You know, 7 00:00:45,281 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 2: whatever I've done in life, whether it was sports as 8 00:00:48,441 --> 00:00:50,121 Speaker 2: a kid because Mum put me in a bunch of sports, 9 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: whether it was punching on at school, you know and 10 00:00:52,801 --> 00:00:55,601 Speaker 2: becoming the popular kid, whether it was being the cool 11 00:00:55,641 --> 00:01:00,281 Speaker 2: kid in the streets, or whether it was being a 12 00:01:00,401 --> 00:01:02,241 Speaker 2: shot call if you want to say, in your area, 13 00:01:02,441 --> 00:01:05,601 Speaker 2: you know, someone that makes makes some moves and it 14 00:01:05,601 --> 00:01:08,081 Speaker 2: makes things happen for the streets, which is negative. I 15 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:09,881 Speaker 2: have to put that in there. But yeah, I am 16 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,761 Speaker 2: of succeeded. So in saying that, I succeeded, and so 17 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,681 Speaker 2: I was very successful, but I ended up catching a case. 18 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,881 Speaker 2: So what happened then was out of town Biuance got 19 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,041 Speaker 2: approached by a cuple undercover ladies that were walked up, 20 00:01:27,041 --> 00:01:29,361 Speaker 2: you know, with their lollipops, tending there off their dick, 21 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,521 Speaker 2: and that turned there off their head. Going, ah, can 22 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,241 Speaker 2: we get some? And I think over a two month 23 00:01:34,321 --> 00:01:37,681 Speaker 2: period he ended up selling them in separate batches, so 24 00:01:37,761 --> 00:01:39,361 Speaker 2: not all at once, but in a two month period 25 00:01:39,401 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: of them regularly seeing him and having his phone number 26 00:01:41,881 --> 00:01:47,161 Speaker 2: and catching up with him. The policeport seven thousand ecstasy 27 00:01:47,161 --> 00:01:50,321 Speaker 2: tablets and eleven hundred grams of speed. This is him 28 00:01:50,321 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: back in two thousand and five. And yeah, so then 29 00:01:54,201 --> 00:01:56,361 Speaker 2: they with the phone intercepts and all the rest of it, 30 00:01:56,401 --> 00:02:00,441 Speaker 2: and the undercovers and COVID operations as they do, they 31 00:02:00,521 --> 00:02:05,161 Speaker 2: ended up pinning me. Was alleging, not alleging because I 32 00:02:05,161 --> 00:02:07,601 Speaker 2: took a plea. But there's more to the story. But 33 00:02:08,081 --> 00:02:11,081 Speaker 2: it's all sold, sealed and delivered now. So they end 34 00:02:11,201 --> 00:02:14,081 Speaker 2: up saying that I was his supplier for that amount. 35 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: So I took a plea bargain. In the end, if 36 00:02:16,401 --> 00:02:19,281 Speaker 2: I had taken that to trial and was found guilty, 37 00:02:19,441 --> 00:02:23,201 Speaker 2: which I was guilty of trafficking, I omit that and 38 00:02:23,281 --> 00:02:27,641 Speaker 2: I have been found guilty at trial for those amounts 39 00:02:28,001 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: and the racket they say we were running. I could 40 00:02:32,041 --> 00:02:34,161 Speaker 2: have got decent figures, you know, like a lot more 41 00:02:34,201 --> 00:02:37,241 Speaker 2: than what I got. And so yeah, I took a 42 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,001 Speaker 2: plea bargain, and they got me, still got me on 43 00:02:41,041 --> 00:02:45,281 Speaker 2: the ropes because they introduced a new a new charge 44 00:02:45,281 --> 00:02:48,601 Speaker 2: which was called between dates. So if you and me, 45 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: let's say you're me meet up at the pub bent 46 00:02:51,201 --> 00:02:52,601 Speaker 2: and I don't know if this is still in play 47 00:02:52,641 --> 00:02:54,961 Speaker 2: because I'm out of the