He offers insights into how chop shops operate and how organized crime groups conspire to transport stolen vehicles across the border to Mexico. He also notes the models of cars he stole, including Chevrolets and Ford pickup trucks, and discusses the realism of car theft in movies and games like "Gone in 60 Seconds" and "Grand Theft Auto."
He stole hundreds of cars in and around Denver between 2016 and 2017.

I grew up playing GTA my whole life and I never even thought about stealing a car 😂
-
This guys blames everything else except himself. The drugs did not make you a criminal, nor did some videogame. You made those choices and they were wrong. In between he constantly admits that it was actually really fun to do, he loved the rush.
-
Yes please, blame it on videogames... Oh God...
-
Former military..... blames video games halfway through..... ironic given the DoD's game development spending.
-
This guy should be forced to pay the victims he stole from.
-
Oh yeah? Well, I grew up watching road runner and coyote cartoons, and never once thought of dropping an anvil on anyones head. 😆
-
Stole Escalades but didn't mess with vehicles equipped w/ on star. Got it! 😂
-
Failed rapper, failed drug dealer, junkie and car thief and everything is not his fault but GTA needs to be forbidden. Also lots of his stories sounds like pure bullshit six hot persuits in a day, sure......
-
It's true, car theft increases everyone's insurance. So even though the victim might get an insurance payout, thieves are stealing from everyone at the same time.
-
This video can be used to educate the public on narcissism. Zero accountability dead give away.
-
Okay but where’s justice? This guy stole over 200 vehicles, he has two eardrop tattoos insinuating he killed somebody, he says he carries shotguns and full autos with him during his jobs. Why is this man free?
-
Please stop using that awful, repetitive projector slide sound. These videos are great, but hearing that sound over and over in headphones is terrible
-
I have never heard anyone that has been in the Marines refer to themselves as "former Marine".
-
This guy is so full of bullshit and himself.
-
All of the other experts are clearly extremely knowledgeable and experienced in their craft. This dude sounds like he has no idea what he’s on about.
-
Judges who sentence such light punishments are a joke and should be held accountable.
-
Why get shot three times made him quit being a musician?
-
I dont agree with most of what this guy says 🤷♂️
-
It's cool that he got special treatment as a vet but what if we could help anyone who wanted it? The reason it's called the corrections system is because the goal originally was to prevent recidivism. We don't do that now. We don't just send people to prison AS punishment, but also FOR punishment.
-
According to this guy, he's a victim of car theft.
