Introduction - BREAKING NEWS – Piglet Virus Causes Pork Prices to Soar Nationwide

ACT I

RS – Go away
OC – We need to talk.
RS – Get someone else
OC – Can’t you are only one off grid; not in network.
RS – Your deal was no more jobs after last job.
OC – Times change, remember Pfiesteria?
RS – Pfiesteria, rare but naturally occurring very ancient single celled Dinoflagellates that have unique ability to camouflage themselves, which produces nasty deaths in humans. Remember your government and Soviets along with probably Chinese trying to create “perfect” bio-weapon by turning Pfiesteria into aerosol dispersal agent.
OC - We both took same oath to uphold, protect, and preserve.
RS – Guess we just have different interpretations – what do you want?

OC – Ever heard of PEDv?
RS - PEDv no cure piglet virus known as Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus which killed ten to fifteen percent of America’s pig population from May 2013 to May 2014 thought to be spread as natural aerosol form.
OC – Why would anyone convert PEDv from aerosol to inject able?
RS – More efficient introduction into selected targets; what have you people been doing?
OC – Not our organization that is what we need you to discover and resolve.
OC – (Continues) I will leave this brief case with you; and promise no more jobs unless times change. Enclosed are:
1. Only known clues
2. Assignment location
3. Two hundred thousand dollars cash for expenses no receipts required;
Also, you do not need to contact us; we know how to find you. Almost forgot, there is a clean warranty deed for you with two names on it for your assignment location. Paper work has already been filed, as I am sure you will like always finish your assignment.
RS – Why the deed; make finding me easier?
OC – No, we will always be able to find you, even if you die; as that will only involve two choices; and we both know where we will look first.
OC – You have no one to blame for these assignments except yourself; as you would have been organization’s director years ago; if only you had been a team play.
RS – Like I said when you first came in – go away.
OC – You are not only one who loves America – what’s the point, be back when times change, like always. (Turns and walks away)

RS – Mutters what’s the point? (While pouring very large glass of “Crown on the rocks”, before sitting down and opening brief case)
RS – (Picked up folder laying on two hundred thousand cash for expenses “no receipts required”; and read following)
1. As always play by your rules do not get caught we do not know you.
2. Only clues:
- Heard BLM seeking contractors to convert PEDv from aerosol to inject able virus.
- PEDv been showing up in isolated areas with only connection being BLM lands adjacent or in vicinity
- PEDv been showing up in both domestic hog production facilities and also feral hogs in “ranch” lands
- Might look for transitory or “New” BLM employees in area
3. Assignment location is undeveloped 500 acre ranch last owner set aside as wildlife sanctuary; ranch is surrounded by mega ranch size neighbors.
4. Exposure process of bad guys should generate maximum public exposure; as opposed to them unexpectedly disappearing.
5. Do not contact us as we can always contact you – your rules; your justice - which this time needs public exposure to bring down Washington D.C. bad guys and all their connections.
6. Clean warranty deed title to ranch should provide you with ranch scouting job where you can be the SOB you are working for. We are still on same team, like it or not. OC

RS - Closes brief case then finishes his “Crown on rocks”; then muses to himself: Guess I had better leave tonight.

ACT II

(After one phone message to prospective employer that RS had taken different job; RS loaded all his belongings in back of his still dependable Ford-150, RS left for his hew assignment location Friday 11:20 PM)

(RS arrived in very small rugged terrain town between West Texas and Edwards Plateau about 9:40 next morning. Town’s most primary business had sign: VET – Doc - General Store.)

(Upon entering store, RS saw tall lanky weathered looking elderly man) Vet /Doc who quipped: Good morning can I help you?
RS - Hope so – need several things – directions; heave duty gate chain with heavy duty lock; week’s worth of start up supplies, and package delivery address.
VET/Doc - Start at top
RS - Recently acquired small ranch called “Nickel Ranch” need directions.
VET/Doc - Did not know Nickel Ranch was for sale.
RS - It’s not anymore.
VET/Doc – Knew old owner real well, you would not be new owner unless he respected you. Give you directions later, what else?
RS – Heavy chain with heavy lock for ranch’s main gate.
VET/Doc – Won’t need it – has pipe pole gate – here is lock like one I sold owner decades ago. No structures on ranch; you going to sleep in your truck; got any money?
RS – Here is thousand dollar deposit; get me everything you think I might need; need more let me know.
VET/Doc – Deposit should cover supplies you need for week
RS – Also need package delivery address.
VET/Doc – Post Office is in feed store down the street.
RS Here’s another thousand dollars; can I get my packages delivered here?
VET/Doc – Depends on what you are running from.
RS More like hired to run to trouble not run from trouble.
VET/Doc – Good enough, need anything else?
RS – Need three trusted names:
1. Local commercial hog rancher
2. Local feral hog trapper
3. Most respected lawmen in these parts
VET/Doc – Tell you later, noisy ears cause problems.
RS – One more thing, need names of least trustworthy, most worthless, undependable low life’s in your community.
VET/ Doc – Same deal, also tell you later; that will be much longer list. Need cash receipts?
RS – No, of course you knew that.
VET/Doc – Just seeing if you have a bureaucrat mentality. Best breakfast at only café down street – Have your supplies ready in about an hour.

