710 Sell teammates
Jimmy threw Hammer with the others, and picked up the magazine that he had just thrown on the ground, he only had these two Glock magazines in his body, and he couldn't go and buy another magazine after firing a shot, so it was still necessary to recycle it, as for the bullets, there were things in the equipment bag in the car, so don't worry about this.
Looking at the situation at the scene, Jimmy thought for a moment and beckoned Hope to the side, "Hope, you are responsible for the case this time, don't let them rob the case in Salt Lake City." ”
Hope: "I see, what's there to pay attention to?" ”
Jimmy: "Investigate how many more people they kidnapped, so many people can't just kidnap one or two people to survive, the point is that they didn't ask for a ransom from the girl's parents, which means that they theoretically profited from human trafficking. I see? ”
Hope thought for a moment and nodded, "Understood, I'll take control." ”
Jimmy: "It's not okay not to give them a single place, so it's up to them to investigate their homes, and if there's an interrogation to find out where the girl is hiding, let them join in the rescue." ”
Hope nodded, seeing that Jimmy was no longer talking, and he returned to the group to look at them again.
Jimmy is really going to be the shopkeeper, just now he deliberately didn't kill these people just now just to find out where they might be hiding the girl, just like he said, so many people can't rely on only one or two people to feed, doing this kind of thing is to make money, without money to make them might as well be honest gangsters.
To be honest, Jimmy really wanted to kill them, if it weren't for the follow-up clues, he would at least be like a human being......
Looking at the ashtray on the table next to him, Jimmy took it directly, took out a cigarette case from his pocket and lit one, although it was indoors, but the bar would definitely not open today, and no one should complain about him if it smelled of smoke.
The local police came quickly, although the gunfire was very short just now, only a few seconds, but the density was very large, even in the inside of the bar, it is estimated that some people heard it in close range, just now when Hope opened the door to look outside, there were already onlookers outside, but they did not approach, they were watching from afar.
Now that the police arrived at the scene, Hope showed their ID and asked them to check it and then began to set up a scene blockade, and after the ambulance came, he pulled people directly to the hospital, of course, everyone was accompanied by police officers to ensure that they would not run away while they were being treated in the hospital.
The agents and forensics officers from the Salt Lake City office came quickly, and this time it was really a big case, Jimmy and they shot directly at the bar on the first day they arrived, and five people were shot, which was a bit excessive.
On the way they came, they had made a lot of mental preparations, but after seeing the bar environment and listening to Hope's review and narration, they looked at Jimmy's brows, this Nima is still human?
Jimmy's action just now was not too difficult, but the reaction speed and shooting accuracy were too amazing, one magazine was all shot out, all four people on the scene were put down, and they lost their ability to resist, the key is that all four people were alive at the time and did not die, and the fifth person just shot and hit the thigh outside the back door, and did not hurt the torso at all, obviously this was deliberately controlled by him, that is, if Jimmy wanted to, these people would all be dead in the second or two he burst into the bar.
Everyone came out of Kuanti Academy, and some of them had served in the army before, and it was not easy to make such a record, and even said that none of the people present could do it except Jimmy.
The scene investigation was handed over to the forensic department, and Jimmy and several detectives rushed to the hospital, where the police officers guarding several suspects were liberated and could go back.
However, they arrived at the wrong time, just in time to get the bad news, two seriously injured people could not be saved, and there were two fewer suspects they could interrogate.
The number of police here in Boyce City is still a little less, and many things are still inconvenient for Jimmy, but now there is no choice, Jimmy and they have arranged a rotation order to take turns guarding here, and those who are temporarily resting have gone to the hotel to rest, and only after everyone has finished the operation and is sure that there is no danger can they be transferred to the interrogation room of the police station, or dragged back to Salt Lake City.
The Forensics Department moved quickly, the on-site inspection actually didn't take much time, and they also took the time to go to the hospital to collect fingerprints for all the wounded and dead, so the next morning Jimmy and they got the complete identity information of the five people, and also got a good news, when the Forensic Section was inspecting the bar, they seized a large number of individual small packages of methamphetamine from the secret grid of the bar, which is not only a gathering place for their group of kidnappers, but also a stronghold for fixed bulk goods.
