anti-fentanyl operations in Mexico | U.S. | EL PAÍS English (elpais.com)

Ecuador has long been a transit corridor for narco traffickers.

In this episode, we take a look.(commercial at 8:49)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/ecuador-terrorized-by-mexican-led-drug-trafficking-explosion/ar-AA1056cv?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=37ebe9976dec44b09de93e44c40a536c

The term "Los Chapitos" refers to the descendants of Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán, one of the most notorious drug lords in Mexico's history. El Chapo was the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, one of the most powerful and influential drug trafficking organizations globally. Here's a detailed summary of Los Chapitos and their roles in the world of organized crime:Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar: Iván is one of El Chapo's sons and has been deeply involved in the Sinaloa Cartel's operations. He is considered one of the key figures within the cartel. Iván has faced allegations of participating in various criminal activities, including drug trafficking, money laundering, and violence. He operates discreetly and maintains a relatively low public profile.Jesús Alfredo Guzmán Salazar: Jesús Alfredo is another son of El Chapo and has been linked to the Sinaloa Cartel. His involvement in the cartel's activities has made him a subject of interest for law enforcement agencies. In 2016, Jesús Alfredo was kidnapped by a rival cartel, but he was eventually released, showcasing the high-stakes conflicts between rival criminal organizations in Mexico.Ovidio Guzmán López: Ovidio, also a son of El Chapo, has played a significant role in the Sinaloa Cartel. His capture by Mexican authorities in October 2019 led to a dramatic and violent confrontation between the cartel and government forces in the city of Culiacán, Sinaloa. The Mexican government ultimately released Ovidio to avoid further bloodshed, highlighting the cartel's ability to challenge the state's authority.Joaquín "El Chapito" Guzmán López: Joaquín, known as "El Chapito," is another son of El Chapo. He was arrested by Mexican authorities in June 2020 and faces drug trafficking charges. His arrest marked another blow to the Guzmán family's influence within the cartel.Los Chapitos have inherited the criminal legacy of their father, and their involvement in various aspects of the drug trade has continued to shape the dynamics of organized crime in Mexico:Drug Trafficking: Members of Los Chapitos have been heavily involved in the trafficking of illegal drugs, primarily cocaine, marijuana, and methamphetamine, from Mexico into the United States and other international markets.Territorial Control: The influence of Los Chapitos extends to the control of drug trafficking routes and territories. They have engaged in violent conflicts with rival cartels, particularly the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), over territorial disputes.Money Laundering: Los Chapitos are also believed to be involved in money laundering activities, facilitating the cartel's financial operations and ensuring the flow of illicit funds.Violence: Their involvement in criminal activities has contributed to the escalation of violence in Mexico, leading to ongoing conflicts with rival cartels and law enforcement agencies.In the wake of the arrest of Ovidio Guzman, the United States is now calling for the arrest and extradition of the remaining sons of El Chapo.(commercial at 7:25)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:El Chapo's three sons - who remain in control of the Sinaloa Cartel - face extradition calls from the U.S. after Mexico handed over their brother | Daily Mail Online

In a disturbing incident at the Clark County Jail in Indiana, former corrections officer David Lowe sold keys to the female section of the jail to male inmates for $1,000 each on October 23, 2021. This led to a "night of terror" where male inmates gained access to the women's cells and reportedly assaulted multiple female inmates.Lowe has been arrested and faces charges of aiding escape, official misconduct, and trafficking with an inmate. He was immediately fired after the incident. The women involved have filed a federal lawsuit against Lowe, Clark County Sheriff Jamey Noel, and other jail officers, citing systemic failures in security and staffing as contributing factors to the attack.The lawsuit alleges that no jail officers intervened during the attack and that subsequent punitive measures were taken against the women, such as revoking their "dark privileges," placing them on lockdown, and confiscating personal items. The keys used in the attack were never recovered, and the cell locks were not changed, leaving the women in fear for their safety.(Clark county has settled with 25 of the women who brought claims against the county for a total of $328,000.  )(commercial at 8:06)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/female-inmates-raped-after-jailer-sells-key-to-cell-for-1k-lawsuit-claims/ar-AA101RqI?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=c4ce6843eb2f41da9da907f2436826be