VET/Doc (continues) – Advice is worth what you pay for it, in this case free – Strangers are like red flags around here. Tell people your dad and I went to vet school together – keep it simple - no names or details.
RS – You know nothing about me; why trust me; why take a risk?
VET/Doc – Just say I am curious about whom you ask about trusting; supplies, directions and names of good and bad will be ready in about in hour. Also no tip more than dollar at café; so you don’t look like city fool. One more thing, you are not only one who loves this country.
RS – Understood –I’ll be back.

(After hour had passed, RS headed back to pick up his directions, heavy duty lock, supplies for week, answers to both lists).

VET/Doc – Kept your change for the supplies as a tip. Sleep light and pay attention to everything around you, plus every thing above and below you. No affirmative action in these parts; can become one mistake environment in split second; guess you already knew that? See you next week. – Almost forgot your package delivery address is on back of enclosed card.
RS – Next week. (RS then glancing at directions; headed out to scout out his new home place – Nickel Ranch)

(RS decides to visit neighborhood pig rancher Thursday afternoon)

(After arriving at pig ranch headquarters: RS greets old man with – Afternoon
NPR- (just nods yes) and asks – You Doc’s friend’s son”
RS - News travels fast; time for short visit?
NPR – It’s your time.
RS – How’s business?
NPR – About to get worse than bad; lost over ninety-percent of my little piglets to virus.
RS – Mind couple questions?
NPR – It’s your time.
RS – Brought any outside stock on ranch?
NPR – No, in too many years to count; we take pride in our own bloodline.
RS – Loaned anyone you any of your stock trailers?
NPR – No, I do not loan my tools; no wait several months ago, I loaned one of my stock trailers to one BLM. Agent; said he needed to move some feral hogs, and did not have time to request trailer though bureaucracy.
RS –Were you here when he returned trailer?
NPR – No he left it while family and I were at church; but we disinfected trailer right after Sunday dinner.
RS – Have a strange request, could I have one of your most recent dead piglets? If so, could I watch it be put in that old pickle jar?
NPR – Sir I know nothing about you or why you are here; Doc said you are a friend’s son; my family has had this place for going on five generations and means everything to us. If I and my family can do anything to help save our home, let us know.
RS – Best thing for right now is tell no one about our visit.
NPR – Deal.

(RS with his piglet in pickle jar; decided to head over to try and find feral hog trapper)

(After entering five gates, RS noticed stocky middle age man next to water trough)
(RS noticed that man’s hand was covered in blood next to small feral hog the man was field dressing) RS asked – Cut Yourself?
FHT – No stuck something in my hand while removing hind quarter.
RS - (Grabbed his emergency aid kit took out a large bottle of alcohol) Hold out your hand this is guaranteed to burn.
FHT - (Said something not repeatable in family oriented non-fiction short story)
RS – Let me look to see if you need stitches. (Then said) That is a puncture wound. Where was your hand when this happened?
FHT – (Pointed and said) There.
RS – (Used a pair of needle nose pliers to probe the area and said) what, is this? (As he removed an injection dart) – Do you use these on your trapped hogs?
FHT – I do not even know what that is.
RS – This is a 10.CC injection dart; mind if I keep it.
FHT – Are you Doc’s friend’s son?
RS – Yes
FHT - Then you can have it
RS - You need to go see Doc tell him what happened; and to put your tetanus shot on my account.
FHT – Why would you help me?
RS - Simple, might have some work for you on my new Nickel Ranch. Do me a favor; do not tell anyone but Doc what happened here today.
FHT – What ever you say.
RS – We will talk in few weeks about you setting one trap on Nickel Ranch (as FHT heads off to see Doc)

(Two days later on Saturday morning RS traveled to see Doc for his weekly supplies)
RS – Morning Doc; here is my list for weekly supplies and thousand dollars in this envelope. As you have probably figured out it is not my money. Also, there are two items in this box that need to have off books comparative genetic analysis test done. Thought you might have good contact among you old veterinary school friends; or I can try to find someone.
VET/Doc – I’ll take care of it. You have eight to ten packages for you to pick up.
RS – Good, toys of the trade. Think I will go have breakfast with one dollar tip. Back in about an hour enough time for every thing?
VET/Doc – You still have not contacted RR (Retired Ranger)
RS – Maybe next week when I have more than leads; planning on spending next week inventorying Nickel Ranch and learning how to play with my new toys of the trade.
(After good breakfast RS picked up his supplies and packages and headed back to Nickel Ranch.)

