Miso: O.k. raise your right hand do you swear to tell truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you God?
Jake: Um I will yes (looks very confused)
Miso: Whats up Jake how you feeling right now?
Jake: All right I guess.
Miso: OK, dude, tell me about your case.
Jake: I robbed a bank
Miso: Why?
Jake: I needed money because somebody stole my wallet.
Miso: From where?
Jake: I was camping at night and somebody cut a hole in my tent and stole it.
Miso: What? Why were you camping?
Jake: I had just gotten to Hawaii and I didnt have anyplace to stay so I bought a tent and camped on the beach.
Miso: What happened at the bank?
Jake: I just handed her a letter and she gave me some money.
Miso: Whatd the letter say?
Jake: It just said, "Give me some money, I have a gun," and when she read it I lifted up my shirt.
Miso: What kind of gun was it?
Jake: Just a bb-gun, I bought it at the Sports Authority.
Miso: And then what happened?
Jake: She put some money on the counter.
Miso: How much was it?
Jake: $11,200
Miso: is it true that you tried to get away on a mountain bike?
Jake: Yeah, I left it around the corner.
Miso: OK, so what happened next?
Jake: I got away and then I got an apartment over near McGully shopping center on Limu St. Do you know where that is?
Miso: Um no.
Jake: Oh yeah, and then I bought another mountain bike and a nice T.V. My landlord kept seeing me come home with all this stuff. I think she was watching me.
Miso: Didnt you pay her four months rent in advance in cash?
Jake: Yeah, so.
Miso: Dont you think that might have tripped her out a little?
Jake: I dont know.
Miso: So anyway, how did you get caught?
Jake: My landlord turned me in after she saw me on Crimestoppers. She recognized me from the surveillance tape. She got a thousand dollars for turning me in. Neat, huh?
Miso: Uh, yeah, I guess so. Didnt you wear a disguise or anything ?
Jake: I wore a black hat and sunglasses.
Miso: OK, one last thing, I heard something about a dog. Whats up with that?
Jake: Yeah, I thre w it off a bridge.
Miso: Whoah, thats fucked up.
Jake: Can I have my candy bar now? (I promised him a candy bar if he did the interview)
Miso: Youre not all there, huh Jake?
Jake: Give me a candy bar. (With a real commanding voice)
Miso: OK, but on one condition: dont ever come near me again.
Jake: Ok.
Needless to say, I slept with one eye open watching Jake for the next week until he got transferred to another facility.
Plus: Jakes not getting out for five years.
Minus: 10 guys just like him got out today.
Next time Ill interview a gangbanger or some other upstanding pillar of society! Until then may all your wishes be champagne kisses. Over and Out ---Miso
