The Greatest Undercover Informant Of All Time Ray Khan And Lou Valozl Was There

from Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut · host Arroe Collins

Ray Khan was the most unlikely confidential informant in law enforcement history, yet he found himself a fugitive, running from the same government he had helped.Ray Khan was born and raised in Gujarat, India, where his father was an officer with the Indian National Police. Wanting to follow in his footsteps, Ray took the entrance exam for the IPS three times but failed each time, so he followed his wife to the US to chase the American dream. However, things did not work out, and Ray ended up losing his wife and his legal immigration status. After moving to Georgia and buying his first convenience store, Ray unknowingly walked into an undercover ATF operation and purchased untaxed cigarettes. Shortly after, he was arrested and scheduled for deportation. However, by becoming a confidential informant for ATF Special Agent Lou Valoze, Ray was able to avoid deportation and quickly worked off his charges.Over the next six years, he would prove himself to be one of the most successful informants in ATF history. Valoze, recognizing Ray's unique skills, used him in several undercover operations, and Ray proved his worth by bringing hundreds of violent criminals who sold thousands of crime guns and hundreds of kilograms of narcotics to Valoze and his undercover team. Valoze and Ray would eventually develop a relationship that went beyond the usual agent and informant relationship. But, during the entire time he was working as an informant, he was being targeted by a corrupt, high-level officer with the Georgia Department of Revenue. After Ray and Valoze concluded one of the most successful undercover operations in history, Valoze's career imploded, and Ray found himself in the crosshairs of numerous corrupt Georgia officials.After being indicted on state RICO charges, Ray evaded the law and became a fugitive in New York City. Having learned many things while working with Valoze, Ray would eventually turn the tables on his corrupt pursuers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

F*ck Surviving, We're Thriving Malina Lopez Hello beautiful humans! I have been on my holistic healing journey since 2020 after a massive awakening thanks to a sound healing ceremony. Since then I have dedicated my free time to health and healing (when I'm not too consumed with being a mama of two). Health is something that has always been important to me, but healing myself in a holistic way has allowed me to become a version of myself I am truly proud of. I had no idea there was an option for living life outside of survival mode. As someone who has been in some state of fight, flight or freeze since I was a small child the idea of any other life seemed out of reach and down right unrealistic. I honestly thought how I was living and feeling was totally normal. Once I started to heal all parts of myself down to the cells I am made up of I realized life is so much more than people pleasing, anxiety attacks and living life in a haze. I've been exciting that survival mode and entering my era of thriving.  I feel ready and so e Explicit Wassup Life Veto Vangundy & Ollie 4 A Reason Wassup Life, a weekly podcast with Chicago's own Vangundy and Big Ollie.
