hundreds of thousands of Anom messages and spent months reading them, waking up, reading them, going to my day job, reading more in the evening to build up a picture of Microsoft and his associates and other criminals as well. And I think I felt the same sort of sensation that the FBI must have felt because it was insane. Just every single chat in there is about some sort of really serious crime.

We're going to kill this person. We're going to hunt down this one. We're going to torture this one. We're going to throw grenades through this window. It was genuinely overwhelming.

I read so many messages sent by and about Microsoft that I genuinely started to realize what this person was like. I'd be reading the chat messages, and I think to myself, oh, Microsoft's not going to like that. And then a couple of pages later, he's popping off, shouting at people, saying he's going to kill them. And I'm like, well, I know Microsoft at this point.

I think he's probably going to chill out now. He's got to have his system.

Four pages later, he's all chill and we're back to dealing amphetamine. And that is the sensation that some of these agents got, I've heard from. And, I mean, I talk to a lot of criminals. I see a lot of criminal behavior. But it was incredibly unusual to just have... sort of the callousness presented in front of me where they're literally ordering assassinations with, like, emojis.

And at one point, Microsoft asks, can I get a bulk discount if I have a hitman do three or four hits at once? And, like, that is something you would think would be in a movie, but it would be a little bit too on the nose. And it's like, this... This is real, and it really blew me away.

Smiley face, sunglasses, emojis, thumbs up, crying, laughing came up a lot. Whether like, ha ha ha ha ha, you know, we've done that. Or just strings after they'd actually successfully done an assassination. Like, they don't care. This is just part of their business, and they order an assassination with the casualness that, like, you would order, like, takeout food.
