Reformed Narc turned humanitarian, Barry Cooper with NeverGetBusted, introduces himself

in nevergetbusted •  8 years ago  (edited)

My name is Barry Cooper. I am a world famous drug expert who as a former drug agent, flipped the script and produced a video series that teaches people how to not get busted for pot. You can watch the videos free from my website https://nevergetbusted.com/.

I recently starred with Woody Harrelson, 50 Cent, Eminem and Susan Sarandon in the anti drug war documentary, “How To Make Money Selling Drugs.” The documentary features my videos and tells the story of why I had to flee the United States over 5 years ago.

I was made famous for my online reality show "KopBusters. " While running for Texas Attorney General, I set up stings to secretly film Texas cops conducting illegal raids and stealing drug money. One of the sting's purpose was to bring attention to a mother of two who was serving an eight year federal prison sentence. Texas police planted drugs on her and the courts did not believe her story. Because of KopBusters, she was released from prison and remains free today.

Kopbusters embarrassed and enraged law enforcement. In retaliation, the FBI submitted a secret report to all law enforcement agencies advising them to conspire together and shut me down. A popular hacker group discovered the secret report in a trove of government documents they released online. You can view the report here: http://www.rawstory.com/2011/06/exclusive-hackers-unearth-fbi-report-on-kopbusters-filmmaker-barry-cooper/

After airing the KopBuster stings on Youtube, Texas police raided my house felony S.W.A.T. style for a misdemeanor that directly related to the sting operations. Throughout a one-year period, the cops arrested me 4 times, my former wife 3 times and they took my Autistic son for 1.5 years. Because of the retaliation and death threats, I fled the U.S. five years ago and have not returned. http://www.progressive.org/news/2013/04/181898/%E2%80%98drug-war-insurgent%E2%80%99-flees-us-claiming-death-threats

I now blog/vlog and operate an Expert Witness firm from the safety of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Defense lawyers and their clients hire me to review evidence and give defense strategies on how to avoid lengthy prison sentences for non-violent drug offenses. As a drug expert, I also offer Ayahuasca/Ibogaine vacation retreats to help addicts and to improve the total well being of non-addict participants.

I heard about Steemit through my good friend and fellow anarchist, Jeff Berwick.

#nevergetbusted

hey there!
nice to meet you @barrycooper and welcome to the steem community 8]

welcome, Barry.

I'm sure you have some EXCELLENT contributions to make to the community with your experience and knowledge. It's a pleasure and honor to have you join us... :-)

Welcome to the #steemit community!

Thank you for being a voice for people who make perfectly ethical, yet illegal choices. Seriously.

Hi, I also like your videos

Seems Jeff and Amanda have dragged a few of us over here, me too!

You really look like a cartel boss tho.

@barrycooper what a dangerous job you got there. We also have a widespread problem about drugs here in the philippines and after the new president of the republic take his seat a month ago, he started his campaign against drugs. Lots of drug pushers were captured and surrendered, others were killed. The campaign goes on and its called "Giyera kontra droga" in english it's war against drug.

Welcome to Steemit @barrycooper ! I watched your NeverGetBusted series in highschool and am glad I did. Thanks for all the tips and helping the community see what happens on the other side.

Is there any part of being apart of the DEA that you miss? Any memorable or crazy stories you could share with us that hasn't been published?

I don't miss anything about being a cop. I have tons of unpublished stories though.

You should extend this advice for Indonesia 😜 #justkidding . Welcome !

Here to support you, Barry Cooper! Always will!!!

It is great to have you on board here.. It is good that you left that country.. I remember what happened to Aron Swartz, and Charlie Shrem.. I am from Canada but I live in Argentina now.. ¿Hablas castellano?

Hi Barry,
I have seen some of your videos and they have educated me well.
I find your presentation to be very informative, and love the humor in
your videos.
Awesome Job!!!
Protecting the everyday people.

Welcome to Steemit!

However, i do have mixed feelings about teaching people not to get bust with drugs. I can't imagine seeing my kids going to waste due to drugs and knowing someone who is advising them how not to get caught.

Anyway, that's just a personal opinion, nice story to read!

Barry Cooper is the man!! I watched this video several years ago in the hunt for tips and tricks.

IDC that this was 5 days ago. Love you man and everything you do. Not many people have a heart like you.

You gave an awesome presentation at Anarchapulco 2016, Barry. Welcome to Steemit!

Welcome, and share anything is on your mind anytime, I'll follow you.

Fucking amazing!
These laws the "state" creates are fake...they have no justice, and no helpful purpose.
Anarchy is the way, the only way to change this world is to directly bypass authorities and indeed to become your own authority!
