Eli5: How do high level narco members stay hidden, while living very wealthy?

2.18K viewsEconomicsOther

I am more talking about the bosses. I just can’t understand what they do with their money to enjoy it. I mean if you are on a most wanted list, I assume you can’t drive around in a 400k luxury car or stay in the biggest house with all the extravagant parties.

Reddit’s kingpin, AlpraKing, got away with a massive conspiracy to manufacture and distribute xanax, netting him a 4000+ bitcoin fortune. His identity, Alexandre Beaudry, had been floating around the darknet for years as the person behind the press. But he lived large, and eventually his fortune grew to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He bought a $1.7 million condo with cash and no one in law enforcement asked any questions. Until two men broke into his condo and tortured him for his bitcoin. After he gave up and unknown amount of bitcoin, he had to call an ambulance and the police came and started asking questions. Now he will be extradited to the US and possibly face a continuing criminal enterprise charge, aka life without parole.
