Nouno the Vigilante episode 40 Girls and investigations maturing

                18-year-old Diana Fox has a routine check up with her pediatrician Dr. Ernesto Torres.  Although she is technically an adult now, she has been going to Dr. Torres since she was a baby and doesn’t want to stop just because she turned 18.  Although this is obviously an arbitrary rule, on this particular occasion, it may have been a good idea to heed the unwritten rule that if you’re 18 or over, you need to find a different doctor than your pediatrician for your routine check-ups.

                Diana takes a late appointment and by the time Torres is able to see her, the staff has already gone home.  Dr. Torres administers the check up and when he concludes, he removes the glove and inserts two of his fingers into Diana’s genitals.  At first, Diana doesn’t know what to do as she is too shocked to react but as he continues to fondle her, she finally snaps back to the moment and shoves him away.  She exclaims, “Dr. Torres what are you doing?!”

                “You’re an adult now so it’s okay.” He responds

                “No, it is certainly not okay.  You’re my doctor.”

                “And you chose to come to me even though you know I’m a pediatrician.”

                “Yea, because I have been for over a decade; not to be molested.”

                “I’ve examined you naked your whole life.  It’s not a big deal.”

                Diana lifts her pants and shakes her head appalled at how this routine check-up has turned.  What happens next will haunt her as Dr. Torres grabs her and throws her onto the examining table.  Diana has never felt more overpowered in her entire life as the man she has known her entire life has now lowered her pants and is mounting her forcing himself inside of her.  In what seemed like an eternity, Torres’ body goes tense as he climaxes putting an end to their encounter. He rolls off Diana and she quickly gets her clothes on and hurries out of the office crying.  Her next stop is the police station where she presses charges. 

                By the time Judge William Nicklas Jr. presides over the case in Frederick, Maryland, 20 other women had come forth with allegations of sexual assault by the doctor.  In all, the 69 years old Torres will be indicted for 98 sex crimes.  He gets convicted on lesser charges but the main ones of rape he is acquitted and is quickly let free with no jail time 

 

                As the incident happened in the northeastern part of the country, in the opposite southwestern part of the country known as Arizona, Abby and Nouno are in their home.  The married couple has made a habit of going around the country as vigilantes for criminals the justice department doesn’t prosecute.  Their cases normally deal with illegal immigrants who are protected in sanctuary cities so given a de factor get out of jail free card for any crime regardless of seriousness.  The Democrat primaries have now gone to New Hampshire, which is where President Trump is giving a rally.  As is normally the case when Donald Trump is pitted against Democrats in a rally, a significantly higher group of people come to the Trump rally than attend a Democrat speech, rally or appearance.  As Abby sees this, she scoffs, “Can’t he ever just back off and let Democrats compete to oppose him?”

                Nouno responds, “Nope”

                “I just think there needs to be some civility even with party politics.”

                “Should and reality are two very different things.  When liberals and Democrats start showing us civility and stop calling us racist, misogynistic, and whatever word they can put in front of ‘phobe’ and stop colluding with foreign countries to conjure up fake documents to take us down and then impeach us for claiming we did exactly what they did, then we can get back to civility.  In the mean time, we will continue to get down in the gutter with the libelous, scandalous, treacherous, disgusting bottom feeding trash bag Democrats.”

                “That is a lot of adjectives.”

                “Not as many as what they call us.”

                “You’re getting close.”

                “Thanks babe”

                “Well, that wasn’t meant to be a complement but whatever.  We got a case.”

                “Alright”

                “We’re going to Maryland.”

                “Maybe we can visit with the president.”

                “We don’t have that kind of connection and this is Frederick.”

                “That’s right outside of Baltimore.”

                “I know.”

                “That’s only thirty minutes from D.C.”

                “There’s still the slight problem that we don’t know the president and can’t just call him to have dinner with us.  Besides, he’s in New Hampshire.”

                “He won’t be for long.”

                “You seem to be missing the first point.”

                Nouno laughs as he enjoys getting a rise out of his wife.  Abby books the flight and when the time comes, they hop on and fly to Maryland.  While on the plane, Nouno watches a hearing in which John Radcliffe is interviewing FBI Director Christopher Wray about the Inspector General Report that highlighted the misconduct by the FBI with the FISA court when they opened up a FISA on Carter Page.  When asked point blank that now that two of the four FISA’s have been concluded to be invalid, can we say that the Trump campaign was spied on?  Wray states that the conduct is unacceptable prompting Nouno to ask aloud, “Why can’t he just answer a yes or no question with a ‘yes’ or ‘no.’?”

