Jack Laurence

Although Bill says this new technology creates an entire other issue.

But of course, before Bill found himself incarcerated in one of the Western Hemisphere's most dangerous prisons, he was a wanted man.

My name is Jack Lawrence.

Welcome to Wanted.

So as we know from our previous episode, Bill has left the US and is living in Costa Rica with three Italian bank robbers.

When he meets a man who runs a trafficking business or a coyote smuggling operation and gives Bill a job.

or five thousand dollars a week each year many people will try and succeed to enter the united states illegally in fact in 2021 a record 1.7 million people were caught trying to cross the southern border and those are the ones that were caught

Some come from Mexico and simply try their luck running across the border by themselves.

Others will pay to be taken over the border by guides, while some will come by boat.

But don't underestimate just how dangerous and ruthless it can be trying to enter a country this way, as Bill talks us through one of the worst things he ever witnessed while being the captain of one of these boats.

It would be while working this job that Bill says he would take a man's life for the very first time in self-defense.

Bill's now floating just off the harbour at three o'clock in the morning on a people smuggling boat with a dead man.

To say he was in a really bad spot is an understatement.

He says he was terrified.

He just killed a guy and had no intention of doing so.

But he stays put until he would see the flashing lights of a vehicle at the dock.

It's the boss.

So you might be thinking that while you're listening to the life and times of a cartel hitman, that stories such as the one Bill just told us will be littered throughout these episodes.

Details on just how he would carry out his work as a killer for hire.

But you'd be wrong.