game, but back then it 48 00:02:55,001 --> 00:02:57,361 Speaker 2: was very new. We almost set a precedence for it. 49 00:02:57,481 --> 00:02:59,361 Speaker 3: I've not heard of it, so I'm interested in here and. 50 00:03:01,001 --> 00:03:02,881 Speaker 2: Between dates. So if you and me meet at the 51 00:03:02,881 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: pub and I've got a pound of weed, let's say, 52 00:03:07,001 --> 00:03:09,201 Speaker 2: and I say to you, would you like to buy 53 00:03:09,201 --> 00:03:11,601 Speaker 2: this pound of weed? And you buy that pound of weed, 54 00:03:12,561 --> 00:03:16,321 Speaker 2: then that's one that's one charge, you know, trafficking a 55 00:03:16,361 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: pound a weed from one bloke to another. This is 56 00:03:18,441 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: all hypothetical. Just give the listeners what you need to 57 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,721 Speaker 2: get them an understandable And or if I was to 58 00:03:24,761 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 2: see you once every week for because the pounds, let's 59 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,001 Speaker 2: say sixteen ounces, So if I was to see you 60 00:03:32,041 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: once every week and sell you an ounce, so sixteen 61 00:03:35,161 --> 00:03:37,201 Speaker 2: weeks in a row, I've sold you an ounce every week, 62 00:03:37,881 --> 00:03:41,601 Speaker 2: you'd think that the sixteen ounces is a better charge 63 00:03:42,561 --> 00:03:46,161 Speaker 2: than the one hit of a pound. It's not. It's 64 00:03:46,201 --> 00:03:49,521 Speaker 2: called between dates. What that sixteen ounces does is it 65 00:03:49,561 --> 00:03:53,561 Speaker 2: shows an ongoing enterprise, ongoing supply, so ongoing criminal enterprise 66 00:03:53,601 --> 00:03:55,761 Speaker 2: as they call it. So it's better off that you 67 00:03:55,841 --> 00:03:58,641 Speaker 2: sell the one big batch than break that little batch up. 68 00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:01,881 Speaker 3: Knowing you're consciously doing that time and time and time 69 00:04:01,921 --> 00:04:04,161 Speaker 3: and time again. You keep reoffending. 70 00:04:04,321 --> 00:04:08,241 Speaker 2: Exactly yes, and it shows that you know that you've organized. 71 00:04:08,321 --> 00:04:10,641 Speaker 2: It's all more of an organized racket, is they would 72 00:04:10,641 --> 00:04:13,361 Speaker 2: put it, you know. And so they offered me a 73 00:04:13,401 --> 00:04:16,081 Speaker 2: between dates, and they broke an amount down over so 74 00:04:16,161 --> 00:04:19,081 Speaker 2: many weeks of the investigation, and we took a plee 75 00:04:19,361 --> 00:04:21,001 Speaker 2: and I got a five with a three, which was 76 00:04:21,161 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: a little bit steep for the weight they put to me. 77 00:04:26,561 --> 00:04:29,041 Speaker 2: I think it was one hundred bickies a week or 78 00:04:29,081 --> 00:04:32,041 Speaker 2: something like that for a few months, and which broke 79 00:04:32,081 --> 00:04:35,281 Speaker 2: it took a bunch of the weight off, but still 80 00:04:35,281 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: got me a five or three. But you know, you know, 81 00:04:37,641 --> 00:04:39,401 Speaker 2: it's a blessing in disguise. If I had taken the 82 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,241 Speaker 2: trial and found guilty on that maund I probably got 83 00:04:41,241 --> 00:04:44,441 Speaker 2: double the time. But anyway, so I did my time, 84 00:04:45,481 --> 00:04:47,481 Speaker 2: and I thought it was pretty cool. I was in 85 00:04:47,521 --> 00:04:50,081 Speaker 2: the know and I ended up, you know, if you 86 00:04:50,121 --> 00:04:53,001 Speaker 2: could say, trying to prove myself for you know, be 87 00:04:53,081 --> 00:04:55,681 Speaker 2: a hard time. I thought I was, and I ran 88 00:04:55,721 --> 00:04:57,801 Speaker 2: the muck and punched my way through the system, and 89 00:04:57,841 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: I did all right, you know, I was fucking hell, 90 00:04:59,961 --> 00:05:02,001 Speaker 2: it's pretty fucking easy. But then I got to borrow 91 00:05:02,001 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: and ended up getting all the way to bar and 92 00:05:03,361 --> 00:05:06,321 Speaker 2: eventually slot and bowing. And once I got to bail 93 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: and I found my pecking order. You know, there was 94 00:05:08,361 --> 00:05:10,441 Speaker 2: some some serious fucking criminals up there. 