Owen Hanson, once a promising athlete at USC, shared his extraordinary journey from college volleyball player to international drug trafficker in a candid interview on VladTV. Hanson grew up in Southern California and earned a volleyball scholarship at USC but was redshirted during his sophomore year, derailing his athletic ambitions. Desperate to improve, Hanson turned to performance-enhancing steroids, smuggling them illegally from a veterinarian in Tijuana—a risky move that ignited his thrill for illicit activities. Soon, a weight room encounter led Hanson to switch sports when a USC football coach noticed his newfound strength and encouraged him to join the team. However, his life took a darker turn as he got deeply involved with drug cartels, eventually becoming a major kingpin smuggling cocaine across international waters and borders. Hanson's compelling story is featured in the Amazon docuseries *Cocaine Quarterback*, produced by Mark Wahlberg, detailing his rise from athlete to cartel mastermind.
