On Tuesday, the Associated Press detailed a RADE operation that went totally wrong!
According to the outlet, on Jan. 13, 2021, a female informant for RPSO was raped during an unmonitored sting operation at a home on Texas Avenue involving a well known drug dealer.
According to the AP, Antonio Jones, 48, raped the woman who was wearing a microphone and hidden camera when she was forced to perform oral sex on him twice. She was looking to buy meth from Jones as a part of RADE’s operation. Authorities claim the microphone and camera cut off during the time so they didn’t hear her screaming for help.
“It was recording inside the residence. The guys outside monitoring the deal could not hear anything going on. They couldn’t hear it live. When she exited the residence, and comes out to my guys and tells them what happened, they verified that with the tapes, and that’s when we called the CID division, and they were called in. A search warrant and arrest warrant were issued at that point.” Sheriff Mark Wood to News Channel 5.
