Ep. 9 - Here's what happens when you look like a drug dealer
from Dead Before Deadline · host STP Productions
It's January of 1989 and Columbus Dispatch reporters Robin Yocum and Cathy Candisky have a pretty clear picture of how the multi-million-dollar scam was supposed to work. What they don't know is the whereabouts of co-conspirators John Hawkins and Gene Hanson. Until . . . At 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 29, 1989, American Airlines Flight 150 from Acapulco lands at the Dallas-Ft. Worth Airport. As the passengers are filing off, customs officials see a man coming off a flight who looks nervous and is in a big hurry. Customs officials think he's a drug dealer. He's not, but the running is about to be over for Gene Hanson.
