Classic About Drug Trafficking: Building an ecstasy empire and facing 200 years in prison

This episode is bonkers. Joe and Tom meet former ecstasy trafficker Shaun Attwood to talk about his extraordinary life story. Shaun is banned from America for life, and was facing 200 years in prison for his crimes. He tells us how he created his drugs empire, about his rivalry with Sammy “the Bull” Gravano, his dealings with the Mexican Mafia and why most of his “co-defendants” are now dead.
