After a quiet few months, the police are back upstairs. →[More:]
He works nights, doing some driving job or other in his Merc. He's not a chauffeur or a taxi driver, it's what Americans would call a town car service, I think. The type of driver who collects businessmen from the airport, that sort of thing. Although what he is doing all night I don't know. I suspect he's driving escort girls to their appointments. He usually leaves at about 9.30 each night, and comes home any time between 4am and 6am.
Anyway a couple of times a week he brings back some skanky crack whore. They're always in their late teens/early 20s, with that skinny desperate air of the junkie prostitute.
He left at about 6.30 this morning with the girl he'd brought back in the early hours, and about half an hour ago, I noticed a police car outside, talking to someone in the passenger seat of his car. It was the girl. It would appear they'd driven away and then for some reason she refused to get out of his car so he came back here with her and one of them called the police. She was talking to the police for a while, getting quite agitated, and then one of the officers came to Vic's door. How convenient that I was in that bathroom and could hear everything!
It turns out that he'd picked her up on his way home from work, as he does, and her story was that he'd taken £20 off her for drugs. I don't know what his story was but he was saying "normally with these things it's all up front but then this one turned and I wanted out of it".
Now I think what the girl was saying was true because I've heard this before from the women he's picked up, as have neighbours. He dumps them outside with no money to get home. There've been many arguments I've overheard where women are claiming he's stolen money from them.
The policeman said "well, as you've got a nice Mercedes and live in a nice house, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt" and they drove her off somewhere.
He was quite upfront with the police that picking up prostitutes is a regular thing for him.
It looks as if he's now trying to hide his car in the garage but I think it's too big to fit, they're small garages. I can only just fit my Ford Escort in mine. Huh. He managed it.
He is scum.
