As Someone from a fishing town, the reason fishermen aren't rich when hauling in $100,000+ loads of fish is the high overhead. Payments on 6 figure boats, paying your crew's salary, as you aren't doing it alone, fuel (boats burn a lot of fuel), maintenance on the boat and fishing gear, a rainy day fund for more expensive boat troubles like major engine trouble, then after all that, whatever is left is the salary of the boat owner. Then that has to be used to pay all their household normal people bills. Then the retirement comes from selling your boat and equipment when your ready, assuming your not giving the boat to your kid to continue in your footsteps. I know a local guy who sold his boat and fishing license for $2.2 million at 55.

Nothing will cool you down better than a story about a raging fire on a boat! 😂 I get what you mean, though. The severity of this crime is absolutely bone chilling!
22:03 Dunno, that situation can be kind of a weird one. Like, when you're woken up by something unexpectedly, sometimes your brain misfires and doesn't interpret it correctly. I remember when I was a freshman in college, I got woken up by this loud noise, and in my 2AM fugue I kinda just assumed it was a concert featuring really bad, loud, repetitive techno. It was only when the RA came around banging on the doors that I realized it was actually the fire alarm lol. So it's kinda possible the guy assumed that was part of a dream or something.
Bail in the US works like this: With a $1 million dollar bail, a person goes bail bondsman. The person charged with a crime pays usually 10% of the bail to the bondsman in exchange for them being on the hook for the $1m if you skip trial. The bondsman keeps that 10% no matter what. So $1m bail will really cost the person $100k.

I know someone who is engineer on a fishing boat. He's declined multiple times to allow The Deadliest Catch onto the boat because it would add to the stress and drama that already exists. Running such a boat does pay quite well, though as someone already pointed out, the overhead eats up most of the gross earnings. That person didn't even touch on the bite taken out via taxes! Besides, as with anything else, if a person isn't wise about saving and economizing their earnings, nothing will guarantee that they stay rich, no matter what kind of windfall they receive.
Another topic you might be interested in for the Casual Criminalist is the massacre in Manley Hot Springs, another small Alaska town. A lot of those people who want to disappear into Alaska wind up there, because it's at the end of the road.
Another great entry to help me get through Monday! One day we'll get a make up tutorial and cooking channels from Simon....then his TH-cam empire will be complete!!!!
On day in the late 2000’s my dad was telling old ship stories. Oceanic cable work. He was telling about how they would have to transmit weather reports and they would get reports in from shore. They would routinely get their reports parroted back to them. So, my dad is talking about this one big storm they were in and talking with Scotland on the radio. They get their second oldest weather report parroted back like it’s new information and are suggested to turn back and race to shelter. Dad said ship had to report back they were at 90% max turns on screws, facing into the weather, being pushed backwards at 8 knots and in swells twice the height of the ship. No way were they making a turn. He is trying to describe how the weather was when he dropped “ What’s the name of the Clooney movie with him on a fishing boat? It was the same storm.” Shook me because Dad never talked about work and to find out he kept the fact he was in one of the largest storms recorded on the Atlantic, to himself for years, was astonishing.
@@mrsd2950 yeah it is, I'm still on the fence about though leaning really towards the ex Nazi guy. I've watched it twice and still think there's just something the authorities are missing. I definitely don't think it was the survivor though, I've had serious head damage and was barely able to function nor do I remember what happened and I didn't have brain fluid leaking from my nose lol
$105K is a great haul, however think of it as gross and not net profit. After paying for boating expenses, crew salaries, misc equipment costs, left with 40K. Plus, can't count on that kind of haul every week. And salmon fishing is limited to May through November, so 6 months of the year is hardworking and other 6 months is live off of accumulated wealth or have another job somewhere else (fracking, ice road trucking?) Plus don't forget this is 1982. Good years for fishing. Then March 1989 - Exxon-Valdez oil spill- everything changed... my old neighbor used to live up there. Said they went down to 15% of what they were able to catch because of the need to change fishing spots, shipping lanes, overfishing
Jenn you are a master at video editing at the "where's my crystal meth?!" Moment I had to stop the video I was laughing so hard! Simon and Callum you guys make these amazing to listen to. I love you, Simon!
I'm absolutely loving this channel! So bored with a lot of the true crime stuff on TH-cam, let's face it, most of them are all about shock tactics and or a case that you have seen done by so many that you could actually write a script on that subject matter without having to google! Fantastic set out, informative, witty without being disrespectful, think I'm going to spend the rest of my weekend playing catch up!
Simon is very naive about the US justice system: in a country where both the DA (ie the prosecution) and the local sheriff are elected positions, the maxim that it is better to let a guilty man go free than imprison an innocent man does not apply. Not making an arrest in a widely publicized case makes people look bad and may endanger their chance of re-election.
Since the sheriff admits that there was a thriving drug trade going on, IT makes perfect sense the 'the good sheriff, and his department, were players in said drug market. This also shows how law enforcement WILL choose a person at random to charge and prosecute, leaving it to the accused to prove his innocence, while law enforcement declares the crime 'solved'.
You have to realize these are small towns where everyone knows everyone and if everyone thought peel had something to do with it than he probably did. The cops and detectives are trying to do their job and %99 of criminals in jail were rightfully convicted. I'm guessing peel and the one deck hand who went missing decided to kill them and take their giant stash of drugs.
Reminded me of the Warren Zevon song "Wanted Dead or Alive" When the police guy said "he looked like 500 other people" (paraphrasing) as there is a line in that song that goes somehing like "Now all I'm trying to do Is find a peaceful place, But they say I have an outlaw face" Which, remarkably sounds like this guy Jon Peel...
Trying to find a fugitive in Alaska would be like trying to find a mouse in the desert. It is simply a huge expance of wilderness where people go missing all the time.
The guy who was like "Oh yeah, I heard shots and screaming but I went back to sleep" just brought my dad to mind. He could do that. Once I woke him saying there was a fire in either the woods or the parking lot behind our house. His reply was, "Tell me if it gets closer." When his ex's water broke he went, "Maybe you just peed yourself." (Yes, yes she hit him.)

