  REPORTER'S TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS HAD ON MAY 3, 2001

  PRELIMINARY HEARING

  MAGISTRATE [OMITTED], PRESIDING

         THE COURT:  Counsel for the defendant?

         PRESIDING STATE OFFICER:  Ma'am? Stand and say your name.

         MS. CARDINAL: Oh yes, I'm Annalee Cardinal.

         THE COURT: Please state your full name.

         MS. CARDINAL: Esperanza Annalee Delarosa Cardinal.

         THE COURT:  You do not use your first name casually?

         MS. CARDINAL: No I don't.

         THE COURT: Could you please state for the court, your age Miss Cardinal?

         MS. CARDINAL: I'm seventeen.

         THE COURT: You understand that as a seventeen year old you can be tried as an adult in court for your actions?

         MS. CARDINAL: Well I figured. Listen, if we could skip the protocol stuff and just get to the sentence.

         THE COURT:  I beg your pardon

         MS. CARDINAL: We all know why I'm here just ask me if I'm guilty or not, and then deal out the sentence.

         THE COURT: We aren't to that part of the hearing yet, Miss Cardinal.

         MS. CARDINAL: I know, I'm asking to you to skip-

         THE COURT: Please, would the defendant silence herself and allow the court to proceed. If she is really in such a hurry, she'd do better to keep her mouth shut.

         MS. CARDINAL: For christ sake.

         THE COURT: Are you finished? Good. Moving on. Can the Plaintiff please read the charges.

         PLAINTIFF: Ms. Cardinal is charged with several counts of first degree murder, assaulting a police officer, possession of illegal weaponry, motor vehicle theft, and driving while intoxicated. Early on the morning of May 2nd, 2001, Police received reports of a stolen car, and then in the evening reports of a drunk driver. Police identified the vehicle as the stolen car reported earlier in the day. The driver, Ms. Cardinal, was pulled over, and arrested. In her vehicle were two bodies, identified as Tobias Gerard, and Francisco Molina, who both have been listed as missing for five months. The vehicle also contained illegal weaponry, including a silent sniper rifle. Ms. Cardinal's finger prints were found and both the bodies, and the weapons. I should also find it relevant to mention that Ms. Cardinal's person had the victims blood on it as well, as is clearly visible now. 

         THE COURT: What was found on Cardinal's person?

         PLAINTIFF: A semi-automatic hand gun with the serial number removed, a flask of rubbing alcohol, a hunting knife, a switch blade, a sewing kit, $7,000 dollars in cash was sewn into the lining of her pants, a black leather notebook that is currently being translated from Spanish to English, a Spanish pocket bible, and an bible trading card of the Lady Guadalupe. 

         THE COURT: Ms. Cardinal are these items all yours. 

         MS. CARDINAL: The sewing kit belongs to a friend.

         THE COURT: Which friend?

         MS. CARDINAL: I can't remember her name. 

         THE COURT: Ms. Cardinal do you have a legal guardian who isn't incapacitated?

         MS. CARDINAL: No. 

         THE COURT: Do you know where your parents are?

         MS. CARDINAL: I know where one of them is.

         THE COURT: From the look of it your mother is not in the mental capacity to care for you.

         MS. CARDINAL: That is correct.

         THE COURT: Do you have anything to say in regard to your charges.

         MS. CARDINAL: Other than that I could use a shower?

         THE COURT: Ms. Cardinal these are serious crimes your accused of. Two innocent men have been found dead. Please take this trial seriously, and do not mock the court. 

         MS. CARDINAL: I withhold any comments, how's that for you?

         THE COURT: How to you plead to these charges leveled against you?

         MS. CARDINAL: I'm allowed to appeal?

         THE COURT: Ms. Cardinal this is a preliminary hearing, and you haven't even received a sentence yet. Now, how do you plead?

         MS. CARDINAL: Am I allowed to plead for a lesser crime?

         THE COURT: No. This is a preliminary hearing, you can plead either guilty or not guilty.

         MS. CARDINAL: All right then. I plead that I don't plead.

         THE COURT: In that case the court is left with no other option than to place your sentence. After reviewing the evidence I pronounce you guilty. From here you'll be admitted to a Federal Prison, where you will await a State Trial to verify your status. At this point in time however I sentence you to life.

         MS. CARDINAL: Well that was short and relatively painless.

         MS. ROGERS: Your honor, there's a man outside who says his name is Beau Roland, and he'd like to be admitted as a witness, I told him he can't do that, but he keeps insisting.

         THE COURT: Have him escorted out and ask him to call at a regular time.

         MS. ROGERS: There are two other men here as well, from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They would like to question Ms. Cardinal.

         MS. CARDINAL: I'm object to that. Do not let them in here.

         THE COURT: That isn't your call to make, please escort her out please.

         MS. CARDINAL: Keep the hell away from me.

         THE COURT: There's no need to get upset Cardinal.

         MS. CARDINAL: I'll take a life sentence, but keep the goddamn FBI away       from me!

         PLAINTIFF: Jesus somebody restrain her.

         MS. ROGERS: Your honor Mr. Roland just

       

    (THE PRELIMINARY HEARING WAS CONCLUDED AND THE COURT WAS IN

RECESS.)

