disaster. have to do it right, because if i make a mistake and blow my cover, then it will affect the whole operation because if they find out i m a police officer, then people will start scattering. the target never arrives. back at the jail, investigators search for his name in police records, yet find nothing. i know you guys investigated him before. he s been operating. he s just a little bit more careful than you. coming up on the squeeze authorities declare open season on the mannheim strip. it s not over for you yet. but obviously the game has changed.
something about them to set them back like maybe i can t just spin this guy out of here, he knows something. investigators at county understand nothing can be taken at face value. every inmate has an agenda and for some, their goal is counterintelligence. their very calculating in what they re doing. they ll try and see just what we know or try and turn us into different direction. most important thing in the long run is verifying the information that you received. got to be thorough. got to be meticulous. you ve got to have street sense to you. it s like a cat and mouse game. coming up next on the squeeze the sheriff s police target a heroin ring in chicago s south suburbs. and try to flip a suspect at the crime scene. nobody takes the weight, everybody takes the ride. the way it cleans. everything about the oral-b power brush is simply revolutionary. oral-b power brushes oscillate, rotate
and you can t protect your own anymore. we re outgunned, we re outnumbered. right now we re seeing all around us police departments that are collapsing police departments that are being cut to a fraction of their size, and we re being asked to fill the void. dozens and dozens of towns and villages are calling me weekly to come and take over their police take over their police functions because they can t afford it anymore. i will be struggling to maintain just what i have now, which is a police force that i have not been replacing people as they retire because i have no money for that. my budgets are being sliced and diced. something has to give. next on the squeeze is it fair to say you think his own guys could have something to do with it? these guys work them all. ake kids happy. and even fewer that make moms happy too. with
they are ready to make sweeping arrests and the timing takes the sheriff s police by surprise. it will be much more difficult for them to do undercover work once the other agencies heat up the neighborhood. so whereas if i rolled out and was able to get it just like that, now they are going to start looking at me differently. see the police, see this, see that. they might start questioning the buyer more. so the sheriff s police decide to put game over on pause. we re going to just hold off for a little bit and go back and start making more buys. that leaves their main informant roosevelt to his own devices. the risk is, if he s like most informants, i ll have a hard time staying motivated without a paycheck. when guys are calling you every day when they get out, it almost gets on your nerves. in a way, but in another way you ve got to be glad that they re calling you. then it will go to every other day and every three days then once a week. then once every two weeks. then
it s the fact we came in here and took out the guy they have been following for the past three years. just got taken off the tier. now, what do we do. who is going to take over. who is the mouthpiece and brains. there s going to be a lot of confusion for a minute. it s perfect. in a matter of hours, authorities take 24 of their targets into custody. from here, they will transfer them to their new homes and put them under surveillance. it s going to open up a ton of different avenues. i guarantee you, you ll probably flip three or four more guys. guys that didn t talk to us and are now inรง a different divisi. it s con conducive to what they are used to. coming up on the squeeze we are letting the guys in the street know we are out here
