After hearing James' explanation, Jimmy thought for a moment, "James, are you sure it was the Dixie Family?"
James, "I'm sure, very sure. Although there were no records left at the time, I got the information from my predecessor when I took over as sheriff.
The Dixie Family has huge influence in several southern states' underworld, including desperadoes. For the safety of others, they promised that as long as Reina is allowed to leave safely, they will not attack anyone else. We had no choice but to allow Reina to resign and leave normally. Of course, the deceased officer's family received a lot of compensation, as an apology from the Dixie Family."
Jimmy, "I see, so that's why you let him release the hostages and then leave Little Rock the last time Reina appeared there. As long as he's not within our jurisdiction, there won't be any problems, right?"
James, "Right, I can't joke with the lives of officers. Being a sheriff sometimes requires compromises."
