1
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: You know that it takes two people to make a prostitute.

2
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: You can't lay all the blame on the woman. You

3
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: can't do it.

4
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: A young reporter drove his family from the nation's capital

5
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 2: to a small town about four hours south, his wife beside.

6
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 3: Him, his children in the back.

7
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 2: Rodney had a family to support, a woman who believed

8
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 2: in him, who followed him on his wild journeys, sweet

9
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 2: little kids with chubby smiles that pierced his heart with

10
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 2: the reminder, there.

11
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 3: Is more than yourself to think of here.

12
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 2: You promised this wife that you can make it as

13
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: a writer anywhere. You promised her this move would be

14
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:12,479
Speaker 2: worth it. You owe this family everything. No one owes

15
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: you anything, and yet they've given freely their patience, their faith,

16
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 2: cooked dinners kept.

17
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: Warm in the oven.

18
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: I love you, daddies, even as your mind spun into stories,

19
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 2: copy headlines, be present with these children.

20
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 3: Give a good life to this wife.

21
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 2: There were imperatives more important than your down career, Rodney thought,

22
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: and yet nonetheless he drove on metropolitan streets, spinning into

23
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 2: fields of tobacco. Rodney needed to make this work, after all,

24
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: he thought. He also had himself to whom he owed.

25
00:01:59,040 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 3: Quite a bit.

26
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 2: Couldn't forget about that guy, hard working kid, a dreamer,

27
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: a risk taker. You should be a writer, his high

28
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: school English teacher told him once. He never forgot that,

29
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: and so over the weeks to come, he'd set up

30
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: shop in that small office in that small town.

31
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 3: He let his.

32
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 2: View of the cows in the field inspire him. Each

33
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: one of those bovines had a different set of spots,

34
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 2: a different story. Hell, maybe they even had feelings. Probably did.

35
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 3: After some time. Rodney even had.

36
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: Little names for his favorites, could identify them by a

37
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: flip of ear or turn of tail. You could make

38
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: a story about almost anything if you only looked at

39
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: it in the right way.

40
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 3: See.

41
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: That was the thing people miss about his line of work,

42
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 2: his field of art.

43
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 3: They think it's.

44
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: All bald reportage, a mere recitation of facts that any

45
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: willing party could pen. They don't know that the writer

46
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 2: is a photographer of moments, a seer of meaning in

47
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 2: scenes others find. Mundane Rodney could find a story and

48
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: just about anything. When I spoke to him in early

49
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, he told me about one such occurrence.

50
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 4: It's flow news week. A couple of people walk in

51
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 4: the office and started telling me this story about one

52
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 4: guy had been a intelligence officer during World War Two.

53
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 4: He was driving from great to Danville, noticed this kind

54
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 4: of emotional in the side of the road, stops walk

55
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: over the little hill. There's a flying saucer. So he

56
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: goes into great detail about this, and I, of course

57
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 4: thinking meticulous notes after he finished it, I was thinking

58
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 4: very much. I think, wow, out of entything. And you

59
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 4: start calling people, and the number of people that have

60
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 4: heard this story was phenomenal. Wrote the story and we

61
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 4: used to put parts of a flying saucer. We got

62
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 4: a huge reaction to it.

63
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: As yet another lady at church inquired about that, UFO

64
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: Rodney thought, well, the types of stories I cover out

65
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 2: here in the country might look a little different than

66
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 2: the high stakes drama I covered in Washington, But well,

67
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 2: I might just like it that way. You wouldn't find

68
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: any Greek tragedies or epic intrigue out here in the boondocks,

69
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 2: but if you could, Rodney would be the man to

70
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 2: find it. Truck shot brothels run by a web of

71
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 2: X cons, a Commonwealth attorney wasted on whiskey and power

72
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: protection exchanged for cash, flesh, a brash.

73
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 3: Local reporter exposing it all.

74
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: This is hookergate, criminals and libertines in the South, And

75
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 2: I am your hosts, Doctor Lindsey Byron, author, historian, and

76
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 2: lifelong wayward woman. This forgotten scandal happened in my hometown.

77
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: Join me as I use crumbling news clippings, interviews, and

78
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 2: dramatic reenactments to bring to life for the first time

79
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 2: in nearly fifty years, this wild ride of hedonistic corruption.

