Chapter 1486 799: Assault
The file contains Hank's account, including how he tracked Jesse Pinkman and was called to the hospital, only to find the suspected drug lab RV destroyed upon his return.
Of course, the process of him beating Jesse is also documented in the file; these are facts that cannot go unrecorded.
Although the DEA may not handle as many cases as the FBI, their basic file information certainly won't be wrong. Detailed parts also have corresponding photos, which can serve as supplementary evidence for detailed descriptions. Just by looking at these materials, Jimmy was able to restore the entire process of Hank beating Jesse Pinkman. However, these files lack some information.
Jimmy looked at Steven: "Did you investigate these key calls? Who told Hank Mary was in trouble and went to the hospital? Who called him a minute earlier to warn him? Also, the site where Jesse Pinkman destroyed the RV needs investigating, if he didn't make a call from the car, then there must be other people involved, maybe right there."
Steven shook his head: "They're all unregistered calls, we've already checked, no valid leads, only that the first call was from a woman, the warning call probably from a man."
Jimmy: "Not detailed enough, in addition to determining the ownership of the phone numbers, also need to locate their positions during the call, investigate surveillance, and examine mobile information within tens of meters around, something abnormal will be found."
Steven was stunned, "Can you guys do that?"
Jimmy: "Of course, as long as there's authorization, we can contact the NSA for critical information, can't you guys?"
Steven frowned: "Certainly not, unless it's a major case, we have no way of applying upwards, and even if we did, it needs to go through headquarters."
Jimmy was a bit embarrassed, even though DEA and FBI are both federal agencies, the levels differ quite a lot. In previous cases, he often got special approval, so investigation files were almost never artificially limited, he really didn't expect it couldn't be done here.
Jimmy: "Alright, then give up, we can start the investigation from Jesse Pinkman, no matter how the people behind arrange it, they can't bypass him, at least he should be acquainted with them, and the relationship is likely close.
This Jesse is very young, which means even if he has hidden secrets, he certainly can't hide for too long like those old foxes. Perhaps just two or three days of tracking can record most of the people he contacts regularly, just a simple analysis can exclude the majority unlikely to mastermind such plots, the remaining ones can be closely monitored."
The second investigation can start from the abandoned vehicle lot, where the RV was dismantled in such a short time, it must have been prearranged, perhaps involving cash transactions. If manpower is available, the investigation can start from this point, everyone who appeared there needs to be cross-checked for identity and tracked for their movements and contacts."
He tapped the files on the small coffee table, two assassin photos, "Both assassins are dead, they have no identities, no records, so they can be abandoned. These two clearly smuggled in and got help from gangs or drug dealers to arrange routes from the border to Albuquerque, unless there's someone offering clues on receiving them, otherwise spending effort on them is a waste."
Steven nodded, such cases need professional handling, just a glance at a bit of data, Jimmy could determine so many investigation directions, and the investigation content is there, should be ready to proceed.
Jimmy saw Steven understood his meaning, continued: "Hank's ambush shows the opponent's clear target, and there's an insider leaking information, meaning the opponent's interior is clearly not united, someone hoped to kill Hank, while others hoped they wouldn't succeed.
But the informer is clearly not enough to cancel the action internally or affect the assassins, so his status should be second in command or a consultant-like role within the team, such a person usually wouldn't reveal themselves, but at critical moments, he should turn against. If you can find this guy, maybe he could testify, provided he can rise in rank or exit the organization.
Of course, this is difficult, internal betrayals rarely happen, but he must have conflicts with the boss, maybe in a special situation, he could kill his own boss, considered revenge for Hank, but it's about whether such an opportunity appears."
Steven was somewhat dumbfounded, "You inferred all this from that call?"
Jimmy shrugged: "I've had dealings with New York gangs, but I'm not familiar with Mexico gangs and your local gangs, unsure whether my analysis is correct, but it counts as a clue. Oh, and their strength is quite formidable, during the investigation do not expose your identity, it will be very dangerous."
Steven: "Is that all?"
Jimmy: "If I were investigating, I'd focus on one or two directions, currently starting with Jesse Pinkman is most feasible. As for the lawyer, frankly, such people are hard to handle, he's clearly well-connected in the underworld, targeting his investigation might cause alarm, if you're truly interested, someone can gather cases he's worked on, exclude street thugs, the remaining should include main underworld collaborators, maybe he's another Tom Hagen."
