How the stake out went!

I went to the PI's house and he let me listen to some calls he had to make and see how difficult people who work for police departments can be. He has been trying to get public records for 3 weeks now and they are still not being very helpful.

Then we drove to the house of a main witness that he needs to talk with about some testimony he made in a trial. The witness was not home and his neighbor (who is also his brother in law) was not home either.
The witness works part time at a rental car company so we drove over there to see if he was working. He was not at work.

We had lunch and did some errands and then returned to the witness's home. He was still not at home. He is know to spend time at the local hospital so we headed there to see if we could find him. He was not at the hospital. While we were at the hospital, the PI also had another witness from the same case that works there and we tried to find her. We couldn't find her either.

We walked to the courthouse and checked out all the record departments to see if our witness had any charges filled against him. He did not have any. The records were all paper that we had to look through.

We left the hospital and went to the rental company one more time. The witness was not there but we found out from one of the employees that he works tomorrow from 9-3.

We left and found out where the other witness's house is located and drove to her house and checked it out. We drove home.
Alot of time spent and we didn't get to talk with anyone.

Anticipating my first day with a real PI

I was contacted last night by a private investigator who asked me if I would be interested in going with him today to interview a man who was convicted of "keying a car". Not such a bad crime, but the guy is actually appealing the case in RI and the PI has been hired by an attorney to follow up.

I will keep you appraised of my first time out with a PI.
