How I Trafficked $5 Million Worth Of Cocaine | Posh Pete's Uncut Story | How Crime Works

Former cocaine smuggler Pieter Tritton returns for a second interview with Business Insider about his experience trafficking drugs from South America to the United Kingdom. Tritton says he started selling cocaine in the illegal rave scene in the UK in the 2000s. He then established a cartel connection and began importing cocaine to Europe in larger quantities. Tritton was arrested in Ecuador and served 10 years in prison there, first in Garcia Moreno in Quito, and later in Litoral Penitentiary in Guayaquil, which is one of the world's most violent and corrupt prisons.
He now works as a public speaker on the dangers of drugs, consults with the UK police force, and is writing a follow-up to his 2017 memoir, "El Infierno: Drugs, Gangs, Riots and Murder: My time inside Ecuador's toughest prisons."
The NCA estimates the UK cocaine market is worth $13.8 billion (£11 billion) a year.
In the year ending March 2023, over 92 metric tons of illegal drugs were seized by police and Border Force, the highest volume since 2003/4.

[@TheBenTonks]

Yeah, America has no drug problems @@Nocebonobo

[@gclip9883]

@@Nocebonobo No. First of all, there is tons of Cocaine in the US, it is only coming in through other avenues. Second of all, the US has failed miserably in the War On Drugs. Since its inception, it has cost the US over $1Trillion. It has also led to millions of incarcerations - even for simple posession. This is very bad, because a prison sentence makes it way harder to find a job - which increases the probability that you will commit crimes again. And you might say "It is worth paying that price if it at least leads to less addiction and deaths". Well, sorry to disappoint you, but it hasn't. Deaths through overdose have continually risen for decades, and with Fentanyl hitting the market, deaths have skyrocketed. The same goes for addiction rates, which have gone up since forever. The only cases in which we could see a stabilization or even a decrease in the use (especillay in young people) is with Marijuana in the states that have legalized. Another example is Portugal, that decriminalized all drugs in 2001. Since then, addiction and overdose rates have gone down to one of the lowest levels in the EU. For reference, when Portugal made this law, they had a massive crisis with heroin addiction and HIV infections. The War On Drugs is one of the dumbest, most destructive policy proposals in history. All the scientific data we have clearrly supports the idea that legal production and a focus on mental health and prevention is the best way to approach drugs. Alcohol is one of the most dangerous drugs in existence, btw. If it was illegal, it would be considered a hard drug amongside heroin and cocaine. But by legalizing the production and sale, we have made alcohol as safe as possible. That is the right way.

I think he was writing a book (which I would buy). The problem with making an actual series or movie out of this - and surely at least one screenplay is doing the rounds - is how to avoid providing a practical tutorial on undertaking a significant criminal enterprise. I guess they did it with "Traffik" (which IIRC involved impregnation in plastic toys), so perhaps do-able.

There are some series aired on paid tv channels that shows how the federal police in my country approaches people on buses and airplanes, and then ask them about their motives for travelling. Police is already sniffing out that they're trafficking, and say 90% of the time those people that got interviewed were indeed trafficking drugs to various locations. Turns out that they're always dealing like a kilo, or even smaller quantities, and also being paid so badly, it's almost comical if it wasnt a tragedy already. Seeing this you realize how the big guys dealing drugs never show up in these shows. Of course, there's the element of intelligence, but the main discourse of public safety always takes remarks on poor, desperate people trafficking as the only way to get food on the table.
