The King of UK Cocaine Smugglers

An inside story on how an elite team of Customs Investigators were able to disrupt the drug trafficking activities of various Organised Crime Groups, including one run by Brian Brendan Wright, who was undoubtedly the most prolific supplier of cocaine in UK history. It was an investigation without parallel in UK Drugs Law Enforcement and took six years to complete with assistance from police and customs in Ireland, The Caribbean, Mexico, Venezuela, Australia, France, South Africa and the USA. Eighteen offenders convicted world-wide and sentences totalling 245 years were imposed. A total of 494 kilos of cocaine were seized in the UK with a street value of 61 million. Five trials were conducted and one of them lasted 14 months- the second longest in UK legal history. The King of UK Cocaine Smugglers gives a thrilling account of the methods used to counteract the activities of drug smugglers and bring them to justice.
