#TheFBIFiles #TrueCrime #DrugDealer
Season 4 Episode 11: In the 1980s, Florida's cocaine imports were among the highest in the nation and regional territories were enforced with intimidation and murder. One dealer would stop at nothing to keep FBI agents from building a case against him and began targeting the government itself.
The FBI Files is an American docudrama that takes a look behind the scenes of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's crime laboratory.
Real FBI cases are recounted through reenactments and interviews, due to the sensitive nature of the show, viewer discretion is advised.
“He came in voluntarily…spoke politely…gave us his story about being at the restaurant…showed us the receipt…even had the waitress confirm that he was there and what time he left…his alibi was ‘Air Tight’….so therefore…”He Was Our Number One Suspect”…had me rollin…lol
Lol
Man was trying too hard.
In a damn fool with no yes I got my receipt the show I was here that don't mean a goddamn thing you could have your boys in the restaurant when this guy showed up not at your head that's the mother f***** owe me money the guys know what you talking about he didn't even know the guy's bodyguards with that he didn't know that but after he left the restaurant his ass got followers and got blown away who else could have did it it happened when he was at the restaurant and guess who did it couldn't have been nobody else because if it was somebody else they will kill them before he got in the restaurant why would they follow him when he get out the restaurant it was the inside restaurant job the guy was sitting on the inside that did it it don't take long to put no positive together use your head that alibi came up with don't sound right anybody can get a God damn receipt what the hell do that prove that means you were there that don't mean you conspiracy to carry out the murder because you did kill nobody you carry it out cuz conspiracy got somebody else to do it God damn y'all so damn stupid you think the FBI and the police are stupid they're not stupid they going to put it together so no later
Yeah I guess he thought them people were very stupid to believe that restaurant job because you was at the restaurant so what that don't
mean that you didn't carry out the murder what happened he had his friends in the restaurant sitting at another table that's that motherfucker the old me money he nodded his head and said that's him the girlfriend probably didn't know it was going to be a murder in the restaurant she probably wasn't paying attention when he was nodding his head at the other guy it's not a funny he came to the restaurant he didn't get killed all of a
sudden he left the restaurant and he got killed all you got to do put two and two together he had a friend in that restaurant with him when he call his sidekick his ride or die boy sitting at another table this guy come in and didn't even know he had a friend in the restaurant sooner he left his stupid ass out the door go follow him go kill him he owe me money he's the only drug dealer that could have killed this guy
The best thing I tell anybody I wouldn't tell you no lie I'm 54 years old everybody on Facebook know I believe in telling the gospel truth if you know you did something you killed somebody don't go volunteer information to the FBI and the police because it going to make you look suspect what you do if you know you kill somebody did something wrong
you stay on the run and let them come after you they got to prove you did it you don't come up there and give nobody no volunteer no God damn information that you know you guilty you look like a damn fool and you think these people are stupid all they got to do is put two and two together he's lying to us about an alibi that Alab won't even hold up in court that's a damn lie he know it
@@ToomasKiisk Yep.
In another video they were convinced that 2 suspects were guilty of a murder because they had the exact same story for their alibis.
FBI files is one of the best true crime shows ever
The 90s had the best TV shows!
@@NathanChisholm041 agreed
Even the reruns are still good.
"A man was unpacking boxes in his new home ... when suddenly a car drove straight through it". Sounds like a pretty typical Florida night.
Sounds like a typical american "home" made of plywood and some drywall. Try that in Europe and you gonna need an armored vehicle.

