Jimmy reported the four locations directly to Hatten, and he ignored the rest, because it was almost December and his work was coming up, and now fishing and learning had become his priority.
It happened that during this period, the gang members who had been suppressed for two months began to move again. The impact of 911 was gradually fading, and the intensity of police patrols slowly returned to normal.
In the past few days, Jimmy has been dispatched several times in a row. Simply because of the shortage of police manpower, the dispatch center had to notify the supporting police force to handle daily disputes and ordinary alarm incidents. It is conceivable that these gang members who have been bored for two months will once How troublesome it would be to be freed.
Of course, another reason for Jimmy's increased frequency of dispatches is that the county police are responsible for too many areas and there is always a shortage of manpower. The county police are different from the city police. The county police responsible for a larger area only have a few dozen people, and they have to work in separate shifts. The Little Rock Police Department has 3,400 police officers, and the number gap is very large.
As gang members began to carry out a large number of activities, racing, escaping from the police, fights, thefts, robberies, illegal possession of drugs, and illegal possession of weapons, these cases exploded. Compared with the previous two months, every patrol officer was busier. I didn’t have time to have a serious lunch, so I just grabbed a burger and ate it while driving to the next place.
In fact, the various 911 calls that patrol officers handle every day are all trivial matters and minor crimes. Serious crimes only account for 1-3% of the calls. During this period, these trivial matters alone fill up the police force.
At around 5 p.m., Jimmy responded to the dispatch center notification again to handle a domestic violence case. Jimmy drove to the suburbs and arrived outside the house where the caller had called him. He parked the car and walked towards the door. His eyes were opened in advance. There were two adults arguing inside. The tall man waved his arms as if he was really arguing about something. There seemed to be something on the ground. Some chairs and other things were scattered and it looked like they had taken action.
"Dongdong." Jimmy stood on the side of the door and knocked. "Pulaski County Police, please open the door."
The tall man inside went to the door. He opened it and saw Jimmy.
"Oh, f**k, butcher?" the man suddenly shouted as he looked Jimmy up and down.
Jimmy: "Huh? Do you know me?" Although Jimmy is wearing sunglasses, his appearance really stands out, which is understandable.
Man: "Of course, of course. What can I do?"
Jimmy: "Someone called the police and reported domestic violence and noise complaints here. Can you tell me what happened?"
The man waved his hand hurriedly: "No, no, it's just an ordinary couple quarreling. There is no domestic violence, not at all. Maybe our voices are a bit loud. I will apologize to the neighbor. I promise."
The woman in the room also walked to the door. She heard the man's words and suddenly said: "No, we are quarreling, he..."
The man suddenly reached out and covered the woman's mouth. He smiled and said to Jimmy, "Sorry, she's a little excited. I'll have a chat with her and wait a moment."
The man covered the woman's mouth and pushed her toward the house, and whispered in her ear. Jimmy couldn't hear everything clearly, but it didn't seem like their actions were high-risk coercive actions, so they didn't stop him.
Since this man recognized himself, there is a high probability that he is also a gang member. Since he did not draw a gun and shoot at Jimmy, Jimmy can also guess the content of the conversation when he brought the woman into the house. There are more things going on now. If he If you had any sense, you would have let him go today. Domestic violence is too common in the United States, and the woman didn't seem to be hurt.
….
Jimmy waited two or three minutes before the man and woman returned to the door.
Man: "I'm sorry for bothering you to come over and deal with it. We're fine, not at all. We'll go and apologize to the neighbor later for disturbing him."
Jimmy: "Well, let's go together."
Man: "Of course, no problem, go now."
He pulled the woman toward the next door, and Jimmy followed behind. He watched them knock on the door and call out the neighbor. The two parties talked for a while, and then they returned.
Jimmy raised the index and middle fingers of his right hand and hooked his fingers at the man. When he came to Jimmy, he stretched out his left hand and put his arm around his neck, whispering: "You know I am
Who, I shouldn't be here to deal with your trivial matters, but you gang people are making too much trouble these days. I hope you can give them a message, try to be peaceful and don't make trouble. I'm not here all the time. So easy to talk to. "
The man lowered his head and nodded, looking at Jimmy's right hand holding the handle of the gun, not daring to say anything.
Jimmy let go of him, removed his right hand from the handle of the gun, shook hands with him, and said, "Since there's nothing wrong, I'll go back. Goodbye."
The man shook Jimmy's hand and said, "Goodbye."
Jimmy got in the car, radioed the dispatch center, and drove back to the police station.
Seeing Jimmy leaving, the man breathed a sigh of relief and took the woman back home.
Jimmy returned to the police station and was still sighing. The guy he met this time was pretty good and he could communicate with him. It didn't cost him anything and didn't cause him any trouble. You have to know that you have to take a domestic violence victim back to the police station. Those who write reports, how good it is now, nothing happens.
After spending a little time, Jimmy hurriedly left work and left. He also had enough reasons. He had submitted a resignation application to the police station and was about to end his career as a county police officer in mid-December. This was not the time to work overtime unless there was a need. Something special.
As a result of Jimmy's warning, the number of 911 calls in the suburbs decreased significantly the next day. Jimmy was only dispatched twice a day, which was already very good compared to the previous two days.
After receiving the four targets identified by Jimmy, Agent Hatten also arranged for personnel to monitor and conduct reconnaissance. However, there are no results yet because Jimmy cannot directly notify Hatten of what he saw, so Now they can only use a wide net to monitor four houses at the same time.
It's already November, and Hatten and the others had previously speculated that there might be another murderous outbreak on Christmas Day, so the detectives were also diligently pursuing clues.
It's just bad luck. There was nothing unusual about these houses during the monitoring period. After working hard for several days, there was no gain at all.
Of course, it cannot be said that there was no gain at all. As FBI agents, they had enough technology and personnel to inspect the four houses and found a large number of weapons inside and the altar in the basement. However, no suspects were found for the time being. .
For the FBI, it is completely meaningless to just catch some criminals who illegally possess weapons. Their current targets are cult members and murderous criminals.
[To be honest, I have been using @@ recently to read and catch up on updates. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. It can be used on both Android and Apple. 】
The current focus of monitoring is the house with the altar. As Jimmy judged, this basement is too clean. It was cleaned on purpose. If they had not given up this stronghold, they would definitely come back again.