80
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: Episode two. This woman was different. In a twenty nineteen

81
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 2: article for The Atlantic entitled The Reinvention of Danville, author

82
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 2: James Fallow describes the region that would play host to

83
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:26,280
Speaker 2: juicier dramas than Rodney could have yet foreseen. Danville is

84
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: a major city within Pennsylvania County. Fallow rights. In its day,

85
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: it was one of the richest places in the Piedmont

86
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: area and a major center of first the tobacco and

87
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 2: then the textile industries. Danville was also, for a one

88
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 2: week period in April eighteen sixty five, the final capital

89
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 2: of the Confederacy, with implications down to the present. By

90
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: the mid twentieth century, Danville and the surrounding area clutched

91
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 2: still to its Confederate roots. However, another major source of

92
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 2: identity came from the local textile mill, a global industry leader.

93
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 2: The Great White Mill, with its glowing red letters, looms

94
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: over the memories of my childhood home of dan River Mills.

95
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 2: Those letters burned into the night, reflecting on the dark

96
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 2: water below home. The mill's influence was wide ranging and profound.

97
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 2: Fallow rights businesses in the area discouraged higher education and

98
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: brought in workers straight out of public schools.

99
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 3: I admit we are backward.

100
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 2: You'll remember local court clerk Samuel Swanson conceded at the

101
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 2: time of the federal indictment in nineteen seventy seven. We've

102
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: never had to progress. For those looking from the outside end,

103
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 2: this backwardsness found its source not in issues of class, education,

104
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 2: or labor, but rather in the area's conservatism and religiosity.

105
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 2: Danville's nickname, after all, is the city of Churches. While

106
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 2: researching Hooker Gate, I interviewed lifelong Pennsylvania County citizen Frankie Jones,

107
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 2: whose father, Austin Jones, served on the grand jury that

108
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: would ultimately indict the major players of the Hooker Gates scandal.

109
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 2: Frankie told me about a time in which his father

110
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 2: was confronted by a national reporter regarding the character of

111
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 2: the place we all called home.

112
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 5: He had a Washington Post rapport lady come up to him,

113
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 5: middle Gatherine, when he was stayed vice president of Jin

114
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 5: Association Realtors, and she said, where are you from? He said, Dan, Well,

115
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 5: he should? May I ask you a question? Awfully? She sure?

116
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 5: She said, why y'all so down conservative down there? He said,

117
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 5: you're letting him will tell you something. He said, you

118
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 5: weren't born in a depression, He said, back then we

119
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 5: didn't have wealth out apartment at the church? Was we

120
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 5: have wealth out apartment?

121
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,080
Speaker 2: Here in the Bible belt where conservatism and old time

122
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: religion retained its hold on the area's sense of self.

123
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 2: The brothels seemed to have functioned as the localities id

124
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,840
Speaker 2: the outlet for the repressed desires and needs of a

125
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 2: people otherwise busy with church socials.

126
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 5: The big shot in dan Will was Barker. I can't

127
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 5: remember his first name, but Tom Barker. He ran to

128
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 5: Danbell operation.

129
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 6: Now, mister Barker, what contact did you have with Herold,

130
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 6: Wayne Downing, Herbert Owen Boyd and Aubrahad Just during the

131
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 6: years nineteen seventy four to nineteen seventy seven.

132
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: Wow, Janet worked at those for them, and.

133
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 7: She was your wife during much of that period. Is

134
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 7: that correct?

135
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: Yes?

136
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 5: All right?

137
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: What kind of work was she doing? She was a prostitute.

138
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 2: Tommy set up in bed, you and me, Janet, We

139
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: could make some damn money, he told the naked woman

140
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 2: next to him.

141
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 3: She was much.

142
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: Younger than him, but every bit is wise. Janet pulled

143
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 2: the sheets to her armpits and set up. She lit

144
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: a joint before she replied.

145
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's make some damn money.

146
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 2: At nineteen, Janet had only one hard and fast rule,

147
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 2: and that was to live hard and fast. If she

148
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 2: had a second rule, which she didn't, it would be

149
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: also be sweet.

150
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 3: That's how a woman could get what she wanted.

151
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,359
Speaker 2: It wouldn't be so bad, Tommy told her, gingerly, accepting

152
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 2: the joint from her slender fingers. And I I wouldn't mind,

153
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 2: you wouldn't. I want to move hiss out of this

154
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: trailer parking into a house, A nice brick house, Janet,

155
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 2: A big one too, imagine it.

