SKIP TRACER PART 4
SYNOPSIS: In another dramatic twist Cindy Prell, stellar bounty hunter for the Acme Bail Bond Agency, becomes a captive of her employer and sold into slavery.
It had been just under two months since Russell Schenck, owner of Acme Bail Bond, made his first venture into slave procurement. Since then things had gone steadily downhill. A jury returned a $750,000.00 award against Acme for a prisoner brutality case which had occurred three years earlier. With insurance only covering $250,000.00 the prospect of bankruptcy loomed. To further complicate matters a defendant skipped on a $50,000.00 bail bond and was reportedly in Pakistan. No hope of avoiding forfeiture in this case. Cindy Prell had not been paid for her work on the Chicago capture and she was hounding Russ for payment in her characteristically arrogant and abrasive way.
The prospect of further involvement in the slave procurement business was becoming increasingly attractive. To test the waters Russ sought out Jamil who was on the staff of the Central African Republic UN delegation. He was reputed to have contacts in the slave market. Two days after Russ mentioned his interest Jamil called requesting to meet Russ in person. Certain matters were just too sensitive for telephones especially since it was assumed US Intelligence routinely eavesdropped on various UN missions. At the meeting Jamil related that an unnamed high-ranking government official of an unnamed African nation was interested in the acquisition of a petite, long legged White female for his harem. Russ pressed for details of the logistics of such a slave transfer. Jamil knew Russ had an oceanfront estate on the Atlantic shore of Nassau County, Long Island. This scenario was described: a cabin cruiser style boat would pick up the slave at the dock of Russ' estate. The slave would then be ferreted to a rendezvous with an African bound oil tanker after being placed in a special cage, which would be winched aboard the tanker from the smaller boat. Russ was overcome with awe at the ingenuity of the plan. He pressed Jamil for details on what level of slave training was acceptable. Jamil stated that while basic conditioning was desirable timeliness was of greater concern and that the buyer wanted the order filled within a week. Russ assured Jamil that he would meet the deadline.
Cindy Prell was an obvious choice from Russ' standpoint. She certainly met the physical requirements although overcoming her visceral domineering character would be a challenge. Her abduction could be accomplished far easier and more quickly than could a fresh snatch. Russ had recently learned that Cindy was into low-level cocaine dealing. Drug dealers invariably get caught Russ reasoned and when they do they sing like canaries to mitigate their punishment. Cindy might well be tempted to implicate Russ in the abduction of Anne Brown, which would assure lengthy incarceration for him. Russ had no love for Cindy, she had rebuffed his sexual advances long ago but he continued to employ her because of her superior job related skills.
On the way home that day Russ stopped at a swank boutique in Queens that offered a large assortment of bondage devices. Russ purchased nearly $500.00worth of items paying cash. He had resolved long ago never to use a credit card for sensitive purchases. His next step was to arrange for Eddie to travel by car from Pittsburgh. Eddie had previously worked as an attendant at a psychiatric hospital and was skilled in the application of straitjackets and drug injection. These skills had proven invaluable in the Brown case and would soon do so again. Plane travel had to be avoided due to airport security and the nature of items Eddie would be carrying.
It was 6:00PM precisely when Cindy pulled into Russ' driveway. He had called less than two hours earlier requesting Cindy meet him saying "I've got really good news for you" without going into detail. Assuming she was to be paid Cindy had set a new record for speeding while on route and was fortunate to avoid being stopped. She was surprised to see Eddie's car parked in the drive. Cindy was dressed to kill: a short vinyl mini-skirt, a tight fitting ribbed white turtleneck sweater, and fashionable mid length boots. Russ stood in the doorway beckoning her inside. Seeing Eddie and mindful of his well-known homosexuality Cindy quipped "What's the matter Russ you hard up for some male cock in your ass" while flashing her trademark smirk. It was the last smirk Cindy would flash. Russ took her by total surprise zapping her with a taser and causing her to instantly slump to the floor unconscious. Her last words were "You bastard".
Located in the basement of the house was a special windowless prisoner confinement room much like that in Eddie's house. One difference was it did not have an attached bathroom, prisoners had to be taken to another part of the basement. The room was equipped with devices, which permitted audio and visual monitoring of the room from other parts of the house. Russ and Eddie dragged Cindy to the room and sat her upright in a high backed wooden chair, which was securely attached to the floor. The chair had elbows to which wrists could be cuffed to but Russ chose to cuff her hands behind her using double hinge metal cuffs. The next step was to remove her boots. It took some doing as she was seemingly glued into them. Next a pair of heavy duty scissors quickly removed and shredded every ounce of clothing she was wearing. Russ liked women in their birthday suits. Leather ankle cuffs were used to attach her legs to the opposite legs of the chair. Russ made certain they were spread back as far as they could go. Next leather restraining belts were attached around just below and above her boobs and secured to the back ribs of the chair. A specially purchased 5" leather posture collar was attached around her neck. A leather hood with only mouth and nose openings was form fitted over her head. She was left ungagged-at least for now.
Satisfied that their slave was sufficiently immobilized Russ and Eddie set out on the next phase of the operation. Eddie drove her car and left it in the parking lot of a bar about 5 miles away that was frequented by the drug crowd. Russ followed in his car. Using Cindy's cell phone Russ twice dialed the number of a known drug dealer and hung up. When Cindy was eventually reported missing the police would most likely obtain her cell phone records and the calls to the drug dealer would focus attention on the dealer. Russ drove Eddie back to the house knowing Cindy would be conscious when they arrived.
