Күн бұрынAdi Jaffe was a crystal meth dealer in Los Angeles, purchasing his supply from local meth labs and making his way up to dealing with Mexican cartels. After leaving prison, Jaffe attained his doctorate degree in psychology. He now lectures at the University of California, Los Angeles, and runs a practice called IGNTD, which takes a unique approach to addiction recovery.
David McMillan is a British Australian former drug smuggler. He trafficked heroin through Southeast and Central Asia. He was arrested numerous times between the '80s and 2012, and he estimates he trafficked over $17 million worth of heroin internationally. He is now an author and speaker on drug-policy reform.
Pieter Tritton, a former cocaine smuggler, speaks with Business Insider about trafficking cocaine from Ecuador to Europe through a cartel connection. Tritton was arrested in Ecuador and sentenced to 12 years in one of the world's most violent and corrupt prisons.
Shaun Attwood is a former drug smuggler who ran a successful ring trafficking MDMA pills in the US in the '90s. He was arrested in 2002 and served six years in US jails. Attwood published his life story as the "English Shaun Trilogy" and talks to audiences around the UK and Europe about prison reform.
Neil Woods spent 14 years as an undercover police officer infiltrating some of the most dangerous organized-crime groups in the UK. He speaks with BI about his experience with drug-dealing gangs and how the drug market works. Woods is now a board member of the Law Enforcement Action Partnership, an American nonprofit.

@rouuAs a Brit, I can say there are quite a lot of people like this guy who are on the gear, Heroin isn't known as the gentleman's drug of choice for no reason. I thought the same thing to begin with, especially when he stated he would stay within the farming communities until they began to trust him, but he also said he was only usually there for a day or two ? That must be either a trusting bunch of opium farmers, or he has the ability to charm the birds down from the trees, hahaha. Although I believe he could be telling the truth, it sounds like he's done some hard core jail, and he's definitely had a lifelong addiction to the gear. Wonder if he ever met old chop chop while doing his ten in Pentridge ? Edit, I've just read up about him, he's legit.

@@fredzep01 A few days to 1 week ... given they're simple farmers often with families I guess, but not living in wealthy conditions with separate guest rooms, this made perfect sense to me. He'd stayed as long as he felt he wasn't disturbing their daily lives, then moved on to the next farmer in the same or next village, pretty much like "couch hopping", (or hammock hopping if you will), meaning he's still in and around the area for months ... the farmers are all pretty much neighbours or at least know each other to a certain degree depending on distance between their farms; if they wanted they could all come together without him and make up their minds about him. He eats, drinks, harvests, smokes, lives with them and if he can he helps them to drill a well or something ... imo he made himself very open and vulnerable by living with them for so long. Heck if I weren't nearly his age, I'd love to make that trip myself and learn about their methods from scratch. Edit: Who's "old chop chop", please?

That will always be the case. Some things can be kept off the streets to some degree, others are simply too popular. If a certain percentage of a population don't want to abide by prohibition, there is virtually nothing that can be done. No-matter how many is put in prison, there will always be someone willing to take over. Prohibition is doomed to fail. It just creates revenue streams for organized crime. The harder it is pushed, the more brutal the type of gangster that will step up. But there will always be someone.

it's fascinating to me that all of the former dealers said that to actually help addicts and stop people getting into drugs what needs to happen is legalizing drugs and doing harm reduction rather than harsher prison sentences and more severe punishments. plus the description of the business side of things and how police activity affects the market and work... it really shows how the war on drugs gave the drug industry so much power.

Of course the dealers want to legalize drugs. In reality they're lying or forgetting why they were criminalized in the first place. In an ideal world everything would be legalized but some people can't handle themselves and legalization has always been shown to greatly increase usage. Eventually people will whine and moan there would be such an an uproar drugs would have to be restricted again and we'd be back to square one. As for 'winning' the drug war thats such a non sequitur. Nobody/few people on the other side claims they will win the war on drugs. Its an ongoing process. Its like saying oh we'll never win the war against murder. Might as well legalize it.

Addict here too friend. Oxy got me a good 13 years ago. the 80's up the schnoz made me feel literally like Jesus. I couldn't believe that there was something that made me happier than coke - but high octane Oxy was it. I've been on methadone now for nearly 13 or 14 years....at 49 I figure it'll be with me forever. Methadone felt AMAZING at first!!! Then it just became like all other opiates - just use it to maintain being well. I also take Temazepam (up the schnoz too) and I love it! A Temazepam coupled with a 109 mg dose of methadone turns a mundane day into a lovely one.

What the world can't seem to wrap their head around is that some people require drugs for their entire lives, and full grown adults don't need to be told what drugs they require nor what their doses need to be, especially full grown adults who have been doing drugs their entire lives. Some of us are just never going to stop and you can't make us and you shouldn't try. Not all of us are drug addicts either, some of us have genetic conditions that make it so we are dependent on drugs and dependency is different than addiction.

