"We had to think outside the square" we put in cameras. Lol cops.
Amazing right
Aussie cops!
Scraping the barrel for "drug lords" in Australia it seems, this guy is on every estate in the UK
Scholar Of Babylon well a box is technically a square 😂😂
@@AbenaD88 but not every box is 1,000 sq ft.
He said "we had to think outside the square" and I lost it 😂
Funny how every one all of a sudden is drug lord here in the conversation but no one here is a millionaire yet😂🤦♂️🤦♂️
Cop @14:39 "Looks like about an elbow, sorry a pound of cannibas"
I wonder who used smoke up as kid! bahahahah
@12:42 "morally" couldn't let the drugs go bk to the coast...why the phuck is alcohol not a "moral" problem
Hugely taxable and socially accepted. But as a dry ex drinker I completely agree with you. Well said.
You see that little smile he gave after he said "that was the icing on the cake"? He seemed quite happy with his little pun didn't he? Ain't he clever 😂
The bald guy with the leather jacket on the beach?
@@casspirburns no the cop
Drug Lord??? Bhaaaaaa there like average dealers on council estates in Britain.
Arthur Neddy Smith was an Aussie legend hard as hell ,stand over guy ,huge and a 5 kg a month smack dealer when it just took root in Sydney in the early 70's ,he made money extorting and committing dozens of successful robberies and murders BLUE MURDER was about him etc.
Who cares about shit hole Britain, bloody pom

thats not a lot of drugs? just saying
All these episodes I've watched had tip offs from informants the police would been none the wiser without them.
No shit, I hope the little snitches get a personal 'thanks' from everyone they ratted out.
The one that pisses me off is Buttrose....All that money just gone😠😠.
EXACTLY!!!!
Cops are only good for traffic violations.
the cops set these people up with the drugs for their own gain they pull one in to make it look like they,re doing their job whilst all the others still operate !!! liars and thieves and the very worst kind of criminal
@@sineadcampbell5147 street code & respect
What a waste of police resources. The drugs are getting in anyway. Better if they produced their own clean drugs, with dosage amounts clearly written and a number for an addiction clinic and just sell it for cheap to adults so they don't need to break into my car or rob me at gunpoint for it.
They still gonna rob u.. but for less..
@@chantham84 not really they would just rob the stores like they do for alcohol it would drop drug related robberies
@@SkyJUSTIN6 Get a prescription for them, and get concession rates if you're poor/unemployed
I live in portugal, its all legal, crime is down 70% www.theguardian.com/news/2017/dec/05/portugals-radical-drugs-policy-is-working-why-hasnt-the-world-copied-it
Cops would have nothing to do. And shows like this would have nothing to report on.
lol it's not 109 grams of coke .. it's 1.9 grams lol WTF !!! i was dead !!! these guys are like 50 years old
Usually the older ones are better established.
CS:GO Frags/clips tard face? Gold. 😂😂😂
personel
You think it was the younger generations that invented drug dealing ? 😂
How do they figure him to be mr big when he is buying on tick 😂😂
Mr big 😂
I have 15 yr old mates who flip more then mr.big
jarrod brown You just don’t though
Just hype for a film,he's a normal type dealer,truth be told most business is done on tick once there is trust.
TheAfrikaKorps idk where u are from but trust me! There are a lot of young kids moving more weight than this!
1.9 grams of cocaine? I sniff that on a standard weekend lol
Poor nose...
That's not even a 8 Ball. 🎱 ☃
That's not even a tease!
It's 300 dollars a gram over there! Crazy ain't it
300$. Wow. Where are you?
Shut 1 dealer down, 10 more take his place.
Gangstas: We don't die we multiply
good work
what about the drug lords in parliament?
poLIEticans
judges
lawyers
pigs...
Yes love to hear this!
Literally almost every "drug lord" on this show doesnt even meet the standards of being a drug lord. These are just average dealers here in the USA and in Britain and Mexico etc. Maybe they are considered that in Australia, but not anywhere else mostly. I guess it's how you percieve it
It's how you pitch an idea about "Australian drug lords" to extremely gullible network execs 😂😂😂
Exactly, 'Ndrangheta is moving tons of ecstasy and coke to Australia, these are just street peddlers.
Many real estate agents take 3% commission on several 300-400k EUR apartments a month. They're making legit money far exceeding what these bums make.
Isn't that just great! Our Lords are bigger than theirs. Just like our zombies are more than theirs! What a fuss!
What did these arrests really solve?
I don't see evidence that the underlying issues of why people turn to these things as a means of escape being addressed. If the courier by airplane was really earning $500 and doing this *just* to have food wouldn't it make more sense to address the barriers to employment and work backwards.
I don't see how giving these individuals a criminal record and the obstacle this creates in getting a employment after release has been beneficial. And even worse than this: You've just sent them to a criminal college where their skills could be refined to continue upon release.
