[b]car accident went to jail[/b]
by dw1987
i rented a car from adventure rent a car adventuererrentcar. com in puerto plata airport the agent there is jason maloon. owner i guess is gipsy harold a woman. i got good airfare rate so upgraded to honda suv because last two trips i rented same car and ac didn't work and windshield wiper on drivers side was worn and spray did not work so you drive down road at night with smeared glass. i can't take the heat so i need working ac. i get there no problems pay in cash get receipt for cash because i didn't get one last time. i rent from gypsy because a friend of mine james recommended them after car problems.
nice truck honda element black looked customized even weyland said nice truck. anyway me and my wingman were driving on malecon in pop heading towards lasirena we had just ate there and i had a coke which is unusual for me but its really hot there that friday. two girls were at a beach bar waiting for us but i didn't see them i was driving don't need extra distractions. i need to turn around so cars coming i am waiting to clear i am right on yellow line waiting for oncoming traffic noone on my right no one on the road that direction. road clears turn left and smash a motoconcho hits the truck. my "friend" screams like a 10 year old school girl. i immediately get out of truck to check on victims they got hit pretty hard. i thought they were dead the girls head had a lump but no major blood anywhere. i was very concerned for them even though they were speeding like hell and passed me on wrong side of road they were hurt. a crowd soon gathered some asked me what happened i calmly explained. i looked for my "friend" and he is nowhere to be found no where. a bystander called police with cell phone and jason maloon the representative of adventure rental car. i ask numerous people where is my "friend" noone knows. believe me i looked hard i had nothing else to do but i did not leave scene of accident. the victims dissapeared also along with the victims motorcycle. one guy says my "friend" went to hospital with victims. i thought that was quite humble of him. police show up 45 minutes after accident so its 1:30 pm or so. my "friend " reappears he looks like he was crying and scared. get into car to go to police station near harbor while getting in car jason from adventure finally shows up. on way to police station my "friend" explains he don't like blood that is why he left. i knew better he ran away like a scared little school girl after he screamed. get to station wait there jason says i take care of you i will take care everything. victims family shows up they look a little mad but relize i am concerned too. i don't talk much and remain calm. the family understands it was accident i certainly didn't see them on my left large blind spot in that suv. jason says don'why worry i am here i will take care of you whole thing will be couple hundred dollars. he says don't tell anyone but you have 8000 pesos i will pay police chief and you will be ok. i don't have that much on me so i ask my "friend" for 1000 pesos more. we wait for long time 2 hours for paperwork and such so i think be all over after paying money. my "friend" starts whining like a little girl "i want to go to herman's for a chica i don't see why i should be stuck waiting for you its like when people are dying in hospital i am not going to spend a month next to their bed what do i have to do with this your fault your fault! then he says yea i saw that motorcyle on your left but don't worry i won't say anything " like he is doing me some kind of favor? i wanted to * slap him. he is a i already told police what happened. i say i need you here i do not know how this is going to turn out i may get throw in jail and you will be only one on planet who knows where i am. he says" no no jason is good guy he will take care of you you don't need me. ain't my fault ain't my fault you should have seen him you were driving. i paid for rental car all gas and his hotel room and he is my wingman "friend' you would think the ungrateful fucker would wait for me after running off leaving me for lynch mob and after all you never ever leave your wingman ever in a vulnerable place. i finally say ok cause i think i am ready to kick his ass anyway. i asked jason is "friend" use car and go to hotel for passport and credit card. i already gave him my room key digital camera i tell him get my stuff come back and you can go. he leaves jason says oh have to go to judge for trial right now going to take more money for hospital. i call my "friend" on telephone empty my hotel room of all my belongings in case they decide take my things and get my money, debit card and passport but don't give to anyone for any reason he said ok.
i get to the other police station down by park and get into station and meet adventure's attorney respresenting me. the deductable is 3000 us deductable but i think he should get paid by them but quite frankly i am getting bad feeling about this just trying to think ahead of them. attorney said "no problem" i am respresenting you i am for you.
