Police trying to unlock mystery of poison in can of sardines
Police Officer 2 Joselito Gagaza, QCPD investigator, told Inquirer that the victims consumed the sardines at around 8 p.m. Tuesday inside their home. Before the incident, Regaya had asked Piad to buy seven cans of sardines from the nearby corner store.
Gagaza said that instead of cooking the sardines, the two opted for “fast food.” “They ate the sardines straight from the can,” the investigator said.
Airline helped land Cleveland drug ring
he stealth venture operated from 2004 to 2006 and may have continued well into 2007 if not for one major misstep: Southwest Airlines' corporate security noticed someone booked more than 550 flights using the same frequent-flyer account. That sent up a red flag to the airline personnel, worried about abuse of their frequent-flyer "Rapid Rewards" program.
The airline alerted federal investigators, who realized the ring was up to much more than fraud.
The group was brought down following an eight-month investigation, resulting in 24 convictions. The tale of the group's downfall is laid out in reams of plea agreements, court documents, trial testimony and interviews with federal agents.