156
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 3: I promise you that.

157
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 2: Tommy had come from a big family with little attention

158
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 2: nor money to spare.

159
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 3: He tried the straight route.

160
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 2: Hell, he'd served in the military until he shot himself

161
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: in the arm trying to kill a snake. Some thugs

162
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 2: claimed he did it on purpose, just because now he

163
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 2: collected a pension from Uncle Sam. The pension wasn't enough, though,

164
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 2: so he sought out other ways to stack cash. A

165
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 2: freedom loving man with a passion for excitement, Tommy want

166
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 2: the type to be pinned down by a square job,

167
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 2: so he'd tried other things. Sure, little robbery here and there,

168
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,640
Speaker 2: silver Pilford from the homes of the rich, steaks from

169
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 2: the chop house, heart sweaty secret work. So accustomed was

170
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 2: he to making money the wrong way that it want

171
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 2: nothing to invite another into this way of life.

172
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 3: And Janet, to.

173
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 2: Be fair, was no child. No, she was a woman

174
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: with her own mind. The truck stop enterprise was only

175
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: the latest opportunity. Hell, there'd be others in the future,

176
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 2: opportunities that wouldn't require so much of her. But to

177
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: get there, they had to start here. He traced a

178
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 2: finger along her jaw. You are so smart, He kissed

179
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 2: her temple so strong he stamped out the joint and

180
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 2: climbed on top of her again. He would never get

181
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: his fill of this woman. Many women had come his way,

182
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: many had laid in this bed. When he first asked

183
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: Janet for her number, after weeks of tipping her heavy

184
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 2: for coffee and pie, he figured, well, she'd just be

185
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 2: another notch on the bedpost. But something about her was different,

186
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 2: something about the way she popped her bubblegum while she

187
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 2: busied herself around that diner, head high and unaffected by

188
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 2: the stairs of interested men, and drove him mad with desire.

189
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 2: And he he was different too. Three weeks had passed

190
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 2: since they first kissed, made love, and professed undying devotion,

191
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 2: all in the same night. Her body ached from the

192
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 2: now frequent acceptance of him, a big man in always

193
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 2: mind blowing a primal sign of a king. Janet was

194
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 2: in love. I can do anything, she promised him. Nos

195
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:44,359
Speaker 2: to nose Anything in life worth having, she knew required

196
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 2: some sacrifice. Ain't nothing for free, not this man, not

197
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: this love, and certainly not the rent. I know that's right,

198
00:14:54,280 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 2: he agreed. After they finished their second round, Tommy picked

199
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 2: up the phone.

200
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 3: Hey, herb, I got a girl for y'all.

201
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: Do you remember when Robin arrived from Chicago? Mister Dowdy

202
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: I don't remember the exact month.

203
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 8: It was in seventy five.

204
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 1: No one introduced you at all, did they?

205
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 2: No?

206
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: They did not?

207
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 2: All?

208
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: Right, where did you meet her?

209
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 8: It is truck stop?

210
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 2: Was she a.

211
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 1: Working girl at that time?

212
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 7: She was a prostitute who employed her?

213
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 3: I did.

214
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: He'd spent his life loving Southern women, indeed extolling their virtues.

215
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: A Southern woman would cook for you, clean for you,

216
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 2: take care of your needs, and do it all with

217
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 2: a slow, sweet drawl. Yet there was something about this

218
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 2: woman's accent, the clipped vowels, the quick harshness of her cadence.

219
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 3: That turned Harold Wayne into Mush.

220
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 2: Into mush A man like him impossible, but this woman.

221
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 3: Was different. Where are you from?

222
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 2: He asked, leaning across the counter. He had a rule

223
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 2: about dating working girls, and anyways, he wasn't exactly a

224
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 2: free man. Robin ignored him, staring instead at her nails,

225
00:16:50,880 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 2: which she filed. Harold Wayne cleared his throat, where you're from?

226
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 2: She didn't look up, and she responded, I'm here in

227
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: this truck stop now, So what does it matter where

228
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: I'm from?

229
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 3: Ah? A quick witted one.

230
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 2: An attitude like that might not get you far. The

231
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 2: young woman stopped her filing and met his gaze.

232
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 3: I have gotten quite far, exactly as I am.

233
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 2: She answered, and returned to her manicure. And by the way,

234
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 2: she added, without looking up, Chicago.

