Damon began hustling at just 14 years old in Pensacola, Florida, at the dawn of the crack epidemic. What started with flipping a stolen batch of raw crack into $1,600 quickly spiraled into a life defined by money, power, and danger. Episode Highlights: 🔥 The Crack Era Hustle – How Damon learned the game as a teenager, dodging rivals and police while building his first operation. 💰 The Cocaine Connection – Meeting the right plug turned him into the cocaine supplier for the entire Southeast U.S., building an 8-figure empire and amassing millions. 🚨 Living Large, Drawing Heat – The DEA began circling as Damon and his crew flaunted wealth after years of staying under the radar. ⚖️ Trials & Sentencing – Beating one Florida case in court but losing another, Damon was sentenced to 20 years in Florida State Prison, serving 17 years behind bars. 🔑 Redemption & Mentorship – Today, Damon is the founder of Inc to Inc. (Incarcerated to Incorporated), where he mentors ex-drug dealers on how to apply their street smarts to build legitimate businesses. 👉 This episode delivers raw stories of the crack era, cocaine trafficking, DEA investigations, and prison survival—but also shows how transformation and redemption are possible. If you’re into true crime, prison stories, and the rise and fall of drug kingpins, this conversation is one you won’t forget. Need help with your federal case?