                Abby was listening as well and retorts, “He did answer the question.  He called it unacceptable; that means he doesn’t condone it and he admits wrongdoing.”

                “No, he’s vague.  He doesn’t say what is unacceptable.”

                “The question was specific for him so he doesn’t need to reiterate what he is referring to.”

                “It’s political speech.  This guy is more of a politician than an FBI director.  President Trump should fire him,”

                “You can’t fire everyone that doesn’t agree with you.”

                “He’s covering up for his predecessors.  It’s time that everyone involved with the Spygate debacle be brought to justice.  Wray wasn’t FBI director so he’s not going to be indicted but other people should be.  There was a lot of malfeasance and they should be held accountable.”

                “That’s Durham’s job.”

                “Only because the FBI won’t do it.  This is the thing I never understood about President Trump.  He made a show around the tag line, ‘you’re fired’ yet he hesitates so much and doesn’t fire people who undermine him and do everything they can to take him down. He already got impeached, what is he afraid of?  Take off the gloves and start firing everyone that worked with or was close to Obama because they’re all part of the Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama mafia also known as the Deep State or the department of justice, IRS, CIA, FBI and other government organizations.”

                Abby just rolls her eyes as she’s heard this rant several times and thinks it’s an overreaction.  The other person sitting in the aisle seat with Abby in the middle and Nouno at the window looks over and declares, “You got your wish.”

                Abby remarks, “Please don’t engage him.  He’s very passionate about this shit and he won’t stop.”

                Nouno asks, “What do you mean I got my wish?”

                “Trump fired 70 members of the NSC.  Ironically, that three letter agency wasn’t on your list.”

                “I know and that’s where the whistleblower came out of along with all the leaks with personal correspondence with the president.”

                “Yea, the worst culprit of what you’re talking about.”

                “This is great news; he’s finally taking my advice.”

                Abby reminded, “You don’t have a connection to the President.  You’ve never spoken to him.  He gets hundreds of thousands of tweets a day, I don’t think your little @realDonaldTrump was seen by him and he took your advice.  He doesn’t follow you.  You’re not that special.”

                The man in the aisle seat chuckled and was about to stop himself but when he saw Nouno smiling as well he felt it was okay.  He stated, “I’m curious, what were you referring to?”

                Abby sighed and buried her head in her hands.  She wasn’t looking forward to being in the middle of this back and forth.  Nouno answered, “The invalid FISAs on Carter Page.”

                “Well, yea but the FBI didn’t know they were invalid so you can’t fault them for carrying it out.”

                “You can when they lied to the FISC in order to get the FISA.”

                “Well they got shitty information.”

                “They knew it was shitty and they withheld it from the court.  You have to, by law, reveal all the information you have even if it’s questioning the credibility of your sources.”

                “How do you know they knew?”

                “The IG Report”

                “”I admit, I didn’t read it.”

                “So, there’s a footnote, footnote 302, where Horowitz talks about a person 1 who was a source for Christopher Steele.”

                “Okay”

                “There was an open counter-intelligence investigation on person one but the FBI left that out.  That’s a serious question of his credibility when he himself has an open investigation against him.”

                “Shouldn’t the court know that?”

                “The court is not an investigator.  When the FBI agent swears that they’re being truthful, they believe it.  If they lie, which they did, there are supposed to be consequences but in today’s climate, anyone against Donald Trump is above the law.”

                “Alright, so the source is questionable and the FBI should have told the court.  I’ll give you that but Steele has an obligation to reveal the information to the FBI and it’s their job to vet it”

                “There’s a possibility that it was a two way street with the informant.”

                “What does that mean?”

                “The source gives them information, Steele tells them which parts are demonstrably false, then the source revises the story to make it more believable.  This isn’t only alleged to have happened between Steele and source one but also Steele and the FBI.  When you have an informant, it’s supposed to be them telling you information and if you know they’re lying, you just deem them not credible and move on.  You don’t correct them and give them more chances to lie to you.”

                “That makes sense but is there evidence?”

                “Steele had an open highway.  He talks with all these FBI agents, he’s using databases, there’s a meeting he had with Kathleen Kavalec of the state department where she’s taking notes of all the times he contradicts himself.  This was 10 days before they opened the first FISA.  In the dossier. he claims not to know things that he told to Kavalec but Kavalec has notes on how what he’s saying can’t be true.  At first we thought Kavalec told the FBI about all these inconsistencies and falsehoods but when we saw the dossier be unclear on things that were deemed false by Kavalec, it seems he revised the dossier based on the meeting.  That would suggest Kavalec’s notes were to help Steele and not vet him as a source.”

