You're standing over the body of a woman who's been murdered. She's been killed for loan sharking at a casino by organized crime mobsters. This is the price of blood. This is the thing that few people ever talk about when discussing money laundering, you know, the usual barking guff of expensive defense lawyers and their trained seals in the media

How financial crimes are victimless, administrative misdemeanor. Today, on crime waves, we are gonna examine how the bloody trail of cash linked to Mexican drug cartels and corrupt Chinese communist officials was laundered through Canadian casinos. It was a process that went on for over a decade. A lot of people knew about it, but no one did anything to.

And this week we have an expert on money laundering. Peter German, the former Deputy Commissioner of the Mounts, that's the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. German produced two reports entitled “Dirty Money”, which revealed the depth of money laundering in the casino industry in Vancouver, Canada. Good morning, Peter.

On a Tuesday morning in September of 2009, Annie Le walked into a building on Yale University Campus and she disappeared. Her mobile phone and her wallet were still in the office, yet there was no trace of Annie anywhere.  Three days later,  police Lieutenant Lisa Dadio was given the job of discovering what had happened.  It was a literal 'closed room mystery'.  There was intense international media attention, three different police agencies  and no clues...

Are there regrets for a first generation American whose parents emigrated to the United States from Haiti?   Absolutely,  especially when your parents had to work tirelessly so they could pay bills,  put food on the table and send you  to college.  Life was not easy, yet it never stopped Mike's parents from working hard.

Having an ambitious mother, demonstrated that you do whatever you need to do to get by. 

There was one woman who made it possible for the Pierres to start a new life in America. Not everyone has an angel, but Margarite had Mrs. Lovell. 

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers and the roles they play in our lives. And my guests answer the question, 'are you who you are today because of, or in spite of, your mother'? You'll be amazed at what the responses are.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal relationships with their mother.

Some of my guests include Baritone Singer Christopheren Nomura, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist Tim Wacker, Activist Kim Miller, Freighter Sea Captain Terry Viscount, Film Production Manager Peg Robinson, Professor of Writing Montclair State University Dr. Bridget Brown, Tammy Steckler, attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter Mark Heingartner, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist, Maryellen Valyo Cole and Roger Evens, Property Manager in New Jersey and so many more talented and insightful women and men.

I've worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. I've interviewed so many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.

A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created my logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".
