09-03-18 Jury: Ex-FBI-agent guilty in Calif. robbery plot
SANTA ANA, CALIF. (AP) - A jury has convicted a former FBI agent and another man of plotting to rob a drug stash house.

Jurors reached the verdict Wednesday in the trial of 44-year-old Vo Duong Tran, a former agent from New Orleans.

Tran and 36-year-old Yu Sung Park were arrested in July and accused of planning to rob what they thought was a drug stash house in Orange County but was actually part of an FBI sting operation.

Authorities say they planned to arm themselves with a machine gun and an assault rifle.

The defendants were convicted of conspiracy to obstruct commerce by robbery, interstate travel to commit a crime with a firearm, possession of a firearm in furtherance of a violent crime and possession of a machine gun.

Ok let me get this right.....

An ex FBI agent had the bright idea to rob a drug house, but he was not able to figure out it was a FBI sting operation????

WTH?????

I guess thats why he is no longer an FBI agent ...rofl

Wonder who dropped the dime on them for trying to get the machine gun?

Next stop for the dynamic duo.. PMITA prison.

this guy should be put in the running for an honorable mention Darwin Award
