Show Notes

Michael “Freddie” Brown never made headlines—but every gang war in Jamaica bore his fingerprints. From Spanish Town to May Pen, he armed an entire generation without ever being seen. He wasn’t a don. He wasn’t a killer. He was worse: the man who made killing easier.
This cinematic investigative true crime story unpacks how one arms dealer ran a ghost pipeline of U.S. weapons into Jamaica for over a decade—fueling wars, balancing power, and leaving destruction long after his death.
Why did politicians look the other way?
How many of his weapons are still out there today?
And what happens when the devil who kept chaos controlled suddenly vanishes?
Comment below: Did his silence protect the system—or expose it?
