Interview: Inside ATF Undercover Ops: Guns, Cartels, and Betrayal

from The REAL David Knight Show · host David Knight

Lou Valoze, a 26-year ATF undercover veteran, pulls back the curtain on a world most Americans never see — storefront sting operations, running fake businesses from shooting ranges to international freight forwarders to get cartel members, biker gangs, and the Gambino family to incriminate themselves. Valoze reveals how his career was derailed not by anything he did in the field but by an Obama-appointed U.S. attorney who objected to the racial demographics of his defendants — career criminals in an urban area — triggering a two-year OIG investigation that found nothing, while his star informant Ray Khan, a gas station owner turned indispensable undercover asset who helped bring in cartel members, was simultaneously being hunted by Georgia revenue officers who turned out to be on the payroll of Ray's business competition.
