VENTURES

"WOWWWW I can't believe this... I would be spending my first night in a prison cell at Dolly Madison Correctional Faciltiy for women, instead, I'm still in Philadelphia in a courtroom at 8:00 pm... Un believable..." said our client Debra Brown.

"There are lots of unbelievable things in the world Debra." said Karen..

"I never got to thank you for arguing my case and getting it thrown out...Thank You." said Debra,.

"It was a team effort..." I added...

Natalie smiled...

"Oh Debra, this is my husband, Sean...He was the other attorney who argued your case." said Brooke.

"Pleased to meet you Debra." said Sean.

"THANK YOU SO MUCH! PLEASED TO MEET YOU!" said Debra Brown , who whispered to Natalie.

"That's her husband?? Your girl got herself a soul brother eh?

...No wonder she's so down...I love it..." she said.

"We've been Besties as long as we both have been practicing law...We met in D.C., when we were working for the Government...Then we both returned to Philly and became Public Defenders, then Assistant District Attorneys and finally here , Staff Attorneys for the Wrongful Conviction/Conviction Integrity Unit."explained Natalie.

"WOW YOU TWO REALLY HAVE HISTORY!! I like that..I like her tastes in men too...He's cute." giggled Debra... She liked Natalie and Brooke a lot.

COURTROOM-C

NIGHT COURT- TUESDAY NIGHT , 8:00 pm

In Philadelphia, Night Court only operates two nights a week....Tuesday and Thursday, Tonight was Tuesday...and fortunately...We got an arraignment date of 8:00 pm. We had been working furiously fast.

The Judge in this case would not be the Judge in the actual case....

Neither Lt. Tragg ,nor the arresting detective in this case was there... Night court was too low profile for him...No witnesses...No media..and a bunch of Judges and ADA's who were mostly older Judges and ADA's about to retire...It was lightweight. It was in session from 7:00 pm- 10:00 pm Tuesdays and Thursdays...We were quite fortunate to get a date.

The ADA that did show up was not going to be the ADA that tried the case...He had only the basic out line of the case at hand... He basically wanted to go home...So he didn't really put up much of a fight.

Karen came with the Bail Bondsman that Olivia and Yvette always used...

Me, Natalie,Brooke ,Debra Brown and Sean all sat together...

"I didn't know they had court at night.." said Debra...

"A lot of people don't know.... Including many attorneys. It meets two nights a week...Tuesday and Thursday..."I said.

"We were very fortunate to get an appointment this week and on this short of notice." said Natalie.

"Your charactor witnesses are here." said Brooke.

"I'm glad my girls came through...." said Debra.

''So many of them. ''Well it's showtime...let's go."laughed Sean.

We presented 29 charactor witnesses... That and the fact that Debra Brown,had been gainfully employed with no priors whatsoever and such a good name in the community convinced the judge that she was no flight risk... She was released on her own recognizance...

"OH MY GOD!! WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?" asked Debra Brown...

"It means you are a free woman until we get you a new trial and free you for good.. You can go home Debra." said Natalie.

''Do you have someplace to stay? We can drop you off." said Brooke.

"I'm staying with my sister....Sonia...If you can drop me off at her house that will be just fine.." said Debra.. "Thank you all sooooo much." she said.

"Here's our address...Stop by and see us tomorrow...We'll have a hot breakfast for you and everything and you'll get to meet some of our friends..." said Karen.

"You guys are the best....I love yall." said Debra.

''Well looks like you guys didn't need my services..."said the Bail Bondsman..

"Thanks anyway Gus." said Natalie.

It had been a good night.

II-

It was a starry night....

We were home finally!

"Staring at the stars? "asked Natalie as I looked out the window...

"Yeah...just daydreaming a bit." I said.

"It's night time silly...Unzip me..." she said..

''Sure." I said. I un zipped another tight form fitting dress and marveled at Natalie's sexy body....My eyes nearly popping out of their sockets...

"I knew you wouldn't mind that.." she laughed..Natalie knew exactly what she was doing...Driving me nuts.

I slipped her panties down...

"Ummmmmmmmmm I like these." I said.

"Is there a pair I have you don't like?" she asked..

"I don't think so." I said.

"Yeah, I don't think so either." she laughed..

"I like everything about you.." I said.

" You're not so bad yourself." she laughed as we began kissing....

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm!" she moaned as our kissing got hotter.

Natalie and I lay down....She opened her legs wide and eased herself down on me and moved up and down on me slowly....She was so wet and smelled so good ,I was losing my mind....

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND!! IS IT GOOD TO YOU? IS IT GOOD TO YOU BABY?" she asked me..

