In 1987, Fred
Valis & Dan Hanks had set up shop in Front Royal, Virginia. They had
left Marin County, California after a sting operation which had netted
20 kilos of cocaine and burned their cover. For about a year, Fred and
Dan had split up. Dan went to work for the DEA in Miami & Ft Myers,
Florida and Fred relocated to Front Royal, Virginia. Now they were back
together and doing stings for the Baltimore, Maryland DEA office. It was
during that time that the incident related below in Leslie Cockburn's book,
"Out of Control", took place |
