WEBVTT - Introducing: "Murder in Miami"

0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Murder in Miami is a production of My Heart Radio.

0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Miami had become the murder capital of the United States.

0:00:09.080 --> 0:00:12.719
<v Speaker 1>Every day somebody was getting shot, murdered, robbed. I would

0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:18.320
<v Speaker 1>categorize it as the wild West because any Vaddy crossed

0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the cartails and any white that gets killed everybody it

0:00:21.760 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 1>was home in. Phil Stanford dove into Miami's shadowy, sinister side,

0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:33.120
<v Speaker 1>just as cocaine was captivating and corrupting the city. Down

0:00:33.159 --> 0:00:36.440
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the bar, there's this guy. Hands

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:42.199
<v Speaker 1>me his card, says Clay Williams. Intercept Detective Agency, setting

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Stanford on an unbelievably surreal path, and I called the

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:50.400
<v Speaker 1>number on it. Secretary answers, She says, I'm sorry, we

0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>don't have a Clay Williams here. Did he ever turn up?

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, about two weeks later they found his body

0:00:56.880 --> 0:01:00.160
<v Speaker 1>in the Everglades. That's how you got rid of But

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:03.560
<v Speaker 1>you dumped him in the Everglades with the alligators. A

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 1>path filled with temptation. As we say in the staff,

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:11.720
<v Speaker 1>money talks and bullshit walks. They were making millions of

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>millions of dollars. Yeah, no matter what I did, I

0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:18.280
<v Speaker 1>got paid very well. I thought it was a great

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:24.440
<v Speaker 1>job and riddled with violence. She was found beaten and

0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.679
<v Speaker 1>stopped in the trunk of her Mercedes. I thought I cut.

0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:31.039
<v Speaker 1>I knew that I had to get out of there

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 1>as fast as I could. I was scared for my life.

0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>A world orbiting around a mysterious and controversial Manda drug

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>pilot by the name of Lamar Chester. And Lamar Chester,

0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>did you ever run anything with Grass? Until I turned

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.200
<v Speaker 1>over that load of coat to him on the island?

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 1>You offered Lamar a million dollars to land at his island.

0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Chester would claim he did it all for the CIA,

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:04.320
<v Speaker 1>many into a sprawling federal investigation linked to the highest

0:02:04.440 --> 0:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>levels of corruption and betrayal. And did he tell you

0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>who he was running the guns for? It was obvious

0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the CIA was running that show. So Clay wasn't the

0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 1>only person who was murdered. Oh no, not by a

0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:26.960
<v Speaker 1>long shot. I'm Lauren Bright Pacheco. Join me for Murder