ACT III

Seven passed days bring around another to town for supplies Saturday

RS – Morning, here’s another list for supplies and thousand dollars to cover costs.
VET / Doc – (Hands RS envelope) Test results exact match, one copy set included.
RS – Good; if RR is around; like to visit with him after breakfast. Be back in about hour, I know no tip larger than dollar.

(RS returns to pick up his supplies, and notices RR looking at some rough weather clothing.)
RS (Walks over to RR and asks) You Mr. retired ranger?
RR – Some Rangers never retire.
RS (Hands RR large envelope) – Backup very confidential file copies of little something I have been checking out: fixed surveillance photos; aerial surveillance photos; one forensic report; plus notes I like to call clues.
RR – I’ll check it out.
RS – Appreciate it. All I need to tie all knots is confession.
RR – “Voluntary” I hope.
RS – Of course, what other kind is there? Nice to meet you
RR – Stay in touch (as RS picks up week’s supplies and heads outside”

(Later after RR reviews file copies) (RR places phone call to his nephew)
RR – Nephew you still have any of your Marine Corp Sniper training skills left? Good, see me tomorrow I might have some “defense sniper” work for you.

(Three days later RRN call to RR)
RRN – This guy is pretty good; he is using two surveillance drones- loud one flying back and forth survey patterns in front of me and silent drone surveying behind me. Got to go be in touch.

Four passed days bring around another to town for supplies Saturday.
RS – Morning, here’s another list for supplies and thousand dollars to cover costs. Let me tell about one possible plan. If bad guy is predictable he will attempt his next bad guy efforts next Saturday morning when every one knows I always come in for supplies
To keep on schedule, I will go have breakfast with no tip larger than a dollar; pick up my supplies and head home. If you need more time to get right phone numbers let me know.
VET/Doc – I will see what I can do.

(Four days later call to Feral hog trapper) RS: Need a favor, next Saturday morning; can you get some one to drop you off at gate and drive my truck to town? Good talk to you before then.

# Public confession

(Early Saturday morning after FHT drove RS’s F-150 to Doc’s Store; RS spotted one BLM agent entering his Nickel Ranch; then exit his government vehicle carrying dart rifle heading to one of recently added corn feeders.)

All RS added was ski mask; shooter glasses; gloves; handcuffs; two cell phones; small boom box; his favorite .40 caliber; and latest expensive toy of the trade a voice changer. Next RS made phone call and simply said “Stand by for about fifteen minutes.”

After slipping up behind BLM agent who was positioning himself to dart one of the feral hogs who would inevitably show up when feeder “went off”. RS (placed gun at back of trespassers head then cocked hammer and said “Move and you will not hear second click”.

RS continued – Lay your dart gun down real easy. Move, speak or sneeze and I will leave you for feral hogs’ breakfast.

RS: Undo you belt and drop you pants to your ankles; you do not finish answering my questions before feeder goes off; you will have hard time out running hogs with your pants around your ankles.

You mess around with your answers; I promise you feral hogs will not leave enough of you to identify.

RS (Hits “send” on cell phone) – State you name, position, and who you work for.
BLM1 – Name - Special Agent – BLM
RS – Is your following statement and answers voluntary, and true and nothing but true?
BLM1 – (Whispers) Yes
RS – Speak up in clear voice so I can hear you.
BLM1 – Yes
RS – Have you ever injected PEDv into pigs on commercial pig farms?
BLM1 – Yes
RS – How many?
BLM1 – I don’t know; lots.
RS – Any in this part of Texas?
BLM1 – Yes
RS – Who?
BLM1 – Those pig people that have raised pigs forever
RS – Did you borrow one of their livestock trailers and when did you return it?
BLM1 – Yes on Sunday morning
RS – Why Sunday morning?
BLM1 - So I could inject their pigs while they were all at church.
RS – Why target those people?
BLM1 – So BLM could get their land when they could not sell enough pigs to pay property taxes.
RS – Have you ever injected feral hogs with PEDv?
BLM1 – Yes
RS – Why?
BLM1 – Allow BLM, Interior, Forrest, and Ag Departments to all seize private lands.
RS – Why?
BLM1 – All lands every where belong in governments’ hands as we know how to best care for other peoples’ resources.
RS – Did your supervisor order you to inject PEDv into private property pigs and feral hogs?
BMI1 – No
RS – Who? (as points at timer on feeder)
BML1 – Regional Director
RS – Name … Phone Number…E-mail
BLM1 – Answers all three
RS – Did Regional director provide dart gun; injection darts; and PEDv virus?
BLM1 – Yes
RS – Who gave orders to regional director?
BLM1 – Senator Harry Weid
RS – How do you know?
BLM1 – Regional Director showed me E-mail he got from U.S. Democrat Senator Harry Weid.
RS – What were you offered for what you did?
BLM1 – Position as supervisor in Texas
RS – Were your answers voluntary and nothing but truth and whole truth?
BLM1 – Yes
RS – Appreciate you time (then hits exit on phone)

