Jordan Voight: Teenage Years

Set Free

Peter and Laura sat across from Jordan and Hank, both father and daughter were confused. What new information did they on Daman's murder? The teen knew her father had done it but who is now being blamed for it? Under the table Jordan had taken a hold of her father's hand gripping it tightly.

"So we know who killed Damian". Laura said.

"Who did it?" Jordan asked.

Hank was also very curious to know this, he had an idea that is team was somehow behind this. The older Sergeant had a very well reliable team if it was them who gave this information, he had complete faith in them.

Peter slid over a picture of a guy and spoke. "This is Darryl Jacobs, a known rival of Damian. He caught Damian selling on his turf and got rid of him".

Both the father and daughter were relieved, Jordan wasn't being charged with murder.

"So that's it then?" Hank asked.

"Not quite. One more thing, Jordan how did you Damian was dead?" Laura says to the teen.

"I overheard my dad talking about it to someone". Jordan replies.

"Do you remember who it was?"

"No".

"That'll be all". Peter stated.

"Before we go, Peter, you got a second to talk". Jordan says.

"Of course".

Hank didn't protest he trusted Peter and a few others he knew nothing would happen. Peter and the fifteen-year-old left the room going somewhere private to talk, they went back to an office and shut the door.

"What's up Jo". Peter started.

" How'd you know I didn't do it? When'd you know it wasn't me?" Jordan asked.

"I always knew it wasn't you, you're confession sounded forced. Besides you would never resort to murder no matter how angry you are".

"Let me guess, either Antonio told you that or my dad did".

" We knew all along it wasn't you, we were surprised you confessed though".

"I didn't wanna let anyone go to jail for something that was my fault".

" What happened wasn't your fault".

"It took me a long time to finally convince myself that it wasn't my fault and now it was brought up again. It was my fault, if I hadn't gone to that party or if I had stayed with Adam and Kim then it wouldn't have happened". She swallowed a lump in her throat. "After everything, I went through after losing my brother, one thing I learned is you don't turn your back on family even if they do it to you. I never thought I could ever feel that kind of pain in my life, I was just angry. Pissed. I hated everyone, my dad, my family, myself. You probably read some of my files, my mom died when I was a baby and when Justin died my whole world fell apart. It all came down crashing down like a ton of bricks, I never got to grieve my mom and when he died I grieved both of them but then...I don't know what happened. I let all that anger, grief, all of that consume me, I turned into a completely different person, I didn't know who I was anymore. As much as I hated everyone they never gave up on me, no matter what I did or said they forgave me".

"That's what family does".

" I turned to the bottle, a knife, and a few pills and after everything, I've done and said they can still somehow look me in the eye".

"As you said, family doesn't turn their backs on you even when you do it to them. You're father and everyone else fought to get you back and they did. Jo if you ever need help or just anyone to talk to I'm here. All of us are here for you".
