The crowd in Josie's was predominately African-American and Latino...a few Asians and a few whites..but they were young hipster types..or millennials..
A white guy like Lt. Frank Hutton had cop written all over him...He fooled no one..
Especially not the man known as Pink.. He sighed as he saw Lt. Hutton coming towards him...He despised the man...
"Hi ya Pink...Long time no see."said Sgt. Hutton..
"And I'd like to keep it that way.."said Pink...
"That anyway to talk to an old friend.."
''We aint friends..What do you want?" he asked..
"Information.... a guy, plays himself off as a high roller...Plays in a lot of the big crap games...Illegal and legal...gets in a lot of debt , a lot of hot water....Then a month later...pays off all of his debts..just like that...You hear anything about a guy like that?"asked Lt. Hutton...
"That sounds like Dewey....Man, I don't know how he does it...He was into the Russians and the Chinese for a fat load..nearly 200 large last spring...They had some heavy dudes looking to break him up...Then just like that...He shows up, pays everybody off with interest... You'd think he'd be smart, stop gambling...but he can't help himself...He gets in the same trouble in A.C. I hear...They had a contract out on him...Then he shows up...Pays everybody he owes off in full and it's all love love.."said Pink...
"This Dewey person got an address?" asked Lt. Hutton..
"He don't stay too many places too long, but he has a girlfriend named Kat...Katrina Beasley..She lives uptown in the Freshwater Condos...He crashes there sometimes..."said Pink..
"Now see? Was that hard Pink???..Just for that...I'm gonna do right by ya... Hey Gus....Here's fifty dollars...That's for his next few drinks...Thanks Pinkie...See ya around pal.."said Lt. Hutton..
"Gee Thanks..Not if I see you first!"said Pink sarcastically..
Later on that night-
Sissy Van Buren and Angie Belton Barlow were spotted drinking..
Pink walked over and sat in between them both...
"What is there, a special for cops tonight?" asked Pink...
"You got something against cops Pink?" asked Sissy , with a sexy smile that turned him on..
"Yeah, what you got against cops?" asked Angie seductively...
Unlike Hutton these two did not have cop written all over them...If he didn't know for a fact that they were cops...He'd never picture them as that!
"I got nothin against you two....but that goldbrick Frank Hutton is another story...I'm no fan of his.."said Pink..
"He was in here?" asked Sissy...
"Yeah...asking me about some degenerate gambler..Some loser named Dewey Brenson…"said Pink.
Angie's eyes perked up...God she was sexy he thought..
"Dewey, a guy, plays himself off as a high roller...Plays in a lot of the big crap games...Illegal and legal...gets in a lot of debt , a lot of hot water....Then a month later...pays off all of his debts..just like that...You hear anything about a guy like that?" she asked...
"Yeah, that's who he was asking about...You guys working together? Dewey in trouble?" asked Pink..
"We just want to know why Frank Hutton was so interested..You know where this Dewey lives?" asked Sissy..
"No, but I told him he has a girl that lives in the Freshwater Condos..Her name is "Kat" Katrina Beasely..."said Pink..
Sissy smiled-
"If you don't know something Pink-"said Sissy..
"It's not worth knowing.."said Angie..
"Uh don't I get a kiss or something for my help?" Pink asked slyly...
"Raincheck"said Sissy...
"Raincheck" said Angie...
II-
At our headquarters another interesting thing is being discussed...
"I got a text from Siss and Angie, they are on their way here now...The ATF guys discovered something...Something that you may find interesting.."said Sharon..
"I'm all ears"said my wife Carlotta, who was sitting on my lap and getting me harder by the second.
I kept rubbing her legs and running my hands under her skirt..
"I know this had to be good Sharon...You wouldn't call us while we were gone for the day if it wasn't." said Tyriq..
"Yes...what is it Sharon?" asked Sirena..
"In that last hold up....The proprieter fought with your doer, and was struck with the butt of that glock...It came off...part of it and it had a serial number on it..The FBI did a cross reference check with the Philadelphia Police Department...Turns out...This glock...used in all 8 of your Pawn Shop Hold ups and murders is a Cop's gun...A Cop's gun reported stolen about five years ago...It's also a ballistics match to a Pawn Shop Hold up and murder in Las Vegas, earlier this year.."said Sharon..
"A Cops Gun?" said Duke..
''A Las Vegas Murder?" said Jimmy..
"Our 8 murders?" said Hop...
"Oh there is more...Tell them Hazel.."said Sharon..
"The two corpses we found..Micky Dolenz and James Butler..The shell casings and this gun are a match to those two murders...Which occurred before the cop's gun was stolen..."said Hazel.
''So whoever owned this gun, killed two people, then the gun was stolen. And whoever has the gun now has been holding up Pawn Shops and killing people.."I said..
"That's right...8,possibly 9 people that we know of.."said Sharon.
"The original owner would probably want to get that gun back from whoever is killing all these Pawn Shop proprieters before we get it and find out it ties him to a double murder..."said Carlotta...
"You said it was a cop's gun...Who is the cop?" asked Hop..