this series does a really great job of re-telling and re-enacting the stories they air. no added bits of fluff to make longer episodes. well done The FBI Files.
I agree. I don't need to see the relatives weeping. Of course they're sad, they're relatives.
@@blaynedavis9617 I know! I sit here and cry enough 😢
Hi there yes it's I agree with you all the way
FBI file is one of the greatest show in tv ever made 💕
Yep it’s better than television at the moment ..... don’t you agree .....lol
How is that “lol” funny?
@J Cf12 lol👍😁
I agree 👍
I don't watch the news anymore I watch what I won't to watch
Tv has been gone for 20 plus years. Ever since "reality" tv got more attention and better ratings than the news. So they made the "news" "reality" tv.
I'm from Naples FL, but lived in Ft.myers for years and never heard of this case wow. Thanks for the video. Glad he got what he deserved.
I'm from the Philippines, i love watching these videos. Keep it up, salute to the FBI agents and other law enforcement agents.
Thank you for saying this, Sharon! The FBI is the hardest-working agency in America. They are amazing at what they do!
It's difficult here Sharon when you are a American
Waking up to a new episode of FBI Files always is a good day!
“New”
This is old ass hell..
@@adrgold423 he put nee because it doesn’t say he edited
@@Jolenesmart1980 your now lead detective
The FBI Files hasn't been "new" since it went off the air in 2005. The episodes are all over the internet. Good thing you're just watching and not a detective - just sayin'.
It's not often you hear about someone bullying government officials like this. Jeff was nuts.
Man really bullied them Feds 😮
He was evil, but you have to admit. That was a genuine outlaw right there. Blowing up the DEA's office?! Damn.
I’m not defending what this man did but you can’t say the dea is anywhere good because they litterally are the worst they make society so much worse and awful for people
He only de it to try to protect his own ass... He was only about him,but he apparently liked that broad he was on the phone with... Many of mans follies.
yeah it's kind of badass. obviously it's not cool cos real people died and were at risk, but if it was a video game it would be cool
He was a loser.
He was like a bad guy from movies.
Fun fact: Skip to the very end of the video, hit replay and avoid ads :)

@@kennethwalton2380 try going to the very end until the last 5 seconds and make sure your autoplay is off.
I love these shows,I was born in 73 and grew up when most of this stuff was happening,Plus the FBI DEADLIEST SHOOTOUT that happened my grandparents lived right where that happened and I was there visiting when that took place,there was so much gunfire you couldn't hear someone yelling at you my grandfather kept yelling at me to come inside because I stood in the yard watching it
There isn't a decade where this "stuff" wasn't happening. Press is fickle though.
Yeah that Miami shootout was crazy
You one brave hombre.
Wow seriously
@@dw4481 I think what OP meant was the specific events mentioned in the show. Not violent crime in general.
*They don't mention it (at least not yet), but there's no way he knew which witnesses to kill, and no way he knew to run when the indictment came down, without him having dirty cops/etc on his payroll. This should have been a corruption case as well.*
I agree with you. Those get left out for spectacle.
thats what i was thinking…especially when he threw the bomb into the window of the DEA building…there were dozens of windows on that level he could have thrown that…but he threw it into the very office which just happened to have the filing cabinet containing all of the evidence against him….way way too much of a ‘coincidence’ for me…dirty cops for sure!
You're right bro, I read something on a Lee county police website when I was searching up for him, there was a detective's quote on the page. Saying they had two Lee county police officers who were on the payroll of Jeff Matthews and that's how he was able to do shit. They don't tell you that on the FBI files. True story look it up
True, how else would he know who ratted on him. Must have had a guy on the inside.
@@BossmanRat there's another episode with a gang killing witnesses. They knew who the witnesses were because legally the court has to disclose the evidence against them
Why wasn't the death of the contractor investigated? His last job assignment / last seen alive was at the pizza parlor
Because it wouldn't have been identified as a homicide at that point. All authorities could have known was that the man disappeared. It would have been a missing persons case.
@@johndickson9542 - So? You still investigate it, and tie it to Matthews later. I'm sure someone reported the guy missing.
@@DS-wk1kn Maybe they did investigate it as a missing persons case. We don't know.
Police dont like doing missing persons,they"ll show up
later,yada, yaya, remeofber this is the height of the cocaine
cowboy sh8t, they had their hands full.
Great question.
Sensible move not to give your star witness any police protection.
I was thinking the same thing. Their star witness should have been protected at least or in the witness protection program. Same thing happened in the Indian businessman case.
This guy was actually smart. Damn a drug dealer, killer and a government bomber. This guy had all the fbi files episodes. Lol
Lol
The amount of youtube ads are more scary than matthews
They should be investigating youtube like they did to Mathews ...Hehe
LOL You are so right!!!

