Chapter 11 - Dead Ends
It was nearly the end of the day. It had been exhausting. There was just about time for a debriefing but it wasn't going to raise any morale.
"Okay team, our main suspect Jeff Simpson is out of the runnings, he has alibi's and he has a wife who is mixed race," Sam announced.
"Sam I don't think we should take him out of our investigations, he could be using his wife as a cover up story," Sheelagh explained.
"Yes, good thinking which leads me on to Jo, Jo what did you find out about her?"
"She has convictions for prostitution a year ago, that's all."
"Good work Jo. Terry what did Mr. White say?"
"Never heard of Jeff Simpson but he did look nervous and scared." Terry replied.
"Not a good day then. Tomorrow Jo I would like some surveillance of Mr. White just his generally coming and goings. I'm pretty sure he is being pressurized by someone. Jack what do we know about this morning's murder victim?"
"Guv you can't honestly think that it's the same murderer," Phil defined.
"D.S. Hunter are you questioning my authority?"
Phil just looked away sheepishly.
"Her name was Natalie Spall. Her family said she was at the cinema and never came home. She was killed exactly like the other victims. But we also have evidence she was raped. They are seeing if they left any D.N.A. evidence but I doubt it this killer is smart."
