Obs: 57 roll=56. "Let's question these guys separately and warn the front door security that we might be expecting some unwanted company."(When you look at the wounded goon you recognize him as the one you appears to be the goon who shot your partner and was wounded during the gunfight...) Rf: There is no front door security at the federal building. It is primarily a Federal post office with a side door leading to the administrative wing where other federal departments have offices. Lance TERRELL yells out of the cell to you and Agent CLARK. LT: "hey, you guys better call a doctor. The guy you shot passed out and i think he's not gonna make it!"

I'll head to the phone and call for some medical help.
"Yeah, he's the one who killed my partner and we wounded him in the resulting shootout. Lance hear appears to have been helping to hide him." Turning to Lance. "It's a shame you didn't help out when you could. Things could be a whole lot better for you."

Turning to Lance. "It's a shame you didn't help out when you could. Things could be a whole lot better for you."You call the hospital to send an ambulance while Agent CLARK checks on the unconscious prisoner. AC: "Ya, he's out. He's bleeding bad too. We got to get him to the hospital. One of us will have to go with him while the other stays here and guards Lance. Which do you want?" Agent CLARK then calls the Chicago Police and informs the duty Sergeant of the situation. The Sgt. is less then enthused but promises to send some officers to the hospital to help guard the prisoner. Agent CLARK then say's AC: "when we have finished with Lance we will have to lock him up in the city jail till we can get the charges sorted out then take him to court." The ambulance arrives and 2 attendants take the wounded goon on a stretcher to the ambulance. They ask, A1: "who's comin with us?"

"I'll go with the ambulance. Be careful here Bob, don't take any chances. Keep one of the big guns on hand, and be ready to use it. Maybe since the police know that we're headed to the hospital, Al will find out and send some folks there."
I'll grab a shotgun plus as much ammo as I can fit into all my pockets and carry it with me. I'll head into the ambulance with the prisoner.
To the ambulance driver. "I'm a little wounded as well. Maybe one of you guys can give me some first aid, and let a doctor know that when I get to the hospital, I'll need a little attention. Thanks, bub"

Agent CLARK loads a shot gun then leans it against his desk. He then makes sure his 45 auto has a fresh clip. He looks at you and say's AC: "i'll call for more agents to assist. No way we're gonna let a bunch of gangsters come into this office like it's a rival boozecan!"
You grab the shot gun, stuff 25 shells into you pockets then get in the ambulance. You are taken to the Chicago General Hospital where the attendants run the wounded goon into the emergency ward. A nurse escorts you to an examination room to have you injuries looked at. 2 uniformed Chicago Police are standing in the lobby when you entered. Both follow you into the room. One of them say's CP1: "You the Prohie?" The other one say's CP2: "is that the perp being wheeled into emerg?"

"Yes, and yes, gentlemen. Name's Robert Heflin." I'll make note of their badge numbers to jot down. I'll also be ready in case they make a play for their weapons. "Be on the alert folks. It could get really hot in here. Looks like we're comrades in arms and there might be a battle coming up."

It could get really hot in here. Looks like we're comrades in arms and there might be a battle coming up." The two coppers look at each other then one says CP1: "I'll go watch the perp and escort him to his room after the docs are done with him." He then leaves the room. The other cop say's CP2: "I'll go wait in the hall." He then exits the room also. The doctor and a nurse comes in the room. Checks your injuries then cleans and patches the wounds. After you are bandaged the nurse gives you some pain pills and a glass of water then they leave. You are now sitting on the examination bed. What do you do next??

I'll find a telephone and call Agent Clark.
"The cops are on duty. I'm slow to trust them, but I can head back to the office to help out there."
Next, I'll call the reporter and let her know that we were in a gunfight with one of the crooks that shot me and killed my partner. He's in the hospital now. I'll also let her know that we have the Lexington Hotel detective in custody. There have been threats of reprisals against us.
I let her know I can answer any questions and help with information for an article if she needs it at any time.
Then, I'll head back to the office.

