Current Goal

The goal of this Travel Bug is to explore various aspects of the Criminal Justice System across the World. This Travel bug would love to meet as many prosecutors, law enforcement officer, judges, any other professionals within the Criminal Justice System or of course courthouses, jails or prisons. Photographs of any of the above with THE PROSECUTOR would be great proof its travels.

About This Item

THE PROSECUTOR (TAKITAPART)

This travel bug, like the Criminal Justice System itself, is a bit of a puzzle. And like so many in the system, the penny trapped is always hoping to be set free. This bug is honor of my profession. This travel bug consists of a wooden puzzle patented in 1938 called the "Takitapart". You can visit it's patent at the U.S. Patent Office's web site under the patent number 2,181,116. Your goal is set forth above, and of course if you can solve the puzzle also, go for it. The only two hints I will give you are that the chain will not, in any way, effect the puzzle and any "wear" on the puzzle is probably indicative of some type of a solution. Forcing the puzzle apart is NOT the answer. For those who get too frustrated, there is a solution, or at least an explanation of the puzzle on the Patent Web Site. Good luck and don't break any laws with this bug around, he's watching you. I've started this puzzle with a 2000 penny which could be exchanged for interesting penny-sized coins. Enjoy.

I found The Prosecutor in "Happy Birthday Buttercup" between Cadillac and Lake City. It was dark, snowy and very peacful. I took The Prosecutor to Hartford, CT on a business trip this week and dropped him off in a nearby cache. I thought that since the TV Show "Judging Amy" was set in Hartford, someone might think to take the TB to the Hartford Courthouse for a visit. We'll have to wait and see. Good luck Prosecutor!!

The White Lake Gang!
