About this episode

In this episode, Wayne looks at the remarkable case of Daniel Alejandro Latriglia Salcedo, a Colombian student prosecutors say ran a multi-drug trafficking operation under the name 'Thanos'.


Using QR-coded business cards and Telegram menus, Salcedo openly marketed cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy, LSD and more, until police uncovered drugs, cash and digital evidence of dealing. Yet despite pleading guilty to serious drug trafficking offences, Salcedo walked free from court.


Joining Wayne is criminal psychologist Tim Watson-Munro, whose expertise has featured in some of Australia’s biggest criminal trials. Together, they break down how technology has changed the landscape of drug dealing- and why today’s dealers often believe they’re untouchable, right up until the moment they’re caught.
