Officer : Wake up,
Glimmer Twins. You've got a winner.
This guy goes by the name of Victor. His real name
is Theodore Allen. His prints were found at the
scene by Homicide. He's got a long history of
serious mental illness. His parents gave him a very
strict Southern Baptist upbringing. But somewhere
along the line they fell
short. Victor dabbled in drugs,
armed robbery and assault, spent some time in prison
here a while back for the attempted rape of a minor.
But his lawyer saw to it that didn't last long. His
lawyer, by the way, is recently the deceased Eli
Gould, the Greed murder victim.
Man : Yes sir.
Officer : We're finishing this thing up today ladies
and gentlemen. Victor's been
out of circulation
for a while, but there's still a residence in his
name.
Mills : You're not buying
all this, are you ?
Somerset : Doesn't seem like our guy, does it ?
Mills : You tell me.
Somerset : Our killer seems to have more purpose.
Mills : You ever take a bullet ?
Somerset : Never in my thirty-four years, knock wood.
I've only taken my gun out three times with the
intention of using it. Never pulled
the trigger. Not once. You ?
Mills : Yeah, but. No, I never, never took, never
took a bullet, but I pulled my gun once, shot it
once.
Somerset : Really ?
Mills : It was my first one of these. We were the
Secondary unit. I was pretty shaky going in. I was a
rookie
then. Anyway we bust open the door looking for this
junkie. And the fucker just opened fire on us. One
cop got hit in the arm. Christ, what was his name ?
Spun him like a top. You know, I mean, more like
slow motion. I remember riding in that ambulance.
Well, he died right there. Right there. Christ, what
was his fucking name ? |
