Chapter 650 -327: Arrest, Prosecution_2

According to the current situation, if this drags on for a few more days, and Murdoch’s bastards really turn this group into a “unfinished building,” not to mention making profit, they might even have to invest additional funds and deal with a series of bad issues, which would be a loss not worth the gain.

Sitting here, David also looked somber, feeling somewhat depressed.

He had not anticipated that the Jewish people would be so ruthless, to ruin such a large group without even batting an eye.

However, what depressed him the most wasn’t this, but that the FBI and the Internal Revenue Service were different; the IRS had the privilege of acting first and reporting later, as well as many powers that other departments did not have.

That is to say, if it had been the IRS handling the case against the news group, they could have directly frozen the group’s funds, operations and other business activities, and none of these Jewish people would have had the chance to meddle.

The problem lay in the fact that the FBI did not have such privileges. Before a charge could be proven, they had to abide by legal regulations and could not overstep their authority to interfere with a company’s operations.

...

In reality, it wasn’t that the FBI didn’t have enough evidence to convict the news group; on the contrary, the documents David provided to Gavin were certainly sufficient for a conviction.

But, even though there was enough evidence for a conviction, some judicial processes still needed to be followed; they couldn’t act as high-handedly as the IRS, which had the power to bypass judicial procedures.

Furthermore, if they had declared a conviction too early, then the news group would have had to halt trading on the stock market, preventing Ted, Trisha, and John from gaining control of the group.

Thus, David felt both depressed and helpless about the situation.

Just then, a ringing phone broke the slightly tense atmosphere; David picked it up and saw that it was from Gavin, his expression shifted, and he immediately pressed the answer key, “Go ahead.”

“Director David, we finally completed the process!”

Gavin’s tone was somewhat relieved.

He was well aware that over these past few days, the news group had been madly ‘self-destructing’, but there was nothing he could do—as an FBI department, they had to adhere to the Department of Justice’s laws and regulations, especially with such a large company, even if the evidence was abundant, the process still took time.

Thinking of this, he felt somewhat envious of the various privileges the IRS had; if it had been the IRS, it wouldn’t have been so troublesome and exhausting!

“Is that so, can we announce it now?”

Hearing this, David also breathed a sigh of relief. If things continued, the news group would be left a mere shell. He didn’t want to see that happen.

“As long as you agree, we can announce it anytime.”

“Then announce it, don’t delay.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, David looked over at the three people sitting across from him and said, “I just received word that Gavin has finished the process; you can head back early to get ready.”

Upon hearing this, the three who had previously looked worried immediately brightened up.

Although the value of the news group had been greatly diminished by the Jewish people’s ‘self-destruction’ these past few days.

But now that the FBI is ready to announce the end of their investigation, the Jewish people could no longer continue their antics.

If they took over, as long as they did their best to repair it, although they couldn’t guarantee restoring the group to its peak, getting it back to half its peak shouldn’t be a problem.

Even if it was just half, along with the large market share the news group previously held, it would be enough for the three of them to profit a great deal.

Meanwhile, after Gavin released the news group investigation results at the press conference, the whole net instantly boiled over, and various media outlets immediately came to the New York FBI Office and set up their cameras.

Under the gaze of the public, Gavin walked out surrounded by the officers of the investigative team.

At that moment, his hair stood shiny, dressed in a tailored black suit, his face beaming with pride.

Ever since the announcement of the investigation against the news group, he had become an overnight sensation across America, and due to the huge influence of the 911 wiretapping scandal, he was hailed as a warrior bold enough to resist the powerful.

And when he announced the outcome of the event and had the executives of the media group brought to trial with charges determined, his prestigious achievements guaranteed a promotion.

Moreover, now that he had closely allied himself with David, as the other had suggested, it was not impossible to aim for the highest seat in the FBI over time!

“Agent Gavin, has the investigation into the media group concluded?”

“Agent Gavin, have the charges against the media group been confirmed?”

“Agent Gavin…”

Under the barrage of questions from reporters, Gavin finally snapped out of his reverie. He stepped into the spotlight, pressed his hands downward, and said, “Yes, the investigation into the media group by our team has concluded.”

“Besides the documents and recordings released over this period, we have gathered evidence of the media group’s offenses including wiretapping, insider trading, bribery, and manipulating public opinion. I am now officially announcing that the FBI will arrest and prosecute Tony Aldrich, Theodore Xavier… and others!”

Previously, when Gavin took these individuals away, it was merely under the guise of cooperating with the investigation, but now he explicitly used the term “arrest,” and the meaning between the two was different.

“Haha, finally they are officially arrested!”

“I hope these bastards get sentenced to 100 years, oh no, even better, a thousand years like the IRS!”

“Wishful thinking, the FBI doesn’t have the special privileges like the IRS, they mostly have to abide by laws and regulations, they can’t impose such severe sentences.”

“Wait… the senior executives of the media group have been announced arrested, but as the highest leader of the group, Murdoch should also be responsible, right?”

Once this announcement was made, the national public rejoiced.

However, soon, doubts were raised, as Murdoch’s name was not included in the FBI’s list of arrested individuals.

In fact, the reason Murdoch remained unscathed was not Gavin’s decision, but David’s.

Firstly, Murdoch was a member of the Freemasonry Group and held a significant role. If David truly intended to take him down, Freemasonry would spare no cost to rescue him for the sake of reputation.

The outcome would probably be similar to last time with Jeff from Amazon; the White House might intervene directly, urging moderation.

Secondly, this move was facilitated through the FBI.

Although many high-ranking officials in the FBI finally consented to Gavin taking this action under the pressure from David and the Ansa Group,

getting Murdoch involved would mean a direct confrontation between the FBI and the Freemasonry Group—something their higher echelons definitely wouldn’t want.

Lastly, David had no significant personal grievances with Murdoch. After dealing with the media group, he would no longer have any impediments and could smoothly transition to his role as the National Chief Tax Inspector.

In other words, his most important task now was to prepare for his new role in Washington D.C. and it was unnecessary to expend more energy on this matter.

In the following period, the media started questioning Gavin about the details of the investigation.

Even some reporters, seeking to boost viewership, directly asked whether this case was related to David as Murdoch had mentioned a few days ago, or if David had helped?

Naturally, Gavin categorically denied it.

Afterward, Gavin announced the date of the prosecution, which would be set three days later.

The reason for waiting three days was out of necessity, as mentioned earlier, the FBI didn’t have the IRS’s privileges and had to follow the due process.

Yet three days later was the quickest timeline Gavin could negotiate.

Fortunately, what consoled him was that with the evidence provided by David, once the senior executives of the media group were brought to court, they would definitely not be able to escape their charges, so he didn’t mind waiting a few more days.
