He was doing 20 years for possession

It was deemed an illegal search.
That's why the city awarded Garrett $200,000
for wrongful arrest.

to corner the market on high-end heroin.

wrongful conviction offenders.

Garrett's not just a drug dealer, he's a murderer.
He killed Lauren Sanders.
She was 17 years old, she ran away from home.
Garrett found her, he pimped her out,

Hmm?

I got offered $1,000 to take my dress off.
- That guy...yeah.
We played cards.
- You found out he was holding heroin at the warehouse,
and instead of paying for it...
You put a bullet in his neck.
- Nah, that wasn't me.
- Where were you at noon?
- I was still in bed. - So you don't have an alibi.
- Look, there's no upside in taking Garrett out.
He had the hookup for China White.
He's the golden goose.
- What I don't understand is we got ballistics back
on the bullet that killed Garrett.
And it's a match to a Glock 17 you used to rob
a liquor store four years ago.
- I don't got that gun anymore.
When I got busted, the cops took it off me,
I never seen it again.
- If the cops took it off you,
it would have been booked in the evidence.
- Then maybe somebody un-booked it.
Wouldn't be the first time Chicago Police played dirty.
