I asked him if he was alone and he said that his wife had just been awakened as well. I asked him to get her as I wanted to talk to them together. The two returned, both still in their pajamas, and I told them the news that their son had been killed in a car accident. They said they had just seen and talked with him a few hours earlier. I told them again that I was sure it was him. The young man’s father just stared at me in disbelief. His mother became hysterical and inconsolable. We encouraged the father to call a relative, which he did.
However they introduced us to a number of people and we were seen together so much that the drug dealers assumed we had been friends with them for a long time. That facade helped us infiltrate an otherwise tight group of vacationing beach traffickers. Weekend house parties were common and if we didn’t get invited, we’d invite ourselves. One night Cliff brought me along to one in the hope of meeting some new summer residents. We hadn’t been there long when a guy walked in and I could tell right away that Cliff was uncomfortable seeing him.
We spent most of our workdays either in bathing suits or shorts and a T-shirt. Jay looked like a body builder and Cliff was nicknamed “Magnum” in homage to his resemblance to Tom Selleck. The guys weren’t hard on the eyes, and most days it seemed I had to run interference to keep the bikini-clad ladies away from them long enough so we could get some work done. The three of us befriended two local young women who were instrumental in the success of our summer assignment. They had no idea we were cops, just that we were on vacation and wanted to get stoned and have a good time.
