Chapter 1
I swear officer, I didn't do it!
So you admit it. You are confessing that you didn't do it?
What do you mean? I thought I was here for doing something wrong?
Well, yes and no. You are here because you did not get a prescription for the drugs you brought in from Canada. So, you are being charged with international drug smuggling.
This is no big deal! Come on, give me a break. People take a few bottles of pills in from these kinds of trips all the time. Can't you give me a warning and send me on my way?
'fraid not. However, the prosecutor may be interested in who you specifically know that's bringing drugs in from Canada. You've already said you know of many who are, so you could also be charged with conspiracy, if you don't cooperate.
Wait a minute! This is crazy. I don't know anyone specifically. I just meant this happens all the time. I was speaking in general terms!
Okay, sure buddy. Tell that to the prosecutor--and the judge!
Since we've only got a short-term hold on you we're not going to classify you. It's not worth it, since you've only got three days.
Uh...is that good?
Not for you. Since you are unclassified, you'll have to be assigned to our maximum security unit.
You're putting me in the hole?
Yep. You know what they say--if you can't do the time, don't do the crime.
