Luke Healy is an Orange County (Orlando) Deputy Sheriff with 27 years of service. His current assignment, and last, is as a task force agent with the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation (MBI). MBI is a Florida organized crime task force that was formed in 1978 and is responsible for long-term investigations into drug-trafficking organizations, vice crimes, public corruption, and human-trafficking.
During his time with MBI, Luke has conducted numerous investigations with a focus on drug-trafficking organizations fueled by either foreign or domestic cartels. Typically, these investigations begin at a local level, once larger sources are identified, go State-wide, throughout the US, and internationally (Mexico, Canada, South America). Luke has used a variety of techniques that have dismantled these organizations. The techniques he has found to be most advantageous are wire-taps. He has been an affiant on over 100 wire orders and has found a specialty in wire-tap intrusions and social media wire-taps of platforms like Facebook and Instagram. These intrusions include court-ordered intrusion and installation of surreptitious cameras and microphones in places like businesses, trap-houses and vehicles. These wires produce communications that can clear up blind spots in the intelligence gathered from ordinary cellular wires.
These investigations have netted hundreds of arrests and successful prosecutions to include racketeering, human trafficking, drug trafficking, armed robbery/home invasions, kidnapping, and homicide. Investigations such as these have made the MBI a go-to resource for the FBI, DEA, IRS, ATF, HSI, USPIS, and local agencies who have hit a roadblock in their pursuit of justice.