"You won't believe this....Detective, now Lieutenant Frank Hutton!!!!" said Sharon...
We were all shocked..
"That explains a lot "said Sissy ,who was told about the situation when she arrived a little later..
''Why he wouldn't make a positive ID and why he just happen to be tracking this guy with a Riot Pump shotgun...He was going to take him out and get rid of that gun..."said Angie..
"Our suspect has a girlfriend...She lives in the Freshwater Condos...We don't have time for back up..We gotta do this quick....Get your Kevlar vests and trauma plates on...Let's go.."said Sissy, who cocked her glock... "Thanks Sharon..."said Sissy..
"Always Glad to help my favorite guys out.." said Sharon..
III-
At The Freshwater Condos...
The bed was squeaking like crazy......The headboard was slamming against the wall..
Dewey was losing his mind....He hadn't ventured out into the streets within 48 hours..He had no idea every cop in the city was looking for him..
"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU, ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" he moaned...
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Deweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyy!"she squealed...
"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW SWWEEET BABYYYYYY! YESSSSS!" he moaned..
He turned Kat over and entered her missionary style...
The bed was squeaking like crazy and her headboard was rattling...The neighbors could hear them..
Kat had had three intense orgasms...she was amazed at Dewey's stamina...He didn't want to stop once he got started...
'OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW LAWWWWWWD!" he exclaimed..
"DEWEY...YES..YESSSSSSS.....OH YEAH...OH YEAH...OUUUUUUU YESSSSS." she squealed..She was having another orgasm....her fourth...
EIGHT TO NINE HOURS of non stop love making slipped aimlessly by....
They both got up, showered and dressed afterwords...
"Dewey you've screwed my brains out the past day or two....You intend to do anything else? Like look for that straight job you were talking about or did you just say that so you could get in my panties?" asked Kat...
"Just showin you how much I love you baby...I told ya , things are going to be different...I swear...I'm free and clear..I don't owe nobody..I don't have to look over my shoulder.." he said..
"I'm Hungry Dewey." said Kat..
She decided to table the conversation...She was still feeling the afterglow of great sex..
"Horny?? After the way I've been givin it to you?" said Dewey...
"I said Hungry idiot!!!...I have some money...There is a diner downstairs..."said Kat...
"Save your money...What do you want? I'll bring it up.."said Dewey..
''A Breakfast sandwich on a Bagel...and some Coffee.."said Kat..
"You got it baby!"said Dewey, who got on the elevator and headed downstairs..
Lt. Hutton was getting off the elevator at the same time.. He cautiously walked toward the room..He drew his service revolver..
He knocked on the door..
''Dewey is that you? back already?" said Kat..
Lt. Hutton kicked the door in...The door slammed into Kat's face causing her nose to bleed...
He aimed his gun at her..
"WHERE IS HE? I KNOW HE WAS HERE!" he said...Looking at the unmade bed and seeing lingerie on the side of the bed..
"He went downstairs!!!...He went downstairs to get me some food..He's coming back...don't hurt me." she said in between tears....
He knew now that he'd have to kill both of them ..He regretted having to kill this girl...but she'd seen his face...She knew he was a cop..
IV-
We arrived outside of the Freshwater Condos..
Hazel and I sat in the car....
"Thanks for the call Siss...How do you want to handle this?" said Lt. Danny Ho, who arrived with six uniforms..
"Carlotta, Rico, Jimmy, Take three uniforms and head up the stairs... said Sissy.
''We're On It Boss Lady" said Carlotta...
"You Three Guys...Follow us."said Tyriq..
"Let's Do This." said Jimmy..''We're On It Boss Lady" said Carlotta...
"You Three Guys...Follow us."said Tyriq..
"Sirena, you and Hop take the other three and head up the back way...That way we have both ways covered.."said Sissy..
"Let's Go Partner."said Sirena..
"You three guys..follow us.."said Hop..
and Duke, Angie and Danny, cover the lobby and the front.."said Sissy..
and Duke, Angie and Danny, cover the lobby and the front.."said Sissy..
"I got you covered."said Angie...cocking her glock...
"Let's go.."said Lt. Danny Ho..
They all swung into action...
They all swung into action...
Sissy walked around ...They were short handed, but they had to work fast..
And in the room upstairs..
"WHAT'S TAKING HIM SO LONG?" screamed an antsy Lt. Hutton...
Lt. Hutton heard footsteps in the hallway...
He cocked his Glock...
"It's over Lieutenant! We know everything...We know about the two gangsters you shot...on orders from Beanie Franklin...."said Carlotta ,aiming her glock at him..
"Let That girl go!!...Don't make it hard on yourself.."said Tyriq..
"You guys got it all wrong....This is the girlfriend of your suspect...He's been killing all of those people, robbing all those Pawn shops...His name is Dewey..."said Lt. Hutton..Sweating like a stuck pig..
"We know that!!...We know he's around here somewhere.."said Jimmy...
"He probably stole your gun...Not knowing it already had two bodies on it...the bodies of two cop killers we were looking for...Cop Killers who could identify you as being the information man for
Beanie Franklin...Who took over, after you put his boss behind bars...Were you into him for money?"asked Sirena...
