Publisher Description
On July 18, 1989, Tyrone Anthony Holland, a person familiar with illegal drug trafficking, received a telephone call from Kevin Ackiss, in which Ackiss advised him that he "could set up half a kilo deal." At the time, Holland was under indictment for unlawful distribution of drugs. Seeking favor from the police by cooperating with them, Holland called Detective Dennis Santos, a member of the Virginia Beach Police Department Special Investigating Unit (510), and advised him of the call from Ackiss. Holland agreed to be wired with a body transmitter, meet Ackiss and pretend to purchase the cocaine. Arrangements were then made with Ackiss to conduct the transaction from a Cadillac Seville in the parking lot of a Red Roof Inn in Virginia Beach.
