Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

And the fourth guy that... Watson, of course, had only just previous convictions of minor road traffic.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

So he obviously, while he had some addiction issues and...

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

claims to have had this 10,000 euro debt.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

He hadn't come into difficulty with the law before.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

And there was nothing to suggest... Watson was interesting as well, Eamon, just to interrupt you, because they talked about how throughout his life he had worked...

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

They said he worked in factories, he worked in a bread factory, in McVitie's biscuit factory and working at Coca-Cola as a driver.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

He was a driver engineer and fixed machines, etc.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

So he is somebody who's had a steady time of it mostly until he's in a situation where this drug debt, we're told, spirals his life, basically.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

It's a foolish thing he's done, but to try and clear that debt and before his son is born, because his partner is pregnant, he decides to take up this job.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

His wife is an accountant, I think, and gets a job in the UK and they become British citizens.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

Yeah, yeah.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

They're very settled.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

No explanation as regards why he needed to make the quick... No, presumably, yeah.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

Because you see, I thought what was interesting was and the evidence given was that

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

There wasn't a sense of having to keep them quiet because they described how they were working in cell structures, the landing cell.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

Now, one of those landing cells, which included the guys we're just talking about, monks, et cetera, they were caught.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

But there was clearly other landing cells and the cells didn't know anything about one another.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

and the people working within the cells didn't know each other either.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

So they were kind of strangers put together.

Crime World
Episode 1356: How €42m of cocaine travelled from Brazil to the Shannon Estuary

So if you do get caught, you only know what you are supposed to have done.
