Gavin was restless for a long time, but in the end, he couldn't harden his heart.
A 40-50% conviction probability was indeed too low.
If they failed to secure a conviction in the end and had a falling out with the IRS, wouldn't the IRS give his people hell?
He didn't dare to gamble.
"Dial tone..."
Just then, the ring of the desk phone interrupted Gavin's train of thought; he quickly answered, "Who's this?"
"This is Hosein, Gavin. What exactly is going on in your Nevada State? There are some media reports saying your IRS has detained several of our FBI senior agents. Is there any truth to this?"
Hearing the call and the questioning from the Deputy Director of the FBI, Gavin clenched his fist. He hadn't expected the incident to escalate so quickly and already reach Washington D.C.
Then he replied stiffly, "Rest assured, Deputy Director Hosein, the IRS just had a little misunderstanding with us, I can handle it."