235
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 3: I'm from Chicago.

236
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 2: Ah, Chicago. That's why she was so disarmingly unmannered. Your

237
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: accent is beautiful, he dared. How, why, what the hell

238
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 2: was the reason that this woman made him nervous.

239
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 3: That's why I don't hear often, she responded.

240
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,719
Speaker 2: These good old boys down south are prejudiced against Northerners.

241
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 3: Folks say they can't understand me.

242
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: Well, the feeling's mutual, honey, some of these gobs can

243
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,399
Speaker 2: be stupid or if the heads was cut.

244
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 3: Off At this, the young woman laughed.

245
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 2: Flashed him at last that sligrint that would addict him

246
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 2: for years to come. I'm Robin, she told him. Harold

247
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 2: Wayne was used to lining him up and knocking him down.

248
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 2: A salesman by trade and by heart, the man could

249
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 2: charm the most aloof on available woman. Hell, he seduced

250
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,239
Speaker 2: a score of premium chickadees under his employment in just

251
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 2: the short time he'd been running this scheme. But something

252
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 2: about the upward tilt of Robin's chin and the knowing

253
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: in her eyes told Harold Wayne that this one was

254
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 2: gonna be a challenge. How long you been working here,

255
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 2: he asked, Well, hell, you ought to know, mister Dowdy.

256
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 2: You run the place, sure, but I don't have no everything.

257
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 2: Phillis takes care of hiring sometimes.

258
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 3: Phillips is she her old lady. H W D cleared

259
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 3: his throat again. Are you a new to this line

260
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 3: of work?

261
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 2: I am not, in fact, mister Dowdy, I've probably been

262
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 2: in this game longer than you. Please call me Harold Wayne,

263
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 2: thing Harold Wayne, and you're too.

264
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 3: Young to have been in any game longer than me.

265
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 2: I might be young, she answered, but only if you

266
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 2: were using the metric of time. By other metrics, I

267
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 2: am quite old. Harold Wayne, of course, was the old one.

268
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 2: At forty, he was fully twice Robin's age. Yet he

269
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 2: too was only his age when using the metric of time,

270
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 2: because otherwise he was as youthful as any young boh.

271
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 3: Okay, old soul. Where else have you worked?

272
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 2: I have traveled all over the country.

273
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 3: Well, can you give me a few examples?

274
00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: Indiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Virginia, Tennessee, Illinois. That's a whole lot

275
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 2: of moving around, Yes, sir, sure is.

276
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 3: Please none of this sir stuff.

277
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:23,880
Speaker 2: As Harold Wayne leaned over the counter, asking questions one

278
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 2: by one to unravel the mystery of this smart mouthed

279
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:34,160
Speaker 2: young lady, a smile grew beneath that thick black mustache

280
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 2: of his. What music did she lay? What books did

281
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 2: she enjoy? Where was her family? With each inquiry she

282
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 2: opened further. The bus ride from Chicago had been a

283
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 2: long one. Robin hadn't had the funds for a flight

284
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 2: on that bus trip. She'd con at a plan to

285
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 2: make so much money that she'd never have to take

286
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 2: a bus again. People really thought this line of work

287
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 2: consisted simply of lying on one's back, a feat any

288
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 2: willing woman could accomplish. What they didn't know was that

289
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: the working girl was a psychologist, storyteller, actress, and living

290
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 2: work of art at the same down time. These men

291
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 2: don't just walk in the back with any old gal.

292
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 2: You got to examine them, understand them, find out what

293
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 2: tempts them. Then, having gathered the data, a working girl

294
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: must then become that thing he desires, if only for

295
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 2: an hour, if only for ten minutes, sorcery, magic, artistry,

296
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 2: obscure yourself and become a fantasy. Do not underestimate a

297
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 2: woman like me, thought Robin. The world would never pat

298
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 2: her on the back for her success, snape charming, and.

299
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 3: Yet sometimes she longed for a pat on the back.

300
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 3: She was, after all human.

301
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 2: A customer stumbled into the lobby and tripped over the

302
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:31,040
Speaker 2: leg of a barstool. Robin looked to Hwd. He met

303
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 2: her gaze. Don't worry about him. I'd rather you spend

304
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 2: the time talking right here with me. When she looked

305
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 2: concerned by that suggestion, her mind adding and subtracting the

306
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 2: sum she'd counted on that long bus ride here, Harold

307
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 2: Wayne reassured her, I'll.

