Which doesn't say much for the state of Rhodesian intelligence, because yet Frank's taking a little creative license here. The story he's telling is not 100% true, but he is admitting to you almost all of the real details for the real crime he really did go to prison for.

So you probably should have figured that out before he told you, and you definitely should have been able to figure it out after he told you. They could have contacted a police department or a courthouse in New Jersey and just asked.

Hell, they probably could have called any resident of Tenafly, New Jersey at random and just asked, do you remember the teenage Nazi bank robber who shot a cop in his mom's front yard? It's kind of a small town. I bet everybody remembered. But I guess they didn't do that. They weren't even a real country, so maybe they didn't have a guy who knew how to do a background check.

The Rhodesian police continued to hold Frank in custody. And while he was waiting to find out if they were going to try him for attempted murder, he got some mail. An envelope containing two United States passports and $300 in cash. Both passports bore Frank's photo and Frank's birth date, but only one had Frank's name on it. The other was for Francis August Shellhammer, a man who doesn't exist.

He explained to the officers that he was quite good at making such things and even offered to forge a pair of U.S. passports for Hickman and the other detective. Hickman says that they declined the offer. Remarkably, the Rhodesian government opted to drop the charges and just send Frank home. Can you court-martial a mercenary? I don't, that's not something I've ever needed to wonder about.

I don't know really what the options were here, but it wasn't worth it to them. They sent him home. So sometime in the summer of 1975, Frank Sweeney was kicked out of the Rhodesian light infantry and deported from Rhodesia. He got his free flight home after all, and was permanently banned from a country that never existed. Shortly after he got home to New Jersey, he wrote a letter to Hickman.

Frank's mother had mailed him some more cash before all this trouble got started, and it arrived in Rhodesia after he was already gone, and he wanted Hickman to put it back in the mail for him. His letter, which Hickman has actually held on to all these years, is dated August 22nd, 1975.
