sun right here [Music] so how many guys are involved in this uh drug trade organization i'm not too sure i've only dealt with it i've only dealt with like three or four people so i dealt with a guy named sergio that was it but i'll let you pay for that that's not mine was it already paid for i believe like i said i don't know those details i'm just the guy that takes it for him so what they what did they tell you they just told me to take it to dc well not they said dc but like hagerstown so from the ver from the very beginning what they tell you how did the instructions go at the beginning i thought i was you know i'm saying karen what should i call it they told me it was like some restaurant supplies that first started you know after a while i kind of picked up what's going on and it kind of just taught me what it is they'll get it from their growers in california i meet them up somewhere like at a hotel or a warehouse or something like that and i just come pick it up and take it where it needs to go unzip the bench nah i pretty much know i know what's in there yeah so uh when uh where'd you pick it up at from a warehouse or from uh no i picked it up from a hotel hotel yeah like a like a hotel six over there in ontario did you drop the did you drop the van off and they they picked it up or they brought they they ran it out there is it all the way across no this is a half kill is he going to buy me no you're good so you so you went to a hotel yeah you went to a hotel and then did you meet the guys or they did they uh they already had it on them they went to their growers i never met the initial grower so you drove this van from yeah washington to kelly no from cali i'm heading towards washington so did you fly into kelly yeah i did you flew into kelly on sunday yeah so they already have the van ready to go for you yeah they do all the logistics parts and i just pick them up pick it up take whatever and take it to work okay yeah okay also let me get a good phone number for you going forward quote before i have sb out with me that's a good number for you yeah that's myself okay i don't know how much you think all that's worth 100k 100k it's a lot of money you have 100k i don't know how much yeah is this your first trip or how many times have you made this trip like four times two times it's my first time actually knowing like what's going on how much did you get paid your last two trips uh just like six thousand so i'm really not really worth it as you can tell is it all weed or is there yeah it's just all right coke and chicken no i saw a weed for sure my suggestion to you is not to smuggle marijuana anymore because you're not very good at it i'm not i'm hsi deal with him what the feds do with him you know what that amount is in pitch right 10 to 20 years no i don't need that i'm a good kid i'm just trying to make a little money on the side not a drug deal can you do 10 to 20 years no sir how old are you i'm only 25. you have kids no i did not i'm home i guess you can have kids when you're 35 oh i might have a little sperm calling by then you know when you're in jail you're going to jack off a lot well or you're going to pack some fudge none of that i'm not i'm i don't know before uh yeah one time before uh what you got a pi in texas went to pi public intoxication no felonies well i would look into getting a different type of job yeah i'm actually a cdl truck driver what the hell man you may get money driving trucks i know bro that's why i feel so stupid right now you guys just made me realize how stupid i am while you said it i get it well i mean it because i say i mean so how are your bosses are they pretty linked up in some bad [ __ ] or is it just i don't know that deep honestly to be honest i don't know if it's that deep i'm gonna go with marijuana you have your boss's phone number uh yeah let me get that from you is he a mexican guy take a picture of that i'm gonna take it with me i'm gonna um scan it and i'll email him a copy yeah email him i gotta say this game with copy now i'm just making me a copy when i get to the office you're mexican or another this guy just the guy he lives out in washington uh i think he lives in uh i think he lives in washington new york one of those so when he got to uh washington were you where are you supposed to drop it i dropped it off in hagerstown at a hotel at a warehouse i put a little comfort in over there in hagerstown okay and then somebody else picks up the truck and then they just go about their business and they come back like i don't see anything like as far as like when you get paid as soon as i get to a hotel is the suspect's information was documented and he was released on the side of the road pending a federal prosecution review these are keys yeah the street value of the marijuana was valued just over 1 million dollars all right man well good luck with your boss the agents will be in contact with you you might be having the marshals kicking on your door to take you to prison so i'm serious man it's a lot of weed oh it's like that man i told you i can't arrest you right now but the agents will uh get all the documentations together and they might be kicking in your door with a warrant so just keep an eye on the mail for paperwork
