My art for the @geraltjaskierbang for @dat-carovieh ‘s cute fanfiction To know you in all the ways that count !!!

At Hetty’s first check-in, Nell says she spoke with the DMV, IRS, and Social Security. Pretty sure at least the last two would have been pretty aware the guy had been dead for 12 years.

Later, Nell comes back telling Hetty that Deeks told them he shot GJB when he was 11. But she doesn’t seem to have put two and two fully together that Brandel was Deeks’s dad). Wouldn’t something like the fact he was shot have been in his incarceration record? Wouldn’t there be documents from/about the arrest? Like even if Deeks’s name wasn’t mentioned (in whichever form it might be), I’m assuming it would have mentioned he was shot at the time of arrest, and even if just saying ‘by the victim’. If this isn’t in the file, why? Was it buried for other purposes? What purposes might those be? 

At the end, Hetty comes to deliver the news Brandel is dead as of 1998. Says he was paroled after he was released. Questions I don’t know the answer to: how long he would actually be paroled? Does it go til whatever the end of the initial sentence was? Is there a point where they stop being visited by parole officers? But if he served 5 years of his 7 year sentence, 1998 would be right toward the end of that time frame. If he was still paroled, again, I feel that would have been pretty obvious in the search, so it was probably after?

Where did Nell find out this last little bit of information that she didn’t find before? Did it pop up randomly someplace she’d already searched? Was he out of the country? Is someone monitoring his info and when they saw someone went poking they doled out data they wanted to be/were okay with being found?

And then the follow up question to those would be: WHY?! Did he fake his death to live a new life? Is he secretly CIA and they’ve got him doing secret covert work so they “killed” him and gave him a new identity? Did he narc on his cell mate and get granted witness protection?
