Framed-Ch 4
Hotch and Dave were notified when Derek was booked, they allowed him to talk to Derek so right now they were waiting for the guards to bring Derek to an interrogation room from his cell. When he walked into the room he waited for the guards to hook him to the table and leave before he said, "please give me good news".
Dave said, "we wish we could son, we really wish we could", he said, "so what have you been able to find out"?, Hotch said, "the victims name is Shannon Lowe, Garcia is looking into her right now". Derek listened as Hotch said, "we were checking out the evidence against you and it's stacking up pretty high right now".
Derek said, "evidence, what do they have"?, Dave said, "well they have her calendar that has the two of you meeting 3 times a week for the past several months". Derek said, "I swear to you that I've never met her much less slept with her", Hotch said, "we believe you Morgan, it's just that whoever is framing you is good".
He sat there listening as Dave talked about the strangulation marks around Shannons neck and the injecion marks on her arms, Derek said, "so what are they thinking"?, Hotch said, "they're thinking that you and Shannon have been getting together for the past several months 3 times a week for sex and to do drugs".
Derek said, "that's ridiculous", Hotch said, "and they're thinking that one thing led to another and you killed her during rough sex", he shook his head and said, "I never slept with her". Hotch said, "the DNA in the condoms is yours and the DNA on the outside of the condom matches Shannon so the two of you definitley had sex".
He hit the table and said, "I DID NOT SLEEP WITH THAT WOMAN, I LOVE PENELOPE", Dave said, "we believe you Derek", he said, "so Hotch what are my chances of getting bail"?, he said, "not very good I'm afraid, this is murder that you're being framed for and you would be a flight risk so I wouldn't count on getting bail".
Dave said, "but if they grant you bail I'll get you out", Derek smiled and said, "thanks man", Derek then sighed and said, "I just wish I could remember something, anything". Hotchs attention then went to his cell that was ringing, he put it on speaker and said, "go ahead Em".
Emily said, "PG found out that Shannon has been arrested at least 6 times for prostitution over the past several months", Hotch said, "was she able to find anything else"?, Emily said, "she had a deposit of almost 200,000.00 dollars 3 days ago and she's working on getting the information from the sender but the information is bouncing all over the U. S. so it might take a little time".
Derek said, "how's baby girl doing"?, Penelope smiled and said, "I'm hanging in hotstuff, how are you doing"?, he said, "as good as I can be I guess". Emily said, "what are they saying about bail"?, Hotch said, "l told Morgan that he probably won't get bail, he's charged with murder and with him being an FBI agent he's a definite flight risk".
Penelope said, "but he wouldn't leave", Dave said, "we know that kitten but the prosecution is going to try to prove Derek unfit for bail and with all the evidence against him he's not likely to get it". She said, "hang in there hotstuff we're doing everything we can to get you out of there".
He smiled and said, "I love you goddess", she said, "and I love you", Emily said, "I'll let you know if she finds anything else out", Hotch said, "see ya soon". After the call ended Dave said, "don't worry son we will find out who's doing this to you and when we do they're gonna pay, I promise you that".
Derek sighed and said, "from your lips Rossi, from your lips"
