THE 2002 SAGA OF ED HICKS

(originally posted December 2004 - Hicks spent one year of a 5 year/4 suspended sentence in jail in Virginia, is currently living in California, was fired from the Federal job he had and is BACK ONLINE TROLLING using the names "Charles Hicks" or "Charles Greene")

Well the next thing ya' know, Ed's livin' in his van,
still running round with women, tellin' all the lies he can.
He's says Californey is the place he wants to be
but he has to use a public gym for a place to shower & pee.

OUR TAX DOLLARS HARD AT WORK
HAS ANYONE NOTICED OLE' ED SENDING & RECIEVING EMAIL AT HIS FEDERAL JOB WORK EMAIL? ISN'T THAT AGAINST THE LAW??

PLEASE NOTE THE DATES & TIMES OF EACH OF THESE EMAILS!

Thanks for telling me you will be traveling. I'll not worry if I don't hear from you until you get back. (Guess you need to put some time in with the wife, the other women, the computer & all the women we STILL don't know about!)

All is well here. I am fine, lonely for you but fine..

*Terri*'s birthday is tomorrow. She will be (24). She's come down this weekend and we will celebrate.

The weather here is cold in the morning and warm around noon.

This is our Summer as you know. Good golf weather. (smile)

Good to hear the kids are doing well.

I am heading out to see who can do what and when at about 7:45. I will call a front end shop to see if I can get in first thing this AM. Hopefully they can straighten the car out enough so I can get home early............ Here's hoping...... Smile. (GAG there it is AGAIN!!)

I will keep you updated so you will know when I anticipate getting there........

My ear is draining a lot........... The DR. put a wick in it to help get the medication down in my ear. I guess that also allows the junk to come out as well. I will fill the prescription when I get up there this evening or tomorrow morning..... Or have the kids take it............

Hopefully you are feeling better today.......... We leave next week and I plan to be in better shape than I am now. Smile.

I drive as much as I work. Not good........ I know there is nothing I can do about it right now, I just need you to understand I need some down time as well. (So many women, so little time!)

Oh, what did XXX say about that woman DR. she went to see? Did she like her or did not say much about it? Let me know, okay.

Maybe we should make time this weekend to go over to the Rec Center and check it out. Do we know what the annual dues are? Maybe when my ear gets better we can go over and swim or do other things there............ Is is just for kids? (because once you bust me I am going to be showering there & living in my van!)

Okay, a lot of questions to answer. I don't like doing that. (Can we tatoo that on your head, Ed?)

I am hungry. I think I will go to the Grease Pit today and get some lunch.......... (Cafeteria inside the building) (wow! no trolling OUTSIDE?)

Hi Honey, I got in later than normal today since I had to depend on someone else to pick me up. I have a stack of email and other things to do.

Nice to hear the Windsurfing stuff arrived............ Where in the world did you put the board and other stuff........ ?

I am glad the kids are finding things to do. They need outside things, especially Eddie. If that gets him off his butt and doing something we will have won this battle. (How about you getting off your butt, getting divorces and paying your debts?)

The car was something else. We can maybe get some time to test drive one......... It doesn't look like this weekend will do it. That will do in my Saturday........ Sunday will only have a half day since I need to get to Emporia at a decent hour. I felt so much better not making that drive early Monday morning. I never recover all week from that.

Hope the Gov't gets the budget straight so the hiring will begin in earnest........

I had better get back to the real business. (REAL business?) I will call later.

Damn. If I would hit the lottery I would surely buy the M45. What a nice vehicle. Sporty, smaller but with all the goodies... (and I would be able to ditch the online playing and split the country for new hunting somewhere else!)

Oh well, out of my range until the kids get out of school. List on the one I saw today was $45K. they said they would let it go for $41K. Green with white interior............... Wow...........

Okay, back to normal..................

Just wanted touch base with you. Hope your commute went well.

That is great. I wish I could commit right now but you are right. Changing jobs would limit my ability to take a vacation........

If I can get out of here prior to Xmas, I should be able to (even with changing jobs) get some time off..... Nothing in the Gov't is that critical......... Smile.

One more thing *Terri* has plans to sent me to Hawaii for my 50th birthday/Christmas present in April.

She asked me if you wanted to come along before she makes the reservations.

I told her you are changing jobs shortly and wasn't sure if you could committee at this time.

The offered is out there to you from her.

We both appreciate you for the help/support you gave her when she was in College and now she wants to treat us both. I'm in tears at this point. She's a good kid.

Subject: RE: How are you today...............

Hi Babe,
I know you won't read this before I'll see you again but I'd like to talk to you and sending e-mail helps alleviate some of that need. So even though this probably won't be new info when you read it, you don't know any of this stuff right now. (Yeah in emails & chat Ed REALLY shines!!)

I had my interview with the Strategic Planning folks. It seemed to go well though I'm their first interview and it sounded like it would take a few weeks before they get around to interviewing all of the candidates. There aren't too many of us but they've spread the interviews out. I'd much rather be the final candidate so I'd know much sooner what the outcome is. The position sounded even better after I finished talking to the dept than when I read the description. Of course, they all wanted to know why I'd want a job so much lower than my current position. I was as honest and straight-forward as I could be; I told them that I was under-utilized in my current position and that I'm looking for an opportunity to apply my talent and experience in a meaningful way. As I said, I think things went well and I'm very hopeful that I'm right. I enjoyed the atmosphere in the office and really liked the people I spoke with. Now we'll have to see if HR will meet halfway.

