From an early age, Poindexter already knew that his parents had failed to teach him right from wrong, as they would instead resort to yelling at him.

Poindexter had then excitedly demonstrated his latest throw, landing the ball on the same spot as all of his previous throws, as he had even managed to crack the brick wall due to the power of this latest wind up throw. During the baseball game, Poindexter had continued to excel in his role as the pitcher for the Lyndhurst Home for Boys , as nobody from the other team was able to hit a single ball that Poindexter threw, causing them to gain an easy advantage over their opponents, as Poindexter gained more and more confidence as the game went along with their game clearly in the lead by a considerable amount.
However, while Poindexter was sure that he would prove himself, Bradley told Poindexter that he would be putting him onto the bench. Although Bradley had claimed that he wanted to give his arms a rest, Poindexter was completely mortified to be stopped from playing in exchange for Kanon taking over. As Poindexter noted that nobody had gotten a hit off him, Bradley insisted that he had to give some of the other children a chance to play, as Poindexter then begged for a chance to keep on playing, while Bradley told him to calm down and breathe.

Ignoring this, Fisk noted the debt that he owed to those fallen agents, as well as the debt he owed to Poindexter.

Poindexter noted how he had lost his friends during the ambush, as Myman reminded him that he had also used lethal force against the Albanians, noting that Poindexter should be on active leave from the FBI.
Becoming frustrated, Poindexter noted that if he had been wearing a mask, like Daredevil or Spider-Man , then he would have been called a hero by the media, but instead, he was having to justify his actions to protect his job. Seeing Poindexter's frustration, Myman simply asked how he was doing, to which Poindexter finally opened up and admitted that he was finding this situation hard. Myman and Poindexter discussed his use of lethal force in the past as an FBI Sniper as well as being with the United States Army , while Myman had noted how using the lethal force created trauma that could take a toll on the mind, with Poindexter suggesting that he could one day lose control, while Myman then still insisted that Poindexter had to process these events.

While Lim searched the room, overturning Fisk's bed, Poindexter searched Fisk to ensure he did not have any weapons.
Once Lim and confirmed that nothing suspicious had been found in their search of his entire bedroom, Poindexter ordered Fisk to turn around, as he questioned if they have done there, while Poindexter looked Fisk in the eye with a smirk and confirmed that they were all clear.
As Poindexter and Lim walked out of the Presidential Hotel 's penthouse, leaving Fisk's bedroom in a mess, due to their careless search, Poindexter turned back around, seeing that Fisk was now out of his room and was looking down at him, which had then unnerved Poindexter as he then walked out from the penthouse behind Lim.

While preparing to give Fisk his lunch, Poindexter looked through the food for anything suspicious and, in an attempt to antagonize Fisk, took a bite of the burger, while Lim removed all of the water, salt and ketchup from the tray to ensure that the meal was as unenjoyable for Fisk as possible.
Poindexter then took all the food off the clean plate that the hotel had provided and had instead dumped it on a wooden tray, messily, much to the considerable amusement of Lim and their other FBI agents watching him, as Poindexter put the steel lid on top as a further mockery, as he and Lim returned to the monitor room.

Both Poindexter and Lim were then interrupted by the unexpected arrival of Tammy Hattley , who introduced him to Winn , as they simply invited Poindexter to get himself a cup of coffee while they interrogated Fisk alone, which had made Poindexter nervous.
Poindexter gets advice from Ray Nadeem. As Poindexter stepped outside the monitor room, Ray Nadeem had followed him out and told him not to panic.

Poindexter tells J. Lim to leave the room. Desperate to know what was discussed behind his back, Poindexter had then returned into the Presidential Hotel , as he found J. Lim in their monitor room, who was surprised to meet Poindexter as he believed he had been relieved for the day.
Having confirmed that all the other agents had gone home for the day, Poindexter then gave Lim some cash and invited him to go downstairs and get himself a cup of coffee, which Lim agreed to, leaving Poindexter alone in the room with access to all the FBI 's cameras.
Poindexter watches Wilson Fisk 's interview. Once Lim had gone, Poindexter then sat down at his desk and began looking back at the security cameras, rewinding their footage until he found Tammy Hattley and Winn sitting down for their interview Wilson Fisk.

However, Fisk noted that while Poindexter might not have needed a favor from him, he may still need his sympathy, noting how the New York Bulletin had written a humiliating story in which Poindexter had just been blamed for the Albanian Syndicate's attack on the FBI.
Poindexter listens to Wilson Fisk yet again. Fisk reminded Poindexter of the protests and mockery that would be coming in the wake of the Bulletin's article, commenting that while he could handle all that humiliation himself, he claimed that Poindexter should not have to carry that weight due to being the decorated FBI agent that he was.

