Experience is my education and education is my advantage. Late December, 2015, Oakland, California. I’ve been sending loads out of state fifty pounds at a time from the different farms. Two suitcases of 25 pounds apiece in the trunk of every third car is standard. Caravans to different states: some to the Pacific Northwest, some to the Midwest, and some all the way east. Marshall, who also made 10 trips to Cardiff and London, ferrying drugs for the gang, admitted conspiring to supply cocaine. One of the reasons for that is the fourth car. He stays tight behind the load car, so police can’t get directly behind him. He’s getting in the way, so they can’t run plates easily. He’s running interference.The first few loads were all right.

You don’t really need that second car. It costs more and doesn’t do anything specific other than add a set of eyes. But it’s an extra buffer, one more layer of confusion for authorities. Three cars is too few, five cars is too expensive. But four is perfect. The third car is the load. He’s carrying the shit in the trunk. That’s a rule: No drugs inside the passenger area of a car. A corollary to that is, Always drive a car with a trunk. No SUVs. No Muranos. None of that. An ordinary boring sedan with a trunk. Martyn Walsh, defending Marshall, who had one previous conviction for theft from 2011, said his client had always worked hard to provide for his wife and children, and was described as being "a devoted family man".However, this book is a very different take - an anonymous autobiography of the life of someone who seems to have been pulled into this world rather than entered it.
