On 10/27/2009 Agents from the PBCRA met with AUSA Ann Marie Villa Fana and Attorney Brad Edwards. Edwards reported Alfredo Rodriguez was served with a Federal Subpoena for documents. Rodriguez has refused to turn the subpoenaed documents over unless Edwards paid him $50,000.00. Rodriguez was interviewed by the FBI in 2007 regarding the same information he is now trying to sell to Edwards. The USA's Office believes Rodriguez may have lied to investigators and that the documents may have been in his possession at the time of his interview. These documents may contain evidence against an individual suspected of soliciting minors for sex. Miami plans to have a UCE introduced to Rodriguez and set a meeting to which Rodriguez will bring the documents he claims to have in his possession. The "Show Money" will be utilized if Rodriguez demands to see the money before producing the documents. After producing the documents, Rodriguez will be arrested for Obstruction of Justice.
