I Was Falsely Labeled a $20 Million Kingpin

Joshua (Yosh) Markell, an Amazon reseller and family man, describes being raided, jailed, and branded a "modern-day mafia" boss over a stolen-goods scheme he says he had no part in, and how faith, family, and sheer persistence carried him through years of fighting to rebuild his name and his life.⁣
