" Why were you trying to break into a damn jail ? ," Nate Jacks snorted as he stood behind Jeff Kendall in another small cramped room. Jeff sat beside his lawyer Ethan Stone who leaned over to whisper in his client's ear. " After all , most people trying to break out not in. "
Jeff rolled his eyes. " I was not breaking into anywhere. I was outside the building watching it. "
Vincent Fisherman laughed rudely. " Right. Why were you watching the jail? The jail where the woman who injured your little brother and killed your daddy was in. Were you mad , Jeffy boy ? I mean, she turned your brother into an useless cripple. He was a track star , right? Had to suck? "
Ethan said sternly," Do you have a legitimate question, Detective, or do you just want to be offensive for fun and games? "
Vincent shook his head. " The question is why was he watching the jail? "
Jeff sighed. " I wanted to see her. But I couldn't figure how to get in there. So I just hung around out front. It was just a few minutes really. Then I heard a cop yelling at me and I took off. He tried to chase me but I'm a quarterback. Nobody catches me. "
" Nobody catches you," Jacks said with a smirk. " Nobody catches you yet. Why did you try to get in her hospital room? "
Jeff put his hands on the scarred wooden table and leaned forward. " Look. I hated her. But I didn't hurt her. I wanted to talk to her. Let her realize what she was doing to Alan and my mother. What she did to my father. My father was an ass but he didn't deserve to die like that. I didn't go in the room though. And , I have not been back to see her. "
Vincent said roughly," So you just wanted to talk to her? You wanted to talk to a woman in a coma? Do we look stupid? What did you really want to do? And at the jail were you really trying to get in ? Or leaving after strangling and hanging Dodie Angeletti ! "
Ethan stood up abruptly and motioned up Jeff who stood as well. Then he said,"We are done here. My client has answered your questions. It's not against the law to watch a jail or visit a patient in the hospital. You have nothing on this hardworking good boy from an excellent family. So we are leaving. Any more questions please call my office and make an appointment. Good day to you. "
