Jimmy Capra was a relatively new DEA agent when he caught the case of a lifetime. At first some of the other agents in his office didn’t believe him on the size and scope of the drug trafficking organization he was working. But Jimmy kept working it. He reached out to his law enforcement partners in Los Angeles County and put together a team of officers who tracked every lead, conducted hours upon hours of surveillance, and searched thousands of records for the one clue to break things wide open. It paid off. They got 21 tons of cocaine and 12 million in cash from an organization linked to the Cali and Medellin cartels. This was the largest seizure of cocaine in US history at the time.