308
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 3: Pay you for your time right own pocket. You simply

309
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 3: fascinate me.

310
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 6: Now, what we are trying to prove, and what we

311
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 6: expect to prove, is this that these operators, Now I

312
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 6: am going to call them operators, doubt it. Barker, Henderson,

313
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 6: and Boyd utilized inner state facilities such as airports, bus terminals,

314
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 6: and telephone to further their prostitution activities. In addition, they

315
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 6: actually traveled in the state themselves to promote and manage

316
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 6: the interest of these houses of prostitution.

317
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 2: The street lights sped by reflected in the lenses of

318
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 2: Buckeye's glasses.

319
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 3: Look for my girlfriend when you land, Tommy had told

320
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 3: her over the phone. Should be the pretty one in

321
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 3: the white tank waving out to car One.

322
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 2: Day, a short flight from Ohio to North Carolina, and

323
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 2: Buckeye was in the back seat of a sedan with

324
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 2: two strangers, crossing the state line into Virginia. The man

325
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 2: had promised to take care of her, but she was

326
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: a kid and scared what might be the consequences of

327
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 2: her impulsive recklessness. Why did she convince her friend to

328
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: make that call? She leaned her head against the window

329
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 2: and searched the evening landscape as they rattled over Smurf Bridge,

330
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 2: A small waterfall, a great mill hulking over the river,

331
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 2: broken windows black like missing teeth, read letters spelling home

332
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 2: into the night.

333
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 3: So this is a Standville, she.

334
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:05,360
Speaker 2: Said, You won't be working exactly in Danville.

335
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: Tommy hollered back from the front seat. Honey, turn the

336
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 3: music down.

337
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 2: Janet chided and lowered the volume on the skinnered you

338
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 2: won't be exactly in Danville. Tommy continued, quieter.

339
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 3: Now there's too much.

340
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 2: Potential trouble to mess with the city proper.

341
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,119
Speaker 3: You just gonna be like a mile or two into

342
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 3: the county.

343
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 2: See, the folks in charge of the county are a

344
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 2: whole lot friendlier.

345
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 3: Than them in the city.

346
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 2: But anyways, yeah, this is Danville.

347
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 3: This is kind of the big city around here.

348
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 2: Buckeye counted ten identical millhouses in a row and thought,

349
00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 2: this don't want.

350
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 3: Too much like the big city.

351
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 2: But okay, what was she doing here? Sometimes we make

352
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:09,920
Speaker 2: a decision from a distance, We make plans based upon

353
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 2: a terrain we cannot yet see. We decide, yes, I

354
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,360
Speaker 2: can do this thing, and we imagine in our hearts

355
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 2: a scenario we cannot predict with our minds. There will

356
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 2: be new opportunity and adventure on the other side of

357
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 2: this decision, we imagine. And then one day we find

358
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 2: ourselves on the actual other side of this decision, to

359
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 2: see instead a muddy river, a mill missing teeth, and

360
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 2: evil read letters burning home into the knife. Buckeye peeled

361
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:55,360
Speaker 2: her cheek off the window, straightened her spine. She'd faced

362
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: worser things than a missing toothed mill in her life.

363
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,919
Speaker 2: The hardship's been worth if not to harden her to

364
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 2: any challenge, to rub a callous on her spirit, strengthen

365
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 2: her against any trial.

366
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 3: Don't worry, Tommy told her, Oh, I'm not I'm not worried.

367
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,360
Speaker 3: You're trying to convince you were me. He laughed.

368
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 2: Janet swatted his arm. She looked over her shoulder at

369
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 2: Buckeye and smiled. It ain't bad at least, that's what

370
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 2: I hear. I'm about to start up to but at

371
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 2: another location than you.

372
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 7: Missus Barka.

373
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 6: Can you tell me how was your employment at the

374
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 6: Hillcrest Helston raged to your knowledge through.

375
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 8: My husband, then my boyfriend.

376
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 7: Okay, now when was this approximately?

377
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 9: It would be late fall of seventy two, approximately two

378
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 9: or three weeks after the health center was opened.

379
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 7: All right, what was nature of his operation when it started?

380
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 7: What were your instructions?

381
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,959
Speaker 9: I was instructed by mister Gord that we were owed

382
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 9: to give hand.

