>>>>>[I got your okay for looking into things, and in the betterment of
furthering our working relationship, I've got the following...nothing to hard
mind you, no straining required for much of this...I'm gonna comment on this
stuff and areas I would like to work with. Let me know what you think...

+++++insert file (Ohio Moritorium Records Division)

> Andrew Jackson Kryzdanovich was born in 2026 in Cincinnatti, the child
> of a police officer and a schoolteacher. His sister Betsy was born three
> years later.

[Binder] - I have yet to find out anything about his communication level with
his sister.

+++++insert file (Central Cincinnati Archive's Division; includes
documentation from psychological profiles performed by appropriate
individuals)

> His father was killed in the line of duty in 2041, when Kryzdanovich was
> fifteen: shot during a firefight with a group of drunken armed robbers,
> died two days later without regaining consciousness. This confirmed
> young Andrew's decision to become a police officer himself: his mother
> was proud, and afraid.
> Kryzdanovich followed another tradition: he proposed to his high-school
> girlfriend at the Prom, and they were married right after he graduated
> as a qualified police officer with CPD Incorporated.

[Binder] - I still find this a bit premature ... especially in light of what
happens later ...

> For several years, things were good: he was respected by his colleagues
> and trusted by the citizens he worked among. Several years of good work
> got him noticed and promoted, to become a detective in the Homicide
> division: with a daughter (Jennifer) just born, the salary increase was
> most welcome. Things seemed good.

[Binder] - Always in the begining, eh guy?

> Then his wife divorced him, citing "a casual contempt for normal family
> life", "my client's perpetual fear of her heavily-armed husband and his
> propensity for violence" and the fact that he was a "borderline
> alcoholic exulting in violence".

[Binder] - Okay, it is at this point in Marlowe's timeline that something
seems eschew (er strange, sorry). The woman must not have been able to handle
the stress of a 'cop marriage' really well, because he has no mention of
alcohol problems in his life, and they appear to have started sometime in
here.

> He lost his daughter, and his wife got (and sold) the house.
> Kryzdanovich found himself alone, living in a small three-room
> apartment, and while he was officially permitted to see his daughter
> every other weekend, his wife and daughter left to live in Ares HQ in
> Detroit, on corporate turf where Kryzdanovich was unable to go. He
> hasn't seen either of them since.

[Binder] - I find it interesting that he couldn't obtain visibility rites to
his daughter on Ares turf...either his lawyer was stupid or he was, because
Ares would probably have preferred one their "extended charges" on their turf
rather than off under these circumstances.

> Kryzdanovich threw himself into his work, fighting a growing alcohol
> problem, until he became embroiled in the murder of the junior Senator's
> daughter.

[Binder] -Yep, he definitely started to get 'developmental anxiety' here
somewhere.

> She was no angel, but for some reason Kryzdanovich went off the rails on
> this case: ignoring warnings that his conduct was unacceptable, he was
> eventually suspended, and then given early retirement due to "ill-
> health". As if he was threatened, then bought off?

[Binder] - My source was speculating here, but that isn't unthought of
happening. Why he got himself suspended is something of a mystery yet, the
exact details that is.

+++++inser personal notes

[Binder] - The guy pulled a miraculous one IMO. He went straight into PI work
in Seattle, complete with a license. You ready for this, he still has his
police issued firearm from Cinci, and the license to do such. There is
currently no record of it being used being a practice range however. He
didn't get a pension when he was suspended of any kind, and the word I have
been given is rife with cover-up and subtle scandals here and there. I know
he's been getting paid for the work he's been doing, and a couple of rumors of
him skirting the shadows of Seattle have sprung up. But to be honest, if he's
gonna be a survivable PI in Seattle, then he's gonna have to get near 'em
sometime.

Interesting fun-factoid...he's recently upgraded from a 3220ZX to a Chevy
Cobra, new model I think. Nice wheels, though the transmission is still a
chevy underneath the hood. He used to have his offices in Auburn, but they've
moved. Still working on where, but hell, he's probably in the canary pages
(which admittadly, I haven't looked there yet).

+++++ end file insertion

I hope that helps, but admittedly, I haven't paid him an astral visit yet.
I guess I could go jogging in the morning...]<<<<<