                “Does this even matter considering that the investigation into whether Trump colluded with Russia wasn’t based on the dossier?”

                Abby groaned and rolled her eyes and gave an awkward look to the aisle, “Why did you have to go there?” she pleaded

                Nouno pounced, “That is just another lie told by the FBI.”

                “Why would they lie about that?”

                “If they admit to that, then they have to admit that Hillary Clinton paid for an investigation into her political opponent.  It means the FBI can be paid to investigate and that seriously hurts their credibility.”

                “Alright, so now that we know that what you’re saying is a serious accusation, back it up.”

                “Well, there are a couple things.  One, they allege that it all started because of a tip they got from an Australian diplomat named Alexander Downer who alleges that George Papadopoulos told him that the Russians had dirt on Hillary according to a man named Joseph Mifsud.”

                “Yes, that was it”

                “That conversation happened in May.  The investigation was opened on July 31.  Let’s look at everything that happened with the dossier between those two dates shall we?  July 5, an FBI agent by the name of Gaeta flies to London to meet with Christopher Steele.  What do you suppose they talked about?  During this meeting, according to the IG report, Steele gave Gaeta what they call report 80.  Report 80 was based on information from the aforementioned person 1.  It is here that Steele admitted he was hired by Fusion GPS and he fears Trump was colluding with Russia.  Then, on July 13, the FBI New York Field Office the ASAC or Assistant Special Agent in Charge met with Steele’s handling agent and they discussed person 1, who, like I said, was the one that created report 80 used in the FISA.  July 30, FBI lead investigators Peter Strzok and Lisa Page’s text messages go public revealing how they hated Trump and talked about sending moles and spies to stop Trump from becoming president.  The next day, the investigation is open.”

                “Alright so obviously this person one source was questionable but he had other sources.”

                “According to him he had two.  The other one told Horowitz when he interviewed him that Steele exaggerated what he said.  He denied the information and claimed that most of what Steele said he told him was unrecognizable from the actual quote.”

                “That’s the first thing you mentioned that makes Steele look bad.”

                “No it’s not because he contradicted himself with Kavalec a lot.”

                “Oh right, yea, sorry, a lot of information to process.”

                “Even Steele didn’t trust person one.”

                “What?”              

                “He called him an egoist who is prone to embellishment.”

                “Then why did he use him?”

                “Presumably because anyone that had anything negative to say about Donald Trump was given high credibility and importance.”

                “So this had nothing to do with Papadopoulos.”

                “No, that was just a red herring and a cover up.  To further my point, like I said the investigation was open on July 31.  Person 1 started speaking to Papadopoulos constantly starting from August 2016.”

                “After they opened the investigation, they tried to bring credence to their story by linking Papadopoulos with the source.”

                “Bingo.”

                “Holy shit, I need a shower after this.”

                “That’s only the tip of the iceberg but yea the more you dig the more disgusted you get with the FBI.  I’m of the mindset to just dissolve the whole damn thing.”

                “That may be extreme.”

                “Yea, maybe but I’m not so sure anymore.”

                The conversation ended and they flew in peace to Abby’s delight since they had to talk over her to have their discussion.  They land in Baltimore and Nouno and Abby head toward the hotel.  Abby asks, “Do we know who these sources are?”

                “The one that denied everything Steele claimed he confided in him was Trubnikov who was the head of the Russian CIA.”

                “Oh right, and he knew the CIA spy Halper.”

                “Yea, they taught a course together in Cambridge.  Senator Grassley sent a letter to the office of net assessment at the Pentagon because they paid Halper a million dollars in 2015 to write a paper.  Halper listed Trubnikov as a consultant and advisor to the paper.  Although Halper got the money, he never wrote any of the four papers they asked him to.”

                “Yea, that’s right, so tax payer money was used to spy on Donald Trump.”

                “Yup.”

                “Okay, no more.  I’m really getting sick of Spygate.”

                “It’s all anyone wants to talk about when we go on these cases.”

                “Yea, I know.  It’s kind of weird.  I’m surprised nobody has attacked you for being a Trump supporter yet.”

                “You know what?  I’m kind of surprised by that too.”

                “Anyway, this case is a little tricky because we’re dealing with a 69 year old man so he’s not going to be in bars and clubs and stuff.”

                “What did he do?”

                “He’s a doctor that molests his patience.”

                “So set up an appointment with him.”

                “I can’t, he’s a pediatrician.”

                “Well, you’re the one that comes up with these plans.”

                “Yea, I know but you may not like it.”