383
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 8: Relief, But the nature of that was really for his

384
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 8: own defense.

385
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 7: Why do you say that.

386
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 9: I was told that it was just supposed to be

387
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 9: strictly a massage parlor, right, But during the conversation he

388
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 9: winked and said that I was to give up half

389
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 9: of my money and I asked him why, and he

390
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 9: said that my have of the money went towards things

391
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 9: that needed to be bought for the health.

392
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 8: Center and for my own protection, and for a lawyer

393
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 8: in case it was to get busted.

394
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 9: I didn't understand that, because if we were supposed to be

395
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 9: doing something legal, why would need a lawyer.

396
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 7: When you first worked it, who was already a high

397
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 7: a prostitution.

398
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 9: I never gave any Messashias, Oh.

399
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 8: That would be a waste of my time.

400
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 2: You'll work in twelve hour shifts, twelve hours on, twelve

401
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 2: hours off, Aubrey explained as Janet unpacked her overnight bag

402
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 2: in a small room among the hallway of small rooms

403
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 2: in the back of the Hillcrest Health Center. In the lobby,

404
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 2: Herbert organized wads of cash into separate envelopes. When you're on,

405
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 2: Aubrey continued, you'll make yourself available to the gentleman who

406
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 2: entered the lounge. We are, of course open twenty four hours.

407
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 2: You'd be surprised at the strange time we.

408
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 3: Get callers, truck drivers. Of course they awake it all.

409
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 2: We got one regular who comes in at six thirty

410
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 2: am every Tuesday. Now, who else could say that Our

411
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: customers are very loyal. When you treat them right.

412
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 3: You just look pretty, just same as you do now.

413
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 2: Smile at the boys, make them feel at ease, and

414
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 2: you're gonna do just fine.

415
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 3: Janet had done just fine.

416
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 2: At least that was the impression she had gotten after

417
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: her first customer tricks, the girls called them.

418
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 3: In that small room.

419
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 2: Alone with that small man, she had moved her body

420
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 2: in ways she'd done with other men, men she loved,

421
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: or at least liked, underneath the bleachers at homecoming.

422
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 3: Or in the car drive in. But with the trick,

423
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 3: whom she.

424
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 2: Didn't love nor like, she found her body could move

425
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 2: just the same, as long as her mind was somewhere else,

426
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 2: somewhere other than this twin bed, in this dark room,

427
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 2: and this watt cinder block building on the side of

428
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 2: the highway, Picturing in her head the face of her beloved,

429
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 2: transposing him over every inch of this stranger.

430
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 3: Janet had been able to get the.

431
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 2: Job done quicker and with less distress than she thought possible.

432
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 2: Everyone deserves affection, she told herself.

433
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:22,840
Speaker 3: Everyone ought to feel good.

434
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 2: This was a job, just like any other job, merely

435
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 2: a meeting of needs. The client needed her touch, and

436
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 2: she needed his cash. If the trade was not legal,

437
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 2: it was nonetheless ethical. She spent longer in the bathroom

438
00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 2: washing the man off of her than she spent getting

439
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:43,920
Speaker 2: him on her in.

440
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 3: The first place. Yeah, she thought she could do this.

441
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 3: She'd been training for this all the days of her life.

442
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 2: When she'd finished with the first man, she handed half

443
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 2: of the money to Aubrey and he'd it into an envelope.

444
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 2: And then she did it again and again and again

445
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: for twelve hours straight.

446
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 3: And then.

447
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: She decided to make an egg sandwich. It was, after all,

448
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 2: breakfast time. Entering the kitchen, Janet came upon a melee

449
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: of young women, laughing as they moved around one another

450
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 2: in a concert of cooking.

451
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 3: Indeed, there were so.

452
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 2: Many girls in that small room that it was downright crowded,

453
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 2: a dozen bare feet dancing against feeling linoleum. Yet within

454
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 2: this undulating sea of ladies, cracking eggs and jokes sat

455
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 2: a middle aged man, round bellied and balding, his fists

456
00:33:53,240 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 2: clutching a drink and his eyes glazed. A cigarette balanced

457
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 2: between his fingers, the ash a mile long, Like a

458
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 2: man waking from a nightmare. He shocked his nodding head

459
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 2: up when one of the girls hollered out, Hey, Joe, how.

460
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 3: Did you say you liked your eggs done? Thanks for listening.