My only critique is that you talk so fast combined with your accent makes it a little hard for me to understand at times, I’m American. Lol. Thanks for all you4 hard work.
One of my favorite games to play is to try to remember where I was on the date in question. I started college on 7 September 1982. Since it was the day after Labor Day, and grade schools didn’t typically start until the following week back then, it wasn’t odd for the family to be together. Also, the autumnal equinox hadn’t happened yet, so there was still longer days of sunlight at that latitude.
So just a few points as I have spent the last 3 decades living near Stonington, MAINE where we fish for 4/5th of the Lobsters in the world. My son has done this. Here are a few things you might not know. Most fisherman do Not have a brand new state of the art boat. Most have crippled backs from hauling things during 12 hour days. Originally, for centuries they drank. Then they were prescribed painkillers. Eventually the Dr. Stops handing them out. I have no info on Alaska, but most fisherman here are not very wealthy. The costs deducted from the haul are extensive. Families rarely go out as a family unit on the boat. Maine has a tragic opioid epidemic. I would presume it was coke back in the 80’s. Cartels want customers in every possible town. Our 3,500 islands and endless shorefront make it nearly impossible to monitor a boat bringing drugs to shore. My son told me that at 3:30 am (Boats head to sea by 4 am) there is not a drug you can think of that isn’t on the docks. I have had conversations with our Police about this. They are completely aware. I asked why they couldn’t simply go down tonight and round up all the people and all the drugs. That is not how our Legal system works. You need warrants etc. It is also a small community and word travels at lightning speed. Problematic items on your boat would be over board the minute anyone got out of a police car. It does not take much to anger cartels and that is their MO. Make a mistake and we take out you AND your family. My best guess is that the rowboat guy is a red herring. I’d say there was some problem with a shipment. The Captain normally met another boat out at sea, took product on board and offloaded it. Something went wrong. The Captain naively thought no harm would come to him in front of his family and he could meet up with a mid level manager, explain and fix the problem. The Captain was a tiny and easily expendable pawn. The cartel sent a powerful message to all of Alaska, do not screw up or this will happen to you. At worst, the rowboat guy might have been a dealer who got a warning to get the hell home, made an excuse to row in and kept his head down. Real names are never used and discussion is minimal on a need to know basis. So even if the guy knew it was cartel he would have had no way to say who precisely they really were and he knew speaking up or cooperating in any way would get him and his family killed. Best option was to go silent and stay silent even if he had to do jail time. So the family member was right. He knows more than he is saying and he is protecting his life AND hers by keeping silent. The only way to keep a secret is if only 1 person is alive and the other dead.
I remember that nicer boats usually had the family living aboard. I worked up there on a dock in Kenai in '90. I remember one with a family onboard, remember the name still. I got the captain to bring it over to our dock. They were Russians. He only had room to throw on a bowline and he went in to negotiate prices. The tide turned and his big boat was turned and jammed sideways around the end of our floating dock. It was during the short Twilight between sunset and rise. Makes it difficult to see and tell what is moving and what is stationary. I was driving in a skiff full of captains crews from their moored vessels and heard yelling and metal snapping, everybody stood up at once and damn near got us all sunk. I got them sit down as I tried to figure out what was going on and how I could get rid of my passengers quickly as I saw my two Navy buddy's who'd ridden up to Alaska with me go down as the gangway fell and the floating lower dock and fuel dock started to get ripped free. I was confused but then figured it out. I dropped my passengers onto the fuel dock and throttled to the unloading dock and put my bow into it and started pushing it back into place, but the force of the building tide upon the sideways vessel was too much. The It got free and I was able to push the dock entirely into position and my buddy's tied it into place and the gangway was made to be serviceable, but I was getting my ass kicked trying to tow the huge Russian boat with the family and no Captain, back to the dock with its bowline. I had to do it in reverse. The outboard motor mount snapped it's hold down, and I had to wrestle the motor down and hold it down while maintaining full reverse throttle. Just when I'd had it and probably was going to fail, our Supervisor came flying through the air with the tail of his coat like a cape. He landed into my boat and swatted me aside, though it ultimately took both of us to tie it back on. So maybe his family lived aboard with him. Sounds like drugs. Lot of really bad people and even worse cops.
I haven't even watched the episode yet, just commenting that I am surprised how much I'm enjoying this show. Hoping to see some of my all time favorite weird cases on here eventually. Like Dorothea Helen puente.

