Court documents allege that Iza employed off-duty LASD deputies as personal enforcers to target business rivals and perceived threats. Saavedra, leveraging his credentials as a deputy and a task force officer with the US Marshals Service, illegally accessed sensitive law enforcement databases, fabricated search warrant affidavits, and misused his badge to aid Iza’s vendettas.

Prosecutors allege Saavedra secured a search warrant in January 2022 under false pretenses, claiming the target was involved in a firearms investigation. Saavedra provided the victim’s location to Iza, who sent armed individuals to break into the victim’s home.

The attempt failed when the victim fired a warning shot, after which Iza reportedly sent the victim a video of the botched robbery.

In August 2021, LASD deputies allegedly held a victim at gunpoint at Iza’s residence, forcing a $25,000 bank transfer. In October 2021, Iza personally coerced another victim into transferring $127,000 while holding them at gunpoint.

Saavedra also operated a private security firm, Saavedra & Associates LLC, which employed off-duty deputies. Iza reportedly paid $100,000 monthly between 2021 and 2024 for round-the-clock security.

Beyond the alleged extortion racket, Iza’s operations extended to financial fraud. Between 2020 and 2022, he is accused of defrauding Meta Platforms Inc., stealing over $37 million by accessing business accounts and associated credit lines.
