I'm at the table with the cartel guy, and he just keeps looking at me with this weird look in his face.

I'm sitting there thinking, I don't think this guy's buying this story at all.

He stops me and he says, Jeffrey, you don't look like a millionaire.

He starts to kind of bow up on me like, I think this is a con job.

I stand up in the bar and I said, deals off.

And he says, well, what is the problem?

You know, the typical walk away in negotiation.

I said, look, you look really nice with your little Rolex and your cool little mesh looking shoes with no socks.

But you know what you look like to me? You look like a doper. So when I'm not showing you my airplane because the minute I do, they're going to know what we're doing. They're going to seize my million dollar airplane. So it's been nice talking to you, but then I basically told them to F off. I'm Steve Murphy, DEA Special Agent Retired and now host of the Game of Crimes podcast.

If you've seen the Netflix series Narcos, then you know my story.

I now bring you stories of heroism and bravery from our law enforcement and military heroes

And we're talking to a 30-year veteran of

law enforcement who spent his last 26 years as a special agent with the drug enforcement

administration. D-E-A. And I put this little sign up here just so you guys wouldn't forget the

lettering. D-E-A, right? Don't expect anything. I'm sorry, drunk every afternoon. I'm sorry,

Jeff Sweeten, Jeff, welcome to the show, brother. Thanks, Steve. You say that now. We'll see. Yeah, yeah, well, we'll see. Hey, you can't do any worse that's already been done to me, so don't worry about it. Yeah, all those years in the government, it's kind of hard to sit down sometimes, isn't it? That's true. That's true. So everybody, we're going back to the small town police blutter because this is the right guy to be reading the story. I'm not will tell you where he lives, but he's currently in Florida. He doesn't live here. He's like me. He's a snowbird, although I do
