Gross Neglect

Chapter Five

Doctor Jerome Boone asked his associates to meet with him at his apartment complex a couple of blocks away from the Ice Rink police precinct for where the sergeant was working the past few months.

Sergeant Esposito and Detective Kevin Ryan had arrived at the precinct to speak with Captain Alexander in his office. He was out in the field for a few hours checking up on his field officers working on different cases.

He had just arrived back to his office. When he was told by the desk sergeant that two detectives were waiting for him outside his office. "Sergeant do you happen to know what they want by chance?" He asked sounding a tad annoyed with his tone.

"They are here to investigate Sergeant Brooks death sir." He said with everyone else looking at the both of them with great interest.

"All right sergeant I will go with them quickly as possible." He replied with moving off with taking the stairs instead of the elevator.

The doctor was serving drinks to his associates in the living room. He was going over the next stage in order to rob a bank and two jewelry stores during the next month with using their resources at hand.

"We all need to be sure of our facts with these three jobs. I don't need anyone else getting killed in the process gentlemen." He replied with hearing a chorus of positive answers from the three needing refills on their scotches, whiskeys and Rum.

"I understand there is an investigation going on into the sergeant that was murdered. I understand the 12th precinct will be working on the case." Jerry Hovis an ex Marine and police officer for one of the Bronx precincts said to the group in the spacious living room.

The doctor went to make the drinks for his associates. He didn't need a second one with needing to go to bed and getting up early for his rounds at the Manhattan Medical Center working with Doctor Josh Davidson of the cardiac wing. "Here we go everyone. This is the last round for this evening. Just be sure to take the copies of the floor plans of the bank. I don't need any slip ups." He said with venom in his demeanor with sitting down on the black couch while everyone finished their drinks and placing them onto the coffee table and leaving for the evening with grabbing the coats.

Captain Alexander explained to the two detectives that the sergeant had been working under cover with special orders from the attorney general's office. It was strictly volunteer with trying to find out who was responsible for the missing of diamonds, weapons, drugs and other items during the past six months.

"He had told me sergeant that he was getting close to the source. But was afraid that they would find out and go after him." He says to them in his office.

"Did he say who was behind the entire operation?" Espo asked with waiting for his response, while Ryan had been writing notes on his small pad.

"All he was able to tell me was some doctor was working out of Manhattan Medical Center was involved, along with other police officers. That is all I know gentlemen."

"We will be in contact with you once Captain Beckett would be able to speak with the police Commissioner. We will leave now to let you finish up your paper work." Ryan announced with Esposito shaking the captain's hand.

"Thank you." Captain Alexander says with closing the door with the two moving out and having him take in a deep breath into his lungs.
