April 5, 2008: Assignment--Guard valuables during grand opening of Caroline's Jewelry, Lo Lo.
4:55PM SLT: Begin scoping out the place, observing the location of all valuable jewelry.
5:00PM: Guests begin to arrive. Several of them are worth observing as potential suspects should anything occur.
6:08PM: Caroline shouts "the diamond rings are missing!" A set of diamond rings, one man's ring and one woman's, are missing from a pedestal.
6:30PM: Brian Mason sneaks around in a suspicious manner; I tail him.
6:40PM: Brian flees the scene and in the process, drops the rings. I pursue him, gun drawn.
6:45PM: Brian eludes capture and returns to the party, where he hides among the many guests.
6:50PM: Caroline offers sets of rings to all the guests to make up for my intrusive questins.
7:00PM: The party continues;I watch several suspects in case they try something else.
8:00PM: Off duty, I return to my office/apartment and log my notes. I publish the log as a permanent public record. Beware this Brian Mason, he appears to be a clever jewel thief!

I look forward to reading more about your cases, Ed.
Hi Ed, you need some back up, just gimme a call. I'm out of therapy again so can hold a gun more or less straight again. More or less.
