Quite a story! This is the compilation of the crimes of Paul Le Roux and his employees. The author, Evan Ratliff, does a masterful job of tracking down thugs, ex-military, hitmen, and others affiliated with Le Roux's operations. I got a bit lost in parts trying to keep track of the myriad of characters and who was on which continent, but it was a mind blowing story of one man's power and control over foreign governments, the drug trade, and more.
Couldn't sleep last night so I listened to a couple hours of this insane #audiobook! I'm just getting started, but I'm intrigued by this true story. #nonfictionnovember #nfnovember
#LilithJuly This previous #BOTM was a true crime thriller that seemed too crazy to be true. Paul Calder Le Roux—a reclusive programmer turned #criminal genius taunted the FBI with his brazen online activities that included selling prescription drugs ( without legit prescriptions) weapons, mercenaries and a host of other illegal schemes. Totally mind boggling and made for a wild read. I just had a hard time keeping up with all the “players” 🤯
This is a wild ride uncovering a global drug and arms ring that also hits the online pharmaceutical industry. The amount of reporting, on a subject straight up filled with unreliable narrators, is astounding. Really fascinating what goes on in our world.
Well I just started this on my commute in today and I'm so hooked already that I need some sort of fake emergency to get me out of work and back home so I can binge read this on the couch. Any ideas?
This book is incredible. It‘s American Kingpin & American Pain on steroids. If you like true crime & international criminal conspiracies, you‘ll love this!
It‘s about the takedown of a man who started running an internet pharmacy that prescribed addictive non-scheduled drugs over the internet, but then it exploded to contract killings, throwing over governments, & making deals with North Korea & Iran. 5⭐️
Quite a #Manhunt #StarTrekSummerMay #BFC
There‘s certainly a lack #Ethics on the part of Paul La Roux and some of his associates in this true crime book. The story is so unbelievable, it can‘t be made up!
He‘s got his hand in so many business that are so criminal and personally unethical, it‘s just blown my mind.
Thanks @Cinfhen for the rec. 😘 #StarTrekSummerMay #audiobook #audible
#nonfiction2019 #turnedoutunexpectedly. A crazy true story of a criminal genius who made hundreds of millions in an online scheme w/ painkiller med supply, and then he graduated to darker criminal schemes in the underworld of drugs and arms and more. It‘s a complex story with many characters and events, but it‘s a wild ride. There‘s plenty of surprising unexpected things that occur in this one! No spoilers - read it and see!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I can already tell this book is going to be insane and possibly disturbing @Cinfhen !! Signature executions, worldwide drug cartels that trace to Oshkosh, WI! Sounds like a #HighwaytoHell for me! Dad and I are enjoying it, though. #MayMovieMagic @rohit-sawant

Starting this one, stranger than fiction #botm #nonfictionreads #truecrime
This was one crazy true story with so many components, it was difficult to keep track. Paul Le Roux created a multi million dollar online pharmacy allowing billions of painkillers to enter the US & be placed into the hands of customers without a doctor‘s prescription. Soon he was running guns, weapons and drugs right under the nose of the DEA. His disregard for the law, paranoia & greed ultimately became his downfall.
