Los Angeles Legendary Sleuth Chapter 767 - 362: Arrest

Luke contacted the judge and submitted evidence, formally applying for an arrest warrant for the UPS courier, Brando Salvalto.

Although the Los Angeles Police Departnt might not be able to arrest all mbers of the smuggling organization, anyone who dared to commit cris in Los Angeles must be brought to justice.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, FBI Agent Alfie Imma arrived at the Robbery and Murder Departnt.

Luke invited her into the office, joking, "Agent Imma, you are indeed punctual."

"Sorry to have kept you waiting.

That guy was tougher than we thought, and we had to put in more effort."

Luke gestured for her to sit down, "I hope the wait was worthwhile."

"Of course, after so patient and friendly interaction, Carlos agreed to cooperate with the FBI and told everything he knew.

Captain Lee, you can ask directly."

Luke said, "Was Natasha murdered?"

"No."

"Who is he really?"

"He belongs to a xican gang called 'Bossita,' which engages in cris such as human trafficking and smuggling.

Although he's young, he's a focus for developnt within the gang and has a group of subordinates to assist him with tasks."

Luke asked, "Why was he hiding around Natasha?"

"Because the Bossita gang, no, to be exact, many gangs involved in human trafficking despise Natasha imnsely.

Natasha's main occupation is a jiu-jitsu instructor, not exactly an intelligence expert, and she might even be less professional than so reporters.

But the major difference between her and journalists is, journalists seek news, just news.

After reporting on human trafficking once, they might shift their focus to other news, not clinging onto the gangs involved."

Alfie Imma paused, then continued,

"But Natasha is different. At the age of 12, she and her parents attempted to smuggle themselves into Los Angeles, but her parents had an accident during the process, and only she made it to Los Angeles.

The incident greatly impacted her, and at 18, she began investigating the truth behind her parents' death. Using her mories and so investigative leads, she learned the truth about their deaths during the smuggling."

"How were they killed, and why did she survive?"

"Midway through the smuggling, a gang mber wanted to take away her mother. Her father was killed trying to protect his wife, and she was lucky to survive.

The smugglers, all gang mbers, would do anything for the maximum profit.

Young, attractive girls would be sold, those in better situations would be extorted for money, and so would be forced into trafficking drugs.

Even if all these gang mbers were killed, none of them would be wronged."

Alfie Imma returned to the main subject, "Although Natasha is not a professional intelligence officer, she has persistently investigated smuggling organizations for over a decade, visiting welfare hos, relief stations, and the Latin community to console and investigate leads about the organizations and those persecuted by them.

For over a decade, she never gave up.

It's like a marathon race. Many run faster than her, but they leave the track for various reasons.

Only Natasha keeps running on this track. Although she's not the fastest, her goal has never changed.

She has provided a lot of information and evidence about the smuggling organizations, and for this reason, many such organizations have targeted her.

The Bossita organization is just one among them.

These smuggling organizations also compete among themselves. Carlos's infiltration around Natasha was not only to monitor her.

It was also hoped that by using her to provide information to the FBI, they could strike at other smuggling organizations to monopolize the smuggling industry."

Luke was sowhat surprised, "Is the competition that fierce?"

"Even more brutal than imagined."

"Since the FBI has been investigating smuggling organizations, which organization do you think killed Natasha?"

"The Gonsede Gang, founded by a man nad Manu Gonsede, who was originally a xican fugitive before smuggling himself into Arica, where he joined a small smuggling gang responsible for receiving and settling smuggled individuals.

This man was cruel and quickly made a na for himself, gathering a group of followers.

In an operation against smuggling cris carried out by the FBI and the Border Patrol, his gang was severely impacted, but he used this opportunity to establish his own gang.

The newly ford Gonsede Gang was even greedier than the previous smuggling gang, no longer just limited to smuggling itself; they would drain every smuggler, with fraud and extortion being the most basic.

Young, attractive girls would be sold, and others were forced into drug trafficking, and there were even rumors of organ trafficking.

The FBI has repeatedly joined forces with the Border Patrol to strike at this gang, and Gonsede himself has fled back to xico, but he still remotely commands various criminal activities."

Luke pursued further, "How are you so sure it was the Gonsede Gang that killed Natasha?"

"Based on our investigation, the Gonsede Gang has been smuggling drugs and has its own sales channels.

Their sales channels are different from ordinary drug sales channels, being more secretive.

We suspect that they likely use the courier thod to deliver drugs to buyers.

The details are still unclear, but couriers are likely mbers of the Gonsede Gang; they could easily use an explosive in a delivery to kill Natasha."

Upon hearing Alfie Imma's statent, Luke was half convinced, but it did answer one of his questions about why soone intercepted the police car when they were arresting the courier.
