As I finished the code for straight-line coil geometry tonight, I thought of an abbreviation for the above story. Take the year it happened, 2014 and subtract 30--(re)read this book:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nineteen_Eighty-Four

then add a little of this for good measure:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_Farm (being a free software developer)

I think a section of the redacted text on the police report was "Neighbor heard him telling her 'I love you, Julia.'"

It was like living a hyper-realistic version of 1984. "My name is Winston Smith." Except, although I'm sure I can be broken, they didn't accomplish it that time. Our English class read the book 1984 in the year 1984. I read Slave New World, er Brave New World when I was 12--I guess I should have seen this all coming with my advance study of it. Hmm...