Alaska has recently considered the death penalty..........for run-on sentences. This kid was a hire on and very suspicious from the go. The boat was based in Blaine, Wa. as are MOST of the big boats working Alaska.
@@thedwightguy very few boats or commercial fishing gigs in alaska are actually Alaskan based.
Everything moves slower than a glacier back home, I can't imagine the death penalty ever moving at a pace that would be effective
@@TheSintheathe death penalty is incredibly effective.
When implemented it is successful every time at preventing that criminal from ever reoffending..::….which is exactly the point of having it.

11:56 the fuel on the fishing boat was likely diesel fuel, which is basically useless as an accelerant unless under pressure or extreme heat.

Simon’s family chilling in a different room: “Where’s my crystal meth?!”
They probably figure he’s doing an episode about the famous drug producer Walter White
22:03 Dunno, that situation can be kind of a weird one. Like, when you're woken up by something unexpectedly, sometimes your brain misfires and doesn't interpret it correctly. I remember when I was a freshman in college, I got woken up by this loud noise, and in my 2AM fugue I kinda just assumed it was a concert featuring really bad, loud, repetitive techno. It was only when the RA came around banging on the doors that I realized it was actually the fire alarm lol. So it's kinda possible the guy assumed that was part of a dream or something.
Also, where I live, hunting happens all the time. We ignore gunshots.
"...why not just write the restaurant a check?"...they don't take them because that's a good way for the restaurant to get stiffed.

@@stefanschleps8758Might also be because he's never picked up the tab.....
Yep. Out-of-state checks from crews that are headed back out in a few days. I see why they insist on cash.
Bail in the US works like this: With a $1 million dollar bail, a person goes bail bondsman. The person charged with a crime pays usually 10% of the bail to the bondsman in exchange for them being on the hook for the $1m if you skip trial. The bondsman keeps that 10% no matter what. So $1m bail will really cost the person $100k.

This is true, even in my town. My uncle used to be a cop, he quit after a few years. Cops get bonuses for every ticket, citation, arrest, suspect that goes to jail or prison, and case they close here in the USA.
@@Styxswimmer Actually it is the "everyone is guilty of something, so it does not matter if you're innocent of THIS crime, you're guilty of something so you deserve prison" Well except cops... they are NEVER guilty of anything...

I know someone who is engineer on a fishing boat. He's declined multiple times to allow The Deadliest Catch onto the boat because it would add to the stress and drama that already exists.
Running such a boat does pay quite well, though as someone already pointed out, the overhead eats up most of the gross earnings. That person didn't even touch on the bite taken out via taxes! Besides, as with anything else, if a person isn't wise about saving and economizing their earnings, nothing will guarantee that they stay rich, no matter what kind of windfall they receive.
Another topic you might be interested in for the Casual Criminalist is the massacre in Manley Hot Springs, another small Alaska town. A lot of those people who want to disappear into Alaska wind up there, because it's at the end of the road.
Callum, your writing is absolutely smashing. Simon, you're quite the personality and add such lovely flavor to the story that's addictive.
Haven't watched one of these on TH-cam in a while as have been listening on Spotify. The graphics and transitions are very snazzy!

Most restaurants in the US don't accept checks. You have to use either cash or a credit or debit card.

