Chapter Two Witness For The Opposition
Ted Waterson had only one place to go, his brother's house in the Bronx. He had called Bobby, his brother. He needed to talk with him about something that he had seen.
His brother Bobby, worked for the construction site, as a security guard for the past year. His next job at the moment was up in the up until after the building was done in another year depending on the funds.
When Bobby in his late forties opened the door, to see his younger brother looking just awful. He just knew that something was very wrong with him.
"What's wrong Ted?" He asked knowing full well that his brother was in some type of trouble.
It took him a minute or two to get his nerve up to start talking.
"It was just starting to get dark, when I had just finished cleaning up the machinery, I was walking over towards the foreman's office when, I saw this white man shoot Franklin into his head."
"Did you happen to see the shooter's face or anything else that you might be able to remember at the time of the shooting?" He asks his brother who was having a hard time trying to vision the scene in his mind.
"If I remember correctly, I saw the right arm of the white man, since he was wearing some sort of a tee shirt, with the weather being some what warm for this time of the year.
"What did you see Ted?" While making sure to not push him over the deep end at this particular moment.
"It was a tattoo of a large Tiger face on the upper part of his right arm." That's all I can remember other then the fact, the shooter had black wavy hair.
"I don't know if this will help you, since I am part of the security force for that construction site, there is a possible chance with the new security cameras, that just maybe I will be able to check the video feed for the outside."
"Is that possible?" He said to his brother, since it was very late in the evening.
"No doubt Bobby, the police are currently all over the area and checking for anything out of the ordinary!"
It was around midnight with Ryan, Esposito and Beckett having to be working overtime on the murder investigation at the Construction site.
Captain Beckett had asked Esposito with permission from security to pull the logs from earlier, on whether or not they are able to see who murdered William Franklin having to be at the precinct.
Kate Beckett, had asked Castle to help out on the case, on whether or not he would be able to see anything different then Ryan or Esposito.
There were several video feeds to look it.
It wasn't until around 1 a.m., when Ryan found something, as he called the group over to check it out, since they were coming out of Captain Beckett's office.
"What is it, Ryan?" She asked.
"I found something that will make our investigation truly interesting!" He shows the video at a wide range, showing the shooter in a tee shirt, as his right hand with the gun firing into Franklin.
At the far end of the video, it shows that someone else was in the area having to witness the murder, along with who ever it was running away from the scene.
"It does look like we have our witness after all! Castle tells the group.
"And we need to find this witness really quick before its too late." She tells Ryan and Esposito.
