child working Nick Lambros as an
informant Brandon is 15 years old yes
but he is no child he's working off a
suspended sentence helping me clean up
the streets you're his one phone call
very good give the man a prize so why
didn't he call you and we had him in
here for possession because officer
Marcus here set us up he had his snitch
give you a location then he alerted two
very paranoid drug dealers we were
coming that's murder

do with Nick Lambros for what is it two
or three years now you just give me my
informant and I'm out of here he's a
minor and a murder witness under my
recognizance I'm not gonna let you get

way out you got him killed he killed
himself he was dead before I met him so
you used him yeah maybe I did if he was
smarter he could have used me and gotten
himself clean yeah like you would have
let him you know what I don't need this
we need your help
we have an officer undercover here
unbelievable man was the girl with
Brandon the one you smacked around she's
been out of contact for hours we have a
feeling she's with Lambros do you have

we have an officer undercover here
unbelievable man was the girl with
Brandon the one you smacked around she's
been out of contact for hours we have a
feeling she's with Lambros do you have