Unfortunately it seems to me that this justice was punitive and not restorative. Simply because these drugs didn't "hit the streets" wasn't stopping the end users from getting drugs. Yes the police can have their press release saying they caught this group. But I think there are much bigger and hard hitting questions to address the "why" the need for this actually exists. By the time you reach this level of sophistication you have a much bigger problem on your hands that a few arrests doesn't fix.
Dude wasnt doing million dollar drug deals he bough a half a pound of bud and half a pound of glass
And not even 2 grams of charlie...
My God your drug sentences in Australia are soft get busted US you get life.
luvcusmile smile Yeah that's cause your musceling into the CIA main funding for black ops they gotta put the competition out of business.
Yeah its a joke, no wonder these guys are willing to roll the dice....need sentences like in SE Asia.
Sorry I've never watched fox news, I'm Australian and i listen to a wide variety of views including public radio that is very bias left wing..
The issue of drugs in society is a seperate one, and very complex, its not just about what an individual does, it's how it effects wider society, just look at the huge problems we have with alcohol, decriminalise or different approaches may be worth looking at for some drugs.
But as long as it's illegal at least have sentences that are a deterrent, at the moment guys like this in the video are completely willing to roll the dice and make huge money because it's totally worth the risk, most of these guys most likely still have hundreds or millions stashed, get out in ten years and they still can retire, to them it will still be worth it.
The biggest problem most have is greed, its just never enough.
BTW. the biggest hoax is the saying "war on drugs" and saying it doesn't work, it's no different than saying law enforcement on rape or murder doesn't work because people still rape or murder, it's not something you ever totally stop, but it doesn't mean you just go, yeah ok too hard...everyone can do as they like either.
That’s what I’m screaming!
we never get busted in the US because everybody is in it to eat a good meal !! lol hahaha
IF THAT HAPPENED IN SINGAPORE 🇸🇬, ITS A ONE WAY TICKET TO THE GALLOW!!
Yeah go do a drug deal in a stolen car 👏👏👏👏👏
Such a waste, all those good drugs seized.
How did they get the cameras in the rooms? And what sort did they use?
lool'd at "we had to think outside of the square", not saying this guys a 2D character, just his outlook on life.
1 pound of weed+1pound of ice+2 grams of Coca...not exactly what I would expect the leading guy on a Coast to purchase...I would expect 10x+ that!
The only thing 'big' about this clown is his belly
wonder whats under it sinead
I don't see why the cops are so excited, they have intercepted a few middle men, but not the big fish. Next week a new bunch of players would have filled the void and distribution started all over again. Funny how the case shuts down when they get close to the source
Legalise
Problem solved
@Islami Shqip Better to have drugs than barbaric religious morons who worship a child molester.
Boondoggle you are very small minded and pathetic
Doncha hate that tap on the shoulder!
14:27 - "and another pack, and that's going to be the MDA tablets." Gentlemen weren't paying attention. The cop slipped right there and let them know he already knew what he was looking for. oops.
This goes on everyday
Running drugs in a stolen car. Brilliant 💡 idea! 😳
Hello , i'm vietnamese person , i hope you should have english subtitle for non-english people to learn english much better .
"Nah don't know anything about those drugs in the boot of my car... a magic fairy must of put them there"
Elton jhon
What I don't understand is why he got a longer sentence than the three guys who sold him all his drugs and sold in that quantity to multiple buyers...
Probably because the other men did not have priors. They said they didn't even know who they were before being led to them by the man buying off of them who was already on the police radar
good job cops, way to stop nothing.
Lol was it an intentional pun or not, when they caught the guy with all that ice..saying that it was "the icing on the cake"? Lol
Think outside the square...... let's bug the room! Nobody would've ever thought of that.
I reckon unless it's for a serious crime, rape or murder, you don't get to bug people's rooms. If you can't figure it out then that's your problem.
him: your honor I just stole the car
I had no idea of its contents
Judge: sir have you seen the video
him: 🤬
How does local law enforcement just get warrants that fast and simple... Cameras in hotel rooms... Staff helped with that
Feels so good to see this kind of people is going down. but surely there are a lot more out there that need to be stopped too.
So, first they said Dan’d get two hundred bucks for transporting the drugs by air. Then they said five hundred a minute later. I mean, come on fellas, which is it?! Either way, no courier would do this for so little
A few hundred- not two hundred.
These guys are far from a syndicate or drug lords ... n when cops ask u what u have to say if u a true "drug lord " it's a simple 1 word answer LAWYER !
That was just personel 😂
I understand this show is a dramatization, but they really overdid it on the drama side. And as many posters have said, these guys were "drug lords"? They were minor players at best.
How the hell does the dude clearly buying drugs from what the show even referred to as the suppliers get charged & sentenced as the “boss”? That’s bullshit. He was straight buying on credit meaning the dude who would let 1mil go on credit is the damn boss because he has 30 Wayne whatever the hell his name is. That’s straight bunk bullshit
I don’t know why my comment get tagged as a response. My bad.
what about the druglords in parliament?