"I owed him....I was into one of his Crap Games for half a million...I would have never been able to pay him...So I gave him information on all of the Playas he wanted out of the way...I took his boss down for orchestrating that cop killing....Only those two Gumbas...They said if they went to jail they were going to rat me out, they had figured out who I was.....I had just made Sergeant...No way...No Way.....I had to do it!!...I made Sergeant....I paid off most of my debt....I was nearly free and clear...Then I got robbed!!!...My gun got stolen and that freak began holding up Pawn shops and killing people with my old service revolver.."he said.
"So if you got to him first before we did...You'd execute him and get rid of that gun for good.."said Hop...
"My whole career down the toilet...I was almost free and clear...Damn it..You guys find him first and get that gun and I'm toast....No, I couldn't allow that! " he said and before anyone could stop him...He put his gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger, blowing his brains out!!!
On The Streets , We all heard a scream!!!...A woman's scream!, then saw a flash!
\
"Oh My God!~" said Sissy...
"I had hoped it wouldn't come to this." I said..
"Oh God....I hope none of us was hurt."said Hazel..
"Look who we caught!" said a Happy Detective Edwin "Duke" Baylor..
He Had Dewitt "Dewey" Brenson in handcuffs...
Angie had his Glock in a plastic bag...
"Signed ,Sealed and delivered Siss…" said Angie..
"We nabbed him trying to run after we heard a gunshot..."said Lt. Danny Ho..
Carlotta, Tyriq, Jimmy, Sirena, Hop and a young lady, followed by six uniforms all walked out of the building..
"Call the Medical Examiner Sissy..."said Carlotta..
"It was Hutton...He was holding her hostage...waiting for laughing boy here to come back with her food.."said Tyriq, who pointed to the sobbing Kat and passed her her breakfast sandwich and her coffee..
"Thank You.."she said, sobbing..
"Hutton confessed to everything..He killed Butler and Dolenz..They were going to rat him out if they went down for killing the cop...He was on Beanie Franklin's payroll, giving him information for years..He was into him for a half million in gambling debts..."said Jimmy...
''After he confessed...He ate his gun.."said Sirena..
Sissy looked at Hop who used to vomit after seeing blood and gore..
\
"You okay Hop?" she asked..
"I'm Fine Lieutenant...Thank you for asking..." he said.
The Six Cops arrived..
"Get Someone up there..." they said..
Kat took one last look at Dewey..
"You'll never change will you? Always in some kind of trouble.." she said to him...
He shrugged as the officers read him his rights and put him in the patrol car....
I looked at Kat, I asked her..
"How did you ever get involved with a guy like him?" I asked..
"I don't know...Just lucky I guess.." she said and sighed..
We all watched as the body of Lieutenant Frank Hutton was wheeled away....
Another case down......
EPILOUGE-
Dewitt "Dewey" Brenson was convicted of Eight counts of 1st Degree Murder while in commission of Robberies and sentenced to die by lethal injection because of special circumstances...
He was also convicted in absentia of the murder in Las Vegas....bringing his total to 9 murders..He was also sentenced to death by Lethal Injection if Pennsylvania by some miracle ever released him.
The city breathed a sigh of relief with him off the streets and the Pawn Shop Murders solved..
The Deputy of Operations was ecstatic that the murders of Dolenz and Butler were also finally laid to rest...
He was so happy He gave Sissy and all of her detectives commondations and holiday bonuses in their paychecks...It was on Television...
And At Curly's Bar...
Lt. Tragg was watching the entire thing on Television...
Captain Eddie Cantrell proudly placed the accommodation medal on all of them..
Sissy, Danny Ho, Carlotta,Jimmy,Tyriq, Sirena, Hop, Duke and Angie..
"JOB WELL DONE GUYS!" He said proudly...
"THANK YOU SIR" they all said in unison...
I sat with the other proud spouses...Eddie C., Sissy's husband, Dr. Hazel Baylor, Duke's Wife and Deputy FBI/ATF Special Agent in charge, Sharon Hopkins, Hop's wife...and clapped and took photos..What a nice way to end the year...
And miles away at Curly's Bar....Lt. Tragg was fuming, watching it on Television...
''Will you look at that? One more day and I would have been up there with them...I helped..."said Lt. Tragg...
"You helped? You took down some doors with them...One night..He wasn't in any of those places.."said Curly...
''And Frank Hutton...on Beanie Franklin's payroll!! who woulda thought that he was dirty...Mannnn."said Lt. Tragg..
"They caught Franklin yet?" asked Curly..
"No...he fled..They raided his home...everything was gone...THE FBI has a warrant out for him."said Lt. Tragg...
Just then, he saw ADA Karen Page..
"VA VA VA VOOOOOM! Look at her....Curls...I'm going home with her tonight if it's the last thing I do...She looks loaded."said Lt. Tragg...
"Guess again lover boy."said Curly, who pointed..
HARD BOTTOM TV HOST B.L. Benz was with her..
They were kissing passionately....
"Geeeez,,,,I can't catch a break!"lamented Lt. Tragg...
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYBODY!