So, did Sears have a good price on tires? I usually go to Costco to get my tires; the prices there are generally better than anywhere else. Glad Lee's worked out for you. Hope they did a good job.

Well, it's getting late and I certainly have no reason to stay here until 6 pm on a Friday but at least I feel like I've talked to you. I miss you, too, when we're not together. It seems that we get a day or two together and then something comes up or the weekend happens. Our time together is fragmented and disjoint things just start getting comfortable then we're interrupted. (Ed's got other women to deal with Lorraine - come on, he's just one man!!) I don't have any solutions for that phenomenon and I suppose it's worse for you than me (at least my clothes are all in one place. . .) but I'm finding more often that I want to talk with you, share my day or ideas, yet you won't be around for a while. (Where will you be EXACTLY Ed?) Please don't misunderstand me--I'm not complaining, I'm just talking. I'm just telling you something about myself and you get to do with it what you will. You'll know when I'm complaining because with a complaint comes a request for change (which you can also choose to do with as you see fit.) (Good 'cause Eddie ain't changin' - except his underwear for his next date!! and how DARE you ask him to commit!!)

I truly hope you're feeling better soon. I have't had an earache in years but I still remember how much they hurt.

I'll call you this weekend and let you know about getting together with XXX and XXX.

Love you,
*Lori*

(from December, 2005 - we are re-running this story because Hicks is OUT OF JAIL and may be doing the same thing. BTW, Hicks was officially fired from his job shortly before his release)

but was still married to Julie (wife #6)

Sounds like you have important plans for the weekend……Good Deal. Be safe and be careful. And by the way, why doesn’t Eddie just tell folks at school that he is a “freshman”…..no further explanation needed…..let them assume his age!

So. You think we have made it through the storm? That statement sounds good to me. It makes me feel like we need to have some long conversations and see what’s coming at daybreak…… (STORM? HUH? Was she asking too many questions for ole' lover boy?)

Hi,
How are you doing today? I think I'm all caught up from not being here yesterday--and since it was that easy I should have taken another day off.

It was so good to see you again yesterday and to be able to spend some time with you. Speaking of spending time together. . .I was writing to you yesterday when you called and was trying to explain my thoughts about asking you to spend time with me. (This is going to get confusing.) I don't know if I got my piont across or if I even completed my thought in the message you received but the short-hand version goes something like this: The default is that I always want you around so I'm not going to ask you to come by unless it's something special. I also assume that you want to be with me so when you're not it's because your presence is needed elsewhere--and that's a judgment call you'll have to make. I think I'm probably beating a dead horse here but I wasn't sure I got this out yesterday. (Ed, tell her you are with one of the other girlfriends or your fiance. Come on Ed - make her just take a number!)

Well, it looked pretty nice out a few minutes ago but now it's starting to cloud over. I'm never going to get the lawn in this year. . .

Now that is great. I was in meeting all day yesterday. We are having Inspector General meetings for the next week and also accreditation meetings for the University. What a week coming up.

I am slated to go to Huntsville and than to Rock Island, IL. for the next week. I am filling in on areas that don't have the expertise and knowledge to deal with Inspector General folks and accreditation questions and answers......... Nice to feel needed but I could have done without it.......

How are you doing? I do miss you and wish whomever was tracking our email would just give it up........ I have not heard of any since the last one. I have not used my yahoo mail and it rejects mail since the box is full...... Maybe they will give it up. I think they realize that interfering with Gov't mail puts the Feds on them. (how about telling her your fiance and other 2 girlfriends are into your email trying to figure out the red flags?)

Hope your day is going well. I am out of here tomorrow evening on my sojourn....... Want to join me ? Smile.

Love and miss you, Ed

Hello, I am getting ready to go to DC. From there I am heading to Huntsville, AL. I will be back next week probably on Wed.

You should not have a glass of wine by yourself. It conjures up memories. I know, I do the same thing at times........... At least the memories are great ! ! !

How is your day going? Hope you are doing well and NPS is not getting on your nerves.......... It will be interesting to see the changes there since I left. I know after listening to you they have made many. Well, I guess things have to change. Not all the time for the better but some are.

Honey, you take care. I am heading out of here at 11:00AM driving to DC. It is raining so the drive will be longer than normal.

Love you,

More Fun, Games & LIES from Charles "ED" Hicks

The Man Who Married Too Much
Va. Wife Discovered Utah Wife and More

By Tom Jackman --Washington Post Staff Writer

Ed Hicks is married to two women: one in Fairfax County and one in Utah. He previously has been married to at least five other women in this country, and, three times, he did not manage to get divorced from one before hitching up with another.

Hicks, 61, is "in love with love," according to a profile he posted on a dating Web site. Current and ex-wives describe him as romantic, handy around the house, a smooth talker. One woman continued to live with him after they were divorced.

He was "the first man I ever fell in love with," said Sharon Hicks Pratt, 60, of Las Vegas, the second of his former wives and the mother of his first child. While living in California, the two took motorcycle rides along the coast every weekend, Pratt said. Hicks built a brick wall outside their home, installed lawn sprinklers, redecorated the bathrooms and served as a father to the three kids she had before she met him, she said.

"He could be a real nice husband," Pratt said. "But he just has to have more than one woman."

