Pieter began his journey as a small time drug dealer in the UK. He says that the illegal rave scene in the UK and lack of funding as a university student drove him to sell drugs on a larger scale. Pieter's operation eventually supplied many big time dealers in the UK. He then began importing cocaine from Ecuador to Europe through a cartel connection. Pieter was arrested in Ecuador and sentenced to 12 years in one of the worlds most violent and corrupt prisons. He now works as a public speaker on the dangers of drugs, and also presents a show on local radio station “incapable staircase” every Friday from 4-5:30 pm GMT.

I had a professor who used to send chemicals needed to make artificial sweeteners to Bogota that happened to be a white powder. Every shipment, without fail, was flagged because it was suspected to be cocaine, and every time my professor was like “WHY WOULD I BE SENDING COCAINE TO COLOMBIA”
-
"There's a huge business in keeping it illegal" - the most thought provoking line in the video.
-
I started doing drugs since my teenage, got addicted to cocaine. Spent my whole life fighting cocaine addiction. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
-
I was mesmerized with the interview of Posh Pete.. He is so down to earth.. He just explained 100% truly why war on drugs can't be won, and how we can stop it forever... Respect.. I wish corrupt government officials would think like him.. Prisons are the finishing schools of crime should also be a slogan... Thanks Mr Pieter Tritton and Insider for this awesome interview..
-
This guy is genuinely a professional, the way he speaks as if he’s describing the operation is like he’s in a job interview describing the duty’s of the job.
-
He is just about the most unlikely kind of guy you'd expect to be heading up a multimillion pound cocaine trafficking ring. He looks like someone who'd run the local PC repair shop.
-
This is one of the best, eye-opening and honest interview I have ever watched regarding a serious global issue. Congratulations on getting your life back and thanks for sharing your story. Kudos to the Insider team, too, for getting this masterpiece out 👍🏻👏🏻

I was a trafficker in California, and while I was closer to street level my experiences are similar to this guys. I never got caught because I realized when it was time to get out and took my chance, but he's right about the need to legalize it. Personally, I think it needs to be decriminalized instead, but that's for the public to decide. Just realize that "legal" and "illegal" still creates a market.
-
You can tell this guy is just a real professional, even if he was essentially a drug dealer. No ego about him. Speaks about the whole operation very analytically.
-
Most crimes are financially motivated. If the gain isn’t there, the motivation is gone. He’s absolutely right.
-
He is def not the image of a drug dealer i had on my mind all this time- like just look at him- he straight out spits wisdom
-
I hope the best for this gentlemen, I'm happy that he's able to tell his story and make an impact by telling his story and giving people insight into the destruction and turmoil that these kinds of businesses create throughout all walks of life.
-
"Prisons are the finishing schools of crime..." wow, just an incredible quote
-
What he says about monetary gains and how illegality of drugs is actually makes it even more lucrative all sides, is absolutely SPOT ON.
-
This guy is awesome. Love the way he bounced back after everything.
-
I was going to do some crime, but then you shared my plan with everyone, even the cops. Thanks a LOT.
-
For someone who's essentially a hardened criminal, and who has been imprisoned in some of the worst living conditions on the planet, this gentlemen seems extremely articulate, intelligent and very down to earth.
-
This guy is a legend. Love to see him the way he is now. Prison in Ecuador seems like a life changing place. Must have been so miserable & chaotic. :/
-
I 100% agree with him about the war on drugs only ends when theyre legalized and taxed
-
Currently starting in the business, video really helps thank you for the info! ☺️
