Smuggler Catcher

About the Book

This book “Smuggler Catcher” details my career with US Customs later, after 9/11 renamed to US Customs and border Protection. Every word in the books is true and correct. Together with my highly successful work I had to fi ght for the promotions. This due to the fact that I was still a foreigner in the eyes of some of my supervisors who simply refused to accepts me as one of their own.The book contains a number of original photographs which show some of my successful operations. I estimate that during my work for the US Government we have seized over twenty million dollars of “Dirty Money”. I am now happily retired and enjoying the benefi ts given to me.