Poindexter considering Wilson Fisk 's words.
Fisk had noted how Poindexter had saved his life, as well as the lives of several FBI agents, noting how the Bulletin had failed to report on Poindexter's heroism, claiming that they had instead villainized and demeaned his actions. As Fisk got to his feet, Poindexter reached for his gun, watching Fisk closely as he then claimed that the world was changing, and any of these real heroes like Poindexter were ridiculed and dismissed, claiming that he only wanted to offer Poindexter his sympathies due to the newest reality they were in.
Considering Fisk's words, Poindexter then turned and walked out of the penthouse. The next morning, Poindexter had prepared for his day, as he read a copy of the New York Bulletin while drinking his usual cups of coffee. As Poindexter prepared to leave, he had shown signs of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder , as he placed his paper on the stacks of older papers that he had been collecting, and delicately cleaned his mug, ensuring everything was placed in the correct spot and remained spotless.
As he left, Poindexter glanced at his photograph of him with the Brooklyn Suicide Prevention Center team, including Julie Barnes , before he walked out the door, only to return when the picture dropped slightly on its hook, as he ensured it was still straight.
Having returned into the Presidential Hotel , Poindexter had then continued to watch over Wilson Fisk , as he had followed behind Ray Nadeem and another agent to go over the updates in Fisk's deal with the FBI in the wake of Fisk's assistance with several recent cases, as Poindexter stood by while Nadeem spoke to Benjamin Donovan who went over their demands in the wake the intel had provided to them leading to the Albanian Syndicate being wiped out.