These gains can directly make a few people related to the bar squat in prison for a while, of course, this is their bad luck, under normal circumstances, no one will search the secret compartment in the bar, and this is a very safe place.
Salt Lake City agents and local police raided and inspected the homes of several suspects, but Hammer was the only one who had no registered residence in the local area, and no one knew where he lived until he spoke.
After checking the residence of several other people, they did not find much abnormality, but in one of them's house, they found multiple cash bags, hidden in a compartment behind the wardrobe, which was dug a hole in the wall to put things, as for weapons, these people have more or less one or two pistols in their homes, and it is almost certain that they are all ghost guns.
They were still not satisfied with these gains, and after the hospital determined that the three people could leave the hospital, they directly arranged for everyone to return to Salt Lake City with the suspects and the evidence collected, fortunately, the two places were not far apart, although it was more torturous, but they still succeeded in letting the three unlucky people sit in the FBI interrogation room.
"Instructor Yang?" Jimmy and Hope were about to go to the interrogation room when a passing agent suddenly shouted, and Jimmy turned his head to look, "You called me?" ”
"It's really you, instructor, I graduated from Quantico two years ago and was assigned to Salt Lake City." The agent shakes hands with Jimmy.
Jimmy shook hands with him awkwardly, ended the conversation with a casual casual chat, and continued to walk towards the interrogation room.
Seeing that Hope was a little puzzled, Jimmy said as he walked: "A few years ago, I was seconded to Quantico as a firearms instructor at the academy, and by the way, I explained some cases, and some cases were handled by me and included in the academy textbooks. ”
Hope stopped directly and looked at Jimmy's back, is there such a big gap between this person and people? Jimmy looks like he's 30 years old, how did he do it?
Jimmy: "Huh? Turning his head to look at Hope, Hope shook his head and continued walking, interrogating first.
Hammer is Jimmy's main target, this time the three of them were divided into three groups to interrogate separately, Jimmy and they took Hammer directly, this goal is impossible to give to others.
The regular interrogation ended quickly, of course, the main thing was to determine his identity, ask him basic information, place of residence and other questions, these questions were not difficult and necessary, and the other was to confirm the identity of the other party, and then it was troublesome, Hammer did not have frequent prison information in the FBI's system, but it was obvious that he was familiar with the interrogation process, requiring that a lawyer must be present to answer questions, and he had not yet appointed a lawyer, and he needed to be provided free of charge by the government.
They are now in the interrogation room of the Salt Lake City office, and some things are very troublesome, and they can only suspend the interrogation of this old fritter Jimmy who is familiar with the process and tell the office to help find a lawyer.
There wasn't much point in delaying the time, there wasn't much the lawyer could do in the present, and when Jimmy and the others started the trial again, they threw the evidence they had in front of Hammer, although it was all dictated, but the evidence in the hands of the FBI was enough to submit to federal prosecutors.
The witness is Mark from Washington, DC, and the physical evidence is the rescued girl over there, and the cabin in Karin, Missouri, where Hammer's fingerprints were also detected, as well as the clothes of the girl in Washington, and in the pile of clothes in the corner, there were blood stains on the clothes, although it has been a little long, you can still do some comparisons to compare with the girl, which is to blame for not dealing with the things left over from before in time, otherwise it is really difficult to make direct evidence for Hammer.
The free lawyer assigned to Hammer also gave up after hearing the relevant evidence provided by Jimmy, he asked Jimmy to leave, turned off the surveillance, and then talked to Hammer for a long time, and finally the lawyer talked to Jimmy on behalf of Hammer, hoping to reach an acceptable result.
Jimmy shook his head: "Organized crime, human trafficking, kidnapping, illegal detention, child abuse, rape, violation of the sexual rights of minors, assault on federal agents, these crimes plus at least 100 years in prison, how can it be so easy to negotiate a deal." ”
Jimmy stood up, straightened his suit and said to the lawyer, "You'd better talk to him again, the deal needs to be mutually satisfied, and the current situation is that he doesn't even know what the outcome is facing him." Do you think federal prosecutors would drop such a clear case if just shooting me in a bar would be at least a 10-year sentence for assaulting a federal agent, or if I identified myself? ”
Jimmy patted Hope, the two turned around and left the reception room, the lawyer sighed, and could only go back to the interrogation room to talk to Hammer again, it is true that the charges that Jimmy just described are clear, this is still determined, and whether there are other charges that have not been determined is not clear for the time being, and if you want to get a substantial reduction in sentence, Hammer must have to pay a lot.