                “When have I not gone along with your plans?”

                “I called my cousin Helen to come meet us here.”

                “She’s 16”

                “Exactly”

                “Did you get her an appointment?”

                “I did, for tomorrow.” Abby was speaking with a sly expression as she was anticipating to be scolded.

                “So she’s going to have to administer the tranquilizer.”

                “Yes”

                “Alright, let’s just hope she doesn’t get raped in the process.”

                Abby glared at him, “Come on!  You don’t think I’m worried about that?”

                “You’re the one that put her in danger.”

                “It’s the best plan and she agreed. “

                “Fine, I’m not saying no.”

                “No, but you’re making me feel guilty about it.”

                Later that day, Helen arrives and Abby and Nouno pick her up at the airport.  The next day, Helen takes her late appointment with Dr. Torres.  As she comes in, she fills out the medical report with a false name and hands them a fake insurance card.  Helen is 5’5” with a spray tanned complexion and long black hair with sharp facial features and curvaceous body with a long torso.  As Helen walks in, Dr. Torres tells her to sit on the examining table.  She does so with the syringe pressed against her inner arm hidden by her outer arm just like Abby showed her.  Dr. Torres inquires, “How are you today?”

                “I’m a little frustrated with this gun confiscation in Virginia.”

                “Well, good thing we’re in Maryland.”

                “No, seriously, the guy who wrote the bill, Mark Levine was asked what he was going to do if someone refuses to hand over their gun.”

                “What did Levine respond?”

                “That no law abiding citizen will be affected and that Virginians know that laws change and they need to adapt.”

                “Well that’s a crappy answer.  They’re basically blaming the victim for not abiding by the law.”

                “Right, since the bill says it’s a misdemeanor if they don’t hand over their property.”

                “That’s called stealing in my book.”

                “Mine too but Levine says it’s not confiscation it’s just a new law they must abide by.”

                “Tyranny.”

                “Yea, I say my gun my choice on who I give it to.”

                “I like that.”

                “Kind of like my body my choice.”

                “Did you recently get an abortion?”

                “No, I only mention that because I don’t want you to rape me when you’re done with your evaluation.”

                Torres’ friendly demeanor escapes his face as he glares at Helen.  Helen smiles and jams the syringe into the 69-year-old neck and suppresses the trigger, “Your raping days are over pervert.”

                Torres collapses onto the ground and Helen texts Abby and Nouno who are waiting outside.  Helen unlocks the door for them and when she does, it dawns on her that Dr. Torres was actually going to rape her because why else would he lock the doors.  Nouno carries Torres out and they place him in the trunk of the car and drive back to the motel. 

                Dr. Torres wakes up and looks at his restraints.  He sounds angry as he calls out, “Oh come on! I’m too old for this shit.”

                Nouno looks down, “You weren’t too old to rape those girls.”

                “I’m 69 years old.  You really don’t think a teenager couldn’t fight me off if they wanted to?”

                “Old man strength”

                “You can’t seriously believe that.”

                “Actually I do.  We saw it first hand with my cousin Helen over there.”

                Helen waved charmingly but at the same time tauntingly.  Dr. Torres noticed and gave Nouno a quizzical look, “I didn’t touch her inappropriately.  You didn’t prove anything.  I don’t know what the fuck she told you…”

                “The doors were locked and your staff was sent home.”

                “It was my last patient of the day so I no longer needed my secretary.  They lock the doors so nobody can come in but only exit.  It’s really standard procedure.”

                Nouno seemed to actually contemplate this and paused.  This prompted Abby to jump in, “You raped 20 girls.”

                Dr. Torres sighed, “People like piling on.  It’s human nature.  Those girls were lying.  If I was raping them, why would they stay with me till past when they have to?  I don’t know why women do this but they all pile on and seek attention by playing the victim.”

                Nouno articulated in a solemn voice as it finally clicked in his head, “You’re not a pedophile.  You wait for the girls to turn 18 and then you look at their continuing as your patient as proof that they feel for you what you feel for them.  Since they’re of legal age, you delude yourself that it’s okay and they want you because they went to you.  The reality is it’s just convenient to go to a doctor that you know then try to find a new one.  They don’t stay with you because they want you sexually, they stay with you because people don’t like change and they like keeping their doctor.”

                “You don’t know what you’re talking about.”

                “No, I think I do.  You watch these girls grow up.  When you watch someone grow up, it does something to you.  You feel a connection to them.  As these little girls become young women, you start looking at them differently and then you believe that your entire encounters with them prior to their turning 18 was just marinating that meat until it was ripe for the taking.  That’s why you can’t resist and when they refuse, you get physical with them and reason that at your age, you shouldn’t be able to overpower them so it must be that they were willing.  That’s how you justify it.”

