To be honest… we dont know what was happening in those 19 months. The paper could have just slapped 19 months on there to glamorize the “effort” put in by the agencies.
Who knows, maybe it started 19 moths ago when a patrol officer got a tip and from there, maybe one detective did some light investigating for 10 months before it turned into a full blown investigation.
maybe a bunch of office cops were sitting around pretending to work on this for 18 months, getting paid, and then they said they wanted results so they made it as far up the chain as they could go in 1, which is like 2 levels up.
I don’t agree with the “war on drugs”, but I can’t feel sorry for these people. They know what they are doing is illegal. I also recognize many of the names in there and I’m not surprised by any of them.
Deff more dope than they listed there … that was just what the list of “local” guys got popped with (hamburg,lakeview,angola,etc.)
it all started when that guy got popped on the t-way in 07 … he started the rat fest … he was caught with a few birds (kilos) … but was out of jail 4 hours later
Ya I know a handful and went to HS with Matt Hoak as well. I worked at Hoaks in HS on the water. Great times. I am interested to hear what people close to this have to say. I guess there are still a ton of names yet to come out.
Fuck, that’s not what I want to hear. I’m trying to get a hold of a few friends that might have been involved. Hopefully they kept their asses out of trouble.