Poindexter looking at Wilson Fisk 's stare. As Nadeem had confirmed that the FBI would drop all of the charges against Vanessa Marianna , Poindexter remained silent while Donovan also demanded that Fisk being allowed supervised movement within the hotel, in exchange for Fisk's continued support.
Although he tried to ignore it, Poindexter had then noticed that Fisk was staring at him throughout their entire meeting, as he commented on how much the FBI had sacrificed for him, while maintaining close eye contact with Poindexter.
Fisk had then told Nadeem about Matt Murdock , who he claimed was a criminal he had employed to launder his money. Poindexter continues to follow Julie Barnes. As he continued to consider his situation involving Fisk, Poindexter had decided to find Julie Barnes to get comfort from her, as he then followed closely behind them during her usual jog through New York City.
Poindexter kept a close watch on Barnes, stopping when she stopped and observing her as she gave some money to a homeless woman. Seeing Barnes' kindness comforted Poindexter, although he had still kept his face hidden from her, to ensure that Barnes did not know that he was following her.
Once Barnes finished talking with the homeless woman, she continued jogging as Poindexter followed. Poindexter greets Julie Barnes at the hotel. While taking his break at the Presidential Hotel 's bar, Poindexter was approached by Julie Barnes , who questioned if he wanted something to drink, as Poindexter was so shocked to see her there that he failed to answer her question and sat in stunned silence.
However, Barnes then recognized Poindexter from their time working with the Brooklyn Suicide Prevention Center , as she assumed Poindexter did not remember her, as they shook hands while Poindexter had insisted that he did still remember her.
Poindexter asks Julie Barnes out after work. Poindexter noted that he had not seen Barnes working at the hotel before, as she revealed that it was her first day, noting that she had been offered twice the money to begin working there immediately, as Poindexter assumed that Wilson Fisk had somehow arranged this to get in his head. As Barnes went to serve a table, Poindexter invited her to join him for a drink once she had finished her first shift, which she agreed to.
Poindexter having dinner with Julie Barnes. An hour later, Poindexter and Barnes sat down for dinner together, as they discussed all their favorite routes to jog through New York, with Poindexter not mentioning that he had been following Barnes during her jogs, even jokingly claiming that it sounded like Barnes was the one stalking him.
Poindexter asked why Barnes was no longer doing social work, as she had explained that she had attempted to pursue her career as a dancer, noting that she was forced to quit due to an injury, while Poindexter had used Eileen Mercer 's technics to appear empathetic, complimenting her on being brave enough to try it.
As Barnes noted that she had failed to make any backup plan due to her parents being overly supportive of her dance career, Poindexter noted that his parents were never very involved with his life, with Barnes noting that he did not need all their support as he had done great on his own.
Barnes had then questioned what working for Fisk had been like, although Poindexter immediately corrected her, insisting that he did not work for Fisk but instead worked for the FBI, as Barnes questioned if it was scary to work so closely to somebody so dangerous, asking if he thought Fisk deserved a second chance. Poindexter frantically grabs Julie Barnes.
However, as Poindexter made the comparison to Barnes working at the hotline for three years, Barnes questioned how he knew the exact amount of time she worked there, noting he had only been there for one year. Although Poindexter tried to pass it off, he made it worse by noting that Barnes quit doing ballet, despite her never mentioning ballet.
As Barnes then made the excuse that he had to feed her dog, Poindexter noted that she did not have a pet dog, confirming that he knew more than he should, as Barnes quickly got up to leave, while Poindexter panicked and desperately tried to explain himself.
Desperate to leave, Barnes threw down money to pay for the dinner and tried to go, as Poindexter grabbed her by the arm as he insisted that she was extremely special to him, as Barnes demanded that he let go of her and stormed out. Completely devastated by the disastrous date with Barnes, Poindexter left the Presidential Hotel as he returned to his apartment , slamming the door behind him.
Once he was alone, Poindexter began having a panic attack, knowing that he had ruined his only chance to have a relationship with Barnes, as he punched the wall, breaking the plaster and cutting his knuckles. Seeing that he had gotten blood onto his white shirt, Poindexter then removed it, while he began hearing voices in his head as his mental state grew more fragile.
As he struggled to get the blood off the shirt, Poindexter continued to panic and threw his possessions across the room in a fit of rage, grabbing a knife and throwing it at his picture of the Suicide Hotline Team, realizing that he had managed to throw the blade directly into Barnes' face.
This action caused Poindexter to see that he was losing control of his sanity, as he managed to get ahold of the tapes that Mercer had given to him, as he sat on the floor and listened to his old therapy sessions until he began to calm down.
Still reeling from his disastrous dinner with Barnes, Poindexter spent the night having near-constant nightmares, while hearing the voice of Barnes demanding that he let go of her arm, until Poindexter finally awoke, covered in sweat, with the voices still spinning around inside his head. Needing to calm himself down before he returned to work, Poindexter went into his safe and collected the other tapes, as he sat on the edge of his bed and listened to Mercer's voice, ensuring him that his internal compass was not broken, but he just needed a North Star or a strong structure from his work life to guide him onwards.
Despite still hearing voices in his head while barely getting any sleep, Poindexter returned into the Presidential Hotel , where he was teased by Alvarez for his appearance, as she also noted that Poindexter was two hours early for work, as Poindexter claimed that his neighbors at his apartment had kept him up all night, as he began watching the security cameras in the penthouse.
However, Poindexter found it hard to concentrate due to the voices of Julie Barnes and Eileen Mercer in his head, as Alvarez had attempted to get his attention. Poindexter prepares to confront Wilson Fisk. Alvarez then noted that she had to give Wilson Fisk his breakfast, as Poindexter offered to do it instead, as he requested that Alvarez get him a cup of coffee.
Once Alvarez had left the room, Poindexter shut off the security cameras inside Fisk's penthouse so he could have a private talk with Fisk. Confronting Fisk inside the room, Poindexter told Fisk that whatever he has planned to do against him it did not work, claiming that he had wasted his time with getting Barnes hired at the hotel, insisting that the FBI had trained them to deal with these exact sorts of situations, as he questioned if Fisk had him followed.
Poindexter demands Wilson Fisk to respond. Poindexter insisted that he did not care about Barnes, as he insisted that no matter what research he had done, Fisk did not know who he was. Despite his attempts to appear confident and unfazed, Poindexter lashed out in rage, furiously throwing Fisk's breakfast tray across the room.
However, Fisk had then continued to stay silent and let him breathe out his emotions, until Fisk finally spoke out and told Poindexter about how he beat his father 's skull in with a hammer as a boy, commenting on how he had been extremely young for his age, having never left New York City or taken the subway on his own yet.
Poindexter listening to Wilson Fisk 's stories. Fisk told Poindexter about how it had felt to watch his father die by his own hands, as he suggested that this feeling was something that Poindexter was familiar with.
Poindexter then listened while Fisk told him that he had been trained to hide behind many fictions to become something that the world would tolerate, commenting on his time in the United States Army and the FBI, as well as becoming a watchful companion of Barnes, only for Poindexter to comment on how Fisk had destroyed his relationship with Barnes, only for Fisk to claim that if it had been honest and true, then nothing could have destroyed it.
Poindexter trying to stand up to Wilson Fisk. Poindexter told Fisk that he should of let him die during the Albanian Syndicate 's ambush when he had the chance, while Fisk then calmly stepped closer towards Poindexter, despite being warned to stand back. Fisk claimed that neither Barnes nor society itself would ever be able to truly understand who Poindexter was, while telling him that the world punished people like him, before then making his comparison between himself and Poindexter.
Rather than agree with Fisk's comparison, Poindexter was disgusted by the suggestion, as he shook his head and stormed out from Fisk's penthouse suite. Following a conversation with Fisk, Poindexter left the penthouse as he went back to the monitor room with his mind became distracted, as he continued to try and hold back the voices inside his head, as he continued to watch Fisk walking through the penthouse, while he heard Fisk's voice in his head.
As Poindexter was eventually broken from his thought by Alvarez, who had returned with Poindexter's cup of coffee and her copy of the New York Bulletin , Alvarez revealed that the FBI was throwing him under the bus, as the Bulletin was running a story, blaming Poindexter for the Albanian Syndicate ambush. Having learned that the FBI were now blaming him for their Albanian Syndicate , Poindexter had returned into the FBI Office where he had his meeting with Tammy Hattley and Winn , who formally asked him to step down from his position in the FBI during their ongoing investigation, with Hattley claiming that this was due to optics, claiming that it should be seen as his paid vacation.
Poindexter sat in silence, listening to the voices in his head and looking at the New York Bulletin article before he then handed over his gun and badge to Hattley.
Poindexter begs Ray Nadeem to help him. Feeling utterly humiliated, Poindexter walked through their FBI office, passing the other agents who were still reading the Bulletin article, as Poindexter continued hearing Eileen Mercer and Julie Barnes ' voices in his head. As he had gotten to the office's exit, Poindexter saw Ray Nadeem and then asked to have a private conversation with him, as he explained the situation to him, clearly in a state of panic.
However, Nadeem told Poindexter to take in a breath, insisting that everything would be okay, although Poindexter also noticed that Nadeem could not look him in the eyes as he said this, making Poindexter panic.
As Nadeem insisted that he was on his side, Poindexter begged him to do something to help him, desperately insisted that he needed this job. However, although Nadeem told him that he had already made a point to commend his conduct in the ambush , Poindexter struggled to hear him while the voices of Mercer and Barnes continued getting louder in his head, as the voice of Mercer commented on how alone he was.