"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" I cried out....

"It'S GOOD TO ME !UMMMMMMMM let me have all of it.....OUUUUUUUUUUUUU...OH MY GODDDDD!" she moaned.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NATALIE!"I moaned.

OUUUUUUUUUUUUU...OH MY GODDDDD! YOU'RE SO BIG AND HARDDDD! OUUUU!" she moaned.

She began to ride me slowly....I loved looking into her pretty face and eyes....as she kissed me softly and slowly and rode me like a surfer rides the waves...

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM DAVID!!! OUUUUUUUUUUUU!" she screamed

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I cried out...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU DAVID YOU ARE SO DAMN BIG! UMMMMMMMM!" she moaned as she rode me softly and slowly like a surfer rides the waves and felt her whole body trembling...her head turning from side to side...and her arms flailing...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"she cooed. We sat on the side of the bed ,kissing like kissing was going out of style and Natalie just riding me slowly...driving me into near delirium..

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I COULD DO THIS ALL NIGHT!!! WOUUUUUUUUU!" she cooed.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY DAMNNNNNN! I COULD LET YOU!!! OHHHHHH!!!!" I moaned.

I turned her over and entered her missionary style...

"UMMMMMMMMMMM NATALIE...NATALIE..." I moaned..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND" she cooed as I flipped her over, spread her legs and mounted her..

"NATALIE JEAN....OUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

"IT MUST BE GOOD TO YOU BABY! YOU CALLIN ME NATALIE JEAN!!!" she cried out..

"OH IT IS...IT IS!" I moaned.

Natalie wrapped her arms around my neck and her legs around my waist as I thrusted away...I didn't know if I was coming or going she felt so good...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND" she cooed as I flipped her over, spread her legs and mounted her..

"NATALIE JEAN....OUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"I MOANED....

We kissed passionately practically slobbering over each other..

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" she moaned.

"AWWWW! OHHHHHHHHHHH!"I cried out.

I couldn't get enough of Natalie and likewise..She couldn't get enough of me...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND!! IS IT GOOD TO YOU? IS IT GOOD TO YOU BABY?" she asked me..

"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" I cried out....

"UMMMMMMMM let me have all of it.....OUUUUUUUUUUUUU...OH MY GODDDDD!" she moaned.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NATALIE!"I moaned.

NINE TO TEN HOURS SLIPPED SEAMLESSLY BY..

Natalie wound up sleeping on top of me peacefully as I softly rubbed her butt. Her left leg still trembling....We both drifted off to sleep....

And Next door at Brooke and Sean's house....

"This is one of the few nights I feel totally fulfilled.. We got that woman's conviction tossed out and got her released from custody in practically a weekend...If only all of our cases could so easily be worked out.." said Brooke.

"Karen said she knows a Judge that will give us a hearing as soon as next week...Serendipity's mother, Judge Thelma Harper..."said Sean..

"Ouuuuuuu good....I've always wanted to try a case in her courtroom." said Brooke.

"Know what I want?" asked Sean softly...

"To make love to me.." said Brooke meekly...

"Ummmmmmm I want to make love to you too Sean....OUUUUUU" she said in between kisses..

Their kissing got more passionate...

"I feel much much better." said Sean in between more kisses...

"I'm glad...I'm glad you feel better." said Brooke.

They lie across the bed, kissing passionately...

Sean slipped her panties off of her...

"These are pretty!" said Sean...

"Thank you...I'm glad you like them." said Brooke.

"I like all of your panties and bras." said Sean..

"I'm glad of that too!" laughed Brooke.

He turned her over and entered her slowly.....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Chocolate Daddy this is so good!!!...Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..ummmmmmmm..OHHHHHHHHHH MY GODDDDD!" she moaned..

''Vanilla , I love you." he said

"OH MY GOD! I dream about this during the day." he snarled as he thrusted mightily into her...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh DADDY!....ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.. CHOCOLATE DADDY!!Do you?"she cooed..

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh girrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl... Yes I do!" he moaned..

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..you think about me a lot.."she moaned...

Her head turned from side to side....tears streamed down her face...her body began to tremble... She couldn't believe she was having an orgasm so fast...

NINE TO TEN HOURS of non stop lovemaking in their bed, slipped aimlessly by...

Neither one of them could get enough of the other...The legs on the bed were rocking so hard they were in danger of cracking, yet they didn't.....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..This is sooooooooooooooo good...Ouuuuuuuuu.." he moaned..

Tears and perspiration running down her face..Her body trembling...she was cumming so hard, that she was shaking out of control....tears were just streaming down her face....Her head turning from side to side.

