Benjamin William Mejias wanted special access to Orlando-area strip clubs and nightclubs.
To do so, the 41-year-old convicted felon posed as a DEA agent, even wearing a shirt with the bureau’s initials and carrying fake badges, ABC News reports.
Meijas is in the Orange County Jail on federal charges of impersonating a federal agent and possessing a firearm.
Meijas has a criminal record of burglaries.
Meijas was arrested by Orlando police and the FBI Orlando Safe Streets Task Force.
