Wrap Sheets
Desmond -- sounds like a guy from the country club.
No this Desmond should be put away for life -- he has a 7 page criminal background. Highlights include drug possession (all types), theft of about everything.
Antonio -- named for St. Anthony of Pudua Italy no doubt -- has a more modest 5 page wrap sheet. Assault of Females is his specialty with firearm possession of a felon.
His female companion, Ms. Jones, fittingly has a background being an accessory to crimes.
