Some of the conversations are in Romanian.

I have no idea what they're saying.

We had Romanian translators here.

It was bad.

It was all bad.

And Benny's sitting there just looking very deflated.

And I said, Benny, listen, now at this point, I want to talk to you about what's going on here.

And we want to solicit your help.

My hope is that you can go home tonight and spend the night with your family.

And we would love for you to work with us, not against us.

We want you on the government bus, not under the government bus.

I said, you have the right to remain silent.

Go through it all.

He looks at me and goes, I'd like my attorney.

Benny was not interested in cooperating.

He was not going to testify against anyone.

He wasn't going to set anyone up.

And so we take Benny to jail that night.

And then the next morning at like four in the morning, we go out and we just arrest everybody, everyone else, all the building.

Because we were hoping we could kick that down the road and have Benny make some better cases for us.
