SHREVEPORT, LA (KSLA) -
Extra security has been brought in for what authorities describe as a "high-risk" federal trial in Shreveport.

The man on trial, 55-year-old Francisco Antonio Colorado Cessa, aka "Pancho," was previously convicted in Texas for money laundering as part of the Los Zetas Mexican drug cartel.

In that trial, prosecutors said that after their drug lord died, Cessa remained loyal to his old friend's criminal organization, laundering drug money through the U.S. quarter horse industry. Los Zetas, known to the U.S. as the largest drug cartel in Mexico, recently began identifying itself as 'Cartel del Norte,' or Cartel of the North.

So for the past 3 days, Helicopters have been circling the Federal Courthouse, and FBI agents with dogs have been sniffing all the vehicles in a 2 block radius. They're looking for bombs I'd guess.

Then this happens yesterday...

I'm no FBI agent, but I sense a bit of frickery going on here.
