He nodded gave him a handshake and left

Jose: yea she was here with her brother the neighbors ain't lying

Cop: alright then did they eat anything?

Jose: why? They crashed?

Cop: something caused the crash the brother was dead before the crash looks like poisoned

Jose stepped back

Cop: and if they were last seen here and you own this house and threw the party it connects to you?

Jose: no it doesn't they were invited by someone else I didn't do shit to them?

Cop: alright then tell me who invited them and who were they hanging out with?

He looked nervously

Cop: better think hard because this is a double homicide

Jose: I don't know who invited them but I can give info on who's selling what and what in this neighborhood where you can find the biggest stash of your career

Cop: oo really? .. well lets do it like this if your gonna tell me that why not tell me who they showed up with? who where they talking to what did they eat because if it was a big thing who else got hit?

jose looked around .. he saw antonios car drive by
