Jules had slept little. She had been up most of the night waiting for the Feds to call. What a crock, she thought. She had called Homeland Security and the FBI, following every protocol she knew. She hadn’t got much interest from the minions forced to answer late-night phone calls. Now she sat up on the couch and rubbed her eyes, hoping the douche bag in custody had slept worse than she had. She’d left instructions for Doans’ overnight stay, saying he was to be given a private cell and bathroom. The prisoner was treated better than the sheriff would have liked, but if this was for real, and the Feds got involved, Doans was sure to let them know every detail of his incarceration. The last thing she needed in a laid back spot like this was the Feds looking over her shoulder.

Her eyes started to focus as she emerged from her office. After a quick trip to the restroom to wash her face, she started to feel human again. In the lobby, the officer on phone duty indicated that no calls had come in. She had done her duty and reported the threat, but this was her town. Distressed, but not surprised by the inaction of the federal agencies, she would do what was necessary to mitigate the threat and take responsibility for what went on here. A terrorist plot was NOT going off in Monroe County on her watch. She called down to lockup and asked for the prisoner to be brought back up to the interrogation room.