City Confidential and the FBI Files are the two best shows on crime
"Violent drug dealer", as opposed to the tranquil and well-mannered ones you normally see.
oh yeah that's right.
Some drug dealers are actually not violent. Also, non-violent does not mean “tranquil and well-mannered”.
Imagine moving into your new house and someone just drives a car right through it.
you only see this in tom&jerry
I wonder if Nationwide would be on your side for that one.
I lived in Venice Florida... a car drove thru our living room one night. No joke, there are some serious retards in Florida.
@@katemaloney4296 Would that be a car insurance or a home insurance claim?
@@katemaloney4296 😂😂😂😂
thank you for uploading!
I think that the authorities in thiscasewere overconfident about their dealings with Jeff matthews. Starting with their inability to protect an important federal witness, and culminating with their failure to anticipate the degree of violence that Jeff Matthews would go to defend his drug trade territury. The FBI, DEA, and ATF did not take their jobs, and Jeff Matthews seriously. I understand that they were constrained by the laws and regulations, but i cannot help but get the impression that the authorities were very passive and reactionary rather than pro active in their dealings with the criminal.
I totally agree with you.
Yes 1000%
Note To Self: put pillars out front of home to stop dead bodies from driving through to the backyard.
It will go in between the pillars.... 🤷🏻
fn zombie attack 🤣🤣🤣
Dealer: How in the heck did you know it was me? I had everything in order!
Detective: Exactly. You tried too hard.
yeah right
Dam this guy blowing up DEA headquarters while constantly evading FBI, DEA, ATF, etc... yes he's definitely elusive to say the least.. 🏃♂️💨
LOL I thought that was a Boss move. And he had another truck waiting to do the same but he stopped it. They better be glad he confused to that or some more people would be dead. These cops are dumb saying that drug dealers dont kill people. Yes the fuck they do. How do you think they stay in the game and come up. They kill their completion off. He should of never called that girl. Rule number 1 in the drug game dont fuck with hoes. Just keep it moving.
He opened his first pizza shop when he was 18 and blowing up dea HQ when he is 25 how things change lol wow
He's not showing in the federal inmate locator nor the Florida department state of corrections
@@Booth1667 he is I've checked it it's Jeffrey Matthews double t, he's in Coleman federal pen
South Fla. in the 80s was wild!
Love to watch FBI files but lately I’ve been watching Crime watch daily they show’s actually surveillance video and other crime scene pictures which made the show interesting 🥰
Yea I like that too but that narrators voice is cringe
His narration is disturbing. Some how, I find Bill Hader parody on dateline Keith Morrison more soothing this guy.
To skip all the ads, drag the progress bar to the end and then hit replay. If you're on a playlist, drag progress bar past yellow dots and then back to the beginning.
You're welcome.
Wait, it's 2020 and some people still don't know about Adblockers?
Thank you
Need more and more of these episodes. Very enjoyable
Thank you for this new episode
This isn't new...I've seen this one years ago.🤔
Man, what a crazy story. I live close by there and it's nuts to think like something like that happened in my lifetime so close to where I live.
Do you remember It happening or know people that knew him?
I would consider moving
he is probably dead now. too bad. such a creep.
You’ll get over it, champ. Crime is everywhere. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
You think it's so special because it happened near where you live? Crime like this is EVERYWHERE.
Ah the "Cocaine Cowboys" days. Growing up in Florida in the 80s and 90s was really something else...just listen to 2 Live Crew, Poison Clan, Miami Boyz, DJ Magic Mike and the like and they'll tell you lol
Memory lane...
@@ivana_333 in The Miami hurricanes whooping behinds
One thing I can say that this guy was a fucking gangster for real
Once you put murder in the game, you quickly go out of business
But you can't be a drug lord for a long time without killing someone
@@Boubson damn right.
You don’t know much, josef. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
I am glad that Jeff Matthews was caught and sent to prison. He is extremely dangerous and such people must not be free.

