Jackson strolled into the police station looking around trying to find Jesse. He found a Rookie cop sitting at one of the desk working on a stack of paperwork.

"Excuse me can you tell me where Chief Hubbard is?"

The young cop looked up at him before he could respond to the lawyer's question a female voice interrupted, "Your Chief Hubbard took Officer Monroe out to the Chandler place."

Jackson turned to see Nora Buchanan standing at the door of the interrogation room. He walked over and shook the woman's hand.

"Nora Buchanan it's nice to see you again."

"Jackson I wish these were better circumstances but it's nice to see you as well. I'm glad to know I won't be sparing against you in the courtroom. I will admit I was surprised when I got the call from the Attorney General that they needed a D.A. in Pine Valley. I had heard you were gunning for Liza Colby's job after the mess last year." Nora said.

"Believe me I would love nothing more than to take the lead on this one but this has to be done by the book. I don't want JR getting away because I'm viewed as being biased."

She looked at him confused, "I admit that I haven't tangoed with you in the court room but from what I've heard about your cases other than the Cambias murder case you're above reproach."

"Exactly they could use my past with trying to protect my family as me trying to use shall we say illegal measures to bring JR to justice."

"It was my understanding that Erica Kane and her daughter were both unharmed."

"Um no my daughter was hurt that night."

"I'm sorry Jackson. I didn't realize."

"No it's ok. We've done everything we can to keep the press away from all this. Too many people in this town were either directly hurt by this or indirectly that we're trying to be as quite as possible. It's refreshing to know our efforts have been successful. I heard about your son Matthew how is he doing?"

"Good. He's in a long term rehabilitative facility we're hoping for a complete recovery. Bo is with him now. Listen as much as we both enjoy the small talk neither of us is here for that."

Jackson laughed he had heard about her passion for work and her directness, "No I guess not. What is Jesse doing out at the Chandler's?"

"After a little push from the DA's office he's out there pushing Adam Chandler into pushing his son to regain his memory. But you should know that even if JR can't remember what happened that night Jesse has a Warrant to arrest him. There's enough evidence to charge JR a confession will hurry things along."

Jackson let out a sigh of relief "Thank God he's finally going to be off the streets."

Nora took a seat at the table covered with files, "Any idea who Adam Chandler is going to get to represent his son?"

Jackson shook his head, "The only two attorney's with enough experience to handle this type of case are Liza Colby and Caleb Cooney."

Nora looked at one of her files, "Liza Colby that's Adam's ex-wife correct? Do you think she feels any loyalties to JR?"

"Yes and no. I don't think Liza wants to be anywhere near this case. Her reputation was tarnished last year with the David Hayward murder trial. To take on this case would be career suicide in this town."

"Ok what about this Caleb Cooney?"

"Not a chance," Jackson laughed, "JR and Caleb have been at odds ever since Caleb came down off that mountain."

"I don't suppose we would get luck and he'd settle for a Public Defender?" she watched his head shake, "No I didn't think so either. I wish I knew who they were going to get to represent him it would making prepping for this a whole lot easier."

"I think you'll find out soon enough." Jackson pointed out the window of the interrogation room. Nora turned and watched as Brot and Jesse brought JR into the station. Adam was close behind them talking into his cell phone.

Brot took JR back to be processed. Jesse joined Jackson and Nora in the interrogation room. He held his hand out and greeted the D.A. as the exchanged pleasantries.

"What's the word Jesse?" Jackson asked.

"The doctors were right taking JR back to that night jogged his memories. He remembers what happened the night of the party."

"Did he admit to pulling the trigger and kidnapping his son?" Nora asked.

"His exact words were 'Maybe I'm an angry drunk murder. I killed people' is that enough?"

"Had he been properly Mirandized?"

"No we were asking him questions as a witness as that point he wasn't under arrest nor was he aware that he was a suspect." Jesse explained.

"Ok his lawyer will try and have that thrown out but even without him saying he killed people our case is strong. Now about his bloody hands, did that happen before or after he said he killed people?"

Jesse looked up at the D.A. obviously angry about her insinuations, "What are you trying to say counselor? That my department beat the little son of a bitch up in an effort to extract some form of justice?"

Jackson put a hand on Jesse's shoulder, "Come on now Jesse."

Nora put her hand out, "It's ok Jackson. Listen Chief I'm not here to attack your department but his lawyer is going to ask the same questions even try and use this as a case of an overzealous police department."

Jesse nodded his head, "I'm sorry Ms. Buchanan. JR started punching the wall in anger after he started to remember whatever it is that he did that night."

"Ok make sure he sees a doctor in the morning. After he's processed I'd like for you and I to interview him see what exactly he remembers. Maybe we can get a full confession out of him and save this town the pain of a long drawn out trial."

"I'm sorry but that's not going to happen." They all looked up to find Adam Chandler standing at the door way. "You won't be interviewing my son until his lawyer is here."

Nora stood up in front of the older man showing him she wasn't some push over she knew Adam's reputation for being a bully and wasn't going to let him stop her from getting justice for his son's victims. "I can have a public defender here in an hour."

"A Public Defender?" Adam laughed at her. "His lawyer will be here Monday morning. She's coming in from Port Charles. Perhaps you've heard of Diane Miller?"

They, of course had heard of Diane, everyone knew she was responsible for helping mob boss Sonny Corinthos get away with murder.