the entrance to police station is where is desk 3 cops one cop instructs me step behind door it is a prison cell with women in there. i ask attorney what is going on? he say no problem its just for minute. cop points at shoes and argue swith me about something attorney says take off shoe laces. ding ding ding light goes off in my head i am going to jail! never been jail before and that is unusual for my area and michigan child support domestic violence laws. i call my "friend" and said listen i am going to jail phone gets quiet i say are you there? you joking? no. i am going to jail. at this time i am thinking thanks for leaving me assole. i tell him" my life is in your hands" who is going to have your phone jason the adventure rental agent with my money 100 us dollars some pesos and i count it. i hear some screaming as taking shoe laces and look over and see 20 men most all naked with their penisis exposed hollering gringo gringo. i almost flicked them off and asked if they wanted to fight but didn't. 10 seconds later i am in cell with them. honestly wasn't scared but was hot as hell don't know temperature but hottest ever been in my life lets just give it 100 degrees and humidity to match even dominicans didn't have clothes on and were panting. in i go i figure i can knock out 2 or 3 of them but not 20 so better stay calm. into cell all the way to back its body to body they swarm to me the uglier looking ones tried to intimidate me said don't be scared i wasn't scared the heat was fucking unbearable. i told them not scared just hot two 3 them put hands on my cargo shorts and fondle my pockets a little ask have money i said no police robb me. kept hands to themselves then ask why i am in jail i respond no idea. i tell them soy innocente they all say almost in sequence tambien. i am innocent they say me too and laugh. end of intimidation try then start asking me where i am from i say canada just to lie a little. heat is unbearable hooldlem they are they don't deserve those conditions.
the cell is 10 x 10 i couldn't count blocks because this is too old for that it is also 10 feet high with small barred window 8 feet up or so. one wall for bath but its a plastic pail to [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord134][CodeWord134][/url] in and then you dump it in a two inch hole wick is a toilet that is covers with someones clothes to keep stink out must be. toilet in like concrete 5 gallon bucket but to only has 2 inch hole i guess it goes down to hole in ground no water of course. no water in cell whatsover and i already needed something drink. i try to get message to rental car guy i can't take this heat they don't care.
30 minutes pass by i go one side of cell to other trying to find coolest place but quite frankly its body to body. near the jail cell door is best temperature but is still unbearable all guys lay or sit naked aginst floor and wall try stay cool. i get stand by door for a while but one guy wants his place back. another 30 minutes or so goes by they want to talk to me. jason the adventure respresentative with great big smiles ask me if i am rich? i say no and they are trying to c. i say no tengo muchas dinero and keep really sad face. they say hospital bills and such will be 5000 dollars the girl lived had leg broke in two places and pinned. i still say don't have. i get talk to prosecutor a lite skinned dominican can't say she was very friendly. she says need 5000 dollars or have to sit in jail till trial in 6 months. i ask why insurance don't pay is 300 deductable but says don't cover medical bills. ask is i have family to send money i say i don't which is true nothing. i call billy i am not sure at this point i said i am in jail he says what for acccident someone killed no. i said billy you know someone to get me out of here you have 3 police on cell he says not much i can do for you i don't have any money or know anyone but send you my lawyer i said no adventure has one for me. (big mistake) i ask billy doesn't alberto owner of field of dreams know head of police or something the one he just put up there he said no no. i said i made need you call alberto for me may need money i said have money in debit card but hard to do when i am in jail. billy said no problem lasirena has bank open till 8 he said got money out on credit card there before. i say ok but you call alberto just in case i can't take this heat 120 degrees with 20 naked hoodlems. cell phone ended told prosecutor what if few hundred dollars let me out get difference later. nope she is resposible for family medical bills. back to jail cell i go. i told jason adventure agent to give directions to my "friend' to get there. i also told them might be possible to get money but have to be out of jail.
my friend arrives with my passport anddebit card they agree to take me to lasirena. two police officers get into car with me and my friend. i managed to think ahead of time not to give them access to my passport or debit card room. good thing they didn't have my room key they would have had field day with my stuff. get to lasirena all banks are closed i call billy i need alberto he says you call him. i say shit don't even know him never talked to him before. he texted me albertos number and i needed phone from attorney to call alberto jason says how you know him? i don't only a friends friend but he is only one i know come up with 5500 cash at 730pm. alberto calls me hello, i am xxxxxx he don't me either but billy worked the other end. alberto was polite and blunt right to point just like me. i need loan get out i can't take the heat i will be dead. alberto said see what he can do. price went up in 5 minutes jason knows alberto see whats going on? i tell alberto 5500 and nothing more he agrees. phone call comes in its alberto check is at cabana of his and prosecutor agrees to his check. so i get 5500 dollars from guy never met before and i think i am free. my friend is going on and on about how i need th "grease the palms" of the rental car guy. i am thinking to myself just shut the fuck up. i go back directly to jail manage to get debit card to friend before get back into cell and