From cocaine trafficker to infiltrating North Korea - Jim La Trache

From cocaine trafficker to infiltrating North Korea - Jim La Trache

One Minute Remaining - Stories from the inmates

In life there are people that do incredible things then there's Jim La Trache. 


Childhood and adolescent years were difficult for Jim. Due to challenging personal circumstances, Jim struggled with school from an early age and ended up in foster care. Having never properly learnt to read or write and being unsupported at such a critical time in his life, Jim felt he didn't suit education, and that education didn't suit him.


Jim would go on to join the French Foreign Legion, become a cocaine dealer and do two stretches in prison, until he would turn his life around and be invited to go undercover for a documentary where he would infiltrate one of the worlds most brutal dictatorships, North Korea.


This is the story of Mr. James
