A drug trafficking group in the Bay Area devised a plan to pay an ex-boyfriend, who had been arrested, $100,000 per year to keep silent about their operations, fearing he might inform authorities. However, their plan fell apart as he was already working with the FBI. This led to federal charges against three members of the drug ring. Evidence revealed a wide-ranging operation involved counterfeit drugs and significant drug quantities. Sentences were handed down, including prison time for some members after their guilty pleas.
During the investigation of the drug ring, the FBI uncovered a vast operation involving counterfeit drugs and significant quantities of marijuana and weapons.
