And I said, what are you telling me for?

I could have used that two years ago.

I already wrote the book, but the best part was, is I wanted to know how you do disappear.

And they said to me, and this is true that no one, the martial service has never lost anyone in witness protection.

As long as they followed all of our rules, that's the caveat.

And here's the thing is it used to be, if someone moved to your neighborhood,

You could look at them and say, I want to meet them or I don't want to meet them.

And that was as far as you got.

And then if they moved in and they were in witness protection, you didn't know.

But now if someone moves to your neighborhood, what do we do?

We immediately go on Zillow and we Google how much they paid for their house.

We check their Facebook page.

If they don't have a Facebook page, well, now that's even more suspicious.

So now we've got to check even more.

We look up to see whether they have a criminal record.

We see if they're on a pedophile list and witness protection is

itself has had to adapt to that.

You can't just make a fake driver's license and call it a day.

You have to build entire things.

And the hardest part of disappearing is this.