The ones that have half the country on antidepressants?
All but 2 are out now.
i shook pattersons hand in a bar in angeles city philippines in 1994,he had just got off drug charges there along with 2 mates,ones name was Tony Rose,i dont recall the other,i saw the story on a current affair,Marting King was the journo,he was sympathetic toward the 3,pointing out corruption in the philippines,i wonder how King feels about that now?i told patterson i had seen him on tv and offered to buy him a beer,he was affable enough,but seemed to be rushed,thanked me and told me he would catch up with me,never saw him again,read that he was captured in a car chase in philippines in 1997,i think there was gunfire,didnt learn his lesson
Patterson is low rent, as is anyone who buys on tick. The real dealers are part and parcel of the Australian government
Drug LORDS is a bit of a stretch. A dude fixes a few ecstasy pills to his legs with Glad Wrap, his payment AUD500. And why would you chance your arm going through an airport when you could drive from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Sure it takes longer, but it's much more sensible. Of course, it's even more sensible not to traffic drugs at all.
Shane Mansfield brought me here!! 😝
Lol Australia calling that guy a drug lord hahaha. Here in North America you'd have no room left in prison to jail what u Aussies call "Drug Lord".
Great Work y The Cops !
A pound of cannabis? More like 2-4 oz 😂😂😂 well unless it's shwag
They said he had like 428 grams, 28gs in an oz multiply it by 16 which is an Oz
If they are in Malaysia or Indonesia, rest in peace
Australian love bbq and gtr skylines lol
John Ram they love the glass barbie aswel lol
The Plug..."Mustard Shirt"
This shouldn’t be called drug lords it should be called Australia’s dumbest crims haha it’s like a comedy film with absolute amateurs running a semi decent drug ring
The real syndicate is the people they’re getting it from...
They always let you go through customs. Catch you on the other side so there is no way to get out of it.
Australia and “tip offs”...
We got mustard shirt
650 pills .. 109 grams of coke .. etc etc lol hahahah my little cousin got more then that .. and he's only 16
1.9grams of cocaine... LMAO
Ok kid
i800thizz have you got his number 🇬🇧👍🏻🤣🤣
Snitch
So he's a millionaire now then?
Come to Argentina each dealer sells 3 and up kilos just over a weekend and police raids each house has at least 15 and up and Australia they cot a guy with 147 million in extasi this guy is far from a drug lord
650 googs and 1.9 grams for coke isn’t even enough for the boys on the weekend
Methylamphetamine hahahahha
They got poor grandma methel's anphetimine
🤔🤔I wonder how many low level US dealers would fit the standards for druglord according to these stories ...y these "druglords" still do hand to hands and what "druglords" dont have murders involved 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️.....loose translation i guess 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Buying on tick and then end up getting more time then supplier... WTF?? syndicate shouldn't be even named after him.. the buyer.
Why are they dealing drugs, as they know that they will get caught and final destination is jail!!! Answer: Greed!! will take you nowhere!!!
the host sounds like he has a cold
Is Gary Sweet Oz's version of Ross Kemp then?
With a bond twist
Transporting drugs in a stole car. A stolen car. A FUCKING STOLEN FUCKING CAR.
This still doesn’t change the facts that there are 49 million kangaroos in Australia and 3.5 million people in Wales which means if kangaroos were to invade Wales each person will have to fight 14 kangaroos. 😃
Should all be legal made properly by big pharma companies
Stop blowing him out of proportion,he’s a two bob head case,
Big deal, all that taxpayer money, all that effort, all that drama, and they all know that in moments an entirely new chain of suppliers will emerge with hardly a pause. As long as there is demand there will always be supply.
Everyone got a name, except for "asian ken" he got a race.
The y had kingpin Tony two shoes, but he was nabbed just days earlier, went down hard selling 50 pain tablets to grandmothers
Think outside the 'box'.
Funny. Everytime i watch one of these they get like no time at all. In america you get like 30 years for same crimes. Which is ridiculous
What if turned the 👮♀️ 👮 onto “Mr. Big”??
Who orders a little less than 2 grams of coke...who says give me1.9
Schoolies, Indie, and eccie on the goldie?
I don't know why the cops bother. For every five they put away another ten appear. They'll just get another one set up. Too much money in it.
Budget Ross Kemp
Close down the whole Syndicate.
And in no time another syndicate starts up.
Waste of time.
These are petty drug dealers at best.
Thing is. Drugs aren't actually bad or immoral. Police though, often immoral.
It's actually ACTUAL POLICE FOOTAGE! As they say in every fucking video.
The Aussie Ross Kemp loving a catchphrase.
They need to arrest the users because without the users they won't be all these suppliers.
Just normal every day drug suppliers this lot.
Wow Australia looks lovely, with drug dealers as unscary as that id live there
Somebody got jewed for that .1 of coke
'Asian Ken'. Classic.
Ia Asian Ken related to Malibu Stacy?
the pol-ice don't arrest everyone. only theor competition...
