She flipped through the stack of photographs, stopping when she reached the ones with the mayor and his arm around each of the missing girls, including Sadie.
“Oh my god! There he is with my sister!” I snatched it from Bree’s hand, staring into Sadie’s face. “This is recent. It has to be from the weeks leading up to her disappearance.”
“Yeah, I agree.” She gestured to the pile in front of us. “This is evidence. We need to give it to your FBI contact.”
She was right. This could help my sister’s case. I needed to meet with Agent Phillips.
Biting my lip, I stared at Sadie’s face next to Elliot, concerned that the mayor had set her up. “She’s in trouble, Bree. I know it. What if these bikers are hurting her right now? What if they bury her out in the desert, and I never find her?” Panic clawed at my chest. “I’m never going to see Sadie again!”
“Hey, calm down. We don’t know anything yet, but it’s enough to share with Agent Phillips and maybe get a search warrant.”
Letting my imagination run wild wasn’t helping. “You think?” I didn’t tell her about Agent Phillips and the plans we discussed. I couldn’t.
But now I wondered if he needed to know about this picture and the rest of the snapshots someone had taken. Why did Elliot have all of this in his safe? Did he get sick pleasure knowing these women were all missing and he’d had a hand in their disappearances?
“Yes. We need to log off our computers for the night and get out of this office. It’s getting late.”
“You’re right.” I opened my phone, snapping a quick pic of the mayor and Sadie before handing it over to Bree. She arranged everything neatly into the folders, giving me an encouraging smile.
“I’ll keep the flash drive, and you take the physical stuff. Find out if Agent Phillips will meet with you and take a look at all the information we collected. Let me know what he says.”
“Okay. I’ll contact him as soon as I’m home.”
My fingers gripped the file folders tightly as we gathered our belongings and left the building. We parted ways as we reached our vehicles, waving to one another as we pulled out of the parking lot.
I wondered if Agent Phillips would have what he needed to expose the mayor after this. It seemed like overwhelming evidence of his involvement to me. Enough suspicious documentation to raise a few red flags. That had to help Sadie’s case.
Driving home, I felt anxious, wondering if I should wait to reach out to Agent Phillips. He was preparing for the raid on the Dirty Death MC compound and wouldn’t have time to mess with bullshit. But this was important. It could mean something big for Sadie and the rest of the missing girls.
Pushing the button for a hands-free call, I dialed Agent Phillips’ number.
His gruff voice answered after the first ring. “Callie?”
“I have something you need to see.”
