Legendary former FBI Agent Jack Garcia spent much of his life chasing mobsters.
Now the man who infiltrated the Gambino crime family will be hunting down animal abusers as the lead investigator for a Long Island-based animal rescue group, the New York Post reports.
Garcia, who retire from the bureau in 2006, said he’s ready to be a positive change again.
“I went from driving around Gambino captain Greg DePalma to driving my daughter to school. It was a big transition. It took a lot of time to get used to it. So when this opportunity came around . . . I wanted to get involved,” said Garcia, who wrote a book, “Making Jack Falcone,’’ on his undercover work.
“The acts of violence on defenseless animals is as vicious as some of the crimes I’ve investigated. And I’ve seen it all.”