The first guy is absolutely bang on about addiction. The idea of abstinence is absurd. You do NOT have to be ready to quit forever to start moving forward and getting to a place where you do want to quit. When you're in active addiction, thats your life. When you quit, you try to abstain forever, you sit facing your empty life with the weight on your shoulders and then the relapse comes, with shame and self hatred by the bucket load. We need to be encouraging and showing people how they can start building lives first, before they even think about the quitting process. We need to be giving people lives that they *want* to live, not throwing them sober and sore back into the life they run from.

Yes and no….I don’t think you can ever say poverty is an excuse for crime, especially when it is “first world poverty” where the poor are more likely to be overweight and they have a room, a bath, just not in a nicer neighborhood etc….compared to third world poverty, where people starve or live in trash or mud shanties with no indoor plumbing, etc. And at least on the US or other first-world democracies, you can almost live for free. FB marketplace is packed with nice items, and many buy something, set the box aside so it stays nice, use the item, then pass it along for free when done….I do this every week. Thrift stores and garages sales are packed with great clothes (have to search thru a lot, but they are there) for pennies on the dollars, and many live in vans with a gym member for a year, then an apartment a year, to save up money….it’s not bad in your 20-30s. And ways to save on food, etc. without going to extremes. And colleges and med schools have scholarships just waiting for good kids from a poor background.

I was a heroin user from about 2011 to 2014, before fentanyl. The war on drugs has failed miserably. Failed our tax payers, our court systems, and our addicts. Harm reduction like needle exchanges are so important, and should be the new focus. Needle exchanges are not only reducing the spread of disease but act as a first contact for addicts offering information and access to treatment. All the addicts I know that are 10 plus years older than me have had or have hep c. The model for treatment should be as harm reduction also. Vancouver Canada is a great example of treatment that is harm reduction based and working better than our American system with more MAT treatment options. If abstinence, vivatrol, Suboxone and methadone aren't working why not offer other opiates as treatment? Anything is better than fentanyl.

Fast money, also known as easy money, disappears as quickly as it comes, but now I value hard-earned money and strive to hold onto it. It's been two years since I've been clean, and my drug of choice was opiates. I'm grateful that phase of my life is behind me, although every day is still a struggle.

Peace and health to everyone still suffering ❤

Please use 0.22ug micron wheel filters and look up volumetric dosing on psychonaut wiki. It will literally keep you alive. I'm 5+ years "sober" now, but the goal should be to minimize physical harm and reduce the chance of overdose to nearly 0.

He didn't make it and if it wasn't him smuggling it'll be someone else and there are loads. They don't force it in the people who take it. I'm struggling but from prescription, it's just as bad.

@@kayleighkyme4666 +1, except I dropped the stigma completely. No need to worry as life is too short, I have chronic pain, I have oxy, yeah I take it, have been for well over 5 years. Can't really stop as I've had 6 surgeries and have tried every "alternative" under the sun, they just decided to keep me on oxy, wasn't lack of trying from my side, but sometimes, you move on, no matter what.

This is amazing, it reminds of a Vice piece. Well done! I lost my best friend to hard drugs a couple years ago, I never got into that world me and him would just smoke weed and he'd come over messed up on H or whatever he felt like doing at that period of time decades ago. Really miss playing games with him and it sucks that he died so someone with a fat wad of cash could have a fatter wad of cash and it's devastated his family. It's a sad story that many other Americans have been through which is a huge concern. No stigma against anyone struggling with any of this stuff, just try to be safe and quit if you can cause I'm sure there are people who care about you.

Don't forget the Needle and the spoon by Lynard Skynard 😂😢 "Don't mess with the needle or a spoon Or any trip to the moon It'll take you away" Or literally Heroine by Velvet Underground - Heroin, be the death of me "Heroin, it's my wife and it's my life Because a mainline to my vein Leads to a center in my head And then I'm better off than dead" Not sure what the different kinds of it are but there are a lot of songs about it 😅

Nobody ever said "Prohibition in the 20's was successful." Rather, Prohibition was the cause of the greatest crime wave in history. Annual deaths from all illegal drug overdose in US is a little over 100,000 on average. Annual deaths from cigarettes are about 500,000 on average. The War on Drugs keeps prices higher in illicit drug markets. The War on Drugs employs millions of law enforcement, lawyers, judges, counselors, etc. The War on Drugs causes drug related violence driven by territorial control for profits. We will NEVER NEVER NEVER make drugs legal. THERE'S TOO MUCH MONEY IN IT.

@@user-kc6iq3jd2ia founding physician of Johns Hopkins was a morphine/opiate addict -William Stewart Halsted. He basically said IF YOU HAVE the means, you can be on opioids for life. And it’s true. If you never have to worry about running out, police, and take care of your health. You can. But that’s not really realistic 😂
