Jorge Rivera admitted that he agreed to cooperate with the feds when he was arrested by ICE. He agreed to be an informant in exchange for his release. He also said that after his release he began driving Tekashi again, and it was his vehicle that contained the cameras that recorded the footage from Tekashi’s alleged kidnapping.
