Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Chief Dobberstein, Because I am not the manager of 137 12th Street, I am not privy to tenants' full or legal names. So although I am sometimes vague about who, and what, and when - I can at least be specific about where. I have had a congenial relationship with the people whom most recently moved into Apartment 1A. My relationship has mostly been with David, who has some sort of brain damage, and whom bums cigarettes off me. I also know his sister, whose name, I just learned, is Athena. A few weeks ago there was a disturbance associated with 1A, where Athena was roaming the parking lot, at 4:30 in the morning, looking for someone. She said she was looking for someone named 'Angie', and that Angie had stolen her cell phone. I later saw Athena arguing with a young woman with dark hair who was leaving the apartment complex, coming from Building 5. I learned, today, that the person Athena was arguing with, that day, was Angie. A few nights ago I reported a young woman with dark hair leaving the premises of 137 12th Street, and returning, 30 to 45 minutes later ... just a few minutes before someone lit my car up with a red laser ... and maybe ten to fifteen minutes before I heard what sounded like a gun being fired, and what sounded like a subsonic round, passing overhead. Connecting all this together ... the young woman I saw, above, was, I am pretty sure, the woman I saw Athena arguing with, a few weeks ago - said to be named Angie. And so I am going to suggest that Angie was perhaps the person who delivered the alleged .22 pistol to 137 12th Street. Just now, Athena asked me to give her brother a ride back from RMH, and we were talking about her pending eviction. I told her about the incident with what I believed was a .22 with what I thought was a laser sight. Athena told me that when her cell phone had been stolen, a few weeks ago, that her husband, who had been in the Navy, had also lost a 9mm pistol and a .22 pistol, and the .22 pistol had a laser sight. I asked her if this had been reported to the police, and she said that it had - but she could not provide me with the incident number. So I am trusting that you know which incident I refer to. Athena also told me that there was rumored to be a drug dealer in Building 5, known as 'Super D' or 'Double D' ... and that he was a source for methamphetamine and heroin. Which is not inconsistent with the foot traffic I have been seeing to and from Building 5 over the past six months to a year, generally after dark, and continuing until 4 AM or so. If this is true it even explains why two teenagers would be coming into the apartment complex early in the morning of 02 January, as reported, earlier this year - those kids weren't coming to mess with my car, they were coming to buy some drugs - probably Mom and Dad had left them at home, alone, for a few days, while they went, ah, skiiing ... and, it seems, maybe the kids felt left out. (-; If I recall correctly the person who lives in the back corner apartment, upstairs, in Building 5, is ALSO named 'David' - if his last name also starts with 'D' then it would seem likely that he is 'Double D'. I don't think Calvin, upstairs, or any of the people downstairs, sell drugs - at least, nothing like methamphetamine, or heroin. I suppose I could be wrong. But Calvin's kids go to the same school as my kids, and so do Nathan's kids, underneath Calvin. I've never seen any signs of drug abuse. I only see one person coming and going from the apartment immediately beneath the problem apartment, in Building 5. No foot traffic, as far as I know. (Now that I think of it, that's where I'd put my monitoring operation - directly underneath the dealers, where I could monitor every syllable. Just sayin'.) It seems almost impossible that you and your officers do not already know about this 'Super D'. And so it does not seem unreasonable to wonder if FPD is allowing this to continue because you are sitting back and identifying the customers, and the customers' customers, and maybe working your way up the supply chain, too. I mean, it wouldn't exactly surprise me if Bubba had already been well and truly busted a few times. He doesn't try very hard to conceal his activities. He almost seems to seek out the seediest people to hang out with. But he's not the only one. Richard Henson (Hensen?) also falls into that category. And maybe even David, in Building 5. Which category am I referring to, you ask? The category of people who are most likely to be paid informants - petty criminals who find it profitable to snitch on other petty criminals in exchange for having their petty crimes ignored. Are these people your informants? Are they being run by the DEA? Or is it the FBI? I just don't see how this level of activity could continue without official sanction. It hasn't escaped my notice that this apartment complex is in a line-of-sight to the FBI office that's said to be on the top floor of the office building over by the CDF HQ. I sure hope you plan to pull the plug on these folks, soon. But I don't mind your holding off until the end of the month - because we'll be out of here on the 28th of May.