You call Agent CLARK and he answers right away. He say's AC: "good to hear from you. Keep your guard up with everyone and your shotgun handy. I have some Agents on the way but they will be a few hours. Do you have a room? I'm gonna need to know where you are to contact you...
You call Beck FLICK and get her at her desk right away. She say's "Agent HEFLIN, that was you at the Lexington? Give me all the details you can say. I'll right it up." Did you know that the Lexington is owned by the Torio Mob and overseen by his understudy Al CAPONE? Everyone there is on the Torio payroll. You better watch out. CAPONE is gonna be livid!"
You leave the Hospital then head back to the office. You find the door locked and Agent CLARK opens it when you knock. He is surprised to see you so soon. AC: "Lance has been running his mouth but nothing useful is coming out. I hope these other agents get here soon. Not sure if this is the best place to keep him or not..."

I'll give Agent Clark my contact information. "Make sure to keep this information out of the office in case someone breaks in, looking for Lance. Maybe we can set up a decoy here, and station the extra agents here when they come, meanwhile you and I can be with Lance somewhere else. Maybe at my room, or a different hotel besides the Lexington. I can take him there while you wait for the other agents. Maybe put your coat over Lance when we take him somewhere so they don't suspect anything when I walk out with him."

Let's take him to your room. I'll update the Agency." CLARK grabs his jacket and shotgun then unlocks the cell for Lance TERRELL. He tells Lance to stand up then handcuffs him. He then escorts him to the door then looks at you. AC: "Who's watching the goon in the hospital?"

"The cops are there with him. Let's throw your coat over Lance, and I'll bring him to my place. Just make sure all the other agents head here, so the Torrio group thanks we still have him here."
I'll try to get Lance to the car as indiscreetly as possible and then head to my room, making sure I'm not followed along the way.

I'll try to get Lance to the car as indiscreetly as possible and then head to my room, making sure I'm not followed along the way. You and Agent CLARK take the handcuffed Lance TERRELL and put a rain coat over his head to hide his identity. You escort him the B.O.I. sedan then drive him to your apartment. The drive over is without incident. You remove him from the car then escort him up to your apartment. Once inside, Agent CLARK locks the door then continues to watch out the peep hole to see if anyone is coming down the hallway. No one does... Ref: Roll for OBS

As you pull out of the parking space just outside the office you quickly glance around...you don't see anything out of the ordinary... inside your apartment you sit tight while keeping watch. Agent CLARK site Lance at the kitchen table where he quietly smirks to himself...

"Lance you want to spill the beans, and clear yourself, or are you going to go down with the ship? You have a chance now to make up for your obstruction earlier. I'll testify you ended up being cooperative and plead for a dismissed sentence if you spill the beans. If not, I'll testify that you lied to Federal agents, and tried to prevent us from doing our duty, were uncooperative and urge that maximum punishment be applied. By that time the city and public opinion which is already getting tired of the shootings and killings will be up in arms, and the judge will want to look tough on crime. So start talking, Lance. Do yourself a favor. It's your choice if you spend time in prison or not."

It's now late in the evening. All is quiet...
Lance looks at you and say's LT: "Down with what ship? I was protecting the confidentiality of a hotel guest. I never committed no crime. You'll never pin anything on me. I'm an employee of the hotel nothing more. Torio might own it, Capone might manage it. I'm just on the staff. You didn't have a warrant so i don't need to cooperate with nuthin! Oh, by the way. Do you actually think i'm the one they care about? (laughs). You bet on the wrong horse Agent HEFLIN..."
Agent CLARK turns from the peep hole and looks at Lance then you. He then says, AC: "I think he's right. We better get to the hospital..."

You look around and see the hospital is busy but quieter then when you were last there. A duty nurse approaches you and says DN: "This is a hospital! There is no place for a gun, Sir. Are you a policeman? What can we do for you?"

I'll flash her my badge. "Didn't mean to alarm you, but there's a wounded criminal here that was to be watched by the police. He was checked in a couple of hours ago. Where can we find him. If he's dead, we'll need to view the body. We'll also need a list of anyone who's attempted to visit with him or even inquired about him, if that's possible. Thanks for your cooperation. Keep it up, and I'll mention yours and the hospital's cooperation to the media."