Here's me. Enjoying the heck out of another casual criminalist while I clean my house. Cheers for the fantastic content!
Another great entry to help me get through Monday! One day we'll get a make up tutorial and cooking channels from Simon....then his TH-cam empire will be complete!!!!
On day in the late 2000’s my dad was telling old ship stories. Oceanic cable work. He was telling about how they would have to transmit weather reports and they would get reports in from shore. They would routinely get their reports parroted back to them. So, my dad is talking about this one big storm they were in and talking with Scotland on the radio. They get their second oldest weather report parroted back like it’s new information and are suggested to turn back and race to shelter. Dad said ship had to report back they were at 90% max turns on screws, facing into the weather, being pushed backwards at 8 knots and in swells twice the height of the ship. No way were they making a turn. He is trying to describe how the weather was when he dropped “ What’s the name of the Clooney movie with him on a fishing boat? It was the same storm.”
Shook me because Dad never talked about work and to find out he kept the fact he was in one of the largest storms recorded on the Atlantic, to himself for years, was astonishing.

$105K is a great haul, however think of it as gross and not net profit.
After paying for boating expenses, crew salaries, misc equipment costs, left with 40K.
Plus, can't count on that kind of haul every week. And salmon fishing is limited to May through November, so 6 months of the year is hardworking and other 6 months is live off of accumulated wealth or have another job somewhere else (fracking, ice road trucking?)
Plus don't forget this is 1982. Good years for fishing. Then March 1989 - Exxon-Valdez oil spill- everything changed... my old neighbor used to live up there. Said they went down to 15% of what they were able to catch because of the need to change fishing spots, shipping lanes, overfishing
Gotta love it when you find channels like this and you can spend weeks binging.
This happened almost 40 years ago, and this sounds like a handsome pay for that time.
I really needed this. Takes my mind off of my stress filled life.
Ahhh yes nothing reduces stress more than the murder of women and children lol
“That would have been a great Segway to a VPN sponsor”

Watched two episodes and I am HOOKED on the casual criminalist now.
Simon your work rate is incredible. 10 yt channels and there all good and there's probably another 10 in the pipeline
Simon is very naive about the US justice system: in a country where both the DA (ie the prosecution) and the local sheriff are elected positions, the maxim that it is better to let a guilty man go free than imprison an innocent man does not apply. Not making an arrest in a widely publicized case makes people look bad and may endanger their chance of re-election.
Simon probably does know. He is a big liar. You will never learn real history from this jerk.
Sad but true
That’s the swamp. The whole system is rotted from the core. No wonder blacks are still systematically being targeted.
Better to imprison an innocent man than mess up your conviction record and lose your shot at moving into the Governor's mansion.
Unless it's california, where they just let everyone go now that Kamala is no longer looking for cheap labor.
Since the sheriff admits that there was a thriving drug trade going on, IT makes perfect sense the 'the good sheriff, and his department, were players in said drug market.
This also shows how law enforcement WILL choose a person at random to charge and prosecute, leaving it to the accused to prove his innocence, while law enforcement declares the crime 'solved'.
You have to realize these are small towns where everyone knows everyone and if everyone thought peel had something to do with it than he probably did. The cops and detectives are trying to do their job and %99 of criminals in jail were rightfully convicted. I'm guessing peel and the one deck hand who went missing decided to kill them and take their giant stash of drugs.
I love how Simon was like ahhh yes the ganja and then chillum went immediately to coke and speed 😂 NOT in the same wheel house lol
Reminded me of the Warren Zevon song "Wanted Dead or Alive"
When the police guy said "he looked like 500 other people" (paraphrasing)
as there is a line in that song that goes somehing like "Now all I'm trying to do
Is find a peaceful place, But they say I have an outlaw face"
Which, remarkably sounds like this guy Jon Peel...
“Stop giving tips to criminal, Simon” 😅😅😅
Trying to find a fugitive in Alaska would be like trying to find a mouse in the desert. It is simply a huge expance of wilderness where people go missing all the time.
That type of fish boat is called a "Purse Seiner" ,... not a Trawler
"Noone likes a child murderer"...Simon, the grandmaster of understatement
The guy who was like "Oh yeah, I heard shots and screaming but I went back to sleep" just brought my dad to mind. He could do that.
Once I woke him saying there was a fire in either the woods or the parking lot behind our house. His reply was, "Tell me if it gets closer."
When his ex's water broke he went, "Maybe you just peed yourself." (Yes, yes she hit him.)
I think most people might honestly
I can see why he's her ex now
Really enjoyed this episode, thankyou!
Could you do an episode on Louis Hastings, its a facinating Alaskan masacre situation. I think its right up your alley.
Thank you Simon. I love your presentations. Also Magic Spoon is awesome but like super expensive.

