Like most modern police deparments, the Portland Police Bureau maintains a series of databases on persons of interest, including criminal complainants. After the partial victory of August 2009, I began to wonder at Carter’s mental competence and veracity more than before and asked a private investigator to check PPB records to find out how often she had contacted the police about things, given her previous sworn testimony about having contacted the police in 1999 when I’d returned her couch and some other online examples of her having claimed to be in contact with the police about supposed dangers. Did she call the police all the time or was I special? To my great astonishment, neither of those alleged interactions were in the basic record. Had she lied about the calls or had PPB just not recorded them? It was an odd development, to be sure. What else should I look at again?
