To survey someone for 10-years takes some dedication! That’s just what the FEDS did in Arizona. The results were arrests of four UPS workers.
Per WSBTV
According to The Washington Post, four UPS employees – including two supervisors and two drivers – are among those arrested to date, and 49-year-old Mario Barcelo is believed to be the ringleader. Authorities believe Barcelo, a dispatch supervisor who had worked for the shipping giant for 20 years, obscured the origin and destination of drug shipments, creating a pipeline stretching from the southwest to the U.S. East Coast.
the products and proceeds seized during the stealthy two-week sting were 50,000 counterfeit THC vape pens, commercial-grade equipment used to manufacture the concentrated extracts used in the pens, cash and more than one dozen vehicles, including a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Raptor trucks and a Range Rover, ICE spokeswoman Yasmeen Pitts-O’Keefe told the Tucson Sentinel.
The crew managed a sophisticated operation that managed to duck arrests for years.
