Unknown Diners

Chapter Fifty-Seven

An hour and a quarter later, they resumed their searching in the computers. Catherine continued with the huge penis theme, searching through Shufflr archives for mentions of BotMan. Lorne browsed to bmexx, typed BotMan into the login and received the Enter Correct User Name result. He tried changing cases, still nothing. "Any luck with BotMan on Shufflr?"

"The account exists, but the page is blank, except for a link to Archive. There are no posts there. I've struck out. I'm now scanning through HiredBum." Catherine gave him an eew expression. "God, there are a lot of exhibitionist assholes out there."

"Yeah, no BotMan on bmexx." He ran his fingers through his hair, then went again to Robotham's data and scrolled down the list of folders. He opened HugeBoy. "Yeah, what I thought. This is what got him the child porn charges." He turned his screen toward Catherine. "Pictures of me at fourteen and fifteen."

"So, he would have gotten those from Connolly."

"Or copied them off other sites on the net. Most of the images on sites like Shufflr, Tumblr, Pinterest and the ilk are copied from elsewhere. These are in HugeBoy. You search for that, see if that account exists, I'll start on SelfSuck."

"Self suck?"

"One of his other folders here." He looked at her with a twisted smile. "Me sucking me."

"You still have to demonstrate that for me." She smiled at him, then turned back to her computer and typed: hugeboy.shufflr.com and received a Nope Not Here comment. "I find nothing here."

"Yeah, the court would have ordered it removed after the convictions. Likely scrubbed from most places." He turned back to his computer to see a page of images had loaded. "Appears SelfSuck is here." He clicked Archive and hit Command and the Down arrow. "Let's find out how far back they go." He continued to command scroll toward the end as the page loaded.

She watched as he scrolled down through the years. "There are a lot fewer images per month than I've been seeing. It's certainly not as common." She laughed. "Everyone has a butt hole, but not many can suck themselves."

"Damn. Didn't think. Shufflr's too new, a decade or so old." He Googled shufflr wiki and clicked the Wikipedia entry. "Yeah, founded 2007. Have to do this through bmexx, it goes back to 2000."

He tabbed to the USB data drive and clicked on BigBoy. "These are what we're searching for." He scrolled slowly through the dozens of images.

"He was a sick man, forcing you to do that, then spreading it to the world."

"Most of the time he was very kind and —"

"Fuck! How can you say that after what he did to you?"

"He was." Lorne continued to sequence through the images. "We need to find some of these — even one of them on bmexx."

He tabbed back over to Chrome and logged into the site, clicked to Surgical, then to Subincisions & Genital Splitting.

"God! I cannot believe all these categories exist, let alone all the stuff that's posted under them. Thousands of images of splitting dicks." She shook her head. "So sick."

Lorne clicked to the last page. "We'll start at the beginning and work forward. The first posts here are in 2000." He expanded the browser window four clicks for a larger view of the thumbnails, then clicked to the previous page.

"There!" She pointed. "That's you."

He clicked the image to expand it in a new tab.

"Fuck! Your face. Your eyes rolled up to look into the camera."
