He told his youngest son they were never coming back to the States. That was over two decades ago and nobody has seen him since. But this was no ordinary man running from his problems. John Paul Sr. was a two time FIA World Endurance champion, winner of the 24 Hours of Daytona and the 12 Hours of Sebring, and the first father to win both of those legendary races alongside his son in the same year. He was also a Harvard educated Wall Street genius who walked away from a fortune to go racing. And behind all of that success was a dark secret that would eventually consume everything he built. John Paul Sr. ran one of the largest marijuana smuggling operations in American history, importing somewhere between 50 and 100 tons of Colombian marijuana through the Bahamas to Florida during the late 1970s and early 1980s. The money funded his championship winning JLP Racing team and those iconic baby blue and yellow Porsche 935s that dominated IMSA competition. But when a former associate became a federal witness, Paul shot him five times at point blank range in a Florida parking lot. The man survived. Paul fled to Switzerland with a false passport and was eventually extradited back to the United States where he served 13 years in federal prison for attempted murder. The paddock joke that IMSA stood for the International Marijuana Smugglers Association stopped being funny when you realized just how accurate it was. What makes this story truly chilling is what happened after Paul was released from prison in 1999. Within months he met a 53 year old woman named Colleen Wood through a personal ad. She sold her condominium, gave him the money, quit her job, and moved onto his boat. By mid December 2000 Colleen had vanished without a trace. Her bank accounts were drained through ATMs by unidentified women who said a man named John gave them the cards. But Colleen was not the first woman to disappear after entering John Paul Sr.'s orbit. His second wife Chalice Paul vanished in Key West Florida back in 1981 and was never seen again. No investigation was ever conducted. Two women gone. No bodies ever found. And the man at the center of both disappearances simply sailed away and has never been located. This documentary traces the complete arc of John Paul Sr.'s extraordinary and terrifying life from his childhood in Nazi occupied Holland to his rise on Wall Street to his championship racing career to his criminal empire to the shooting that sent him to prison and finally to his disappearance as a fugitive wanted for parole violation. His son John Paul Jr. who refused to testify against his father and served 28 months in federal prison for that loyalty died in December 2020 from Huntington's disease without ever hearing from his father again. If John Paul Sr. is still alive today he would be 86 years old. The FBI wishes to question him. The U.S. Marshals accept tips on his whereabouts. And somewhere out there or maybe nowhere at all the Old Pirate remains one of motorsport's greatest unsolved mysteries. SOURCES : Road and Track Oral History of John Paul Sr. by A.J.
