  • We sat down with convicted drug trafficker Michaella McCollum as she releases her new book 'You'll Never See Daylight Again'. She recounts the years spent in a Peruvian prison, her struggles with re-integration and how she intends to speak the truth in the hopes of deterring other young women from following in her footsteps.

    Having worked with addicts for 30 years she behaved as a typical addict at the time of her crime. Young, naïve and an easy target for the big fellas in charge. She made a big mistake as we all do at one time or another. You either repeat your mistakes thinking there will be a different outcome or you learn your lesson and try to do better. She's chosen the latter. Good on her for turning her life around.

      The most sad thing was she did have thoughts about the alternative - going home or calling her mom before she went trough the airport with drugs, but she didn't. Being so young, under the influence (which means you can't really feel yourself), naive, easily convinced and in denial of the consequences became extremely dangerous for her. Sadly she won't be the girl to do that.

      @@daz3434 So you think a 20 year old knows how much misery and death drugs cause? The only mistake she was worried about was when she got caught? Everything she describes about how she felt during the trip and how she just wanted to have fun and all that riding around for days doing things she didnt want to do just so she would look like a tourist and how she felt worse and worse as the time went on... and how she didnt know it would be peru and didnt know how much drugs it would be.... I was in a similar situation at 15 and I know first hand how you can get caught up and have no clue past, "yep, I could get in trouble for this" how bad your getting in and the deeper you go the more you panic.

    The way Peirce Morgan treated her on his morning show was just ridiculous. I am certain she was not lying when she said she didnt know she would be leaving the country she was in until she got on the plane. I am certain she didnt know how much drugs she would be carrying and I am certain she didnt know she was actually a scape goat set up to get caught.
    The guys who got her to do this.... that is their job. Get a very young high party chick to fall for him and then once she is smitten with him get her to agree to making a lot of money for something he claims is really simple that ends up being extremely worse than claimed and for some people doing it is easy for them because they have no conscience. But for some people you just stress the entire time. When you are young you go through with it realizing its worse than you were told slowly over time while in the middle of it and then your fear is what ends up getting you caught.
    The way Peirce Morgan acted toward her... he will always be the biggest jerk on this planet in media. He is an a$$.
    Yes she knew she was wrong. But NO she didnt know how much she would be carrying.
    NOBODY in their right mind would agree to carry 2 suit causes full of cocaine back from Peru for 5 grand. NOw, you offer me 200k? I MIGHT think about it... if there is a better way then all spread throughout my luggage.
    But for some rich smug asshole who never has to worry about paying a bill in his life ever again to judge someone who has nothing for doing something wrong... Go screw yourself you arrogant clown.

      @@mrmac6356 It comes down to intent for me. I don't think she thought she'd be ruining anyone's life. At that time of her life, Michaela was doing a shitload of cocaine, along with literally all of her friends, and they were having a blast (youngins can pull off that lifestyle for a while). She was also high at a party when she agreed to it. And even if she was thinking clearly, she could have rationalized that if the customers didn't take 'her' drugs, they'd take just take someone else's. As far as the money from the book, Michaella McCollum said she plans to use profits to pay back her family after her Peruvian imprisonment put them in extreme debt.
      Do you really think women have an easier time in life? I don't. And, yes, it is usually some right bastard man dealer looking for a poor sucker to do their dirty work -- it's fact, drug dealers are more often men and they prey on naive people, women and men, looking for 'easy money'. And finally, male drug mules who get caught and go through a hellish prison experience also get plenty of sympathy and well-wishers, once they get themselves free and back on their feet. Just check out the comment sections on episodes of 'Banged Up Abroad'.
      But Mr Mac says a categorical 'no' to second chances and people's ability to redeem themselves. That's a harsh way of thinking in my view.

      ​@@mrmac6356 I watched all of the episodes of the BBC show 'High" plus a couple of interviews, and I've never heard her "play victim". She took responsibility for her very bad choices/behaviour and didn't make excuses. Sure, when they were arrested in Peru the girls concocted a story of forced coercion, but that's just called trying not to spend 20 years in a Peruvian jail. Talk about an 'oh shit' moment! She managed to get parole after serving less than half her sentence, not by playing victim, but by owning up to her crimes and convincing the parole officers that she'd changed. According to the BBC 'High' series, she *became* a model prisoner, working hard to be a positive force in daily prison life and helping others in multiple ways during those brutal two and a half years. I find that sort of strength admirable when many people would have sunk into despair and self-pity in such circumstances.

    Her conviction for drugs smuggling has nothing to do with being a catholic being brought up in a protestant area . From what I have seen on RUclips, she currently has a TV interview campaign going on to promote her book. The basis of the book seems to be self gain/ pity, and she uses the usual selling points of lesbian sex in the gaol ,violence etc in order to make the book more attractive.

      She's a remarkably strong woman who not only survived a helllish prison, but came out stronger. Her story is one of resilience and redemption. *That* is why people are not only drawn to her story, but drawn to her. With her looks she could have just married into easy money, but she earned a university degree. I greatly respect her tenacity.