The 2 police officers left soon after. The body is in the morgue. I'll have an orderly escort you down. The nurse gets an orderly who say's O: "follow me." He then walks you to the cold room in the basement. The body is found to lying on a stretcher covered in a white sheet. The orderly uncovers the body to show you. The goon in question is good and dead... Agent CLARK states AC: "We need an autopsy. I'll have the body secured for official investigation by the Bureau. Then lets get back to the office to speak with TERRELL...

On the way back to the office, I'll have a little strategy talk with Clark. "Let's not tell Lance what happened to this goon. We can hint that he gave up some information, or just tell him that he did before he died." Hopefully the other agents have showed up by now.

Agent CLARK listens to your position then say's, AC: "I agree. Lets see how long we can carry this on. You know, with a good lawyer, we don't have the grounds to hold him let alone charge him." Upon arrival to the office you find 2 new agents of the Bureau of Investigation inside. One is sitting at a vacant desk typing while the other is on the telephone. Agent CLARK introduces you to them once your inside then heads to the cell to get Lance TERRELL. Lance is removed from the cell then sat on a chair next to his desk. CLARK begins AC: "I hope you understand this is an investigation into the murder of a federal agent and the attempted murder of another..." He then motions to you...

"Luckily our side was able to get some information from that goon. So let's get it straight, Lance. Al Capone is headquartered at your hotel, The Torrio mob is running things there, and they are involved in some illegal stuff. A good hotel detective would get the riffraff out of that hotel. You've fallen down on your job. In addition you not only knew about the fugitives hiding out at your hotel, you brought them supplies regularly, and you spoke about it to a few other folks. Of course you refused to speak to us about it, so don't give me the protecting privacy of a tenant garbage. You didn't protect the privacy to anyone else but decided to try that with us. But we can let bygones be bygones. You can help us out by corroborating some of the information we already have.
"That day I was shot, where was the liquor on the truck coming from? Who helped unload it, after my partner was killed, and what members of the police were involved? What is the name of the man in charge of the still where the liquor came from? Where did the one perp that escaped from the hotel head? Who was the physician who attended to the well-being of the goons that were hold up in your hotel?
"Just give us the answers and you can be on your way."

Lance listens to you quietly then say's LT: "Torio owns the hotel. Capone runs it. It's mostly a meeting place that also hosts card games. There's liquor there but nuthin heavy. No speakeasy. Just room service. I didn't know the guy in 414 had anything to do with the shooting. I just knew he was being put there by Capones goons. Like I said, i'm on the pay roll. I do what i'm told. Word is the truck was delivering booze to a speak they were parked in front of when you 2 prohies came on it. They were never supposed to shoot...i'm not sure where the runner went. Probably to Torios guys. The doc works at the clinic. 2nd floor. I hear the booze comes from the trucking co. Thats all I know! can I go?"

"Thanks for your cooperation, Lance. That pretty much confirms the information we had. What do you say, Clark? Can we let Lance go now?"
After making sure his statement was recorded or transcribed, I'll let him go. Then I'll tell Clark we need to see if we can get ahold of the doctors records from the clinic. "If he helps one of their guys, he probably helps a lot of their guys."
"Also can we use this statement to raid the trucking company and get a warrant? I've gone in there and smelled the still myself."

Agent CLARK tell one of the other agents to walk him out. Lance gets up, straightens his clothing then says LT: That's all i'm gonna say. I'm not gonna get dead too!" He then leaves with the Agent.
Agent CLARK say's AC: Lets write this up tonight then apply for them warrants tomorrow. Where should we hit first? They are Volstead Act Warrants...

First location: Miller Brothers Trucking - reason 1. Agent Heflin entered smelled alcoholic spirits distilling. Kept some surveillance and observed a suspicious person from the Deuces speakeasy where he observed alcohol being served. reason 2: Testimony from Lance Terrell stated that the liquor on a truck being investigated by two prohibition agents who were attacked and one killed, was coming from Miller Brothers' Trucking. We need a warrant to both search for violation of the Volstead Act as well as evidence pertaining to the murder of a federal agent.
"We can wait on the Lexington until after we raid Miller Brothers. We might find something to link the two places even further during that first raid. As soon as we turn in the warrant request, we'll have to keep Miller's under surveillance until the warrant comes through to make sure that they don't destroy anything or move their supply."