Jimmy and Hope left the reception room and walked to their temporary workstation, "Hope, you talk to them later, I need him to provide new clues and criminals, and get rid of all the people in their line." ”
Hope: "It's unlikely, the more he confesses, the more charges he charges, it shouldn't be much to gain." ”
Jimmy: "Let's try to get some good, and if we can't talk, I'll continue to put pressure on them." ”
Hope: "yes, I see. ”
It's still the trick of the good guy and the bad guy, Jimmy's toughness is what Hammer and they have witnessed, and the threat made by such a person in person is a real threat, far stronger than the sense of oppression of ordinary FBI agents, but in the past, this kind of nasty transaction could only be done by Jimmy himself, and now with Hope, a senior agent from the headquarters, he can worry about it.
In addition to his normal investigation, Hope also needs to supplement the detailed report at each stage, this report will not be the final report, but it can be used as the basis for the final report, and when the time comes, a part of these reports will be directly extracted, and then retouched, and the final report can be composed.
This is also what Peter has explained before, Jimmy and Peter emphasized that there must be someone who can write reports, of course Peter knows what Jimmy means, so all the reports in the process of their investigation are completed by Hope, and Jimmy can rest easily.
For Hope, when writing the report, he can also sort out Jimmy's case-handling process, as well as some operations that seem miraculous to him, which also makes Hope feel as if he has returned to the Quananti Academy of Sciences, especially when he learns that Jimmy has been able to return to Quantico as an instructor, and the cases he handles can be selected as detective textbooks, this is definitely a genius-level person.
Jimmy's request this time is still very difficult to do, after all, if you want Hammer to dig a hole for himself, to bet that Jimmy can contact the federal prosecutor for them to make a deal, this kind of thing is definitely not done by another person, and now those charges are enough to make him squat in prison for the rest of his life.
But fortunately, after Jimmy and him had a cordial conversation, Hammer finally spoke, their kidnapping gang was basically wiped out by Jimmy's group this time, in fact, they got together this time to prepare to end the activities during this time, and everyone dispersed to start resting.
They don't do this all year round, each time they do activities for a few weeks and a month, they will make a fortune by handling a few cases, they will hide for a while, and act again when the matter has stopped, so Hammer will leave Karin City several times a year, and each time he is very careful to change his anonymous phone and then contact everyone to ensure that his whereabouts are safe.
This time his mistake was a widow he knew with a child, perhaps because he was older, he actually had the urge to unite with Emily, and this operation was to make a good plan for the rest of his life.
They're not just in this one business, kidnapping and human trafficking are the businesses they gather in, and other people have other businesses, like distributing illegal drugs and stuff, and they've been doing it for years in this part of Utah.
In order to make his life better, Hammer decisively sold the others, especially the owner of the bar, the bartender at the bar, who was a hawker in Boyce, taking advantage of the geographical advantage of the proximity to Arizona to cooperate with the other party to sell illegal drugs.
Hammer wouldn't admit that they had kidnapped more people, of course, but the clues he confessed were enough for Jimmy to get a little more out of it.
Jimmy is very unhappy with this outcome, but Hammer is troublesome for not confessing where they imprisoned the kidnapped girl or providing information about the person they recently kidnapped.
Jimmy thought about it for a moment, and talked to the other two groups of interrogating agents here in Salt Lake City, and he directly took the clues provided by Hammer to the bartender in the bar.
The evidence provided by their insiders was enough to destroy his will to resist, and Jimmy finally got an address from this man's mouth, in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Boyce, where there was an underground warehouse that they had modified to hold the kidnappers, and it was quiet enough that no one would pass, and they used it for a long time.
Sure enough, they still had to do the work of selling their teammates, didn't they get the result they wanted, Jimmy and the others immediately set off for the factory, and finally found the entrance to the underground warehouse in one of the rooms, and rescued the last girl who had not yet been transferred.
It was a mess, there was a lot of blood, and it looked like there were a lot of very bad things going on here, so Jimmy and the girls took the girl to the hospital for a check-up, leaving the scene to extract relevant information from the forensic department. (End of chapter)
