Chapter 4
Sergeant Greg Parker left his SVU and gathered his team around him. "We'll go as a team to the current residence of the Blazer family. I want to remind you that there are children in the home. Taryn Blazer took out an order of protection against James Blazer, but considering his escalation today, we can't assume he won't be at the house. We don't know what set him off today and if retribution against Wordy was the whole plan or just the beginning. We move carefully until we have more intel. Let's move. Eddie, you're with me." The team headed for their vehicles.
Ed took the wheel as the sergeant climbed in the passenger seat. Greg motioned for his team leader to turn off transmission on his radio. "Eddie, I remember clearly the day you were shot and how much I wanted to go after the guy who put 7 rounds in you. I had the added checks and balances of having Toth and Halloran on the headsets. I get the anger and I'm there with you, but we have to have our heads on straight here. We're going to be under scrutiny however this works out. If you think we need to turn this over to another team, I'll have Winnie re-up Team Three." He stopped at that and looked at his friend and team mate next to him.
The constable stared straight out the window and the only sign he'd heard his boss talk was a twitch at the side of his mouth. A long moment passed and he scrubbed his hand over his face (as he was prone to do in times of stress.) When he spoke his voice was quiet and serious, "Boss, I hear ya and yeah, I'm angry. However, I know exactly how Wordy would feel about this and his thoughts on clean hands. However this works out, it will be by the books. I've got it under control." Greg nodded slowly, turned his headset on and spoke to the team. "Let's turn lights and sirens off as we approach the residence. No need to announce our presence."
