Drug Lords - Duc and Van Dang | Full Documentary | True Crime

[@18000rpm]

No wonder Australia has a massive drug problem. Two years' jail for massive commercial production of cocaine worth millions. For a lot of people that's an entirely reasonable risk to take. Work your whole life for minimum wage, or take the risk - if you win, you become a millionaire and set for life. If you lose, two years.

[@maryannematthews7176]

18000rpm A risk worth taking! If the other option is working your whole life for minimum wage..

[@SOLDOZER]

The two girls on the cruise ship who had 210 pounds of cocaine only got 4 years. LOL. Looks like I need to move to Australia.

[@mikemanuka]

18000rpm Yeah man, I been thinking the same, most of the episodes I’ve watched the person only gets a few years for large scale production of drugs, worth millions of dollars! And the sentence they get can be reduced by good behaviour etc etc, prolly out before they even serve the full amount of time. Not to mention Aussie prisons are a walk in the park compared to US. Fuck man, worth the risk aye, get in make some coin and get out.

[@smokey7930]

Oh yeah, plenty of studies show that massive prison sentences solve drug problems. Look at America basically drug free

[@mikemanuka]

@@smokey7930 thats a good point! But America is very different to Oz. Its a lot easier to live here in Aus. But still you make an interesting point.

[@69bobr]

So WHO tipped them off?!! They need to figure that out first. WTF?!! 2 years jail for coke, and 50 years for pot! Moral of the story: Do coke.

[@nickoborn]

Pretty sure if what the chemical supply company who tipped them off

[@Alex632]

it was 50 years collectively spread out for 20 people.

[@z.czieyaad9999]

The Ringleader of the pot crop faced 25yrs before he died though. If Australia win the Cricket World Cup who I'm rooting 4 since S.A is knocked out I'm throwing a cocaine party lol anybody dare enter with weed will b deported 2 Australia.

Glad I live in Oregon where the cops know and now have been told, marijuana is legal, harmless as a beer after work. Sad that people are locked up because of a plant no more harmful than a beer. Never should have been illegal.

Always a tip off,seems Aussie is packed with snitches.

[@Retroscoop]

Not an Aussie monopoly.... Policemen all over the world are not exactly known for their phenomenally high wages, so temptation and blackmailing or pure threats are very common, the stakes are so high it can be quite a ROI to have snitches at the right place.

Most of these operstions where cops planted cameras inside the druglords home, if only the druglords themselves had a hidden camera inside and outside the house woukd have alerted that the cops are onto him.

Good Work

[@boogiemonstermom677]

I wonder why they're blurring out the Dutch man's face? Someone may have recognized it, and gave them a tip off.

[@grahamjames8144]

Surely the search warrant cannot be ‘exected’ without the property owners present. Planting cameras and microphones seems illegal.

[@yyxy.oncesaid]

It's not illegal and I throught everyone knew that

It's not a little ironic that Gary Sweet presents this show, given the fun times he had during his younger years.

[@MEN101]

Those brave police, cannabis is so deadly and so much of it there, must of been frightening. My thoughts and prayers are with them.

[@willatwood]

Then the government made a ton of money by exporting it the U.S.A. Selling it to the markets in the states that it is legalized in. Smart play! It's only illegal because they know they will have no control over taxation of marijuana being grown and will "lose" out on all that money.

[@cal4207]

How the fuck is cannabis deadly can you articulate a little further on that it is a seed bearing God-given plant read the Bible asshole

Don't go toking in Aus, stick 2 coking or your ass will b detained for weed psychosis.

[@lhasaroadrat9374]

Australia's pot laws are archaic to say the least. But the hidden cameras really make the show unique. It's the "Candid Camera" of crime shows. ps- just legalize pot and make millions in taxes. Woodstock was almost 50 years ago- come out of the stone age!!!

[@AhNee]

No, it's not a fallacy. Legal pot, sold in stores, government collects taxes on it. MORE for them! Colorado is doing it right. Washington State is doing it wrong and fucked up, as they do everything else!

2 years? Lol 😆 Way to go Australia, way to teach those "drug lords" a lesson.

[@rawnukles]

it is weird how the media sends such mixed messages about drugs. "Drug Lords" lol . It is a coincidence that the media is run by people with politically left sympathies and it is in the Left's interest to promote drug use as drug users have strong motives to vote for the Left. The Right is tough on crime and drugs and the left has progressive drug policies. Triple J government youth radio just plays so much music promoting drug culture it certainly looks like they know what they are doing.

[@z.czieyaad9999]

Right vs Left? Any1 of the 2sides & the middle can agree 2yrs for cocaine manufacturing vs facing 25yrs for pot is all fucked up & that's probably what killed the man. He technically got sentenced 2death while young buck Duc is plotting on running his cocaine empire on his 2yr vacation lol.

[@antoinettebush1574]

If you were caught in the US wouldn't be getting 2yrs. Y'all would be probably 20yrs or more. Be lucky you got 2yrs. Try too do honest work. It's best for you.