I don't watch t.v. any more great real life F.B.I. PLEASE KEEP EM COMING.
I am ashamed to say that I go to sleep listening to this stuff. Well not that ashamed. In fact I'm over it now so I guess I'll watch another.
You'll be addicted to gambling with the amount of ADVERTS

My goodness why don't you give your asset a fully protection so that he completely give you F.B.I.a complete information about the crimes.
I’m continually amazed by the people subscribing just to dislike every upload
LOL
They're miserable basement dwellers.
you don't need to subscribe...and the thinking I have is their giving the criminals the thumbs down. Sometimes it's hard for me to give a thumbs up because of the content being we generally don't condone,as far as murder...that's the thumbs 👎. Need i go on?
DUDE!!!! You know that even GOD is gettin a little tired of your shit when you blow up the DEA's office trying to destroy the case file for your case and you destroy pretty much everything BUT that file
I agree it's pretty crazy the whole DEA building was destroyed but the files were all still intact.
Im Jym Calstrum... Farmer Head of the FBIs New Yawk Awrfice.

Jim Kallstrom, former director of the FBI Field Office in New York City, died at the age of 78 on July 3, 2021. So sad! 😂😂

I'm from Lee county and never heard of this before it's kinda surreal to hear about stuff like this happening where I'm from
Get over it... It happens EVERYWHERE...
The ease with which this dude found hitmen was surprising.
This was a good episode!
These series are so good I often think that the actor playing the murderer is the real culprit.
lmaooo facts
New Yark office!! Cross between an Australian and American Accent = Boston Accent. Lol
😂😂
Kalstrom just happens to be at every crime scene despite being retired. 😂
I have been wondering too😅
What a waste for the lives he took and of his own live.
We need most episode i love to watch it interesting video
Great investigation

They should have put him in the Super Max facility to live out the rest of his life with limited or no human contact!
Maybe he is.... 🤷🏻

This guy was literally raking in the dough with his 🍕 enterprise.
Witty 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes but now he will never be able to spend it
Love these FBI documentaries.. curious as to why 3rd witness was not placed into Witness Protection immediately after knowing the other 2 witnesses were executed 🤔🤔🤔
Shooting the contractor just to test his silencer is plain cold.
It sounds like he maybe also owed him money or was evading taxes and he was going to rat. Otherwise there are easier and less risky ways to test.
😂

funny thing, all the shell casings that they're calling .22 bullets are actually either a 9mm or a 40 cal. certainly not a 22
Sheel casings?

@@davesmith-mz6qg haha you can edit it to change it by using the three little dots on the right
@@Jolenesmart1980 better?
The gunshots don't sound like .22 either. Too loud
They need to make a movie about this kid, he was on his job for only being 22, pizza business, 3 bodies and bombing the DEA office aswell, I can picture the fort Myers sunset for the movie setting. Get it made!
Dude was a freaking G he literally burned the DEA office to ground I've never heard anything like that far.
Honestly this dude could've been a successful business man. To be that in the drug game at 22 takes knowledge and skill, despite it being illegal. He clearly knew how to make money, just the wrong business really.