                “It sounds like you’re speaking from experience.”

                “Doesn’t matter because I live in reality so I know the girl that grew up doesn’t give a shit about you when she turns 18 so it’s all in your head.  You cross the line when you force yourself upon them.  They’re just not into you because it doesn’t do anything to them that they’ve known you their whole life and grew up with you.  You’re always the adult and the old guy.  They never look at you as the same age or someone to get romantic with.”

                “You’re wrong”

                “No, I’m right”

                “Seems like you should be strapped to a table you fucking hypocrite.”

                “I never raped anyone, you did.  There’s nothing wrong with getting the urges, it’s acting on them.  You acted, and that’s why this is happening” as he drove the knife into his chest. 

                Helen stayed behind while Nouno and Abby drove Torres’ body to the crematorium.  They broke in and used the machine to incinerate the body.  While the machine was running, they leave and go to a diner.  “Do you think the Never-Trump Republicans will stop Trump from getting re-elected?” Abby posed.

                “Never Trumpers aren’t Republicans”

                “You can’t say they’re not Republican because they don’t like Donald Trump.”

                “I’m not.  I’m saying it because they are actively working to elect Joe Biden in New Hampshire and Iowa because they think he has the best chance to beat President Trump.”

                “Well, that’s how Republicans are.  When you worked for the Leadership Institute, didn’t they tell you that sometimes you should vote for a Democrat over a RINO (Republican in Name Only) in order to mess up the country so that people will realize why they need real Republicans.  The Never-Trumpers are doing the same thing.  It’s a strategy taught to you by a conservative”

                “Yes, but I never agreed with it.  I would agree with your and the media assessment except for the fact that Trump is polling at 94% approval among Republicans.  There can’t be that many Never-Trumpers and that number be that high.  Something is off and I’m thinking it’s that the ‘Never Trump Republicans’ are really Democrats.”

                “It’s a group of John Kasich fans in Ohio.  They’re pissed that Trump destroyed their candidate so this is their revenge.  It doesn’t make them less Republican.”

                “They’re very few in number and clearly don’t have a lot of influence since only 6% of the entire party doesn’t approve of Trump now.”

                “That may change.  They were in New Hampshire trying to register moderate Republicans to be independent and vote in New Hampshire to elect Biden.”

                “I heard about that memo.  Fucking retards.”

                “Hey hey hey, you can’t call them retarded because they don’t like your candidate.  There are legitimate reasons not to like Trump.”

                “I agree with that.  I’m calling them retards because they sent the memo out in Mid-November but the deadline to change your registration so you can vote in the primary is October 25.  It was a pointless campaign.”

                “Well, I didn’t know that so am I retard?”

                “You didn’t organize an oppositional campaign against a candidate in favor of another.  That fact was irrelevant to you.  They were involved in something that made that deadline essential.  If you did what they did, you would know when the deadline was.”

                “That’s true”

                They stayed at the diner until it was time to go clean up the bones and the machine.  Luckily for Abby and Nouno, they could talk to each other for hours because that’s how long it took to cremate a body.  They went back to the crematorium and cleaned up and then went back to the hotel where Helen was sleeping.  The next day, they flew back to their homes as Helen lived in Cleveland.  Unfortunately, the plan Abby put forth was sloppy.  Torres’ secretary knew who the last patient was and she pulled up her records.  The story made national news and Abby noticed Helen’s alias and description being broadcast on TV.  Upon seeing this, Abby’s eyes widened in horror, she called Helen and told her, “I’m really sorry but you can’t go back to Baltimore.”

                “I wasn’t planning on it,.”

                “They have a description of you and the fake name.”

                “At least it’s the fake one.  They’re going to be looking in Baltimore. I don’t live anywhere near there.”

                “I’m just saying don’t go back.”

                “Duly noted but I wasn’t planning on it.”

                “I’m so sorry I involved you.”

                “Why? A fucking rapist will never harm anyone again.  I didn’t get hurt.  So what that my Baltimore privileges have been revoked?  Like I said, I had no intention of going back any time soon.  It’s not even that nice of a city.”

                “I’m glad you understand.”

                “Calm down.  We’re good.  Thank you for letting me help.”

                “No problem”

                Abby got off the phone and shook her head.  She was kind of surprised how well Helen took it but I guess the facts were in her favor.  They didn’t have her real name and they didn’t know where to look.   I guess she’d worry if the authorities ever did find her.
