"Damn You, Bone!", a cop-who-done-it drama/comedy, written and directed by Ken Farmer, is inspired by real life former police officer, Charles David Bone. Names were changed to protect the guilty.
Detective Darrell Ulysses Bone, nicknamed 'Damn You' because of his devil-may-care personality, his penchant for practical jokes, dares, irreverence to authority and he always seems to have a mischievous gleam in his eye. A giant of a man, standing 6'5" and weighing over 250 pounds, and is considered a one man CSI team. Bone has just been assigned a new partner, Investigator Loraine Rodriguez, a beautiful woman of Hispanic heritage, just in time to head up the investigation of a bizarre murder case in a small town (CROSS) in Texas, near Dallas.
Early one morning, before dawn, a beautiful young woman, Beverly Farmer, is discovered by a homeless man in the local cemetery and he proceeds to have sex with her. There's only one problem, well,... maybe more than one. It seems that the homeless man's sex partner is dead. This odd tryst is discovered by the late night beat cop and all hell breaks loose. Examining the victim, Bone has the strange feeling he has seen her before. After interrogating the suspect, Bone determines that not only is he not the killer, but the homeless man didn't even realize she was already dead.
Bone and Loraine return to the "hot" crime scene later that morning to do the 'on site' investigation. Bone discovers an item that doesn't belong; a series of three cocktail straws, folded into neat triangles and linked together. The straw chain is spattered with blood. While watching a prerecorded movie at home that night, he dozes off and begins to dream (Or is it a dream?) the victim appears to him, holding a folded stir straw in her hand. When he awakens he sees her doing a car commercial during a break in the movie. He is shocked to find the folded cocktail straw on the end table. The next morning, he and Loraine visit the dealership where she worked only to find out that she and the owner, Marcus Petrov, were supposed to be in Houston at a car show. They were scheduled to return to Cross the following morning. Bone and Loraine meet Petrov at Cross City Field airport and learn that Beverly had been fired a couple of days ago and sent back to Cross. Bone joins Loraine and her new boyfriend, Bob Ashworth, a former crime reporter turned novelist at dinner. Ashworth wants to write his next book about the case Bone and Loraine are currently working on and strangely knows about the straw chain found at the murder scene. Bone is summoned a few days later to another crime scene where he meets up with Loraine. Bob Ashworth, Loraine's boyfriend, has been murdered. After some unusual twists and turns, Bone discovers who the killer is. You gotta see the movie to find out.