He was extradited from Mexico for his role in moving "tons" of drugs into the country and for his role within the Sinaloa cartel. Now, after having his sentence reduced, he's looking to build on his relationship with the federal government and parlay that into a golden ticket to the witness protection program. Meanwhile, his father and his faction of the Sinaloa cartel continues to wage a bloody internal war against the Los Chapitos and an external war against the CJNG.(commercial at 9:54)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.vice.com/en/article/88qgpk/sinaloa-cartel-leader-el-mayos-son-wants-a-deal-to-stay-in-the-us

As the violence in Mexico continues to spin out of control, we are seeing more and more stories of locals banding together to fight back against the cartels and their violence. In this episode, members of a local community take justice into their own hands and publicly execute a man they say was responsible for a hit.(commercial at 8:16)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/world-news/vigilantes-lynch-drug-cartel-assassin-28640035

The men or women who sit at the head of criminal organizations function much in the same way that a CEO would for a big business and most of these men or women who are running cartels would have just as much success running a legit business as they do an illicit one. In this episode, we dive in and see how things shake out.

Every day we see a new example of the extreme violence that has a strangle hold on Mexico. Whether it's cartel members killing rival cartel members or the cartel turning their ire to the civilians or politicians, one thing is for sure...the cartel violence in Mexico is out of control and we see that once again as another Mexican Mayor is killed.(commercial at 11:34)To contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cesar-valencia-aguililla-mayor-killed-mexico-drug-war/

The Kinahan cartel continues to fracture from within if reports are to be believed. With the distrust even reaching the upper echelons of the syndicate, it would seem that trust is at a premium. Now, to make matters worse there are reports that a mole for the authorities is working from the inside to topple the once all-powerful drug clan.(commercial at 8:07)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.sundayworld.com/crime/irish-crime/christy-kinahan-snr-orders-sean-mcgovern-probe-as-mole-suspicions-run-high-41700697.html

Hi friends, happy Wednesday! The other day I was invited to a bachelorette party. And it wasn't one of those simple, one day parties. NO. This was going to be an all-out, wild, expensive bachelorette weekend in… the city of Las Vegas. And I knew exactly what was going to happen. The shots. Thunder from Down Under. $300 dinners. No sleep. And I'm like… why is everyone obsessed with going to this random, expensive city in the middle of the desert?  Don't get me wrong… I love Vegas. But it's kind of surprising that it's still around. I mean, if you think about it, Vegas has almost been canceled over and over and over again.  I mean there was the mob, the recession, covid, inflation… but Vegas *always* seems to find a way to survive. And I had to get to the bottom of why. So join me on this journey as we discuss The Dark History of… Las Vegas.   I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.

In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, is joined by Alvin Williams and Francel Evans of the Affirmative Murder Podcast to revisit Sharon Miller’s cold case. Together, they discuss the eerie details of Sharon’s final hours, including a chilling phone call, a mysterious group of men, and a crime so calculated it suggests ties to organized crime or underground activities. The trio also piece together potential motives, overlooked evidence, and theories that could finally bring justice to Sharon’s son, Charles, who has spent decades searching for answers. On April 28, 1982, Sharon Miller's badly decomposed body was found covered under debris in a secluded area off of Powder Mill Road in Woodlawn, Baltimore County on Januafry 14,1983. Detectives noted that Miller's hands and feet were missing from her body. Baltimore County Police are urging anyone with details or rumors about the case to come forward. Report tips anonymously through Metro Crime Stoppers or the Baltimore County Police Department’s platforms, including by calling 410-887-3943 or submitting a tip online.
