Saying "we saw you go under the fence," just doesn't have the same power as "we know what you're doing, and we can stop it." For all we know, they were hoping she would die out there.

But if they have a witness or a camera showing her going under the fence, why bother with the pretense of trying to catch her outside?<br /><br />I have no clue how the Peacekeepers can possibly work. I don't think they can be recruited from the Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09819861295117048917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495292846227578645.post-35030021827841088662010-08-10T22:19:37.420-04:002010-08-10T22:19:37.420-04:00Aha!

Do we think Darius was recruited from the Capitol?