One of my favorite games to play is to try to remember where I was on the date in question.
I started college on 7 September 1982.
Since it was the day after Labor Day, and grade schools didn’t typically start until the following week back then, it wasn’t odd for the family to be together.
Also, the autumnal equinox hadn’t happened yet, so there was still longer days of sunlight at that latitude.
Get it smart girl! 🤓I didn't even THINK of all that. T.y.
Twisted firestarter 👌🏻nice Callum
Love the beard. Love the English. Love the story`s. Love the sarcasm.
So just a few points as I have spent the last 3 decades living near Stonington, MAINE where we fish for 4/5th of the Lobsters in the world. My son has done this. Here are a few things you might not know. Most fisherman do Not have a brand new state of the art boat. Most have crippled backs from hauling things during 12 hour days. Originally, for centuries they drank. Then they were prescribed painkillers. Eventually the Dr. Stops handing them out.
I have no info on Alaska, but most fisherman here are not very wealthy. The costs deducted from the haul are extensive. Families rarely go out as a family unit on the boat. Maine has a tragic opioid epidemic. I would presume it was coke back in the 80’s. Cartels want customers in every possible town. Our 3,500 islands and endless shorefront make it nearly impossible to monitor a boat bringing drugs to shore. My son told me that at 3:30 am (Boats head to sea by 4 am) there is not a drug you can think of that isn’t on the docks. I have had conversations with our Police about this. They are completely aware. I asked why they couldn’t simply go down tonight and round up all the people and all the drugs. That is not how our Legal system works. You need warrants etc.
It is also a small community and word travels at lightning speed. Problematic items on your boat would be over board the minute anyone got out of a police car.
It does not take much to anger cartels and that is their MO. Make a mistake and we take out you AND your family. My best guess is that the rowboat guy is a red herring.
I’d say there was some problem with a shipment. The Captain normally met another boat out at sea, took product on board and offloaded it. Something went wrong. The Captain naively thought no harm would come to him in front of his family and he could meet up with a mid level manager, explain and fix the problem. The Captain was a tiny and easily expendable pawn. The cartel sent a powerful message to all of Alaska, do not screw up or this will happen to you.
At worst, the rowboat guy might have been a dealer who got a warning to get the hell home, made an excuse to row in and kept his head down. Real names are never used and discussion is minimal on a need to know basis. So even if the guy knew it was cartel he would have had no way to say who precisely they really were and he knew speaking up or cooperating in any way would get him and his family killed. Best option was to go silent and stay silent even if he had to do jail time. So the family member was right. He knows more than he is saying and he is protecting his life AND hers by keeping silent. The only way to keep a secret is if only 1 person is alive and the other dead.
I guess Jeremy Kyle is the UK version of a mix between Maury & Jerry Springer
1:30 True, no call for help is possible if they are all dead. But also, no rescue is required, so I guess it works out in the end.
Talk about a great way to start da day
I remember that nicer boats usually had the family living aboard. I worked up there on a dock in Kenai in '90. I remember one with a family onboard, remember the name still. I got the captain to bring it over to our dock. They were Russians. He only had room to throw on a bowline and he went in to negotiate prices. The tide turned and his big boat was turned and jammed sideways around the end of our floating dock. It was during the short Twilight between sunset and rise. Makes it difficult to see and tell what is moving and what is stationary. I was driving in a skiff full of captains crews from their moored vessels and heard yelling and metal snapping, everybody stood up at once and damn near got us all sunk. I got them sit down as I tried to figure out what was going on and how I could get rid of my passengers quickly as I saw my two Navy buddy's who'd ridden up to Alaska with me go down as the gangway fell and the floating lower dock and fuel dock started to get ripped free. I was confused but then figured it out. I dropped my passengers onto the fuel dock and throttled to the unloading dock and put my bow into it and started pushing it back into place, but the force of the building tide upon the sideways vessel was too much. The It got free and I was able to push the dock entirely into position and my buddy's tied it into place and the gangway was made to be serviceable, but I was getting my ass kicked trying to tow the huge Russian boat with the family and no Captain, back to the dock with its bowline. I had to do it in reverse. The outboard motor mount snapped it's hold down, and I had to wrestle the motor down and hold it down while maintaining full reverse throttle. Just when I'd had it and probably was going to fail, our Supervisor came flying through the air with the tail of his coat like a cape. He landed into my boat and swatted me aside, though it ultimately took both of us to tie it back on. So maybe his family lived aboard with him.
Sounds like drugs. Lot of really bad people and even worse cops.
It's our Boi with the Crime!
