 Nelson on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/montanatheprophet/ Catfish on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/ryse_credit_repair/ On this episode of Honor Among Thieves, host Nelson Rodriguez Jr. sits down with Catfish, a former kingpin who ruled the underground pill trade in Houston, Texas during the late 90's and early 2000's—long before pill mills became notorious in Florida. Catfish shares his unbelievable journey from the heights of running a multimillion-dollar prescription pill empire to the brutal reality of serving hard time in the Texas prison system. Key Highlights: -Early Rise to Power: Catfish dominated Houston’s underground market, making hundreds of thousands of dollars per month selling prescription pills. -Federal Takedown of His Plug: When his supplier was indicted in a massive federal case involving 10 million pills, Catfish stepped in and became the undisputed king of Houston’s pill trade. -The Law Catches Up: Eventually, Texas law enforcement busted Catfish, and he was sentenced to 40 years in state prison. Unlike many of his peers, he narrowly avoided federal charges. -Life in Texas State Prisons: Catfish describes the brutal, sweltering conditions of serving time in Texas prisons without air conditioning—where summer heat could reach unbearable levels. -Second Chance at Freedom: Despite his 40-year sentence, Catfish was released on parole after serving just 4 years, offering a rare glimpse at redemption after a fall from criminal power. From fast money and street power to prison survival and parole, Catfish’s story is a raw look into the realities of the drug game, the justice system, and what it takes to survive when the odds are stacked against you.