RS – See telling truth is easy
BLM1 – What about timer?
RS – No problem I moved timer back an hour before you got here.
BLM1 – I will see you doing time for kidnapping; that tape will never stand up in federal court.
RS – Maybe not federal court, how about public court?
RS (Continues) – Pull you pants up to your knees and start walking back to your vehicle.
BLM1 – Why can’t I pull my pants up all the way?
RS – Slower target if you try to run with pants around your knees (Reaches down and picks up dart rifle) Get moving and do not talk; it is still not too late to cripple you and feed you feral hogs.

(Both RS and BLM1 reach agent’s vehicle)
RS (turn around and face this direction) Good, now pull down your drawers and grab your ankles. Now before my gun accidently goes off – now count to ten as loud as you can.
BLM1 (does as told)
RS – Now pull you pants up and buckle your belt – Now put you hands behind you (RS cuffs them together then use “leg irons” to secure BLM1 to his vehicle – next RS leaves dart rifle on hood of agent’s vehicle. (Suddenly sirens can be heard entering ranch gate)
RS – (Final words) Have a nice day as he disappears into mesquite thicket.

(RR F-250 and two DPS vehicles pull up)

BLM1 – (Screams) Thank God you are here; I am a federal agent and I have been kidnapped by a crazy person’
RR – Where is this crazy person, I do not see a crazy person; any of your troopers see a crazy person? What did this crazy person look like?
BLM1 – I do not know he wore a mask, dark glasses; and gloves.
One of Troopers - Sir, I found this dart rifle on hood of this federal agent’s vehicle. Wonder what we will find in these injection darts?
RR – What will we find Mr. Federal agent?
BLM1 – That is not mine; crazy person put it there
RR – Will we find crazy person’s prints on gun or your prints on gun?
BLM1 – Told you he was wearing gloves. You know that tape will never stand up in court.
RR – Who needs some tape; half of people in Texas heard or have heard your voluntary statement. (Looks at troopers) Take him to our favorite Texas District Judge – No one else is to talk to him.
RR (hears his phone ring) – Yes nephew what is it?
RRN – That crazy RS made the suspect “moon” me.
RR – We will talk about it at de-briefing. Days like this make me want to never retire.


Debriefing around noon at VET /Doc’s Store: RR – Where were you this morning?
RS – In bed at Nickel Ranch, ate something last evening that kept biting all night and most of morning.
RR – That is good enough for me (RRN clears his throat) – RR you ask him.
RRN – How did you know where I was?
RS – If I had of been there; I might have had three instead of two surveillance drones.
RRN – How did you know I was not a bad guy?
RS – If I had been there; bad guys usually take first available kill shot; and you didn’t.
RRN – Why did you make suspect “moon” me?
RS –If I had been there, I still would not have known what you are talking about; perhaps you were confused by the stress of the moment?
RR – (To Nephew) better left for anther day.
RS – Gentlemen, I am still puny from last night’s bout with what ever; if you will excuse me I should go home and take much needed nap?

EPILOGUE

RRN (To RR) – Look crossing street headed this way - Another stranger; my guess five feet in sandals, and hundred five when not expecting.
(Seven to eight months pregnant woman approaches RR as RR starts to step into his Ford- 250)
SPG – Sir, hear you are the law around here? (As she hands RR five by seven photo) You know this man? (As RR hands photo to RRN)
RR – The man in trouble?
SPG – He is with me, look what he did to me; before he left without even a thank you, for good time note.
RR – SPG what makes you think he is in these parts?
SPG – Got an anonymous call he recently bought place called Nickel Ranch somewhere around here.
RR – Well SPG, physical assault is crime in this part of Texas.
SPG – I do not want to assault him; only make him marry me to give our child his name; plus sign over everything he owns to support our child; plus make sure next time he leaves that he has no home to come back too.
RR to RRN – Would you like to help this lady with her problem?
RRN – More than you know.
RR – Good – Do not call in advance.
RRN to SPG – Where’s you car?
SPG – Hell I don’t know that piece of junk he gave me broke down somewhere, only Heaven knows how far I had to walk; not counting riding that not air conditioned bus for no telling how long, just to get here.
RRN – SPG would you like some ice tea or water, before we leave?
SPG – No; I have got way too much to say to …
RRN to SPG – “Get in” (As RRN closes door for SPG, He looks at RR) Might be pretty fun day after all?