Like Natalie and I, She wound up resting comfortably on Sean's chest..catching her breath....

III-

The Next Morning we all met in our building...

in our ultra modern cafeteria...

Debra was on time...and was there when we arrived... Using the building pass we gave her..

"WOWWWW THIS IS SOME NICE SET UP YOU HAVE HERE!! YOU GUYS WORK HERE HUH?" said Debra.

"Yes, you didn't have to wait for us...Go On, get yourself some food...As you can see there is a lot to choose from." said Karen.

"I see...OuUUUUUUU!" said Debra.

"I've got somebody I want you to meet....This is Bonnie Shay, She is an Attorney and an Insurance Investigator for Cyclops Insurance....She's going to be working with us..." said Karen.

"Pleased to meet you....From the beginning...I never thought you were guilty of Arson, but your former Attorney and I bumped heads once too often during your trial....He didn't like me being around and wouldn't accept any imput from me." said Bonnie.

"Yes, he was a bit of a butthead at times...Wouldn't listen to me either..." said Debra Brown...

''Well you don't have to worry about that anymore... You're with different attorneys now..."said Natalie.

"We aren't burned out and we don't fall asleep in the middle of the trial." I said.

"Oh My God and he used to Fart too! Loud as hell... He was so embarrassing..."said Debra.

"Girrrrrrl, I don't know how you stood it...."laughed Brooke...

Sean was laughing loudly....

''Everything smells delish." said Jazzy.

"It's Pancakes ,Waffles and Eggs, how different can they smell?"laughed her husband, Dabnis.

"What she means is they smell fresh..."said Kayla.

''Well yeah, they are cooking everything to order....I like that...Nothing sits around."said Ray.

"This place is A-1 in my book." said Jessica.

"Not to mention , it's a safe space,. A safe haven from Lt. Tragg and others." said her husband, Chip.

"Yes that's one of the things I like the most about it..." laughed Karen as she came to the table with her food.

"It sure feels good not being locked up, moving freely and eating good food."said Debra.

''We knew once we got your conviction tossed, getting you out of jail period was a no-brainer." said Natalie.

"Yeah....And you staying with your sister is another plus." I said.

"Just keep a low profile...as low as you can...Don't make any waves.."said Brooke.

"I'm sure she won't...She's not one of Lt. Tragg's collars...Won't be any unhinged Detective dogging her trail." said Sean.

"I'm glad we have Central Air in this building...It's sooo hot out today..."said Zoey...

''105 Degrees I heard.." said Lem.

"Ouuuuuuuuuu that's hot..." said Renee....

"It's as hot as Fish Grease out today." said her husband, Tyrell.

"And we were talking about eating on the rooftop....Not on your life..." said Paris.

"Relax, we are supposed to get a Thunderstorm tonight I heard." said Tony...

"That'll cool things off." said Lee.

"I hope so....but it could make things hotter or at least more humid." said Matthew..

"That used to happen in Puerto Rico.." said Nina.

"I remember....New York City too!" said Carlos.

"Ummmmmm I'm good and Hungry this morning." said Ms. Yvette.

"I am too!" said Keith Jones.

"You worked up an appetite last night and early this morning hot stuff." said Bee Bee, smiling.

''So Did you Papi, Aye Mios dios..."said Sofia.

"We almost didn't have time to shower and get dressed for work." said Kahlil..

Jade just laughed at their conversation.

"Ms. Virginia, My sister and I both thank you for getting these wonderful attorneys who got me out of jail and got a new trial ordered for me..." said Debra Brown..

"When Sonia reached out to me... I knew just the ones to handle your case....I'm glad you're free again." said Virginia, hugging her... "This is my husband, Judge Jetty Dukes...He works in the building at the Legal Ethics Board." said Virginia.

"Pleased to meet you." said Jetty.

"Ms. Virginia, you know how to work it...Got you a cushy job as an Office Manager at a law firm and married to a Judge....My sister told me you were smart and resourceful." laughed Debra..

"A lot of that was luck baby girl..." said Virginia, Smiling..

After Breakfast we all retreated to our suite and our conference room-

"This is our Office and Conference Room."said Karen.

"NICEEEEEEEEE!" said Debra Brown...

"Now, we know that the fire was electrical in nature...We have on file that you hired two electricians and that they did a piss poor job." said Natalie.

''We studied them and we see they had several consumer complaints against them. One wasn't even licensced....He was a jack leg of sorts." I said.

"I didn't hire either one of them...That no good ex-boyfriend of mine, Reggie Owens hired them... He knew one of them when he was in the joint and the other one was recommended to him by one of his scuzzball friends.." said Debra.

