    Unhappy Urgent! Missing Person! Please Help Translate!!

    Someone please help me translate this...I am trying to find my father that turned up missing 2 weeks ago today from Tijuana, Mexico. This is a letter from his roommate trying to tell me what happened, and I don't understand! The Names I know in it are Doug (my dad), Ivan, Paul, Armando, and Ruben. If you can tell me what this says it would be great. Thanks in advance for helping!


    No habia nunguna fiesta... El unico que estava aqui cuando douglas estava era. el ruben, armando, yo, german, un amigo del douglas.. el Poul y el Douglas. despues yo me fui con German al antro... despues tuvimos alla.. cuando regrese a la casa.. solo estav Armando todos se habian ido... le pregunte al Armando que donde estava el Douglas y me dijo que habia ido con Poul y me dormi.. en la manana del Domingo me levante y me fije en el cuarto del Douglas y me di cuenta que no estava solo estava Ivan, Ruben y un mayate... depues me fui a comer y no regrese en todo el dia.. solo ellos tres se quedaron el la acasa... despues al poco rato me llama Ivan, diciendome que ya estav en la casa el. pero que se iva a ir de nuevo pero que me decia por que el armando se iva a quedar en la casa.. y le dije [ues ya que, por que el douglas lo habia dejado en la casa... ya depues que regrese en la noche.. les pregunte que por que el douglas no habia regresado,., le pregunte al armando y dijoq ue no sabia nada.. le pregunte al ruben y al ivan y ellos tambien no sabian nada.. me volvi a ir.. y se quede armando ruben y el mayate de neuvo,, ya depues.... llegue y el armando ya noe stava solo el ruben y el Ivan.. le spregunte.. y no me dijeiron nada del Douglas,, pero me dijo Ruben que el Armando antes de irse se habia llevado ropa del Douglas... y pues ami se me hizoi estranio.. entonces esperamos... y se nos hace raro todo... Supuestamente el Douglas fue a ver a Poul,, pero fue y regrese y depues se volvio a ir... pero no volvio despues, Le llame a Poul y no sabia nada de el, y eso fue todo.
    Pero ami se me hace raro todo.. como que Armando sabe donde esta,., o a de estar con el.. por que el Armando venia a la casa... por que se llevo ropa? por que ya no viene y por que no llama para saber del Douglas? es todo extranio.. al parecer... y lo que pienso yo,, es que a de estar con el Armando, el douglas recibio Dinero del Puol y aparte supuestamente recibio mas.. de una donacion. y quiso cobrarse a la sorda con lo de la donacion por lo que le debia Poul eso es algo que comento el Douglas pero nose si sea verdad.. Pero inisto lo del Armando esta extranio.. ayer trate de seguirlo para saber donde vive pero creo que se dio cuenta... Yo digo que tienen que investigar a armando...
    Otra cosa., nose si su familia sepa donde esta.. por que le verdad estan actudando como si nada huviera psado algo como... Yo si supuera algo.. no me importa voy a Tijuana y busco a mi papa... que que han hecho? aun nada... Yo nose que hacer.. ya hice lo que pude, la renta se biene,, los bills tambien y pue sla neta no tengo lana.. tengo que hacer algo, Me tengo que mover a algo mas barato, yo no puedo pagar toda la renta, pero antes tengo que saber que va a pasar por que el Douglas tiene sus cosas aqui...
    Ah!! Un favor si tienes $$$ y si me podrias prestar te lo agradeceria ando en la ruina y con cosas que pagar.. te los devuelvo en cuanto me reponga.. please.. Tengo que cambiarme de casa.. y de perdida pagar un mes. es lo que parece el douglas... y haver que pasa...

    Hi I can help you with that but it is too much to translating writing it, I recommend that you conctact me via msn or email so I can explain what it is said more efficiently.

    my email is elreyespe(gmail)

    Default Missing Person

    JLO.

    Sorry about your missing father. That is a long email to translate. I could give you the gist of it, but, perhaps you should contact the police. K.

    Definitely go to the police with this one...especially since this person is asking you to loan him money at the end, possibly to compensate for your father's rent. Someone with the police or court would need to translate this to be filed with the report. Good luck!

    Apparently this person that is writting does not know about your father and he is telling you that he (your father) left allegedly to see Paul but it is strange that Armando says he doesn't know anything but took your father's clothes. So this person thinks Armando does know where your father is or he is with your father.
    He said he called Paul and Paul said he did not know about your father.
    Your father received some money from Paul and some donation too. Apparently he had to pay something back to Paul and he didn't.
    he tried to followed Armando but he realized he was being followed. He is advising to "investigate" Armando.
    Hope this helps. this is the core.
    Realmente, el destino del mundo depende, en primer lugar, de los estadistas y, en segundo lugar, de los intérpretes.

    Default also willing to help by phone

    Hola, and I'm sorry to hear about your situation. If it's easier for you I'd be glad to help by phone as well - just send me an email at Lamariposa47@yahoo.com, and I can respond with my phone #. This letter has a lot of grammar & spelling errors (quite common) and some slang too, so please be sure that whoever helps you - online or in real life - is truly able to understand the letter.

    Chau, suerte!
