| 0:00.0 | Good morning. It is Casey and Jim. You're listening to 93 WIBC, joining us in the studio, as he does every Wednesday at 11 o'clock. We have Corey Grass, former FBI special agent, spent 20 years in counterterrorism and counterintelligence. |
| 0:21.3 | But you were telling us, before we get into the topics we really want to talk about, |
| 0:26.0 | I wanted to ask you, you had mentioned that when you were in Miami, you were on what, |
| 0:31.4 | art protection detail? |
| 0:34.6 | Tell me more. |
| 0:35.6 | Say more words. |
| 0:36.8 | Thanks for having me again, as usual. No, I not in the art protection detail. So what I mentioned was the FBI investigates over 300 violations. Very unique. So like other federal agencies, you know, the DEA does drugs. Different drugs, of course, but it's just one type of violation. Secret Services Protection. They do some credit card stuff, some child porn. The FBI has over 300 violations. Some of those are very, very unique. So my squad, I actually worked violent crimes in Miami for five years on the task force. So my squad mostly worked cargo thefts and hijackings, which when I first got there, I didn't understand what that meant or what it was or what we were even going to do. But it's such a huge problem down there with people stealing tractor trailers full of cargo, expensive, small electronics, medicine and things. Because of all the ports. |
| 1:16.1 | That and it's just part of the population there. It's a different way of life based on people |
| 1:20.4 | that immigrated. They would learn certain things in their country and behave a certain way. |
| 1:24.1 | 95% of our clientele came from two little suburbs there. |
| 1:29.8 | But they hit the entire country. |
| 1:46.5 | They hit warehouses. They tractor trailer. So it's very unique violation. While we were there, I picked up a carjacking case, which I thought was unique. I asked my boss, why are we working? It's just one of the ones we picked up. The guys from New York. We found him in Miami. I arrested him. But yes, we had a person who was assigned full time to work |
| 1:45.0 | high-end art thefts. So Monets, Renoirs, all the ones I didn't understand. So I didn't really investigate too much of those, but I definitely had a part in recovering some of those and took some good pictures with them later. And get your DNA all over some high-end Renoir's. She gives away all my seekers. I did make sure to, I put a thumbprint, a thumbprint of my DNA on the fancy gold frame of some of those nice pictures. |
| 2:04.4 | It's very much like when you get pulled over for a traffic ticket and a police officer will touch the back of your car to put his DNA on the vehicle. I've never thought of it that way, but yeah, that's probably a cop way of thinking very much. Making sure you got your fingerprint. Which most people don't know that. If you ever see like a footage of, you know, police officer pulling over a car or body cam footage, yeah, that's what police officers touch the back of the car so that their fingerprint is on that to kind of leave a mark and kind of prove that they were there in this position. And you were doing it to high-end artwork. |
| 2:34.6 | I love it. |
| 2:35.5 | I'm a fancy cop. |
| 2:35.9 | Yeah. |
| 2:36.5 | Oh, okay. |
| 2:42.6 | I want to talk with you about some of the scandals that happen in law enforcement over the past week, |
| 2:45.3 | specifically all of the sheriffs. |
| 2:47.9 | I mean, we've got the Klein Helters and the Kellys. And that seems to be very specific to sheriff's offices. Is there a reason why |
| 2:55.0 | that's happening? You know, again, I've been in law enforcement for well over 30 years. And it's just, |
