FBI arrests Miami cop on drug charges * 1
    #14553160 - 06/02/11 10:28 PM (12 years, 7 months ago)

Thursday, 06.02.11

A Miami police officer was arrested by the FBI Thursday and charged with carrying cocaine and marijuana he had seized from a dope dealer during a bust last year.

Roberto Asanza, 31, of Miami, a six-year veteran who worked in the department’s crime suppression unit, was charged with possession with intent to distribute cocaine. Asanza, a Marine Corp veteran and 1998 graduate of Coral Park High, was released on a personal surety bond after his first appearance in federal court Thursday.

If convicted, he faces up to 20 years in prison. His lawyer, assistant federal public defender Kashyap Patel, declined to comment. A Miami police representative could not be reached for comment.

According to an FBI affidavit, Asanza and other CSU members arrested a man identified as “L.R.” at an Allapattah window-tinting shop on Northwest Seventh Avenue in early May of last year and seized numerous bags of cocaine and marijuana.

A few weeks later, FBI agents stopped Asanza’s vehicle and found 10 bags of cocaine and two of marijuana, which were part of the same drug cache taken from the Allapattah dope dealer, the affidavit said.

The FBI investigation, assisted by Miami police, also involves Asanza’s supervisor.

In January 2010, Asanza and another Miami police officer, identified as “R.I.” in the affidavit, recruited a confidential informant to work with the undercover squad. According to sources, R.I. is Raul Iglesias, 38, a Miami police sergeant who was in charge of the Central District’s CSU before he was suspended with pay following the FBI’s stop of Asanza’s vehicle.

Iglesias, a 16-year veteran, has not been charged but is under investigation, sources said.

His lawyer, William Matthewman, described Iglesias as an “excellent police officer who has done absolutely nothing wrong. It is unfortunate that his name is being raised in this context.”

According to the FBI affidavit, the confidential informant tipped off R.I. and Asanza about the dealer who sold drugs at the Allapattah shop.

On May 5 of last year, R.I., Asanza and other CSU members arrested L.R. at the tint shop and confiscated the drugs.

About three weeks later, FBI agents questioned Asanza. He let them search his truck, where agents found the drugs. Asanza admitted to the agents that the drugs were taken from the tint shop dealer after his arrest.

In October, Asanza admitted to FBI agents that both he and R.I. “took custody of the drugs and money” from the tint shop dealer, according to the affidavit. Asanza also admitted that he “paid” the informant with one or two bags of cocaine seized from the doper numerous times.

“Asanza admitted that he knew it was wrong to give drugs to the CI, but that he was trying to build a rapport with the CI,” the affidavit said,

After the dealer’s arrest, the confidential informant said that R.I. paid him $40 for his services. The informant said he signed a receipt for it, which is policy.Asanza then said: “Hook [the CI] up some,” according to the affidavit. R.I. handed the informant $80 -- cash found at the tint shop -- along with two bags of cocaine, the document says.

Not surprising happens everyday, these guys just happened to get caught.  The government is the reason why most of the hard drugs are so prolific, so to see police using confiscated goods to their advantage does not surprise me in the least lol  On a side note......50th POST SON!!!!


--------------------
EVERY SINGLE POST I MAKE IS PURELY FICTION AS THIS SCREEN NAME IS A FICTIONAL CHARACTER IF HE WAS REAL HE WOULD BE  A COMPLETELY LAW ABIDING CITIZEN


ON THAT NOTE... SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY:rasta:

Stupid coppa. Ok I can understand why you would choose to enforce these bs drug laws if your a cop... but then going around and selling the shit means not only are the laws bs but that the people enforcing them don't even care about the laws. In the end, all this means is f teh police!
