I was thinking this as well, in addition to trying to imagine why that many people would be involved. I'm surprised that no more arrests have been made yet. Maybe LE thought Garcia would sing more than he is/has?
I'd like to think [hope] that LE wouldn't take down someone & charge him with capital murder based on the assumption they could convince him to turn states evidence, thus risk blowing the entire case. ‎
The suspect is well known to LE, I'm sure they're very familiar with his psychological profile. He seems to be very 'connected' (aka system savvy.) Most charges haven't resulted in a conviction, and successful convictions were followed by sentences disproportionately lenient to the crime. I imagine he had a more than just a public defender for his 2012 [strong armed robbery & resisting a police officer with violence] conviction. He was sentenced to one day in jail and given credit for 'time served' which, according to reports, consisted of approximately one day in jail before bail was posted. The armed robbery was in 2012, he wasn't *sentenced* until 2014, approximately three months after DM's murder. The sentence was in stark contrast to that of his parter in crime, he was given 8 years in federal prison. *I'd like to know who Garcia had for legal counsel during that time.. ‎

The direction this case is headed is obvious, as is the fact this isn't your everyday 'dumb crook' crime, but that doesn't mean the suspect himself isn't a dumb crook. LE isn't interested in the suspect, they want those responsible for executing an innocent man via a hired hit. IMHO, those individuals are probably, at a minimum, affiliated with highly educated *elites,* some in the field of criminal law. The problem with elites is they can be educated beyond their intelligence AND clear out of common sense. Their arrogant belief that they're smarter than everyone else usually leads to their eventual demise. FWIW, I don't think for one second that orthodox rabbis were involved in
any way with the murder of Dan Markel.

If I understand correctly, the Crime Stoppers reward and the anonymous reward combined consists of $125,000. Authorities will not say if the reward has been claimed, which means it probably has, which means they have more than just a *spaghetti tossing* strategy to choose from in their arsenal of weaponry.
Eyewitnesses to the arrest said local LE, the DEA and FBI tore Garcia's car apart, noting the presence of luggage in the back seat. I believe the arrest was made because he was about to flee, he knew they were closing in and they simply couldn't wait any longer. I think LE has what they *need,* but you can never have too much when going up against a well connected gang of elites. They still have a long way to go. ‎
