you could go in and get a gram. they ll front the money, so it s whatever s easiest. with chicago s crystal meth traffic on the rise, investigator mike davis has recruited an informant from the city s number one hub of meth use, the gay community. you can t just do this. you have to coordinate this through davis, because they have to give you the money and know exactly when you re going in and coming out. but as long as this informant, whom we re calling tango, is in jail, he needs his boyfriend on the outside to set up targets for police. yeah. we re on our way. all right, be good. four days later, tango s partner comes through. he arranges a buy with a major dealer. now davis and investigator dimas hernandez are headed to boystown
any of the buyers up and down and get served crystal meth at any time? if you know somebody. you ve just got to go to know where to look, right? yeah, it s not like if you walked into a bar in boystown and said, where can i get some tweak? is that the street word? tweak? no, tina. meth is something i ve never dealt with before. so i was interested to say what he had to say. we re not dealing with a gang member. we re gang intelligence, but we re never going to turn down intel that comes out of the jail, whether it s gang related or not. we don t know where this is going to go. 35 miles south of the boystown neighborhood is an entirely different world. where police answer shots fired calls on a weekly, sometimes daily basis.
target in boystown, but it s got to happen fast. round two, he ll probably be a little more seasoned and crafty in order to try to make something like this happen. because, you know, he has to be. he s got two days. [ police siren ] while the team on the city s north side faces a setback, another unit catches a possible break in the far south suburbs. liquor city. down chicago road. they ve nabbed a suspect on a minor drug offense who says they can help him find the alleged gunman we ve been calling booth. booth s been in hiding in ford heights, and investigators conrad edgett and zach smith are eager to find him. we want to know where he s at
i ve disagreed with different decisions that he s made, but i m not going to try to control somebody. if i m going to stay with them, i have to accept whatever outcome. we had an informant in there. we also were able to make a buy out of that location and what we bought tested positive for crystal meth. cash scores another transaction for police several days later. it gives them the evidence they need to make their first boystown arrest. it s a very small apartment from what our informant s telling us. entry, mike gleason s going to be on point, followed by moose, followed by dimas. did you ever think you d be doing this? the crazy thing is, love, somehow you justify things you d never do, things you don t even believe in, and i have crossed lines i thought i d never cross to help him.
