Subject under surveillance Ronald “Mickey D” McDonald was observed in conference with Louie “The Burger” King. One of our junior undercover agents had succeeded in flipping “The Burger” two weeks earlier in exchange for significant reduction of a pending health code violation fine. The following is a transcript of the recording obtained via remote device carried on King’s body between 11:33 p.m. and 11:38 p.m.
