The feds, punishing the Gang Task Force in the wake of their failures and their corruption. Paralyzed by the federal agency's pressure and good work from the outside media sources. Once a scourge of the Domain of Sacramento, the group that had been bribed into corrupt silence by the pornographer, Bruce Harcourt, was doing nothing. Johnny Law was tired of this shit, but the information was good. It let Moretti know that now was the time to move the cops to do one thing.

Their fucking jobs.

Beaten down by the mysterious Feds, the Gang Task Force was no longer in the way. They had their own shit to deal with. Bribes from Bruce Harcourt weren't shit when suits were looking. Which meant that a quiet word in the right set of ears could move things along. An anecdote about a party. The sheer amount of drugs that people there were consuming. Rumours and signs of weapons being massed. Naturally, where the party den was was useful...

All learned for a case, of course. Some cheating hubby. It always was.

Nothing she could officially go on the record for in a Courtroom, but things she'd heard, enough to go on, enough to form an 'anonymous tip' that would provide a lead, and that lead could provide probable cause. After all, people were going to get hurt with that kind of concentration of arms. Maybe now, now that the Gang Task Force was fucked up and the Feds were up in their business, the regular ol' cops could use the win.

And to give them some incentive? She'd make sure the press was ready to shower them with praise for the bust, which might help dislodge ABC Agency from their asses. Brucie's next party was going to be a real bang.

2 sux after -3 penalty for difficulty/stealth to get the cops to bust Brucie et al. for weapons/drugs etc. / 3 sux to make sure the Media gives them the kind of press coverage they like for that kind of awesomeness