my passport at least i can think ahead of them a little. into jail cell i go no notice of how long i am going in nothing. half hour passes or so they holler i get out prosecutor says i am free i holler at my friend to come and look at this jail cell and look what this is all about fuck no i think he peed his pants. i am waiting for some kind of papers to be signed. i walk outside prosecutor woman who was none to friendly says i am free to leave country. i ask her couple questions about do i get some paperwork? i don't need to get arrested on arrival without a appparent releases from familly of accident victim. i know at least alberto has a check stub. prosecutor is a little petite woman 85 90 lbs jason from adventure is 5 foot 9 i guess 215 lbs maybe hell i don't know but isn't intimidating for me but i know he is on steroids. the woman prosecutor says free to go home. my attorney and jason from adventure say final papers from family need to get signed tomarrow need 1400 dollars more. as the prosecutor is speaking jason is 2 feet away from her over my shoulder i spent alot of money i need reciept for something. turn back around prosecutor is gone its 9m it late she isn't very nice to begin with. get across sidewalk to get back home and attorney and jason say need 400 dollars for prosectutor to pay i say no tengo i don't have. jason and attorney for adventure are talking my "friend pulls out my big wadd of cash and flashes it around like he just found it on sidewalk. the eyes of jason and attorney got big i almost knocked him on his ass right then i told him back in pocket. had to give them 400 dollars to prosecutor before i could go. i don't know who had my cell phone. attorney leaft with my 400 dollars i get into jasons suv i look through my stuff 100 dollars is missing from money i gave jason thieving bastard i gave it to him directly. my friend is saying on oand on i need to grease the palms of jason for doing suck a good job. thanks for being director of gifts assole i am thinking. get in car and cell phone not in bag i forgot to mention jason and attorney for adventure tried taking my passport before i left jail didn't have hands on it once i kept giving back to my friend to keep. the other attorney had my phone by plan i think. on way back to sosua finally got my phone i wasn't leaving without it.
on way back sosua jason tells me better not leave country he has friend in new york who is a cop and he will 'hurt me'. if i would have had enough water in me i would have peed my pants! don't know me very well i said. he said better not leave country till i get my money. i said if i want to leave i will get on spirit flight at 3 am and be gone. remember tomarrow supposed to meet family and get my "release papers" next day i need to outthink what is going on but find it difficult but i need to leave stuff with friend. next morning jason is going to give me ride to puerto plata for final 'paperwork' i want to get my friend don to drive me so they don't hold me "hostage' again. jason picks me up says bring 'everything' i say what for only need the money. i only bring passport i smell something fishy. get to puerto plata and only drive around and around i call billy he says need to settle the car with gypsy. i ask what i am waiting for he says don't want me to meet with family they are mad. weren't mad yesterday. i need my papers. they say need copy of passport i say go up to billys i can get copy. attorney takes my passport (big mistake) they go into colmida across from billy's andget a copy. they call me into there say its 5000 dollars more. i say no they start laughing. only 1000 they say. i give money to attorney paperwork is getting signed now had it 10 minutes. get into suv with jason and jason goes back into colmida real quick ding ding ding i turn around it truck the go into room together split my money. i asked when paperwork oh later. we need go to airport pay for car damage. i get to airport he says have credit card with you? nope! i knew what he was going to do i said i must have lost it i lied it was in room with friend. i said you have my credit card on hold in there need reciept. then i told him i need to call gypsy and get some answers i spent alot of money and got nothing not a receipt for anything i want some answers. jason through a complete fit. i said need talk gypsy account for what 7500 dollars before i pay for damage. he calls her first and tries to blame billy for the whole thing i say no is alot of money and i want answers. gypsy calls me jason is right next to me si i can't tell her what i just saw 10 minutes before hes holding me hostage and quite frankly. i just want tell gypsy i think i need credit for car didn't have never considered paying for attorney also. she says knows one friends i say me too know him very well we will settle up on monday when i leave so lets count 8000 pesos first jason bribe 100 dollars he stole out of my belongings and 400 dollars and 1000 dollars he just got and i still have no papers or reciepts. i get ride back to hotel jason says pick me up monday at noon. i get to room to get belongings from "friend" and get my things alot of drama last couple days so things are tense i get my stuff i have yet to tell him what i think of him. his phone rings its jason says need pick me up early to go to see alberto and pay loan i tell him none your fucking buisness hang up phone. i forgot to mention my "friend" threw a sissy fit when he handed me phone for me. i managed to figure out i never am getting any paperwork jason extorted the 2000 dollars from me and its time for him to pay. i bought other ticket cost 400 dollars and left through santiago this morning. why when it was only 600 dollars to settle? i needed to teach jason lesson. one my friends actually called owner to question jason about the nearly 8k and jason says i was drunk that it why. never had beer all day. they never even checked i had a coke 10 minutes before. jason is already lying back to gypsy but its not going to work i am still pissed jason extorted 2000 dollars from me and i needed to teach him lesson on rental and unfortuneately get gypsy in middle.
