Two threads in quick succession, but [one of the side stories](http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/crime/article204237669.html) at the bridge article just has to be pointed out. So this guy is a monkey importer who receives an envelope of white power from an animal rights group, but it turns out that he mailed the letter to himself to frame them.

There is something about the lucrative secret world of monkey merchants that just seems so underrepresented in modern fiction. The Mafia? Sure. Drug dealers? Absolutely. But primate pushers? No need to update my Netflix account.

There was a Tom Clancy novel that featured a monkey importer. I can get more details for you if you like.