Sandra Phipps Hicks, his Fairfax wife, found that out the hard way in April, when their tax refund check was redirected to pay off a tax lien from his marriage to Julie Flint Hicks, 43 -- his wife in Layton, Utah.

Sandra Hicks went to Fairfax police and showed them a copy of Julie Hicks's marriage license. They charged Ed Hicks with bigamy, a rarely used felony count that in the case of conviction carries a minimum two-year prison sentence. Hicks has a date today in a Fairfax courtroom.

After the discovery, Sandra Hicks began digging into her husband's past, working backward from ex-wife to ex-wife. The last three wives have formed a support circle of sorts, commiserating with one another and warning Ed Hicks's new romantic prospects of his secret past.

"I had already picked up on some of his lies and was a blind fool to his cheating," said Sandra Hicks, 49, who married Ed Hicks two years ago. "But he, in his charismatic, smooth way, was always able to explain it away."

Ed Hicks has been officially single between marriages only for periods of eight days, six days and 13 months, court records show. He has three children and has had nine stepchildren.

He lived in the Hybla Valley section of Fairfax with Sandra until April, when she booted him out of their townhouse. He declined repeated requests for an interview.

According to Hicks's résumé, obtained from Sandra Hicks, he is a publications analyst for the Army and works with a low-level security clearance at the Hoffman Complex in Alexandria. He has worked as a civilian for the military for most of his career.

"He was so much fun," said Julie Flint Hicks, his Utah wife. She met him at her job in the early 1990s when both were living in California, and after a chance meeting several years later, they began dating. She said Ed Hicks told her that he had been married once before, to the mother of his two children, and that he had bachelor's and master's degrees. All false.

The two went on only one formal date, Julie Hicks said, because Ed was raising two children. Instead, they stayed in and watched television mostly.

"It didn't really bother me because he was a good dad, he was watching out for his kids," Julie Hicks said. "If you had asked me then, 'Does he love me?' Oh, yes, there is no doubt in my mind.

"It was so strong. Then one day, it turned off. It was just weird. I don't know why."

They had been married four years and were living in Chesapeake, Va. Julie Hicks's parents in Utah were both ill, and she made plans to go there to help them. One morning, as she was getting ready to leave, she found a typed letter on her pillow from her husband, telling her, "It is not working out." Julie Hicks went to Utah and never returned to Virginia. She also never divorced Ed Hicks.

While Julie Hicks was in Utah, Ed Hicks moved on to Sandra Hicks, whom he met through an Internet dating site. Ed Hicks began driving to Northern Virginia to date her, not mentioning his wife in Chesapeake.

"I loved him. I wanted to be his wife, I wanted to share a lifetime with him," said Sandra Hicks, who took in his two teenage children and helped support them even before their father had moved in with her. The two went fishing, traveled together and bought property in the Bahamas. Sandra Hicks said she paid for everything.

Then, shortly before their second anniversary in May, she called the IRS to find out why they hadn't received their tax refund. She was told it had been applied to a tax lien from his joint return in 1999 with Julie Hicks.

She contacted Julie Hicks and learned that she was still married to Ed Hicks. Then Sandra Hicks checked the Internet and found he was still looking for women to date. She kicked him out April 13 and went to police six days later.

In addition to the trail of broken hearts and financial problems that current and ex-wives say Ed Hicks has wrought, his legacy includes an abandoned son, who is living in Las Vegas. At 32, Christopher M. Hicks, his son with Sharon Hicks Pratt, is working his first job and getting his life in order after years in foster care, street gangs and prison. He hasn't seen or spoken to his father in 20 years.

"I don't know what I would say to him," Christopher Hicks said. "I think maybe if he would have taken care of me, I think we both could have bettered each other. Maybe we wouldn't have been in this [mess]."

Hicks was 21 and in the Air Force in California in 1965 when he first got married, to a woman with four young children. Over the next four decades, he would impose strict rules on how his households should be run, inflict occasional beatings on the kids, according to his first son and his stepchildren, and start dating other women while he was still married.

Sharon Hicks Pratt, his second wife, was then Sharon Tealer and the half sister of his first wife. They had Christopher while Hicks was still married to his first wife.

"Everything he did was romantic to me," Pratt said.

Then, she said, she caught him cheating. Hicks was on to wife No. 3, taking young Christopher with him to Washington state and refusing to disclose his whereabouts, Pratt said.

Hicks invited his third wife, Monica Marschall Hicks, and her friend Johnette Erlandson, to live with him. This, in turn, led to Erlandson becoming wife No. 4, though Hicks hadn't divorced his third wife, according to court records.

Ed and Johnette Hicks had two children together in the mid-1980s. Even after they divorced in 1994, they continued to live together for several years, she said. "He's just a very charismatic individual," said Johnette Hicks, now 45.

The pattern continues to this day: A seemingly normal relationship begins between a single, working woman and a divorced man with two children, followed by a quick trip to the courthouse for a civil ceremony. No mention of any existing marriages from Hicks and not much financial contribution from him, either, his recent wives said.

"I just think he wanted control," Johnette Hicks said. "He looks at his women and his children as his possessions."

Julie Hicks said that after she and Ed Hicks grew close in the mid-1990s, even as he was married to his fifth wife, he moved all of Flint's furniture into his new home in California without telling her. At first, she said, she was taken aback. But she saw it as a romantic gesture and moved in with him.

