Thread: The Killer and The Victim (I_Am_Nobody x CyanideDisaster) (Completed)

RE The Killer and The Victim IAmNobody x CyanideDisaster No worries. I already have, Kinsman replied in a calm voice, and a folder could be heard dropping onto the table. The folder was opened, the papers inside being shuffled. The possession was a nasty little incident certainly, but could perhaps be set aside as a youthful indiscretion. Perhaps. Of course, the papers shuffled. What with the press, the constant questioning, the horror of what you experienced, it's hardly a stretch of the imagination to think that the drug habit might be revisited. We wouldn't want anything to happen to our best lead on the Bogeyman. He fell silent for a few moments, and could be heard moving slightly in his chair. She could not see the thoughtful expression upon his face as he watched her reaction to this latest, baseless accusation. As for Dennis ' record, he finally continued, he is certainly free of convictions or arrests. His personal record is clean. However, he is not free of implications or accusations. Another folder was dropped onto the table. Let me be frank, Ms. Burns. We have reason to believe that Dennis Kohr was killed because the Bogeyman discovered that he was guilty of some currently unknown crime. He did not finish you off, because you were not. This was more than enough justification for me to dig deeper into Kohr's past, and I discovered several interesting things. One of the most interesting things I discovered was a rather remarkable coincidence. Did you know that your Mr. Kohr was marked as a witness in no less than three child abduction cases? None of those cases ever gained a conviction, his testimony always agreed with other witnesses, so there was never a need for him to testify or appear on the court record. Still, to bear witness to three such events...Interesting, isn't it? Even this was just speculation on Kinsman's part. A strange coincidence yes, but it was nowhere near enough to be actionable in any way. Did Emile know that? Whether she did or didn't, he wasn't done pushing her yet. Emile Burns had been coddled so far, treated with kid gloves because she was the only witness. As far as he was concerned, that ended today. He would get results, he would find the Bogeyman, and if that involved destroying this woman's life then he would. ---------------------------- The Bogeyman was much more concerned with how to spare Emile from the discovery of her fiance's horrific actions. He couldn't just take the computer and claim he'd discovered a robbery that gave the police an excuse to crawl all over the place and take everything. But f he simply claimed to have found nothing, it was unlikely that he'd ever get the chance to come back and make sure he'd gotten rid of everything unless he broke in himself. What he needed was a plausible reason to keep coming back and spend hours at a time in the house, without anyone else interfering. Or just destroy everything and call it a day. That option was becoming rather attractive, unfortunately. But not yet, not until there was no other choice. Joseph's fingers began flying over the laptop's keys. At the very least he could get rid of the images here, scrub the drive. It was a start.
