Louis Ziskin revealed that at the peak of his ecstasy operation around 2000, he oversaw the shipment of an estimated 30 to 40 million ecstasy pills. Alongside this massive volume, Ziskin once held $30 million in liquid cash, with one million stashed casually in a Tiffany box used as a footstool in his living room. His criminal enterprise was extensive, involving sophisticated logistics, including convoys in Europe designed to evade law enforcement. Ziskin also recounted extravagant purchases like a Lamborghini Diablo Roadster during a getaway in the South of France. Eventually, Ziskin was arrested and charged as a kingpin under federal law, facing harsh pre-trial conditions due to a 1996 legal provision that allows presumed guilt for those facing federal sentences over ten years. The charges included a continuing criminal enterprise indictment, marking a significant downfall from his lavish lifestyle.
