My guess is he was waiting for the 800 lbs of pot this guy was bringing in and was very disappointed when it didnt arrive.

To quote Judge Judy: "Follow the money."

Drug money, like Opec Oil money, gets spread around and ends up in the the pockets or in the off-shore accounts of people in high places.

Something smells about this whole incident and the reports that the drug dealer was given immunity twice.

Something smells that the incident came to light only through the drug dealer's mother-in-law telling 'a friend' who was a border agent in Arizona.

Something smells that the government would spend so much time and effort and money and personnel to prosecute this case. The compilation of cost would have been more effectively used to fight the drug trade.
