base your answers on this scenario "The Mandalorian" is the national president of the Hellfire Pistons Motorcycle Gang, an outlaw motorcycle gang based in Los Angeles, California. Over the past several months, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) have been conducting a long-term investigation on several members of this gang and their alleged criminal activity: organized crime, motor vehicle theft, and the transportation and subsequent selling of narcotics and illegal/prohibited weapons in interstate commerce. In order to obtain evidence of the aforementioned criminal activities, a confidential human source (CHS) successfully infiltrated the organization and gained membership to its ranks. The CHS advised federal law enforcement officials that he had personally witnessed the Mandalorian sanction the murder of a former Hellfire Pistons Motorcycle Gang member named "Negan" because he "jumped" another gang member during a drunken argument. Negan then stole the victim's motorcycle and 10 grams of methamphetamine. After the "hit" was approved, the CHS personally witnessed John Wick, a convicted felon on parole, execute Negan using a semiautomatic pistol that was stolen in a pawn shop burglary the evening before. The CHS also informed federal agents that the Hellfire Pistons routinely host dogfighting matches in an abandoned industrial park on the outskirts of the city. In order to gain access to the commercial property, gang members routinely cut padlocks that secure the enclosed area. The CHS advised that several participants, including other outlaw motorcycle gang members, travel from out of state to attend the illegal dogfighting matches and to fight their dogs. While attending one of the events, and at the direction of federal law enforcement officials, the CHS purchased 20 grams of heroin and an MP-5 submachine gun with etched-out serial numbers from a 17-year-old gang member named Deadpool. In addition to these purchases, the CHS also placed bets on dogfighting matches with "Bookie," the organizer of the animal fighting events. Gamblers who win can receive either money or stolen property that is typically obtained from the Hellfire Pistons' routine burglaries of commercial properties throughout the Los Angeles area
