Actually, I don't want to say that because I don't want people to start doing that and taking away from us, so
mention that.
Okay.
Nooting gives a sworn affidavit.
He runs down everything, the trips to Pakistan, the handshake with the warlord, the desert rainstorm, the cash handed over in Singapore, and then the kicker we didn't get into too much last episode, he swears the negotiations were still alive, still running, right up to the morning of his own arrest.
He was still organizing for the next 20-ton load the morning they took him at LaGuardia Airport in Queens.
And there's more.
There was a side agreement Newton never told anyone about, to ship a load to Canada and personally collect the drug debts the Pakistanis were owed from several Canadians.
Stuart Newton, the man the DEA called the biggest drug dealer in New England, had been moonlighting as the Pakistanis' North American collections agent, which is interesting because there's still no violence he had a hand in or ordered that we know about, right?
And you think that would have come up in this gigantic trial, which is a hard thing to accomplish if you're working in drug dealer collections and if you're a drug dealer on that scale in the first place, right?
But anyway...
Newton puts all of this on paper for the feds to build a case on Afridi.
And Newton's money man, who organizes tens of millions of dollars cash into Swiss bank accounts and other banks across 10 countries, who also helped move money to Afridi and his crew, he met them, he puts down seven pages, plus an earlier confession offering to walk the DEA agent to the supplier's own house in Singapore.
He was the one grabbed in Switzerland, in Geneva, then extradited.
He also discloses that there was cash delivered by hand there on occasion to a Freedy himself, the man at the top, personally pocketing the American proceeds in a hotel room identified by his own banker.
The third man, Robert Venezia, adds seven more pages.
Honestly, he's one of the genuine mysteries in the record, and there are a lot of them.
What we know is exactly this.
He submitted a seven-page affidavit that traveled inside the Afridi extradition package alongside Newton's 14 pages and Bloomfield's seven, and the government's 1996 memo lists his name and page count alongside the others.
That's it.
