Oh, the little girl. That was a bad one. We tried to have one of our
members, Johnny, infiltrate the group. Well, as an initiation, they gave
Johnny a gun, similar to a 9mm (don't remember which one) and told him to
shoot the girl. Johnny figures that it's just a test, so he goes over to
the girl, pulls the trigger, nothing happens... He smiles,figures he was
right about it being just a test and pulls the trigger a couple more times.
Bang, Bang. Two bullets into the poor girl. I was listening over a head
phone, and I was shocked, as was Johnny. He'd forgotten to chamber the
first round, that's why it hadn't fired.

That was probably our biggest frag up ever, and was definately the last
time we ever took a wetwork job...

Ouch...
