Paul Allen and Cocaine

X* related the following to me a few years back:
His girlfriends brother was beaten up, thrown down the gully in back of his house, and left for dead. Somehow he survived and was taken to the hospital. The doctors didn't know if he would live and both his parents came to see him. He did survive and recuperated for several months. He is security for Paul Allen. No one could believe Paul Allen kept him on full pay during his recovery. X told me it was a random beating.
I had my doubts about this being a random beating. I called Seattle Police Department narcotics and spoke with a detective. I related the above. He explained random beatings are rare and said the incident was probably drug related. He asked if X wanted to be an undercover informant against Paul Allen? I said I would ask him but believed there wouldn't be a chance in the world he would do this. I also expressed my concern about X being on cocaine. The detective was very compassionate and knowledgeable and gave me very sound advice regarding X.
I was so impressed with the detectives concern for X and help I wrote Chief Kerlikowske a letter praising the detective. The chief wrote me a nice letter back. He said: "I will share your letter with Sergeant ... as well as his supervisors... I will also ensure a copy of your letter is placed in his personnel file for reference when considering a promotion..." The chief thanked me for writing.
When I told X what the detective had said regarding the beating of his girlfriends brother X got upset. He said the detective didn't know what he was talking about and he had (X) just told me this story because he knew I would "get going over this incident." To prove how wrong the detective and me were he told me there was an ongoing feud between his girlfriends brother and a black kid who had raped his sister a couple years earlier. The beating was related to this.
Six months later when I asked X if anything was new regarding this incident he said his girlfriends brother was going to a police lineup to pick out the person who attacked him. When I asked him why he was going to do this when he knew who the person was I got only evasive answers. He was going to ask his girlfriend about this but when I would ask if he had talked to his girlfriend about this the answers were always evasive.
X months later did confess that his girlfriend used cocaine. He told me she would go home with different men when the bar would close and spend the night with them. X was unable to face the reality that his girlfriend was into prostitution to finance her cocaine habit. X could also not admit she was a serious cocaine addict-even to this day, the usual denial of drug users.
So how did all this end? The girl has never been through drug rehab. She is living in South America with a soccer star who can well afford to pay for her habit.
Everyday I live with the fear and uncertainty of wondering if X has overdosed from cocaine usage.
For months I tried to talk to the detective and give him the additional two stories . He would never answer his phone or return my calls as I requested on his voice mail. If story number three is correct an innocent man is probably spending years in prison so Paul Allen can be protected.
Obviously Paul Allen was never investigated for this and his involvement with the cocaine world. I know the detective was sincere and professional about wanting to investigate Paul Allen. I believe he was stopped by Chief Kerlikowske himself.
Remember cocaine overdose deaths in Seattle in the last year increased eighty percent.
I could write more but you can draw your own conclusions based on the facts above relating to cocaine, Paul Allen, the detective, and Chief Kerlikowske.

God forgive Seattle, God forgive Seattle!
