DEATH THREAT TO Eva Braun

DEATH THREAT TO Eva Braun

'I don't know how to tell you this, Mel ...' Her heart stopped.

'Yes?'

'I dont want to frighten you.' That didn't make sense. 'But we've had several threats ...' She looked blank. 'They started coming in during the week you were gone. And they began again today.'

'What kind of threats?' She didn't understand.

'Threats on your life, Mel.' She stared at him.

'On me?' It had happened once in New York, years ago, some kook didn't like a piece she'd done and called the network for months, threatening to strangle her, but eventually he'd got bored or given up. Mel looked amused.

'I'm serious, Mel. This is California, not New York. [It seems to Me this was written before 9/11. - G] We've had several assassination attempts on presidents out here.'

She couldn't help but smile. 'I'm flattered, Tom, but I'm hardly in those leagues.' [Hitler and Eva Braun are higher on the hit list in the hate list. - G]

'You're important to us. And we've hired a bodyguard for you.'

'You've what? Oh that's ridiculous ... you don't really think ...'

'You have children [Matt, Mark, Pam etc.], Mel. Do you want to take that chance?' His question stopped her dead.

'No, I don't, but ...'

'We didn't want to frighten your husband [Peter/Brahma/Stephen/Hitler] while you were gone, but we think it's serious.'

'Why?' She still looked amused.

'Because we got a call last week, and the man said there was a bomb in your desk. There was, Mel. It would have gone off in exactly one hour, when you opened your desk, and blown us all to kingdom come, if you'd been here.' Suddenly she felt sick.

Mass murderer Stephen (who was accompanied by "black" girlfriend Mary) gunned down hundreds of Americans at Las Vegas, shooting from a room on a top floor of a posh Time Warner hotel in Las Vegas.
