It was a quiet winter evening, Christmas was in the air. Marci wasn't in her
usually
holiday depression, Hope had come back into her life, as a Texas Millionaire.
She still
couldn't believe it was possible, but he was coming to see her to visit
her. Her mind was
running wild, I could do a commercial for my online service
she thought, spokesperson
for romance in cyberspace. She chuckled at her self,
knowing that she would most likely
be disappointed again but, she needed this
precious moments of hope. She watched the
clock, time had slowed to an incredible
pace, she swore the second hand had stopped, oh
there is no second hand, it was
digital 7:58, he was to arrive at 8:00. Oh no she ran to the
mirror and looked
at her weathered face and graying hair, "I should have put on make up
she
thought out loud". She brushed her hair for the fourth time in an hour as she
watched
the clock advance, 8:02, 8:03, 8:04...
"Shit I knew he wasn't coming she cried out loud", startling her
cats who scampered
away. Tears began to well up in her eyes and then the door
bell rang. She wiped the tears
away and looked at herself in the mirror again
I am acting like a school girl she thought.
The door bell again, she brushed
the cat fur from her skirt and put on her best smile. She
opened the door. "Marci
I presume,"
"Were you expecting someone else", she giggled and
blushed, as she gave the handsome young man a once over.
Then he handed her
some papers, I am special agent Donovan with the FBI special cybernet force and this
is a
warrant to search you house for drugs, pornographic materials and pirated computer
programs". Marci burst into tears.
"Do you understand this action?"
he asked as several other men entered and began
opening drawers and cupboards.
one of the men turned to him and said" I got some hot stuff here",
as he looked thru
folders of her correspondences.
" Sounds like this
guy John Dick wants to kinky things with her and some animals". She
stared
in the eyes of Donovan and said "You son of a bitch you're John Dick aren't
you"!
This warrant also allows us to remove any or all records as they may
relate to the
trafficking of drugs, pornography or copyrighted materials"
"Face the wall legs spread arms apart", he leaned in close and whispered
if you can do half of what you claim
in your letters I take it real easy on you",
while coping a frontal feel. He then took a night stick and ran it up the inside
of each leg making sure to make full contact at the apex each time."Hey I got
a bag of pot here" one of the other men cried out.
"Hands behind your
back Marci you're under arrest. He cuffed her and lead her out
the door, when
they arrived at an unmarked car he said "I'll put the cuffs in front in you
demonstrate that magic tongue for me".
She spit in his face and
he shoved her into the car. "Another god damned twit" he shut
the door
and went back into the house. She sat in the back seat for over an hour as she
watched
the men carryout boxes of papers, computer disks, personal property. She
flipped
out as see watched a tow truck remove her car, all the time the neighbors
watching
and chatting among themselves.
"How did this happen, why me?
she buried
her face into the plastic seat and cried herself to sleep.
She awoke as the
car pulled into a parking lot along side of a small office building at
the edge
of town.
"What are we doing here," she asked suspiciously?
"This
is where my office is ", he replied
She was lead inside to a small office
where she was introduced to special agent Markles.
he explained that the cybernet
task force was a joint effort between the FBI,
AFT,FCC,DEA and IRS.
"IRS",
she asked?
"Yes," Markles continued the contraband we are looking
for often involve exchanges
of cash and other valuables and the IRS likes to
make sure it gets it's fair share too. You
will find that all your valuable
personal property has been confiscated until you can prove
legal ownership, also
your banking accounts will be frozen by morning.
Agent Donovan entered the room
"Marci you are in big trouble,we got you on
possession of drug charges,
possession of pornographic materials as defined by sec
234.22 sections a, d,
and k. Possession, and distribution of of unregistered copyrighted
computer software
section 556.2 a, b, and c. In addition we found a nice little single shot
22
hidden in your night stand, ladies special but it couldn't save you from a dog much
less
someone out to hurt you. And since you have possession of all these little
programs,
which do have value, if you had paid for them the IRS is interested
in collecting its share
of the value and will be conducting its own investigation.
I would say all together were
looking at 20 or so years in a women's prison facility,
unless of course you would be
willing to co-operate with us in some on going
investigations.
The color was completely drained from her face, as she looked
at the two men
opposite the desk. "what do you want me to do?, she asked
as the tears began to roll
down her cheeks. Agent Donovan responded "We
would like you to set up some buys for
us."
"what do you want to
buy?" she asked as she wiped the tears from her face.
Anything weapons ,
drugs, computer programs, pornographic video tapes etc... If its
contraband we're
interested", Markles finished for Donovan. Donovan jumped back in I
have
hear a list of people who you already corresponded with and what we want you to
purchase
from each individual. Marci looked over the list. She mumbled out loud
"pictures
of naked little boys or girls, cocaine, crack, plastic explosives?" "Who
in the hell
do you think I'm involved with?" Like Adolf23, I don't think
he has ever mentioned
anything about drugs of any sort. Donovan smiled "To
quote from your personal
correspondence files" I would love to soar like
an eagle high over the rocky mountains",
an obvious reference to drugs."
"you guys are the ones who are fucking high" she responded.
"What
do I get in return," she calmly asked, trying to cover for her outburst.
"that's
simple," Markles responded," you get you freedom, and we can probably see
clear
to let you have your car back after you pay impound fees. I doubt a judge
would allow us
to keep it with such a large lean on it. You can have you computer
back after we delete
any unauthorized programming, and all your personal files
after we have made copies.
We keep your drugs, paraphernalia, unauthorized programs,
your pistol and all cash
confiscated as well as any correspondence that
can be used as evidence against you or any
other parties.
" How am I
supposed to pay for any of this if your keeping my cash and freezing all my
accounts?"
"Well
we didn't freeze your bank accounts and credit cards the IRS did as for the other
problems , they are yours you should have thought about it for you surrounded
your self
with radicals and perverts." replied Donovan.
"And what
if I don't cooperate?" asked Marci.
"then we will be taking a ride upstate
to the federal women's correctional facility where
you will stay until someone
raises bail for you", explained Donovan.
"Are you willing to cooperate?
asked Markles.
Marci was becoming more and more angry, as she thought to herself
"I didn't do a Damn thing". "How much will bail be", she
asked?
Donavan answered "The Judge has been real cooperative most arrests
$100,000 but we got lots of charges on you.
"Alright I'll do what ever
you say", Marci burst into tears again.
Come on I'll take you home",
Donovan took her by the arm and lead her out of the room,
"But first we got
some e-mail to send I got your system all set up in the other room."
"If
you got my system, my mailing lists, your pre-written letters, what do you need me
for
do it yourself!"
"That could be misconstrued as entrapment,
we wouldn't want that now, would we?"
Afterwards I'll take you home and
you can show me your tongue. They sent out some
e-mail and got an immediate response
from Dogtags, It said "What are you fucking nuts",
Marci began to cry
again...