Their wedding was a brief courthouse ceremony. By 2000, they had moved to Chesapeake and their relationship had soured.

"I ended up having to declare bankruptcy and I lost my car," Julie Hicks said, after her husband ran up credit card bills and failed to make payments.

By early 2001, Ed Hicks was looking around again and posted his profile on the Internet. That's when he met wife No. 7: Sandra Phipps, a technical writer and former teacher.

"He has an aura of magic about him that is mesmerizing," she said. They went fishing and took vacations together. Sandra Hicks said she, too, always paid for both of them. They married in a civil ceremony in the Bahamas.

As with all of Ed Hicks's marriages, the magic quickly wore off. Sandra Hicks said debt collectors soon began appearing at her door.

After learning about the Utah wife, she checked the Internet. There he was, trolling, Sandra Hicks said. She threw him out and had to take out a home equity loan to repay the debts her husband had incurred.

"That's my money, and I'll never see it," she said. "And I don't want to see it as long as he gets thrown in jail."

Even after he was arrested in late May, Hicks did not stop looking for love. Sandra Hicks said he has dated a woman he met online and has been chatting online with at least four other women -- three of whom are fictitious characters created by his Fairfax wife.

"He was charming, he was accommodating, he seemed to be who he said he was," said one of the women Hicks has dated several times in recent weeks, until she was alerted to his history by his current wives. Hicks told her he was 52, had graduated from California Polytechnic State University and had been married only twice -- all false. She and Sandra Hicks were particularly impressed by his government security clearance, thinking it signaled a level of verified integrity.
(Note: Hicks STILL has security clearance - WHY IS THAT!?)

I know men," said the woman, who requested anonymity to protect her privacy. "You usually can pick up red flags. But him . . . God, he talks good."

Staff researcher Bobbye Pratt contributed to this report.

TO: XXXX
From: Charles Hicks

Sam, I am glad you have such family support. It is wonderful to have them around when things are tough. It is also great that your Ex has come to help as well. You have a structure, which permits such helpful actions.

You asked quite a few questions which I thought we would have gotten to by now. I understand your concern since your last relationship went bad on you. I felt as though I was paying the price for someone else's actions. I backed off since it seemed you were guarding against to close a contact. I was not happy about it but I did understand. (NOTE from Site Owner: Notice the "I am such a sensitive noble guy B.S.!!) I felt you would be worth getting to know even if we just turned out to be friends. I don't have a problem with just being friends at this point. I just would not enjoy being scrutinized to the point of being bad until I or someone else proves I am not. More like being guilty until proven innocent. Okay, I am past that stage and am willing to move on if the effort on both our parts are genuine.

When I first told you I was not living alone you were confused about that. Let me address that issue so we can either move past it or let it hold us back. I am planning to retire sometime within the next year or so. I have a house to build on the island and paying premium dollar for a house or condo in Alexandria or any surrounding community would not be in my best interest. I have seen housing markets come to a screeching halt in the past. House sales slump to lows, which would keep me here and not allow me to sell and move on in my life. I cannot or will not allow my hopes & dreams to be smothered by market sales of homes. Remaining liquid is the way to control my own destiny. I don't know what to tell you other than that is my decision and it is best for me. My children are grown and are not in the equation now. I don’t' have to provide a home and stability as I had for over 20 years. My thoughts are now to do what I can to ensure a retirement which will allow me to travel and do what I makes sense to me and give me what I have worked for all my life. I hope you understand and not put me into a box, which is associated with everyone else.
(Note: Can we count the number of times this narcissist said "me" or "I"??)

Your life with your Ex ended in an equitable sharing of assets and things you both accumulated together. I was married twice. My first, she and I are great friends. (LIE!) Things happened which had no bearing on love or caring. I raised two children from diapers to adulthood. She knows my character and who I am. Just as your Ex feels comfortable with you after a divorce. My second wife is Satan herself. (PROJECTION) I did not see this but have paid the price but at least have successfully removed the problem from my life. Am I cautious, yes? Am I wrapped up in what went wrong and what a mistake I made in judgment, no. I am looking for a friend and if she turns out to be more than it should be a mutual arrangement. I don't want anything from anyone I just would like someone to spend time with and maybe share a life long dream of living in the islands. Being able to pursue the water sports I love and enjoy. This may not answer any of your questions but it might let you know I am not carrying baggage, which would prohibit love, friendship with another person. There is no one perfect for any one person. Without flexibility and a willingness to trust it is fruitless to search for someone to hopefully include in your life. Maybe it is too early for you. I don't know, but again I am willing to see if we can be friends.

Now for some other issues you are concerned about. I work for the Army. I have worked for DoD and the Navy during my Fed career. I have twenty-seven years with the Gov't and probably won't remain for 30 years. I can leave when I am fifty-five and that is what I plan to do. Trying to compute and live with a 2% reduction in retirement benefit will not be a deterrent for me leaving. Life is short. Most persons our age are leaving the work place because they understand that fact and realize that when you don't feel good about what you do it is time to move on. (I have reached burnout (but not marrying & defrauding women burnout, huh?)) Adding stress by remaining will take years off my life. I am a very healthy individual at this stage of my life and I would like to enjoy what ever is remaining.

