Jeremy’s story begins in South Carolina, where he first started selling dime bags of Cannabis out of a local restaurant. That small hustle escalated into a sophisticated smuggling operation, moving 80 pounds of cannabis a month from California to South Carolina. Using an elaborate scheme to hide Cannabis inside mattresses shipped across the country, Jeremy and his partners pulled in hundreds of thousands of dollars during their run. But after nearly a year of success, the inevitable happened—federal agents kicked in his door. Charged with trafficking 100 kilograms or more of Cannabis, Jeremy was sentenced to a 5-year federal mandatory minimum.
