Slade used his federal position to run interference on anyone who tried to stop them, even Metro-Dade Vice when one of their own is killed by Zamora trying to complete a drug deal with Armando Rojas. Slade then prevented the use of buy money for Zamora, forcing the department to use Rojas' unimpounded buy money, a serious breach of procedure. Slade's role was eventually exposed by Vice. He was arrested for interfering with Vice's operations and conspiring with Zamora on the attempted hit of the Cuban Deputy Prison director by the commandos.
