Hmm, you seem kinda familiar. As one of her clients back in the ASPD days (who's not laughing at anyone else, by the way), I remember her talking about being engaged around the time of one of her multiple retirements. She even posted pictures of the lovely couple for the board. Just curious, but would you be the same guy? And if so, would that also make you the same guy who came to her defense after the big alert and, by his own admission, pulled a gun on one of her clients? Or are you the second (or third, fourth, whatever) guy with a similar way of phrasing things (don't think I've seen anyone but the "two" of you use the phrase "pay for p" on here) who Nicolette/Charli/Sydney/Mary Jane has found to protect her on here?
This is a different guy than the one she originally retired for, and got engaged to.
This is the one (kwaylude)who pulled the gun on skibum when the two of them set him up. After stealing the cop's Corvette in the complex where they lived, they fled to Oakland to learn how to process medical herb. After running into trouble with the law in California, he got extradicted back to Texas, where "daddy" (his not hers) came to the rescue again. No idea why he's out on the streets, as they both had a dozen or so warrants pending against them, some federal. He also has the FBI looking into death threats he's made on someone in the witness protection program. He left the death threat on their answering machine. LMFAO. This guy is no MENSA candidate, that's obvious, but he is a survivor. The fact he's out on the street with federal warrants pending, indicates they cut a deal with the federal prosecutor, speculation that they are CI's. Certainly not the first time she co-operated with LE to keep her butt out of jail.
Basically, he's bad news. Always had "daddy" to bail him out of whatever trouble he got into. In her case, her life started unraveling with she got engaged to the previous guy. Long story short, she bounced around from place to place, living on the street, until she ran into him, and he took her in. Even before she ran into this latest guy, she was looking for a way to get out of the business, she just wasn't into it anymore. Maybe she got tired of looking over her shoulder all the time for all the people she fucked over, looking for revenge, and decided enough was enough, and it was time to turn her life around. She does claim to be clean and sober for 19 mos now. She was a special lady as many of us know, and she is missed. I truly hope she's turned her life around. By herself, she was never much of a problem, most could live with the unending white lies. It's when she hooked up with the current guy that things turned to shit. Until she realizes that, her road to recovery will never be complete.
