Last year, an undercover informant for the Department of Homeland Security began working at Swissport for Herrera-Ruano, according to the complaint. The informant told agents in March that Herrera-Ruano had bragged to him about working with drug cartels in the past, and offered to help the informant smuggle drugs of his own through the airport for a $1,000 fee.

Интересно, вчерашний придурок Керликовский это записал в расходы, или ATF не считается?
