In the previous although, Jason did admit {that a} “brown envelope” was handed to cartel bosses – after his group discovered there was a hitman stalking them. He recalled: “What happened there was a little bit of a mixup, a bit of miscommunication.
“The cartel thought we were doing something, but we weren’t we were filming elsewhere with the cartel. And they basically said we had wasted of their time sent couple of hitmen round to the hotel we were staying in.”

As quickly because the group received wind of the menace, there have been a few panicky cellphone calls again to London. He mentioned: “We ended up doing the old brown envelope drop-off in a f*****g pizza parlour.
“There was some weird code word to London, something like ‘extra pepperoni’ meant ‘everything’s all OK, and we’re alive’.”
Jason says that, whereas lots of people are concerned within the cartel’s brutal commerce, in lots of instances they actually haven’t any different alternative. He defined: “They’re in a f*****g s*** scenario …they’re simply victims.
“They are born in a place that doesn’t give a f*** about them, and everyone says ‘They’re in the drugs world so they’re complicit,’ and I say ‘No they’re not, they haven’t got a choice’.”
