Could he have killed everyone else to cover her death?
They were going to have to figure that out.
“Whoever this person is, they’re intelligent enough to know how to handle forensics, or they’re just damn lucky,” Genestated. “The bodies were dumped outside, the forensics ruined. This person is leaving us very little. My brain went to cop.”
Ethan’s did too.
“Only, we don’t know how much is being left. We don’t have forensics. If we have zero, then yeah, maybe this is a cop.”
Gene now had a pain in his arm, and his ass over this case.
It.
Sucked.
Ethan continued.
“Now add in a cop…when the media is getting a leak, and that worries me. It worries me about as much as Robert Fergus withholding information about sleeping with Ivey,” he admitted.
Oh, yeah, Gene forgot about him.
“So do we have a suspect list?” he asked.
Ethan slid him a piece of paper, and on it, he’d scribbled it down.
“I didn’t want to use the whiteboard, simply because I don’t know if I trust this place. At first, I was worried about someone leaking, but if we have a cop in the mix…”
Gene knew what he was saying.
So, he checked out the list so that they could both be on the same page.
‘Brett Davies
Robert Fergus
Dave Lizney
Randal Crest
Tristan Hevin
Scott Nickerson’
“I think we should add Scott Nickerson to the list, just because he’s a cop, and this person has been evading us,” Ethan stated. “With what we suspect, and his name popping up…”
Yeah, Gene was good with that.
He took the list and read over the names.
“Break them down for me,” he suggested. “So, I know what you’re thinking.”
So, Ethan did.
“I put Brett Davies on there since he found the body in the park. He also works at the courthouse where the victim worked. You know how he who finds the body could be he who left the body,” he added. “Add in the same workplace, even if it’s not in the same job…”
Gene was aware. The man was a clerk, and the dead woman was a lawyer.
Did their paths cross?
