CHAPTER 19

One week later, on a cold and windy Tuesday afternoon, Rain sat at a table in the back of a Starbucks in downtown DC, near George Washington Hospital. She was going over her brother Dayvid’s case in detail with a law clerk at the suggestion of Mr. Morganstein. He knew the inner workings of federal related crimes and cases in his eighteen year tenure with the U.S. District Court of the Eastern District.

The clerk, Robert Downs, was actually a lawyer himself and had his jurist degree, but to be a clerk in the US Attorney’s Office was considered crème de crème position, because of the actual liberal power and connects, they rubbed shoulders with on a daily basis. Often times they knew the laws and codes better than the majority of the judges that sat on the bench. Robert Downs’s knowledge was for sale, and was trusted. Mr. Morganstein had used his service for over 15 years. Rain and Clerk Downs sat for hours discussing the case, and with each revelation, it seemed more and more dismal of his chance to ever see the light of day again.

After three straight hours, nothing more needed to be explained. The meeting had come to an end. Rain then unzipped her bag and slid an envelope across the table that contained five thousand dollars in it.

Clerk Downs expelled a confused look and stuttered, “Mr. Morganstein wired my fees to me already.”

Rain stood to her feet and said casually while waving him off. “Just consider that five cash a little tip for your informative services. But, if you have a card I can call you directly next time I need a little more information.”

He looked at the protruding, thick white envelope on the table and quickly reached inside his shirt pocket and removed his business card and a pen, and began scribbling on the back it.

“This is my card and I put my cell number on the back so you can reach me directly.”

Rain smiled, took the card, thanked him and walked off. She didn’t know if she would ever use his services or not, but she was sure of one thing, she refused to leave her brother rotting in a cold prison cell for the rest of his life.

Into the cold crisp night, Rain was now on a suicide mission. She was determined to do whatever it took to break her brother free, even if it meant taking innocent souls to hell with her.
