Federal prosecutors maintain that they did not have complete knowledge of how Portell concocted his stings, which began in 1987, after he was arrested in New Jersey for writing bad checks.

Convicted and condemned, Adams was like the man in the dream whose lips form words but who cannot be heard.

An odd pair: Willey, somewhere over 6 ft. 5 in. in his cowboy boots, lean, green-eyed and with an easy grin; Graff, short and with a squared-off boxer's nose, but unpugnacious. As environmentalists go, they speak softly and strangely: California water distribution suffers under misguided socialist precepts, they argue.
