Just a Little Research
That Friday, the five friends sat around Lynette's table for their weekly poker. The gossip of this week's poker game was Ida Greenberg's murder and Bree had some very interesting suspicions to add to the table.
'This may sound crazy but I think that Faith had something to do with this,' she pointed out. The others were not so sure and brushed it aside without giving it much thought. Bree, however, was determined to follow this through and continued. 'I'm being serious, girls. I mean, what do we know about this 'Faith'? Does anybody even know her last name?' The others shook the heads, finally starting to see where Bree was coming from before Edie chipped in with some interesting news. 'Lehane.' The others looked at her quizzically. Edie shook her head and looked at them all with distaste. 'Her last name? It's Lehane. Yeah I saw her a few nights ago at some club and, after a few drinks we got pretty friendly'. All four of the other women's faces changed into looks of disbelief and shock. Edie looked at them all in turn before realising what they were getting at. 'No, no, no! Not like that! God! Do you really think I'm that much of a slut? Actually...don't answer that.' They all laughed and the previous speculations on Faith were forgotten. That is, except for Bree who was planning on doing a little research about their new neighbour.
As soon as she got home, Bree sat down at her computer and typed in Faith's full name. She gasped in horror as the list of search results popped up. They all had one very significant detail in common; Faith had been in prison for manslaughter and had escaped only a few years into her sentence. For heaven's sakes! There was a murderer living on their quiet little street and nobody except her had any idea. Well, it was quite obvious to Bree who was responsible for Ida's murder. It was her obligation to turn Faith in. Before she could have any second thoughts, Bree picked up the phone and dialled 911. She reported everything that had happened and everything she knew. To her surprise, nobody seemed to show much interest. It was as if she was making the whole thing up and the fact that this woman had been one of America's most wanted seemed to have slipped their minds. Something was going on and Bree was determined to find out what it was. The next morning, she decided she would send the police copies of the articles she had found but, when morning came, all traces of Faith Lehane on the Internet had vanished
