“Not entirely. I heard some cool books on tape.” Tom shrugged. “I didn’t see either Holt or the girl go in or out of the place. I left at one-fifteen.”

“We don’t have any suspects at the local level except the Preservers of Ethnic Integrity,” Wanda said. “But there are lots of fringe groups in the outer areas…in the mountains and canyons.”

Martinez said, “Speaking of mountains and fugitives, remember Ricky Moke?”

“The friend of Darrell Holt’s?” Decker asked.

“Yeah, him. The FBI has a file on Ricky Moke. But not for bombing.”

“What?”

“Computer hacking. He’s a mystery. The Feds have almost nothing on him.”

“What do they have?”

“There was a guy who used the screen name Ricky Moke whom the feds caught hacking into Lunar Systems Inc. from a location near Frisco. When the feds went to check it out, the port belonged to a grocery store that had no awareness of the crime. Someone had wired the port to a condemned building. No one knows who this Moke guy really is.”

“No picture?”

“Nothing.”

“So we don’t even know if Moke is a real person or not.”

“Darrell Holt claims to know him,” Webster said. “I could ask him for a description.”

“We could do that for the sake of completion. But it’s irrelevant if Moke isn’t tied to any hate crimes.”

Martinez said, “Personally, I think Moke’s a dead end as far as the vandalism is concerned.”

Decker said, “So forget about Moke. Concentrate on the hate groups we have. Lord knows there’s enough of them.”

“If y’all want to take this hate thing to the next level, we need to go regional,” Webster said. “That could take a while. Is this a good use of our time, especially since Ernesto has admitted to doing the vandalism?”

“Ordinarily, I’d say it would play very well with local politics. Showing that the police have zero tolerance for racism, especially after what happened with Buford Furrow at the Jewish Center. On a personal level, I want to take these bastards out. But…” Decker sighed. “But we can’t do much with Ernesto because he’s a minor and the deal’s gone down.”

Martinez said, “Where does an upper-class kid like Ernesto get such graphic pictures? Off the Internet?”

“Maybe,” Decker said.

“So maybe someone should check out what’s available out there…on the Web sites.”

“That’s a good idea,” Decker said.

“I can do that in my spare time,” Webster said. “As long as we make sure that the powers know what’s going on. I don’t want the feds at my doorstep, demanding that I download my computer.”

“I’ll clear it for you,” Decker said.

“I’ll do it, too, if you want,” Wanda said.
