Chapter 2
"She was just collateral damage Mac!" Flack yelled. He took his fist and hit the wall leaving Mac's office in silence.
Flack was pissed. He couldn't believe this happened. He rounded the corner and saw Danny sitting in the breakroom with Lindsay. He took a deep breath and walked in.
Danny and Lindsay deep in conversation when Don walked up behind her and placed a hand on her left shoulder. "How you feelin?" Lindsay gave him a sad smile. "I'll be fine." "That's not what I asked." He said. Danny grabbed her hand. "She'll be fine…."
Danny got up to get Lindsay a drink out of the refrigerator. He gently tapped Don on the back as he got up. Danny knew something was going on between these two.
Don sat down. He gave her a concerned looked and sighed. "Suspect's in custody. You wanna give me your statement?" She shook her head. "Let's take this to Interrogation One. Danno you joinin us?" "Yeah."
They made their way to Interrogation 1 not realizing their suspect was there. Flack and Danny continued on to Interrogation 2 since one was already occupied. Lindsay didn't follow she stopped to view her attacker. She was viewing the interrogation through the 2 way glass.
There suspect was approximately 30 – 35 years old. She couldn't wrap her head around it. He was clean cut a normal looking guy. She really just stood there and just absorbed everything that just took place.
Danny and Flack realized that Lindsay wasn't behind them. They looked down the hall and saw her viewing the interrogation. They approached her.
"Name? ………. "Charlie Diamonti." "Why did you attack Detective Monroe?" Mac asked. "Who?" The woman you attacked this evening. She's a Detective?"
Charlie laughed. "That BITCH had something that belonged to me." He said as he began to stand up. "SIT DOWN!!" Mac yelled. "Well you just made things worse for yourself. On top of murder; you now have assault of a Police Officer added to the list." "Officer Sullivan...Get him outta my face!"
Lindsay just shook her head. Flack put his hand on the small of her back. "Come on Linds. We need to get your formal statement."
As they were making there way to interrogation 2 Diamonti was on his way out. He took a look at Lindsay. "Is that all you walked away with?" He asked viewing the cut and bruises on her face. " I should have killed you BITCH. Maybe you'll see me in your dreams tonight." He laughed. "Shut your mouth Diamonti!" Danny yelled. "Get him outta here." As the officer attempted to guide him towards the holding cell he bent down and charged at Lindsay taking her down to the ground; she hit her head on the corner of a desk and as he landed on top of her he grabbed her gun. He had knocked all men down in the process. His hands were cuffed in front of him that was the first mistake. He grabbed her by the back of the neck. "Get up!!" Lindsay had blood running down the left side of her face. She was dazed. She couldn't react.
All officers on the floor came running toward the commotion. "Now I'm gonna take this lovely Detective here and were gonna leave the building. Try anything and this BEAUTIFUL detective will have a bulled in her brain. " "Your not going anywhere with her!" Flacked said in a loud voice.
Diamonti didn't know that Mac was behind him. He had gone back to the interoggation room to retrieve hi paperwork while Diamonti had already been escorted out.
"Diamonti...just let Detective Monroe go. Make things a little easier for yourself." Danny said. "She's no good to you. She can hardly stand up. How are you going to run through the streets of New York with her?" Charlie looked at her. He could tell that she was in bad shape. "She must have a concussion. Look what you made me do to her!" He said.
