DA’s Office Seizes more than $1 Million in Cash
- Updated: October 9, 2015
Investigators with the District Attorney’s Office Special Investigations Unit in June dismantled a multi-county money-laundering operation and seized more than $1 million in cash and assets.
The seizure, and arrests of multiple persons, is the culmination of a several-month-long investigation with Operation Bishop.
Search and Seizure Warrants were secured and executed on a San Benito residence, a Brownsville residence, and various banking institutions. In total, more than $1 million in cash has been seized, as well as vehicles and high-end jewelry. Those arrested were known to have previously been involved in the illegal 8-liner industry in the Rio Grande Valley.
Assisting the District Attorney’s Office in the investigation were HSI, Cameron County Sheriff’s Office and the Brownsville Police Department.
The investigation remains ongoing.
