I knew that I would never go home, never again dance with my lovely wife or sit with my family around the dining table and bounce my grandchildren on my knee. When I received the life sentence in Australia I was in a special housing unit, a maximum-security jail within a maximum-security prison, a bad place, reserved for the worst of the worst. Yes, my crimes pale next to these scoundrels. Cheap land mines are manufactured in the United States and sold to impoverished countries in the third world where children are killed, mutilated and blinded every day. Congressmen are bribed to vote against clean energy. Ruthless politicians, bought by big business, voted to ship millions of American jobs to China. Two hundred thousand were killed and countless maimed. Then he and Dick Cheney went after the oil in Iraq using “Weapons of Mass Destruction”, a blatant lie, to bomb everything in Baghdad except the oil ministry. and his brother Jeb, who was governor of Florida, stole the election from Al Gore by not allowing the citizens of Broward County Florida’s votes to be counted. You can search the internet for “Mena Arkansas” the full story. Real crime? The Clintons were up to their eyeballs in cocaine. My crimes pale next to those of presidents in office. We can’t live in a lawless society, but why change the laws so drastically? Before Ronald Regan the maximum sentence for marijuana was five years in prison. Yet I know I am an outlaw and those that break the law must be punished. I don’t lie, cheat or steal and I always take up for the underdog. I don’t consider myself much of a criminal. This begins the twenty-eighth year, out of the last thirty four, that I have been in prison for non-violent drug offences. I made untold millions and lived a life few can believe and I have paid dearly, with interest, for the privilege. I was probably the most prolific smuggler of the last century, flying in well over a hundred loads of marijuana, hashish and cocaine into the United States, plus sailing twenty-ton shiploads from Pakistan to Thailand. In three years I go up for parole, I have never seen a lifer get parole on the first application they always say ‘come back in three years'. I have served fifteen years of a non-parole period of eighteen years. I owe them seven-thousand nine hundred and thirty-five days, or twenty-one years, nine months, for the possession of two hundred kilos of marijuana in 1976, thirty-seven years ago. marshals are to arrest me and take me to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles for a parole violation. I also received a warrant for my arrest in the United States, stating that U.S. I read a lovely card from my wife, seems everyone else forgot. I’m serving a life sentence in Australia for importing cocaine. Please, order your copy of the book, spread the word to your friends on Facebook and write a review on Amazon! Hillary and Bill will not like what Roger has to say - especially the $50,000 per week he was paying through Barry Seal for the landing rights there - "All the way to the top". Many interesting tidbits about the trade - especially Mena, Arkansas.

His representative stated that they should be informed when the book came out - it has taken a further 8 years for this to happen. James Cameron expressed an interest in the book for a movie deal in 2008. Roger was also present at the meeting that started the Medellin Cartel - a party held on the West coast of Colombia.
