You steal something from there, put it on a thumb drive and try to pull it up.

And all these tactical teams are hitting all these different locations at six o'clock in the morning, all over the city. We only got 17 of the people in the first day. Oh, wow. So there was a bunch more people over the next couple of weeks that we were working on rounding up. And that was the most nerve-wracking time.

With a sniper rifle. Jeez. So yeah, it took a couple of weeks. Most of them got rounded up within the following week-ish because it was still an aggressive thing. When that roundup came out, there was a lot of attention brought to the case, news conferences and everything else. There was a lot of patrolmen and everything else that were also actively interested in finding some of these guys.

So we got lots of help. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. It was a nerve wracking time though. Happy, sad too, for the guys that you get to know and that you really like and knowing that that's the end of that is also kind of nerve wracking too. So what was the result then?

All the rest of them pled and shared information. Of the ones that went to trial... I testified on behalf of several of them also in terms of behalf of their character, because they were people that I thought deserve to be in the conspiracy.