I live about two miles from Old Town off Route One (YEAH IN HIS VAN). So I am close to where you would be staying. It would not matter to me if I lived as far away as Richmond, it would not be a problem getting there to have coffee with you. Face to face puts some things into perspective and allows each to view and chat a little with a person. This is innocent and without commitment. (nice words, innocent & commitment - seducer-speak) I would not be honest if I told you I expected more: I don't. I understand visual acceptance is part of any friendship or relationship. Let's continue with your schedule and see if we can obtain a level worthy of us being just friends. No expectations, just talk. When it is over you can retire to a neutral arena and assess whether you and I can be friends. I will do the same. If that first step turns out to be negative we just thank each other for their time and move on with our lives. I would always wish you the best and know you will find the right person for you. I know I will as well.

My weekend was uneventful but enjoyable. I like down time every so often to reflect on life, direction and remaining within myself. (Troll for my targets at the local internet cafe?) They are huge points, which drive us to our goals. I worked a little more on my purposed contribution to the island I plan to live the reminder of my life on. As you might know, most islands in the Bahamas are close to third world. Meaning there is high unemployment, facilities are in most local areas are substandard, etc. My plan is to make the islanders aware of their responsibility to the island they live on and love. (Because I am the KING of RESPONSIBILITY!! not) Clean beaches. Going to remote locations and actually cleaning them up and making all visitors aware it is their responsibility to pack out what they pack in. Not the case at this present time. I have developed a monthly plan, which is in conjunction with the many churches on the island to clean a beach a month. Have islanders take responsibility for informing those who enjoy the beach >to help clean it. I have enlisted landowners; heavy equipment companies who will act as land fill maintenance or caretakers for covering the trash and refuge we collect as a result of our beach cleaning efforts. If I affect a few it will be doing something very near and dear to my heart.
(None of this was true - and btw, what a control freak! Sounds like a dictator)

Okay, now you have some idea of who and what I plan to do and close to a time frame of when. I am not a churchgoer and have not been for a very long time. (One would hope NOT!) I believe but have not found the right place to practice a religion I can believe in. (the religion of ED, where everything he does is o.k. & wonderful) This is a long story and should be taken as a single issue.

After reading what I have written if you still feel we should meet we have time to match schedules.

You have a great day. I am getting things ready for work tomorrow. I hope your daughter continues to improve so she can get home where I know she would rather be. I am heading to California at some point within the next three weeks. It could be tomorrow or the complete term doctors have estimated for the time and date of birth. I will let you know if any of this effort changes plans we have made.

Take care, Ed

Hello Sam
You are so right about Eleu and Harbor Island. Riding the golf carts around the island which has a third world feeling about it. It is precisely that feel I like. Given the right kind of transportation (Sailboat), you can visit all of the islands in the Caribbean with very little effort. That has
always been my dream to do just that. Why live in the hustle and bustle of commercial life when you can live on an island you can call home. If persons come to visit, we could take them to one of the more commercial islands but still acquaint them with a new way of life.

I hear an investment company has purchased the resort, which was destroyed several years ago. So there will be more activity on the southern end of the island but still would not affect how we live or where. (In your VAN maybe??)

Think of the diving, snorkeling and kayaking we could do in and around the 10,000 islands and Cays, which make up the Bahamas Islands. That is the allure for me.

You are lucky you can telecommute with your agency. I tried it but they are still in the dark ages with respect to what can be done from home. They are ignoring the mandate to move 30% of all jobs into that arena. Oh well, I will be gone (Hopefully) by the time it sinks in or they are made to participate in a good program of telecommuting. Great for you.

It is not my nature to talk about others to others. I promise not to talk about anything concerning Exs unless there is something specific you want to know. There should never be blame since it takes two to tango. We have a deal.

I have two children as well. My daughter is the oldest. She is pregnant with my first grandchild. She is due around the first week of July. I will be going there for the occasion. She lives in Monterey. The place we moved to the East Coast from.

I lived my childhood in NJ. I went west to college and decided to remain there. I had been west until 3 years ago when I was forced to come East. I am a Mechanical Engineer by academic study. I have served in many capacities through the years. Mostly in the computer side of the house but more recently as the agencies Program Analyst. They need someone to blame if
major projects go wrong.

I will close for now. It is getting late and I want you to get this note before you turn in for bed. That seems important to me right now. There is always tomorrow and I look forward to continuing our conversation than.

Chat with you later. Ed

Hi Samantha

Are you too good to be true? (GAG!!) I just joined the service and with what I wanted in my life it seemed a long shot to find someone interested in water, beaches and the Caribbean. Your profile speaks to me in a way no other has. Your interests are so similar to mine. If you add windsurfing and there would be an identical match. Believe me that is not a showstopper as far as I am concerned. As I see it, all we have to do from here is to feel our hearts jump out of our chests when we first meet. I am not into beauty contestants so I don't feel as though looks will be a problem. (as long as you have money and are a smart trusting woman I can fleece) I am a very relaxed person. I do not get upset very easily. As my kids tell me, "I have never gotten mad at them but have been disappointed at times." They know they can come to me no matter what the situation. (IF THEY CAN FIND YOU!!) If things get heated it only lasts about 10 minutes and than life gets back to normal. I don't carry things on for days. Everyone has to move on and that is hard to do if a person remains in the past. (And bothers to get a divorce or 6...)

I have been scuba diving since the mid 70's. I have had meaningful chats with Jacque Cousteau and his son on a couple occasions. Did you know Jacque and his oldest son lived on Eleuthera? (NAME DROPPING!! more Seducer-Speak) When you were there, did you visit the deep hole? Cousteau had a 1-hour special about that body of water on Eleuthera.

