Sam Hurd Mistake #2
The money Hurd was willing to spend was on top of what he was already purchasing elsewhere. Hurd told the informant that he currently distributed “four kilograms of cocaine per week in the Chicago area, but that the supplier could not supply him with enough quantity.”
Why is he disclosing this information?
He’s like a bad villain from a James Bond movie who tells everyone his secret plan. Come on dude, keep that information to yourself. Did he think that they guy wasn’t going to give him drugs if he didn’t know every exact detail?
And again, why is Hurd doing the talking in the first place. Where’s Wallace when you need him?
Another question: why is Hurd buying from this guy?
If I’m going to be buying mass quantities of drugs from someone, I’m going to need someone to vouch for him. I’m going to need to see receipts. I want proof. What kind of undercover agent is going to be able to provide that information? I’m not taking anyone’s word when it comes to $2 million worth of drugs per month.
