"...would be found face down in a dark alley, bleeding out from a large-caliber exit wound..."

I do love your turn of phrase - conjures such a 1950's seedy town film feeling (LA Confidential leapt to mind). I could add several names to a list of individuals deserving this treatment.

That's the tone I was going for. The list of those one wishes were found thus is long indeed.

my immediate thought was "Touch of Evil." actually made in the fifties, black and white, Venice (at night) standing in for an unnamed "border town," motels in which nothing good can possibly happen....

Also "scam" but "scummy scam" is good.

Trying to find the several-years old article in the SD Union-Tribune about L'il Jimmy found either naked or mostly naked on a street in Pacific Beach, clearly having a breakdown of some sort (didn't find it but pretty sure it was PV guy), I did find this article. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/nation-world/story/2021-12-08/judge-appoints-special-master-in-project-veritas-raids-case

I have an award on Facebook I call the Martin Shkreli Memorial Galvanized Trash Can To the Face Award James O'Keefe is a lifetime achievement winner. I would almost rather he died obscure and penniless, raving about past glories, but your ending is rather poetic.

Another good script! I hope that he enjoys doing time....he deserves a bit of a rest..... Thanks TC for laying the narrative out so clearly. These punks are really despicable.....just like the whole crew on the USS Mar-a-Lago as it sails to its destiny. Feelin' good these days...but not complacent.