"Okay, an electrical fire burned down your house Last winter..A House you two were renting..."said Brooke.

"I was renting the house, Reggie was paying me rent and crashing there...In my bedroom for a time and then after we broke up on the living room couch..."said Debra..

''After the fire...He approached Cyclops Insurance about a settlement...A settlement he felt he was entitled to half of." said Sean.

"I don't know why he thought that....That was my place....My name is the only name on the rental agreement...He has no stake in my place...When I wouldn't agree to give him any money he tried to strangle me...Then he went to the cops and told them that I burned down the house, which I didn't do...

Next thing I know...I'm arrested and charged with Arson and he produced some doctored tape recording of me admitting to arson...That's not my voice on the tape." said Debra.

Bonnie produced the Zip Drive with the recorded message on it..

"I have the Zip drive with the recording on it...We are going to get a copy of your voice and compare it to this...If it's not your voice...There goes the state's case against you.." said Bonnie.

"Heyyyyy you're pretty sharp." said Debra.

"I was a Public Defender and an Assistant District Attorney in New York City for years before returning to my native Philadelphia and getting a P.I. License and getting a job at Cyclops Insurance..."said Bonnie Shay.

"Bonnie's kind of like a jack of all trades.." I said.

"At this point I'd advise you to turn off your cell phone and disable the GPS and give it to us for safe keeping...We'll lock it in our safe and return it to you after the trial."said Natalie.

She passed her a burner phone.

''Write this number down...Don't contact us through our business phones or personal phone numbers...You Use this number." said Natalie.

"This is a Portal...You can use this to contact us and to get updates on the progress of your case...You won't have to keep coming up here." said Brooke.

"WOW! You guys think of everything....." said Debra, astonished....

"We want you to be exonerated.... with as little problems as possible....."said Karen...

''Trust me, We are good at this." Laughed Sean..

"OH I BELIEVE YOU!"laughed Debra.

IV-

THE OFFICE OF ORVILLE NEWLY, ATTORNEY AT LAW...

A newly opened bottle of Jameson's Irish Whiskey was on his desk...

Attorney Orville Newly looked up as three attractive young women and myself walked into his office...

"WELLLLLLL HELLLLLLLOOOOOO!! WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?" he asked.

"I'm Karen Page -Benz, Attorney at the Wrongful Conviction/Conviction Integrity Unit and these are my associates,

"Attorney Brooke Marks...."

"Attorney Natalie Charles "

"and her husband, Attorney David Charles."she said.

"You....David Charles...We worked a case together, a few years back...You were a Public defender then...I remember you." he said.

"Yes we did Mr. Newly..." I said.

"I don't know if you know or not, but we have taken on the case of Debra Brown....We got her conviction tossed and we arraigned her a few nights ago and got her released ,pending a new trial." said Karen...

"Ohhhhh I'm so glad....Sorry about what happened to her....."In February 2025, a fire destroyed the home of 49-year-old Debra Brown. Debra's home had extensive electrical problems, and she had spent the night with her sister after the electrician failed to show. The insurance company declared that the fire was electrical in nature.

There were two electricians who supposedly worked on her house....One of them was an ex-con, who didn't even have a license...the other had a license but had so many complaints against him that I don't know how he got any work...

Her ratty ex-boyfriend, who was living there...A Reggie Owens or something wanted a piece of the insurance money....She refused, arguing rightfully that it was her property and all he did was crash there....

She told me her tried to choke her out and threaten her.... She said she reported this to the police, but I couldn't find the complaint...and the ADA....a guy named Bruce Greene, kept that and any information about the electricians who worked on the property out of the transcripts...So the Jury never heard about it..

Reggie came up with what I think was a bogus recording of her admitting to arson...and she got convicted.. I attempted to appeal...but my first appeal was shot down...I'm glad you guys were able to get her out." he said.

''We have a copy of the recording and we are going to do a voice analysis to determine if that's her or not.." said Brooke.

He smiled at Brooke..

"You married? Maybe we can uh go out for drinks and discuss this further.." he asked..

Natalie cracked up...

Brooke showed him her wedding bands...

"Yes I am married and there is nothing further to discuss...We came here for your case files and information on those two electricians....We are going to subpoena them..." said Brooke.

"Well you can forget about one of them....He's dead! He uh accidentally electrocuted himself trying to uh wire a home..." he said ..

I couldn't help it..I snickered...

So Did Karen....

"I'll give you the name and address of the other electrician and of Reggie Owens... Subpoena his ass too..I should have subpoenaed him the first trial.." said Orville Newly...
