An augmented fourteen-man team of the SAO — Special Prosecutions Unit — was organized for a pre-dawn raid armed with a warrant for illegal weapons. It was there that they offered him a position on the Central Committee as the chief of staff and asked him to serve as the national spokesman for the BPP. He joined the Party and quickly rose in the organization becoming Director of Chapter security and Hampton's bodyguard.
