For practical reasons, prisons are often built in areas that will naturally discourage escape. Some prisons are too far from civilization for inmates to realistically ever return from, like Devil’s Island. Some are close to civilization, but located in a place that makes attempts at escape a form of suicide, like Alcatraz. Some of the most feared prisons are located both far from civilization and in a life-threatening environment.

After a long conversation followed by a long flight followed by a long drive, Agent Murphy parked his rental car in the parking lot of the most secret prison on U.S. soil, near the southern tip of Florida.

To many it would seem counterintuitive to place an ultra-high-security secret prison in Florida. After all, the two impressions most people share of Florida is that it is a palm tree-infested family vacation destination and that it is the criminal’s natural habitat. Murphy himself had expressed surprise when he was told where he was going and why.

After Jimmy’s attempts to direct Agents Miller and Murphy into the mysterious file that was now mysteriously password protected, Jimmy had scoured his notes trying to recall everything he knew about how every other person who had accessed the file had done it. It seems that a popular pastime amongst those who found the file was sharing stories about how they found the file. Jimmy said that during his time in exile he had written down what he remembered, and using his notes and his increasingly hazy memories, they had managed to find twelve more copies of the file, all of which were password protected.

After they had followed every lead in his notes, Jimmy lapsed into a deep funk, sullenly pacing around the warehouse for two days, muttering to himself. Miller and Murphy had decided that Jimmy had been a costly and embarrassing dead end, and were about to pull the plug when Jimmy ran into the camper shouting like a crazy person. He said that someone they’d never heard of, named Phillip, had clearly put up the passwords on every copy of the file he knew about to keep him out. At first, Murphy thought this was just more reason to give up, but then Jimmy said that there was one person who had never told anyone where he found the file, another person they’d never heard of named Todd Douglas. Jimmy said Todd should be easy to find, as he was fairly certain that Todd would be in prison.

They searched for a prisoner named Todd Douglas and hit a brick wall. They learned that Douglas existed, and was “in the system,” so to speak, but they didn’t have high enough security clearance for any information beyond that. Murphy had to kiss a lot of backsides and Miller had to yell a lot of threats. On a few occasions, they had to do both at the same time, to the same person, but after three days of sustained phone action they finally got clearance for one of them to come to this secret federal facility and meet with the infamous Todd Douglas.