Okay, back to you and I. It is highly unusual to find anyone who has been to Eleu. The island is very remote for most tourists. North Eleu is the tourist spot but you need to travel by boat to get to the main island. I am still pinching myself - (are you sure you are not my EX and are playing games?) What a selfish person she was and would do anything to thwart my efforts to
find someone who is down to earth and real. Okay, enough of that talk. Don't worry; I am not carrying any baggage where she is concerned. Life is so much more relaxing now. (At this point Sandra Hicks hadn't filed her charges, Julie Hicks hadn't filed and Tom Jackman was about to make him 'infamous' in the Washington Post) (THWART YOUR EFFORTS? excuse me, you are a multiple bigamist!!)

I see you live in Richmond. Have you lived there all your life or other locations? You sound more like a California girl. (I hope you do not mind me referring to you as a girl. If you do just say so and I will change. I moved here from California. To date I viewed it as a mistake. I was site
manager for a division whose headquarters was located in Wash DC. They closed my location and I had to move to the DC area or lose all retirement benefits. Well, you know the answer to that. I moved. I am a late person as well and rarely get to bed before mid-night. So, if you write back I will get your responses.

To answer your question about St. Maarten; no I have never been there but is probably very interesting as many of the Caribbean Islands are. They are still governed by the Dutch, arent they? I would have to read their retirement policy and what their tax structure is to understand how they view persons who relocate. Seems you made a good decision to move from here. I dont like the direction the US is heading.

If I did not say it in my profile, I am a Program/Management Analyst.

Chat with you later, Ed

LIVING YOUR LIFE ON THE INTERNET - FOR ALL TO SEE

excerpts:

"...Younger people, one could point out, are the only ones for whom it seems to have sunk in that the idea of a truly private life is already an illusion. Every street in New York has a surveillance camera. Each time you swipe your debit card at Duane Reade or use your MetroCard, that transaction is tracked. Your employer owns your e-mails. The NSA owns your phone calls. Your life is being lived in public whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.

"Any new technology has its victims, of course: the people who get caught during that ugly interregnum when a technology is new but no one knows how to use it yet. Take “Susie,” a girl whose real name I won’t use because I don’t want to make her any more Googleable. Back in 2000, Susie filmed some videos for her then-boyfriend: she stripped, masturbated, blew kisses at the Webcam - surely just one of many to use her new computer this way. Then someone (it’s not clear who, but probably her boyfriend’s roommate) uploaded the videos. This was years before YouTube, when Kaazaa and Morpheus ruled. Susie’s films became the earliest viral videos and turned her into an accidental online porn star, with her own Wikipedia entry."

Most of the scheduling information didn't download into NPS's database. Therefore no one can view the schedules at this point. But my part is over.I'll be free this afternoon, if you mean to day.

The technician will be working from Arizona on my computer all morning to see if there is something wrong with my database. (you need someone to work on your conscience - it seems to be MISSING)

Good morning *Carol*

How are things going today?

I am sorry to hear what I knew the answer would be with ###. Avoid the issue. (Just like I avoid TRUTH like the plague!)

Hopefully you will get a good streak of weather so folks there will feel better. Too many days of no sun is not good for the spirits.

So, you are headed down to ###' place. How is she doing? You girls have a great time when you are together so have lots of fun. ### is a great place. Little warm for me that time of your but still good.

My sorry cousin has not answered me yet on staying with the kids. I may have to sweeten the pot by offering money. (My new target...er, wife just doesn't seem like she'd like me leaving her alone for now, so this time I will blow YOU off *Carol*) It would seem relatives would be willing to do things for each other without that. (How about married people keeping their vows?) I reminded her that I baby sat her when she was a tiny tot and she could at least return the favor.

We just finished Gas Mask Training. All Federal and military workers here have to go through training and be issued a Gas Mask. I don't know if that is required in any other area except DC but it is happening here. It stirred up thoughts of 9/11 in some folks just taking the training and being issued a mask. I cannot think about that kind of stuff or it will drive you crazy. (On 9/11 - Hicks told Wife #6 he was AT THE PENTAGON and didn't call her all day because he was busy with then fiance, Wife #7!!! Wife #6 was WORRIED SICK!!! and Hicks was nowhere NEAR the Pentagon!)

You have a great day and smile a lot. You have a beautiful smile. I miss it very much. (HAHAHA!)

Honey

Gas mask training. I bet that brought back military memories for you. (MILITARY MEMORIES?) I hope you will never have to use them while you are there.

Things are fine today. I am going home early and plan to take tomorrow off to rest from this job. Mostly to sleep.

I can't wait to get to some warm weather. However I'm still burnt from the sun in Hawaii.
### is fine. She had brought a new house in ###. But she is planning to move back to ### next year.

### is planning to retire after she sales her ### in ###.

We plan to relax, sleep eat good home made cooking and chase men...(smile)

I pray your cousin comes around. You are missed especially from the times we have shared.

### keeps asking about you. When I don't call her over a period of a few days. She thinks you are in town. She will say to me. "Is that man in town?" I have to laugh at her comments because she is funny! (Hopefully she is worried about you being with that SNAKE!)

Miss you as before
Love
*Carol*

Well, when I get there we will have to go by and see her. She must be lonely there in that house by herself.