There once was a white rabbit, who lived in a burrow in the woods, with her sisters and mother. Everyday mother rabbit would warn the white rabbit to not leave the burrow at night, for foxes roamed the wood and they would certainly gobble her up. The white rabbits sisters all listened to their mother, but the white rabbit didn't heed the warning. One evening she got it in her head that she could swipe from the fox one of his red hairs, and bring it back to the other rabbits as proof of her courage. So she snuck out after her mothers and sisters had drifted off to sleep, and discovered a fox, slumbering in his den. She plucked a single red hair, and immediately the fox yowled and awoke. He spotted the rabbit and made a lunge for her. The white rabbit frightened, ran out of the den, the fox in pursuit. The rabbit ran, and ran until she uncovered, in the darkness, a large glassy surface. A frozen pond. She padded out on top of it, but the ice was thin, and before she knew it, it had shattered, leaving her to drown. She stayed at the bottom of the frozen pond til summer, when a black dog uncovered her. The dog gobbled up the rabbit. The red hair floated to the bottom of the pond, and vanished into the murk. 

The End

Now Sleep Tight, Don't Let the Bed Bugs Bite

I love you

ALRIGHTY. HERE'S A NICE PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR YOU BOYS AND GIRLS.

So apparently sometime on Friday, someone snuck into the storeroom and broadcast one of my old tapes across the interwebs.

Danny says it wasn't him.

Jaime says it wasn't him.

I can't think of any conceivable reason outside of mind control why I would do it.

So as you can guess, 

I. AM. FUCKING. PISSED.

Oh ho ho ho ho, and the best part is I can't even delete it. Nope. That shit is up there forever. 

Internet safety kids.

God I should have never gotten involved with this online shit. It is up there with worst ideas I have ever had. 

The last few weeks have been a nightmare. I've been up for weeks watching Danny to make sure he isn't sleep blogging after that last fucking incident. I get one decent night of sleep and this happens. FUCKITY FUCK FUCK. 

There's a proxy behind this I just know it. MORNINGSTAR IF YOU DID THIS HERE'S A FUN REMINDER I AM GOING TO TAKE YOUR INKY BLACK ASS AND SUCK IT INTO A VACCUUM CLEANER, THAN TOSS YOU INTO A GEISER. ACTUALLY. NO. FUCKING SCRATCH THAT. I'LL JUST DO IT ANYWAY.

BUT WHOEVER ELSE DID THIS, BE IT SOMEONE FUCKING WITH MY HEAD OR DANNY'S HEAD, OR WHOEVER.

Know this.

I am coming for you.

Prepare your organs, limbs, testicles and or lady parts for their inevitable demise. Spend a nice last dinner with them. Make it meaningful. 

BECAUSE YOU ARE FUCKING FINISHED. 

5/24

[?]

Okay, and that's five hours. Time to check your vitals. 

Five hours already?

Yep. Hold out your arm...Okay. How's your vision.

Good.

Can you read the chart?

O...E...X...A...B...G...F...D...C...

The F was a P.

Pretty good taking into account the state of your handwriting.

Go fuck yourself Summers. Look to the left...now the right...Up...down...okay. 

Is that your phone?

Yes.

Are you going to answer it?

No. 

Why who's calling?

It's Beau.

Beau? Oh no that can't be good news...

Don't worry about it doesn't have anything to do with this.

You sure?

Yeah. Here put this on your tongue.

(AUDIO CONFUSION.)

END.

Calm your selves people

So no I did not succumb to the dark slender throes in the night and begin tearing out my hair and ripping everyone I've ever known and loved limb from limb, although that took some time to explain to Annalee. You know getting tied up in a chair and questioned doesn't even really bother me at this point anymore. I feel like Princess Peach, where after a while you can just sit in that chair and make cake recipes.

I woke up yesterday morning and found that post on the blog. Annalee had me strapped up and questioned me for a while. I think I must've written it in my sleep...Which isn't good.

I used to have sleep walking problems as a kid where I could do all this shit in my sleep. My Dad has old home videos of me eating cereal while asleep. I've never typed shit in my sleep before, certainly not stuff like that.

Annalee wanted to know what is was about but, I don't know. I think this is all Slender Man messing with my head since he doesn't seem to want to show up. I've been bad keeping up my dream journal and Annalee has been on me about it.

You wouldn't believe how busy we've been guys, I can't even believe it myself. Annalee's store rooms got trashed when Morningstar showed up and did all his shit, and so there was that we had to reorganize and clean out. Annalee made a sort of handy-dandy wheel chair for Jaime, it's shitty but he can move around the kitchen alright by now. Since she's injured Annalee took the "take it easy" recommendation as turn into Bob the fucking Builder and renovate everything. She's cracked her ribs twice already. I've never seen someone so adamantly against lying still.

So yeah, not a lot of time for updates.

Jaime has been...okay. He's an ass yeah, but he's less of an ass now then he was before. I think he's actually been kind of sad. Annalee buried all of his goons, and the dude Redlight was feeding off of I think might have been one of his closer friends? He seemed really upset.

It's been a weird month in general with him trying to get used to us, and it kind of reminds me of me back then?

Anyways, yeah I'm fine. No big deal.
