Pauley, Vance

Appeared in Kindred in Death (c. June 2060, Sunday - Saturday)

Personal Information[]

Description[]

  • According to Mimi Pauley, there was something scary in his eyes; something mean, just not right in them.[1]

Personality[]

  • He was the manipulator, who liked the flash; quick and greedy. He was running the show with “Irene” doing the work.[2]

History[]

  • According to Vinnie, he did what he wanted, took what he wanted, hurt who he wanted. He always did, even when they were kids. Vance took off - left home - when he was sixteen.[1]
  • Vinnie didn’t know if Irene/Inga had run away from his brother, or if they planned it all together, to dupe him, to use him so she’d have a safe place to stay while she was nesting/pregnant.[3]
    • Irene/Inga left when when Darrin was a couple of months old. She took whatever wasn’t nailed down in his place, his car, cleaned out his savings, and even the little account Vinnie started for Darrin. All that was left was a video cube of Vance, laughing, telling Vince thanks for filling in for him. Vance had been arrested almost a year before, for fraud, or something.[3]

Criminal History[]

  • He had trouble starting at nine; truancy, theft, destruction of private property, cyber bullying, hacking, assault, and battery. He was twelve on the first assault.[4]
  • It was the ID fraud that had him in prison during the Inga period. He had a mile-long sheet from childhood to the age of twenty-one, then nothing.[5]
  • He was a con artist, an operator.[6]
  • Aliases
    • Victor Patterson[7]
      • After “Irene” was arrested, lack of evidence against him, and the woman’s confession, made it impossible to hold and charge him.[7] He claimed they were having some family difficulties as his wife had begun to prostitute herself to finance a growing drug problem. He was alibied for the time of her murder when he knocked on a neighbor’s door.[8]
      • Jonah MacMasters said Patterson was wrong but the apartment was clean;[9] he cooperated fully, on the surface, and played the innocent party.[10]
      • Eve said that when he got in over his head with the Stallions, he offered “Irene”/Illya, as she was secondary after his own ass.[11]
    • Val Pruit[12]

Homicide Information[]

  • He was charged with two counts of conspiracy to murder, one count of conspiracy to attempted murder, and ID fraud.[13]
  • Victims
  • In his home, they found the data he accumulated on Deena, Karlene, Charity Mimoto, and Elysse Wagman; they also found illegals.[14]
  • He offered Eve a five million-dollar cash bribe to tamper with the evidence so he could get off; she added attempting to bribe a police officer to the charges.[15]

Interesting Facts[]

  • Lieutenant Pulliti said Vance had some flash; and expensive wrist unit, shoes, and upmarket electronics. He was working in e-repair, a consulting sort of deal.[16]
  • Darrin said he and his father had always been a team; they worked together.[17]
    • Eve told Darrin that Vance set him up, like he set up his mother, like he set up Vinnie.[18] Vance made his son and would let him fry to save himself.[19]
    • When Eve arrested him, Vance said that though he tried to take care of him, he was afraid his son might have done something horrible.[19] He had Charity’s hit marked on his datebook like a dentist appointment.[20]
  • He said Darrin was a data analyst with Biodent.[20]
  • When he asked for a break, for showing remorse, Eve said the only break he’d get from her was her recommendation that he be placed in a cage in another sector of Omega, so he never had further contact with his son.[21]
  • He wanted a trial. He refused an offer of twenty-five years for each conspiracy count, consequentially, with added time on top of fraud and bribery. Cher Reo said he was gambling and was going to lose.[22]
