Jacob opened up to him more than anyone else I've spoken to.

I think he was just ready to be done with it all.

He had almost a feeling of relief when we met with him, and yeah, there were some points where it felt like he was upset with Levon and, but, you know, he's upset with himself mostly.

Once it all got before him and hit him, the amount of fraud he committed and the amount of lies he said, his facade was crumbled down.

He, I think, just looked at himself and like, "I'm a bad, terrible person.

I'm just a total scumbag."

Even the agents working this case couldn't believe what a shit show the industry was.

It's pretty obnoxious when I look at, like, how easy it was.

For starters, Jacob's production plant was built in an unusual spot.

This little town up in northern Utah, it's just sitting there in the middle of the desert.

It's a preposterous place for a fuel plant.

No one's creating this stuff in the mountains light years away from ports, right? It doesn't make any sense.

He drives up the I-15 and hides out at the turnoff near the WRE plant.

He sat out there in his car and just watched the plant for days.

He just watched trucks, and he's like, "All right.

They're claiming so many millions of gallons a year of biodiesel.