L.kkk

I guess I'm not the only sicko waiting for the newest episodes.
i love the FBI files am watching from Antigua 🇦🇬👍☝️
Has anyone found themselves watching some of the same fbi, or crime, shows more than once lol
Yes that true,i see thomas dillon as a murderer and then i see thomas dillon as a fbi agent
Oh yeah, usually I go to sleep just hear the narrator's voice 😋
Oh yes
Michael Vukovic yes but what I do now is write down the episodes in a book I have. Let me know if anyone else does this. Lol
🙌 lol
And someone on the Grand Jury told Matthews Franken was going to testify. Someone who was paid to do this.
Jeff had two lee county people on the payroll.
I will never understand what people find so appealing in the drug lifestyle... No amount of money warrants living a life of looking over your shoulder 24/7.
just like @patrick Spragg above me said; it's the lifestyle. Looking over your shoulder 24/7 to ordinary people like you and me is ridiculous and not worth it. Ask yourself why do drug addicts continue to use drugs while their life is crumbling around them? For the drug addict it's a combination of the horrible feeling of withdrawal and the lifestyle. I imagine for the dealer who doesn't personally use drugs it's a combination of the high they get from making lots of money and the lifestyle. All those things together create a cumulative effect that distorts their capacity for reasoning.
I stumbled on this show cause I couldn’t find anything to watch on tv.thank god
Incredible episode ! Great story ! Loved it ! If only Jeff Matthews used his superior intelligence to to good...
46:30 lol... 5 or 10, 15 minutes away. I don’t know why that was so funny to me. Like dude how far?????
Funniest thing I ever heard 🤣🤣🤣
Hilarious ; guys a moron
That dude was nutz!!! My family was good friends with the Karen family, and my dad had to go with Craig's brother to identify his body that night. I was young but I'll never forget that night.
Who did Jeff Mathews have behind him to be moving like that. Was all his Family gangster or something. How long was Craig's debt before Jeff set him up, normal people wouldn't do shit like that cus they want the money from the person, killing him makes no sense.
Wow what a boy scout 🥴🥴
The drug dealer was violent and happy they arrested the person with the drugs. It would be a good idea to put cameras in the house
Working with FBI could be a great career
No it's not if you're a genuine good person, the FBI is as crooked as the CIA and if you don't believe, just look at Ted Gunderson a former FBI on youtube
Even its founder J. Edgar Hoover was a crook himself. He would find dirt on people and used it to blackmail these individuals.
Working with the FBI will get you dead. Just ask the informant trying to get his sentenced reduced.
If you ever smoked weed you are disqualified
He trusted and got flipped by a fat chick. Big mistake. They are SO easy to bribe.
Fat? Wow, what's fat a size 8?
I agree its been a nightmare
I love to watch this everyday and i lean so many things
at 26 years,such a young energetic person,anyway I am 28 and what I only need is an isuzu lorry to assist me do my work and live a life,crime is a no,
I hope that you get the isuzu lorry soon I also need one to do some business.
@@jeananderson7416 we shall get it,bro
What a deadly man he was! He should have been given a death penalty.
absolutely…. bombing a Federal building…..should have gone down with Timothy McVeigh
I don't understand why he never got the death penalty. He murdered people, blew up Federal buildings, and of course made a living selling cocaine. I thought Florida was a place you didn't want to break the law, since it has the death penalty. Now, he gets free rent, recreation, and free medical (and probably a T.V., and maybe even a game console to relax while in prison). He will probably escape since he knows people on the outside, and has some intelligence, as in building a pipe bomb.
I love the fbi it's the best watch it every day can't get enough of fbi
Love this
This is how I go to sleep these days lol
Me too.
How is that “lol” funny?
God bless the police.
Good Episode 👍🏻
That poor Festiva, 3 episodes and crashes and its still going lol. I miss mine...
And just like that, beauty killed the beast again
😁😁
Everytime 😂
It takes a lot of intelligence to make a bomb. If only these people put their energy into productive endeavors instead of crime they would be very successful and might I add, free.
A pipe bomb is SIMPLE to construct.
We need new videos!!!! Thank u!!!!!!
My man :) just on time
Ahh, the good ol days when the fbi did thier jobs and stayed out of politics.
Thank you FBI for keeping our streets safe God bless
I can't believe you didn't protect Franklin... even I saw that coming😡😤😫
Funny to think of Ft.Myers as a drug town.I’ve always thought of it as a retirement and spring training town.
The entire state of Florida is a drug town 🤣
