“There will be twelve people in waiters’ uniforms. Those working for the caterers will be wearing white jackets. Our people, five of them, will be wearing red jackets. All the catering personnel, who are already en route, will arrive at the square in Ravello in their own vans and a small bus. They will be the first to arrive, in daylight, and after dark, they will walk down the narrow path from the square and enter the house through the rear door on command. All the food, wine, and utensils will have already been delivered to the kitchen, which is of a large and commercial nature. Two of these crates have been marked with a large red C. These have false bottoms and contain the weapons to be used by our five people—four men and one woman. They will also contain three Tasers. These will be used to disable and disarm the security personnel, probably two, who work on the lower floor here.” The image changed to the plan of the lower floor. “This room contains audio and video equipment connected to the many cameras around the house and property. At seven PM, as the guests have begun to arrive, two of our waiters in red jackets, armed with Tasers and pistols, will go to the security room, Tase the occupants, and immobilize them with plastic cuffs on their hands and feet, and they will also gag these people. Their pistols will be silenced. They may have to be fired, depending on the level of resistance. At the same time, our female officer will go to the lower level where four maids’ rooms are located. We believe that Hedy Kiesler may be held in one of these rooms, though we’ve had reports that she is no longer in the house. We have to find out. Three of them should be unoccupied, since their occupants will be upstairs, working. Our woman will be carrying a jimmy bar with which to force the doors, if locked.

“Having reached Hedy, our officer will remain in the room with her until the house has been secured, when another of our people will come for them and walk them to the elevator for extraction from the house. It is possible that Hedy has already left or been taken from the house to another location, in which case we will have another problem on our hands. If so, the security people and staff of the house will be aggressively interrogated as to Hedy’s whereabouts.

“All our inside people, including the musicians, will be equipped with earpieces that contain two-way radios. Commands will be given by these means, and people who have no critical information for everyone else should remain silent.