Yes the training did remind me of military life. I look at it this way, if we get a warning that infectious gas is in our area it will be too late. We will have been infected by than. Just a false sense of security the Gov't wants us to have. Smile. (Not much different than the false sense of honesty & security you instill in all your targets, huh Ed?)

Sounds like you need some rest. I know with doing the scheduling there by yourself was a big task. One that sucks the life out of you. (LIKE I AM SUCKING THE TRUST OUT OF EVERY WOMAN I MEET!)

I won't comment on the chasing me statement. Smile.

### is going back to ###? What is the reason for that? I thought she was trying to get out of there for all their sakes. The kids and her Ex. (Like I run away from my exes, my obligations and anyone who unmasks me!)

I hope ### sells them okay. I would think they would be a very attractive business for someone in that area. They have to be profitable especially since the air lines are not serving food anymore.

You get out of there and get some well deserved rest. That reminds me of times past. Meeting you at your house and relaxing. Well, we could call it relaxing. I should say stimulating. Smile. (UGH!)

Be good. I am always thinking of you. (ALWAYS!!! define ALWAYS, Ed)

Love Always
Ed

### misses her children and realizes that they are not coming to live with her in ###

Also the school system in ### regrets her leaving because of her ability to turn low rating schools into high achieving School.

They also have an enticing salary for her as a Superintend some where in the systems.

Don't worry.. I have forgotten how to chase men....I'll observe. (you poor woman! at least now she knows - she was HAD!!)

Love you

ADDED NOTE: When Hicks & wife #7 Sandra were married? She would drop him at his job where he removed his wedding ring on his way in. NO ONE at his office even KNEW he was married! Nice touch, huh? UPDATE: Hicks has since been FIRED from this job while he was in jail for felony bigamy.

PREDATORY FUN WITH ED HICKS!!

Charles "Ed" Hicks was our first Predator of the Month when EOPC started this blog in October 2005. Hicks is better known as the 'Dr. Phil Bigamist' when Dr. Phil's show had 2 of his wives on who exposed him as the bigamist & online predator he was. Hicks spent one year of a five year sentence (4 suspended and he's on probation) for felony bigamy. Hicks is a PRIME example of the dangers of Online Dating as well as giving EOPC perfect examples of schizophasia (word salad), seduction techniques, mind control and a sociopath at the keyboard. Hicks is currently living in South Carolina and most probably -- back online.

"come and listen to a story 'bout a man named Ed,
a life of total lies and a legend in his head.
Then one day his last wife had him nailed;
ole' Ed, the bigamist, had a year of being jailed!"

Marrying man left loose ends
He was indicted on bigamy charge in Fairfax; Chesapeake investigates
BY PAUL BRADLEY -- TIMES-DISPATCH STAFF WRITER

ALEXANDRIA -- Call Ed Hicks the marrying man. On an Internet dating site, the 61-year-old described himself as being "in love with love."

So fond is he of the institution of marriage that the Alexandria man has exchanged vows seven times in the past 40 years.

But Charles Edward Hicks' proclivity for romance has left not only a trail of broken hearts and unpaid debts but trouble with the law. According to court records, four of those marriages took place while Hicks was married to somebody else.

In July, Hicks was indicted by a Fairfax County grand jury on a felony bigamy charge, a rare crime punishable by a minimum of two years in jail and a maximum of 10.

Late last month, however, Hicks avoided going to trial, seeming to slip through a loophole in Virginia law. The quirk led prosecutors to drop the bigamy charge against him, though they reserved the right to charge him again.

Meanwhile, authorities in Chesapeake are investigating Hicks and considering whether he can be charged with bigamy there. Chesapeake police have been in contact with Fairfax authorities and with two of Hicks' wives.

Today, he remains married to two women: Julie Flint-Hicks of Layton, Utah, and Sandra Phipps Hicks of Fairfax.

Or does he?

Undisputed, according to a marriage license, is the fact that Hicks married the former Julie Flint on April 15, 1997, in California. It was his sixth marriage. They have not divorced.

Also undisputed, according to documents, is that Hicks married the former Sandra Phipps on May 26, 2003, in the Bahamas. That would seem to mean that Hicks' marriage to Phipps qualified as bigamy.

But not so fast. In the eyes of Virginia law, Hicks and Flint might not ever have been legally married.

That's because court documents and marriage licenses show that when the couple wed in 1997, he was still married to his fifth wife, Rose Marie Sewell. They wed in 1995, and their divorce became final May 6, 1997 -- three weeks after Hicks married Flint.

Under Virginia law, if someone who is already married weds a second time, the two-timer is guilty of bigamy. But that second marriage is considered invalid -- in this case, that means the marriage to Flint.

So if a person marries a third time after the first marriage has been dissolved, bigamy doesn't apply. That's because the first marriage (to Sewell) had ended, and legally speaking, the second marriage (to Flint) doesn't count. That would leave the third marriage (to Phipps) intact.

That doesn't mean Hicks is off the hook, however. Because he and Flint lived for about a year in Chesapeake, he could be charged there.

Bringing bigamy charges is rare in Virginia. A computer search of 20 years of Times-Dispatch archives found the paper reported on 18 cases statewide in which people were accused, indicted or convicted on bigamy charges. Fifteen were men and three were women. Most punishments involved jail terms of less than a year.

Neither Hicks nor his lawyer, Richard S. Simpson, returned phone calls for this article. Simpson has said that Hicks "is dealing with some scorned women who are very angry."