95 00:05:10,601 --> 00:05:12,841 Speaker 3: So just slow it down, Slow it down for a second, 96 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,481 Speaker 3: because not everybody understands the system as well. Every state's different. 97 00:05:16,481 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: In Australia. You talking about coming through ramand before class, 98 00:05:20,681 --> 00:05:23,681 Speaker 3: how are you? And then were you class owed into bowin. 99 00:05:23,601 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 2: Yep, So I was out on bail. I got bail 100 00:05:25,361 --> 00:05:28,801 Speaker 2: for the charges and then I got sentenced sentence. So 101 00:05:28,841 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 2: when I was pleaded guilty and sentencing, I got sentenced 102 00:05:31,761 --> 00:05:34,881 Speaker 2: at three or for five so minimum three years five 103 00:05:34,921 --> 00:05:37,761 Speaker 2: on the top. And I went in and they because 104 00:05:37,761 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: I was young enough, I was in my just before 105 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:45,121 Speaker 2: my mid twenties. I and then sorry, let me add 106 00:05:45,121 --> 00:05:48,081 Speaker 2: this to this, so a little bit I missed. I 107 00:05:48,121 --> 00:05:51,801 Speaker 2: never decided once I got a Juvi, I danced around 108 00:05:51,801 --> 00:05:53,961 Speaker 2: on the on the vikis and stuff in the techno 109 00:05:54,001 --> 00:05:55,521 Speaker 2: scene for a little bit, and there was about eighteen 110 00:05:55,561 --> 00:05:57,961 Speaker 2: I think, and I decided to not take drugs. Part 111 00:05:57,961 --> 00:06:00,121 Speaker 2: of that level up process, part of that being better 112 00:06:00,161 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: than the next guy. So I decided to knock drugs 113 00:06:02,681 --> 00:06:05,721 Speaker 2: on the head. So and then so I did all that, 114 00:06:06,121 --> 00:06:08,441 Speaker 2: all that those years. I was saying that it was 115 00:06:08,481 --> 00:06:11,121 Speaker 2: playing up, sort of build my little empire, if you'd 116 00:06:11,121 --> 00:06:15,721 Speaker 2: say that I was clean, clean as it, and I 117 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,001 Speaker 2: put my game to the streets. So and I only 118 00:06:19,041 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: did that because I wanted to be. 119 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 3: A bit let's yeh. But hang on a second. That 120 00:06:22,001 --> 00:06:24,241 Speaker 3: just sets a little bit of a bar for the 121 00:06:24,281 --> 00:06:27,801 Speaker 3: sort of person that you are now. A lot of 122 00:06:27,841 --> 00:06:32,841 Speaker 3: people in high dependency or addiction on it extremely hard 123 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,401 Speaker 3: to find that strength to get out of it and 124 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:41,241 Speaker 3: maintain that. Sobriety, you're a man who had a goal 125 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,001 Speaker 3: and a purpose, put his mind to it and knocked 126 00:06:44,001 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 3: it straight on the fucking head to be bigger and 127 00:06:47,481 --> 00:06:50,681 Speaker 3: better at what you wanted to achieve. Now, just put 128 00:06:50,721 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 3: this in perspective. I'm jumping forward again, and this is 129 00:06:54,681 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: part of your story to ere Yar today.
