Case of the Innocent Murderer Los Angeles California 1947.....home to more then 1 million people....most of those people live around the city. Beverly Hills.....Van Ness.......Glendale.....and Hollywood....also known as Tinseltown. This where I live worked......I share an office with LA's first female Attorney who also happens to be it's first female PI. The office we share is on the corner of Sunset Blvd Vine St.....but that's not the only thing we share....we also share a secretary. Friday night......1045 pm.............A man working for the city gathering garbage around the Hollywood Recreation Center came acrossed a shocking sight. The bodies of three teens....two boys one girl were laying in the bushes at the far end of the park. All three bodies were badly beaten......blood was everywhere. The man quickly called the police who rushed over then closed off the park area. They found no clues as to who would do something like this too these kids who had never caused anyone any kind of trouble. The Hollywood Police were stumped.....that is until Saturday night when a man sitting in a downtown bar openly admitted to murdering the kids. The bartender quickly called the police as the man started to leave....he didn't get far since a patrol car which had a radio in it was passing by. The man ran from the cops......but more arrived on the scene. He tried his best to get away...even stealing a police car which caused a massive chase acrossed the city until the man wrecked. He was arrested then taken down to Parker Center where the main lock up for the City of Los Angeles was. Monday morning.......915 am.......June 21st. It was the first day of summer in LA and it was making an impact. The temperature was already 85 degrees on it's way to at least 95 or better. Mathew Knight was sitting at his desk trying too keep cool....but the fan he had just wasn't cutting it. Mathew or Matt as he was called by close friends was reading the story in the newspaper of the police chase that happened over the weekend. It seemed pretty cut dry...there were witness who said that one Willy Miles confessed to the murders....he ran from the cops.....but yet Mathew felt like something was wrong. Mathew looked at the picture of the man in the paper.....in the man's eyes Mathew didn't see a murderer....but why would this man admit to the killings? Mathew wasn't sure why.....but he felt as if he needed too look into the case. Mathew stood up..he grabbed his dark gray gabardine double breasted suit coat from the coat rack then his fedora hat placing into his head. He was a handsome man....standing 6 feet 3 inches tall.....weighting 220lbs. His short dark hair was now hidden under his hat....then Mathew pulled his colt 45 automatic from his desk drawer then slipped it into the shoulder holster he always wore under his left arm. On his way out Mathew told Nina Chambers who worked as the secretary for both he his partner that he was going down to the police station....but what Mathew didn't know was that at the same time the mother of Willy Miles who was being held for murdering the three kids was in the other office pleading with his partner too help her son. Mathew left the office build jumped into his dark blue 1939 ford coupe then drove off. It was long before he pulled up in front of the LAPD Division Station in Hollywood. Mathew was well liked by the police at the Hollywood Station....he had been very helpful on a kidnapping case a few years ago saving a young girls life while helping the police put a sick man behind bars. Mathew said hello and was greeted by many of the officer with handshakes while he made his way towards Lt. Mike Grant's office. Grant was Mathew's closet friend on the force....the other man who was sitting in the office was Sgt. Ben Warren. Both men were good cops and Mathew thought of each one as a friend. Mathew knocked on the door then opened it saying hello as he stepped inside. Well if it isn't LA's best gumshoe....what's up Matt? Mike said as Ben who was dunking a donut into a cup of coffee. Oh not much.....just thought I hang around and see what information about Willy Miles I could dig up. Mathew said as he took off his hat then sat down in a chair.