This applies especially to the brotherhood. Over the years many rumors and stories have floated about Alpha's involvement in the organization of these other fraternities. A sampling of questions are below:. Another brother "heard" that a representative of Alpha was to go to Indiana University and meet with this new group. On the day that they were to meet a terrible snowstorm kept the Alpha brother from showing up in a timely fashion. When he failed to show, the Kappa Brothers decided that they would form their own organization,.
Another brother wrote that he was told that the Kappa's were supposed to have become the 10th chapter of our fraternity at Indiana University but they could not get their act together so the brothers moved to Ohio State University where Kappa Chapter was established.
Another brother wrote: The founders of Omega at Howard were allegedly the three brothers not chosen on "Tap Day". In their angst these three ran to their professor Ernest Just and told him of their plight. From that Omega Psi Phi was born. While it is possible that they Omega Founders could have been in the Freshman class in the fall of , there is no known list of the persons who participated in that exercise.
Skip's Answer-There is no documentation to my knowledge that would support or substantiate these allegations no matter how coincidental they might be. Wesley did not mention them in his writing and certainly these organizations as I attempted to prove in yesterday's piece certainly did not credit Alpha in any way.
My research has not turned up any affirmation of these rumors. The fact is that Alpha was on the campus at Howard University, where two Kappa founders attended for a year. Secondly, all founders of Omega and Phi Beta Sigma were aware of Beta Chapter of Alpha and because of differences perhaps used those to propel them to organize their own. I know this may be difficult, but is there any way we can get copies of the history books of the other Greek letter organizations.
I know the Delta Sigma Theta history book is in stores all over the country, but what about the others. Let me know. Also, in a future note, could you address the status and legacy of C. Brother Wesley showed him in an honorable light and he is known as a precursor of the fraternity, but recently I have heard brothers down him for not fully following through on the vision of the founders.
Please provide your insight. Copies must be ordered through the National Headquarters. You can access the National Web site of the fraternities and sororities on the Internet. Poindexter, and Omega Psi Phi? If he was actually involved in their formation, I'd like to know what made him change his mind, and why all of the sudden he thought we were "ready" for fraternity life? Fraternally Yours, Brother Darian M. Bowers Eta Phi Chapter, Spr.
Skip's Response-There has been no factual documentation to substantiate the claim that C. Poindexter was one of the founders of Omega Psi Phi. In fact, when the Omegas were established, Mr.
Poindexter was teaching at Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee. Poindexter will be the subject of a future historical moment.
You will be surprised to know that Poindexter was still the sentimental choice for Callis for that seventh spot as a founder even until You'll have to wait until the book comes out.
