Bitter Memories
Story synopsis: A dark episode from the Grayson's past comes back to haunt Dick.
The usual disclaimer applies. I don't own any of the DC characters; I just like to torment them sometimes. I am however Beth's Mommy and I'm proud of her!
This child porn investigation is becoming an obsession. I can't get it off my mind at work as Officer Grayson, even at home when I'm holding my sweet little girl Beth. Am I becoming just like Bruce or does this case hit too close to home?
Since Beth was abducted as a toddler, and sold to a child molester, I've become more and more involved in these kinds of investigations.
If I were to pursue this as Officer Grayson I might encounter SOME resistance. I tried to get assigned to a child sex ring case not long after Beth was found, but the head of the investigation had "serious doubts," about my ability to be objective. .
Also as repugnant as child pornography is to most people especially police officers. I suspect some of Bludhaven finest may be benefiting from the ugly trade either directly or indirectly
Right now I'm doing research on the net. I'm surprised and sickened at the amount I've found. Before I actually begin looking for the pictures and videos. I went undercover first in net chat rooms where I found out about underground pedophile clubs, with such innocent sounding names as Playtime and ABC. I forced myself to go to the clubs in disguise.
I was child lover called Robbie Gray. I found out more than I wish I did there. I took pictures of the patrons discreetly. They would look at a picture of a child then money would change hands. The person making the payment would walk out the door with a smile on his face. I had no proof that anything illegal took place. I nearly got sick listening to men anywhere from 20 to 60 talking about what they've done with their young "lovers" and what they'd like to do to other helpless children. Again because I had no proof that their stories were anything but talk I couldn't arrest anyone.
A few of the regulars asked me about my preferences. Do I like little girls or boys better? What ages? They can get me any type I want, with any level of experience. What was the best experience I ever had with one of my conquests?
I made up a story involving a 12-year-old girl. I used details from the years experience I've had with such cases in both of my jobs. The whole time I was telling it I wanted to throw up. How could a grown man view a little girl that age or younger as a sex object? I couldn't help but think of my sweet baby girl. She's ten now but wasn't even two when she was molested.
When I left about midnight, I thought to myself I will be back, and with the full force of the law behind me next time. I'll protect you children from these degenerates somehow.
Deep in a part of my heart I try not to explore I know Beth could've wound up being used in the ways these kids are. They seem to be passed around like a joint at a Grateful Dead concert. I thank God every day Bruce and I were able to find her before that sicko could do too much harm to her. I just wish we could've found her before he even had a chance to touch her.
I go to a web address for an 'adult" site called "Candy Land" that one of the patrons gave me. It's supposed to be run by one the regulars at PlayTime. If I find out who. He is the guy's toast.
The opening page looks straight enough, the words,"Candy Land" in red and white stripes. There's a picture of a child in a bathtub; the kind any parent might have in their photo album. I'm beginning to wonder if the guy I got the address from suspected what I was up to and gave me a phony web address.
I click on the age verification, then enter. I soon realize I'm in the right place. I place a floppy disk in my drive to down load evidence. I see children of all ages in various states of undress. Others have adults doing unspeakable things to children both in still photos and video clips. The father in me wants to cry for the children, then find the people responsible for the filth, and break their necks. What I see next nearly stops my heart. It's Beth!?!?