To that, Phipps said: "We're scammed, not scorned."

Both Phipps and Flint are moving to have their marriages annulled -- Flint in Utah and Phipps in Fairfax. Both want their marriages with Hicks behind them, and both want to see Hicks jailed.

Flint said she was forced into bankruptcy and lost her car after debts Hicks had accrued on her credit cards went unpaid.

"He has done this time and time again," Flint said.

Phipps said she had to refinance her home to cover the debts racked up during her marriage to Hicks.

Phipps, who met Hicks on an Internet dating site, said, "He's an Internet predator. He targets women. He'll keep on doing it."

The women didn't always feel that way. Both said they fell hard for Hicks, whom they described as intelligent, charismatic and fun.

"He makes you feel like you're the only woman in the world," Flint said.

Phipps, a 49-year-old federal government employee, was living in Fairfax, he in Chesapeake, when they met online. For their first date, they arranged to meet in Richmond. They hit it off immediately.

Hicks said nothing of his wife in Chesapeake and said he had been married once before, Phipps said. She was impressed that he worked for the Army Publishing Directorate and held a low-level security clearance. He frequently traveled to Northern Virginia on business and to see Phipps.

"I've been around this town long enough to know what a security clearance means," she said. "I thought he was on the up and up."

They boated together, went fishing. Even before Hicks moved to Northern Virginia, Phipps took in his two teenage children into her town house. The couple married in 2003 in the Bahamas, where they had bought some property, looking forward to retirement together.

She had no idea he was married to someone else until April. It was then that she called the Internal Revenue Service to inquire about an overdue tax refund.

She was told the IRS applied the money to a tax lien from Hicks' 1999 joint return with Julie Flint. She called Flint, who told her she was still married to Hicks. Phipps kicked him out, changed the locks on the town house and went to police.

Since then, Phipps has waged a campaign to bring Hicks to justice. She and Flint have become friends. She has traced the information on Hicks' earlier marriages and flagged his ads on Internet dating sites. She has pressed police and prosecutors and pitched the story to the media.

"It is mind-boggling to me that in Virginia, my marriage may still be legitimate," Phipps said. "I'm determined to end his predatory career. I don't want him to do to another woman what he did to me."

A few emails good ole' Ed sent to a new victim while he was still married to Wife #6 and courting soon-to-be Wife #7!

Of course, Wives #6 & 7 did not know about one another and nor did they know about the new victims! It wasn't until Wife #7 kicked Ed the fabricator of lie upon lie out of her home and found a backup copy of his Federal Government Department of Defense work email did she learn about all the other victims.

Hi,
I'm at home. I just left you a voice message with that info but you might not check that for a while. I needed a day off so I called CXX last night and left a message that I wouldn't be in today. I can't do that often, and haven't done it before, but sometimes a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. . .

The two of us are a pair. I don't ask for more of your time because I don't want to make you feel torn or conflicted about seeing me versus spending time with AXXX and EXXX. I always want you to be around; I wanted you to be with me all day Saturday and was hoping you were coming in to town Sunday. You aren't interfering with my routine; I didn't know that's what you thought. Actually, I'd like for you to be part of my routine but that doesn't seem to be happening very consistently. The travelling you're going to be doing only makes these pressures worse for you; I'm very reluctant to add to that by asking for your time. This has to be your call; if there's a time or event or something that I'd really like you to be with me I'll let you know.

You just called so I'm going to stop and send this to you.

Hi Honey (they love these cute names, since ACTUALLY REMEMBERING YOUR REAL NAME BECOMES A PROBLEM WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY!!!!)

First let me comment on the job interview. They will be crazy not to select you. I get a good feel for the type of worker you are and any dept. would be greatly enhanced having you on staff............ That opinion could be a little bias....... Smile.

I know what you mean about the pushes and pulls of our relationship. I feel the anxious times as well. (YEAH, LIKE SHOULD I BOTHER GETTING ANOTHER DIVORCE OR JUST KEEP LYING??) One for me was yesterday. I wanted so much for you to say come to Norfolk. I resisted my inner feelings of asking. (BECAUSE I WAS WITH MY WIFE!!!) I just don't want to interfere and I expect us to be straight forward with each other when it comes to time together......... How do we bridge the gap that is clearly evident when it comes to things like this? Suggestions welcomed............. (PLEASE HELP ME LIE!! PLEASE!!)

I was glad to hear your Saturday went well with all the functions you had on your schedule......... That would have been a great time to see you in your environment............. Smile.

Well the dreaded trips are starting. I have to be at Ft. Belvoir on Thursday. Possibly flying to Huntsville on Friday with the possibility of leaving Huntsville and going to Rock Island, IL. Sound like fun; well it is not........... I hate the south so Huntsville is not to my liking......... It is getting cold at Rock Island and I don't like cold............. ( I think the Huntsville thing is a go - Rock Island ?????????

Sounds like the perfect time when I get back for us to go on a GET ACQUAINTED TRIP to CA. I could be gone for a 1 - 1/2 weeks if things don't go well. If they do it could be shorter.

What is on the agenda for today............. Dinner in or out? How is the lake doing in front of the house? Has LXX heard anything from the Marines? GOD, I MISS YOU................ (I MISS ANYONE WHO IS STILL BELIEVING MY CRAP, or anyone who I have an OUTSIDE CHANCE of selling my lies too!!)
