A laminated index card with a handwritten code stuck to an electrical panel became the last visible trace of a year-long online romance that cost a teacher $9,000. The card read “For Alan - the code is 1-9-8-4, same as always. I trust you completely. - J.” Who wrote it, and why was it left on a house in Draper Falls?
In this episode, we tell how a thirty-eight-year-old fifth grade teacher named Jean Brooks met someone calling himself Alan Moore online, how their messages unfolded over thirteen months, and how small, specific money requests led to transfers totalling $9,000-so what exactly broke the pattern and left that card as evidence?
Person: Jean Brooks
Age: 38
Location: Norwood Terrace, Draper Falls, Ohio
Amount: $9,000
Timeline: August 2017 to November 2017 (first requests), correspondence continued thirteen months
- Jean bought a house in cash on Norwood Terrace and moved in with her cat, Biscuit.
- Jean created an online profile in August 2017; eleven days later she received a message from “Alan Moore.”
- Alan’s profile claimed he was an architect based in Portland, Oregon, deaf since birth, working on a long-term contract in West Africa.
- Between October and November 2017 Jean sent irregular transfers that totalled $9,000 after four financial requests.
- A laminated index card reading the code 1-9-8-4 with the signature “- J.” was found pressed to an electrical panel and later placed into an evidence bag.
