Chapter 296 The William Mas Gang and the Discovery of the Suspect

 Special Investigation Team, office area.

 Hand was pulled, Luo An followed Mona's guidance and looked at the computer.

In the computer interface, there is a young man wearing a federal Transportation Security Administration (TSA) uniform. He is one of Nassef’s men and is now dead.

 Seeing that the other party died in a street shooting, Luo An frowned slightly:

"what happened?"

Mona tapped the keyboard a few times to jump into another computer interface and explained:

“According to the FBI’s internal information, this guy helped the solitaire bring the souvenirs onto the plane, but the Federal Transportation Security Administration discovered something was wrong.

This man is also a talent. He found out that the administration was suspicious of him and prepared to escape. However, before he could take any concrete action, he was silenced by the monopoly behind the scenes. "

 “Tsk tsk tsk.”

Lacey next to her came over. After hearing what Luo An and the two had just discovered, she smacked her lips and said:

“When the person below dies, it’s natural to choose someone higher up to protect you.

So, this case was actually the work of a certain dealer in Los Angeles? "

 “High probability.”

Luo An replied, and then patted Mona on the shoulder:

“Let’s take a look at this case and see who the suspects are.

 Then cross-compare the interpersonal relationships with "Wild Dog" Vidocq to see if there are any overlapping guys. "

 “OK.”

Mona nodded and started typing on the computer keyboard. Roan turned around and waved the tape in his hand towards Lacey:

“Let’s check these surveillance cameras to see if there are any suspects or other clues related to Vidocq’s death.”

"no problem."

Lacey copied a tape and started working in front of her computer. Luo An sat in front of another computer and repeated the same steps with Lacey. While waiting, he asked:

“By the way, Lacey, did the forensic and trace examination department find anything else?”

“The trace examination department found nothing, but the forensic doctor has a guess.”

 Lacie replied while checking the surveillance footage in the videotape:

“The medical examiner said that the undigested food in Vidocq’s stomach looked like a set meal for two.

 So Vidocq must have dined with someone during his lifetime, and the other person was most likely a woman. "

　　　…”

 Luo An remained silent. Although this clue was described in words, an indescribable smell still hit his face.

As time passed, the three of them quickly found some useful clues.

 The first is Mona. She followed Luo An’s instructions and successfully found a suspect through cross-reference.

“This guy’s name is Ryan. He has a juvenile record when he was ten years old and has been in prison.”

Mona transferred a photo of a white young man to her computer, shook her finger and said:

“He is 28 years old and is one of the suspects in the previous case of killing Nassef’s subordinate.

 He had previously been in prison for assault with a firearm. Ryan and Vidocq had lived in the same cell and were fellow inmates.

 Ryan was successfully released from prison a year ago. According to information from the FBI's Los Angeles Division's Organized Crime Investigation Section, after he was released from prison, this guy joined a medium-sized gang called the Wilmas in northern Los Angeles. "

Luo An took a look at Ryan's photo. He was a guy with unruly eyes, and then asked:

“What is the main business of this gang? What is the connection between Vidocq the Wild Dog and them?”

“The William Mas Gang has a wide range of businesses, including strip clubs, exclusive products, gambling, small-scale money laundering, etc. Judging from the information within the Organized Crime Investigation Department, Vidocq has no connection with this gang on the surface. , not from this gang.

 But Ryan has been promoted to a minor leader in this gang, and Vidocq has always kept in touch with him, and the relationship is still very good. "

“He was promoted to a small boss in less than a year. He is indeed a talent.”

 Putting aside his position, anyone who can rise so quickly in the gang is not an ordinary person.

Roan motioned to Mona to type out the photos of the main leaders of the "Williammas Gang", and then asked Lacey:

 “How are you doing here?”

“I found a surveillance video of Vidocq and a woman kissing on the street.”

Lacie moved her chair and showed Luo An the surveillance video behind her. The video was showing Vidocq kissing a mature-looking woman in cool clothes on a street corner.

The two kissed for a moment, and Vidocq's cell phone probably rang, so Vidocq stopped talking and took out his cell phone from his pocket.

Vidocq then made an apologetic gesture to the woman, waved his hand to stop the taxi and sent the woman away. Finally, while answering his cell phone, he walked towards the community where he rented.

Seeing that there was time in the video, Luo An immediately asked Mona:

“Can you find out whether this call was made to Vidocq? Who is the other party?”

Mona immediately started investigating on the computer after hearing this, and soon shook her head:

“Sorry, the other party is using a burner phone.

However, I have sent a specially crafted email to that burner phone. As long as the other party opens the email, I can immediately locate the other party. "

 “Well done.”

Luo An praised Mona, moved his chair and ran to his computer, showing the clues he found to Mona and Lacey.

The surveillance video content in this tape is very simple:

A taxi that can be seen everywhere in Los Angeles stopped opposite the community. A guy with a hood whose face could not be seen got out of the taxi. After a while, he returned to the taxi and drove away.

 Mona and Lacey were a little confused at first after watching the surveillance video, but they soon discovered a problem:

"time!"

Lexi pointed to the constantly beating time in the lower right corner of the surveillance video and said:

“The time this guy got out of the car was less than five minutes before the death of Vidocq the Wild Dog, and the time he left the community was less than ten minutes before the death of Vidocq.”

 “That’s right.”

Roan nodded. Vidocq died in the early morning. At this time, there were not many taxis in this less affluent area.

He checked more than a dozen surveillance videos, and only this one showed a taxi.

Moreover, the taxi driver covered himself tightly with a hood. When he left here, his pockets were much bigger than before, which was really suspicious.

Mona took the mouse and zoomed in on the surveillance video. After seeing the taxi's license plate number, she immediately started investigating and soon found out the driver's identity:

“Hogan Haley, 39 years old, has been in jail for eating flour and wounding with intent, and has been driving this taxi for three years.”

 “Good.”

Luo An raised his hands and stretched his waist hard, then stood up and said:

“Lacey, bring a few SWAT team members and invite this driver to our special investigation team as a guest.”

 “OK!”

Lacie covered her mouth and smiled, then turned and walked into the equipment warehouse.

 “Mona, come with me to chat with Anthony’s father Nassef.”

Luo An then picked up from the table the photos of the main members of the Wilhelmath gang that Mona had just asked to print, and said:

“Let Nasef see if there’s anyone he knows in there.

 Then let’s see whether we arrest only some members of the gang this time, or whether we should arrest all the gang members. "

That night, at 6:30, in a single-family apartment in a community in west Los Angeles.

On the sofa in the living room of the apartment, Anthony's mother sobbed softly. Although his father Nassef did not shed tears, his eyes were red and his face was full of sadness.
