If A Tree Falls

Jail House Bully

Guard Simmons
I can't take much more of Kavanagh demanding to be let out of the holding cell. We are going have her until the arraignment and bail hearing. She was brought in too late for that to happen so we are cursed by her royal wealthiness. Please someone soundproof my ears.
Kate
You just wait until I get out of here I will make sure that you two lose your badges. I demand to be let out of here, she fell against the door. I was trying to prevent her from hitting the door that is why my nail marks and scratches were on her face and her DNA was under my nails.
Guard Smith
We hear it all how a victim fell against a doorknob and her eyes were both blackened. Oh don't forget the one where the mother's four year old  was sleeping next to her with his feet next to her face and his tossed around and kicked her in the eye, resulting in a black eye. Fortunately that was a true story, because the bruise under her eye was too small for it to have been a fist. Especially as big as her husbands fists were. They measured it and apologized profusely to her and her husband. I think they settled out if court. But the story miss Kavanagh is complete bull, because this isn't her first time here for assaulting someone. Suddenly her royal pain bellows yet again. I am off see you later my replacement has arrived.
Kate
I need to see my attorney now.
Guard Jones
Oh shut your pie hole. I heard we had a self proclaimed queen bee in here. Honey we ain't worker bees bringing you pollen so sit down and shut up. I turn up the music and check the cells and assure everyone is accounted for and breathing. Ahh blondie number one. I take it you are making noise to get oil to stop that squeaking. We don't have no oil here so squeak at your leisure and soon you will realize the louder you get the hoarser you're voice gets. I walk back to the guard station and wait for my next walk through and new prisoners. She begins her ranting again and we have a regular guest arrive. We call her big baby girl, she comes in in her hooker attire half in the bag and she ain't in any mood to be messed with.
Guard Donovan
Let me put her in a cell, I know exactly what cell to put her in. I walk big baby girl (Leila Williams) she really isn't big and she's not a baby girl. We tease her with that monicker because she has been known to beat the holy hell out of other prisoners who don't let her sleep off her drink. I have met her when she's sober she is nothing like this. She works a club and her boss is an idiot, he gets her drunk and we find her stumbling down the street we put in a cell until the homeless shelter she likes opens up. We figure she so tiny that she can't really do much damage except scare the hell out of them with a few gut punches. She learned about the solar plexus moves and that pretty much makes the point. One of the beat cops taught it to her protect herself.
Leila
I eye blondie up and down, freaking designer wearing bimbo. I grab the bench and place my jacket over me as I lay down to sleep. Suddenly blondie starts yammering about a freaking attorney. I look up and tell her to shut it before I shut it for her. I tell when the attorney gets here they will let her know until stop waking me up and be quiet.
Kate
You don't tell me what to do you cheap prostitute.
Leila
Hey Donovan, this bimbo thinks I am a cheap prostitute. He laughs and says, she has been screaming at us since she has been in her cell.
Guard Donovan
Smith said she won't shut up. So getting sleep in there is going to be hard with her demanding her attorney every five minutes. She has just been in here for five hours after the two hours of booking her. She apparently beat up a young woman after the girl arrived home after a hospital stay of three weeks. She kind of looked like you. Your twin back in town?
Leila
Not yet. I get up and stand and tell her that I am needing sleep and if she doesn't stop yammering I will help her concentrate on other parts of her body besides opening her mouth. She rushes at me and I hit the solar plexus three times. Now make another peep, next time it will that heavily made up face of yours. Now go sit in that corner until I say you can move are we clear, just nod, not talking. She nods.
Guard Donovan
I chuckle as peace and quiet ensues, big baby girl takes no prisoners. No one messes with her in here. At six am big baby girl wakes like clockwork and I escort her out. She tells bimbo she can move out of the corner now. Luckily her attorney has arrived and I cuff her and escort her and Leila out, she is taken one way and I am off duty and give Leila a ride to the shelter. I hand a few dollars and tell her to be careful out there.
Leila
I will try, know any places I can work for room and board? He hands me a card and tells me that Dr Flynn needs a housekeeper and I put in a good word for you.
Guard Donovan
She thanks me and asks me for my cell phone to call him. She has an interview today, but she needs to get different clothing. I have her sign into the shelter and drive her to the Salvation Army to get some used clothing. She spends the money I gave her to get the clothing and I take her to meet the dr after she showers and changes at the shelter. Three hours later she has a new job and a bed to sleep in.
Leila
Keep in touch Donovan. Thanks I owe you.
