Vokker called from Costa Rica 001 506 380-5785 and seemed surprised that I answered the phone. It was my line, the fax line.   He said he had called this number a few months back and left a message and Don had gone into fits that Vokker had called this number and had instructed him to never do that again.  Vokker said he was calling to let Don know that he had heard about Don putting a contract out on his head and that he was contacting the embassy so that if Don tried to re enter the country he would be arrested.  Vokker said that there are a lot of people who would jump at $1000.00 to kill a person.  I asked why he thought Don would want to kill him and he said he was holding one of Don’s cars as collateral for all the work he did for Don for which he was not repaid.

 

Vokker said that Don smuggled a male Ocelot with a microchip and that he has the number and witnesses that he had microchipped the cat himself to pass for a domestic cat that had been brought in supposedly with the same chip number.  The Margay, he said was missing two toes from her front left paw and he knew how it was done and where.  He claimed to have personally witnessed Don smuggling these cats on to the plane.  I asked how this was possible and he said all you have to do is slip a $50 in your passport and anything goes.

 

He claims to have copies of all of Don’s checks and receipts totaling some $500,000.00 that he said Don did not report as coming in to Costa Rica through customs.  Vokker said that he is the one who recommended that Don deposit it with the Helicopter Brothers and that he can verify how much they got from Don.  He said Don used to have him run ads in the Spanish paper down there looking for live in girls who must be young, slim and Tico and will send me a copy of his most recent ad from 6 weeks ago where Don started running them in English in the Tico Times so that he did not have to rely on Vokker.

 

I wonder who wrote them for Don?

 

He said that Don uses his private line for these ads 231-1785 but Vokker has copies of the message tapes where the girls have responded describing themselves and what they would do. He said that he has receipts from paying the escort services so that someone would be waiting for Don when he arrived.  He said that Don is known all over the neighborhood as the dirty old man who trades second hand baby clothes to young poor mothers who cannot afford to take care of their children and Don has offered several of them free rent in exchange for their sexual services.

 

One girl, Iva age 22 with an 18 month old child is divorcing her husband who is a grocery clerk because Don has promised to bring her and her child back to live the good life in the US. Don has promised her a year lease, marked paid, for her affection.  Another girl, a friend of Vokkers is 26 with a 6 year old son Don has made the same offer to, but she doesn’t like Don because he lies and sleeps around.

 

Later today I received a call from Mary Hooper, Vokker’s girlfriend.  (305) 871-9026.  She said Don was always very kind to her and always telling her that she was beautiful and that if she would leave Vokker he would take care of her forever.  She was in the room the day that Don was on the phone telling me that he was going to divorce me and take half of the cats to Costa Rica.  She heard him screaming about  how he would choke me financially and poison all of our cats just to get even with me for having the junk hauled out of the yard.  This was on his last trip before this one.

 

Mary and Vokker moved in with Don in October and she said immediately she noticed that Don’s entire reason for coming to Costa Rica was spent looking for young girls to have sex with him.  She said it didn’t matter if anything else got done, every day that he was there, his first and foremost focus was on what new girl he could get into bed with.  She said it is common for him to “interview” 5 or 6 women a day by running ads for what would appear to be a
