    I live in saskatchewan and remember that drug bust. It was massive! the police all coordinated and raided over a dozen different hells angels clubhouses and such across the whole province all within a few hours on one day. I never ended up hearing how they were able to do it but this makes a lot of sense. Thanks for including it!

    Simon I have a great idea! It was recently found out that the infamous The Program was back with a brand new name on Rikers Island. This is where guards select the biggest and worse cons to keep the peace they're allowed to do anything they want to anybody and can even disrespect a guard. So how about something about the top 10 scandals of Riker's Island?

    My childhood family was in the program. His father was murdered with in the program in Miami. He was visiting my friend at variety children’s hospital and went in through the emergency entrance. When they came he along with two Marshall’s and two drs went killed.
    After that the family was taken out of the program and then we found out.

    One of my favorite stories is about when I worked in a prison . It was the end of the road prison. It housed inmates that were too dangerous to be housed in the prison that had death row. These inmates were Apex predators. The worst mass murderers serial killers gang leaders ECT. The inmates and staff called it gladiator school.
    Anyway one day I was on my way from the office and like the start of the tv show GET SMART I had to pass through a series of locked doors that open into the courtyard where I would walk to the unit where my office was and pass through more doors. As I stepped into the courtyard the chain bus had delivered 30 new inmates at the moment I stepped into the courtyard they were passing heading towards inmate orientation. A inmate seen me step into the courtyard . He began SHRIEKING like a girl and running.
    Ok if you are ever in a closed custody prison NEVER RUN UNLESS YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
    THE RUNNING SHRIEKING INMATE DREW THE ATTENTION OF SEVERAL OFFICERS .
    He was immediately (STUFFED AND CUFFED ) That means tackled and shackled stripped naked on the spot and taken to. Administrative degradation AKA the hole. Shortly after getting to my office the captain in charge of the hole called me and was laughing . He told me why the inmate ran. The inmate stated he thought I was SAMMY THE BULL sent to kill him.

    Simon I had to stop watching your videos for quite a long time because it seems like I become possessed with the desire to watch every single video. There was a time a few years ago when I had watched every video on here and I felt like Alexander the Great crying because there were no more videos to watch. I absolutely love your videos I spent my entire life learning things and yours are the best for doing that! Thank you so much!

    My blue Heaven was filmed here in Paso Robles California & Atascadero California.
    I watched them film it here.
    The "Safe House" they took Steve Martin to was literally just around the corner from my best friends house.
    Google map Crazy Horse rd. Paso Robles to see the area.
    The "Police Station" is actually the city hall in Atascadero California. Yeah I love that movie, it's hilarious.

    My mother used to (in 1999 or 2000) give the orientation and initial paperwork for census workers. She gave the warning these are federal papers u r signing if u lie, u can to jail. A guy pulled my mom to the side and while he didn’t say it outright, my mom whispered if he was wit sec. He asked if he could borrow a phone (it was 99 or 2000, so not everyone has a cell yet), my mom overheard him talking to his handler. He kept with the first name (I’m guessing the fake one) he gave.

    I am not a fan legal death sentence because there are way too many "Oopsies" popping up thanks to DNA. However, those who claim that death sentences don't discourage criminal behavior are wrong, and there is a two word proof: witness protection. I simply ask them if they would let their sixteen year old child testify against a Mexican drug cartel, and then go home, the answer is a flat "NO". The Mexican drug cartel, meanwhile, has no problem demonstrating that the death penalty works.
