As always, both men have the right to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law, but this is a very serious situation.
This isn’t a jaywalking ticket. These are incredibly serious charges, and the indictment paints a picture of a massive criminal organization.

Again, this is all alleged at this time, but as you can tell from the fact lots of people were taken down in the operation, the authorities clearly feel it’s a serious situation that warranted serious attention and resources.
