During follow-up investigation of the stolen vehicles detectives located a forgery lab, false identifications, blank and forged checks, stolen credit cards and identification documents from over 70 victims- 19 of which were Mesquite residents, stolen sports memorabilia, stolen mail keys, a 9mm handgun, and stolen industrial equipment.
Detectives spent several weeks sorting through the evidence and sharing information with multiple agencies to develop strong cases against the suspects. They were able to close out eight active Mesquite incidents, with dozens of new local felony charges for both suspects.

“When a suspect is arrested our work is far from over” stated Detective Sergeant Wyatt Oliver. “We frequently discover new leads and evidence which takes multiple detectives working hours and days on end to compile paperwork, write reports and process evidence. As with many of our cases, we will continue working on this for months to come.”
