"We really have a good motion for it..He knows it." said Beverly.
"I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but you know Judges and this one in particular hate to do that." said Nelson, who was mentally prepared to go to trial.
"I know you're right..but let's hope you're wrong Nelson..I'm ready to get on with my life..I feel like I've been in prison for seven long years."said Melvin.
''Me too!"said Michelle, who had met him and started dating him shortly after his wife and Vic Bailey ran off together and vanished.. He was legally seperated at the time.
''Let's think positive." said Josie.
"Yes." said Bresha, always hopeful.
I looked around the room...at who was there and who was missing.
Lieutenant Tragg was there ,looking around....and already in a testy mood...
Judge Michael King walked in...
"Good Morning everyone...I have a bit of bad news....Last Night Special Prosecutor Peter Giffords was arrested by Homicide Detectives and charged with the murder of a local woman...And in addition to that, Detectives from Boston are here talking to him about two additional murders from four years ago and six years ago...I have known this young man for years and I can't imagine him being caught up in something like this...At any rate...I am still trying to decide if I should drop all charges or precede with the case... We'll be getting a new ADA to look at the particulars of this case and I will be calling you back in about a week..I am so sorry about this development..." he said..
"Something about him always creeped me out from day one."said Olivia.
"We get a break....More time to prepare for trial."said Nelson..
"Yeah but with what? We've exhausted all of our avenues.."said Josie.
I was certain I knew who had killed Lena and who might be responsible for the mysterious disapearences of Victor Bailey and Helen Brooks.
"Looks are deceiving Lieutenant." said Olivia with a smile.
"He's so damn smug...I'd like to see that smug look washed off his face."said Michelle Young..
"Me too Mrs. Brooks, Me too!" said Beverly...
"They've got a ton of evidence against you...DNA taken from semen left at the scene matches your DNA, which they got off of saliva ,taken from a coffee cup you tossed in the trash...They had it checked through an independent DNA lab, The FBI lab at Quantico and our own DNA lab here, plus it's a match to DNA checked in Boston by the Boston P.D. They traced your phony credit card and bank account to you that used to order her from the Escort service...and they have your car on the traffic cam leaving the scene. I'd try to argue temporary insanity, but they got two other cases...in Boston...you're not leaving me with much here." said Attorney Bill Gibbs.
"I'll try guilty by insanity plea and see if I can get you put in a mental hospital, rather than prison."said his attorney.
"Thank you...Thank you..." said soon to be former special prosecutor, Peter Gifford...admitted killer of three women..
"Well guys, we bit the bullet anyway....Unless you all have any pending court cases.....You are free to go...I'll see you all in oh about three days.." said Olivia.
''Oh wow, this is great, I've got some grocery shopping to do and some laundry to catch up on.and sleep as well." said Josie.
and gave me a slow, soft, sweet kiss...
I watched her walk up the stairs and marveled at my good fortune..
It was 2:30 pm...All of our friends were still at work...We had closed our doors for the day, the next three days and the weekend..
"Oh ,I'm just soooo glad I can take my clothes off and relax.."said Olivia, as I unzippered her and helped her out of her clothes.
"I'm glad you're taking them off too. Ummmmmmmmm hmmmmmmm.."I smiled as I began to undress..
"Oh my god...You are so aroused...You couldn't keep your hands off of me or from under my skirt the entire time we were in court.." laughed Olivia as she slipped out of her bra and panties..
Olivia gasped...Oh My God...DONNIE RAYY!!!....Ouuuuu...you are huge!!!.Did you get bigger?" she exclaimed...as I unhooked her bra and began sucking on her breasts.....
I didn't answer...She always asked me that!
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh DONNIE RAY!....ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." she moaned.
"You really like this pair huh? Got them from Panty's Galore" she joked..
"Ohhh myyyyy." I said.
"I thought he was a bit odd...but never thought he was that troubled." I said.
''Did you know he had an almost perfect court record?? He'd never lost a case.. People who knew him said he was brilliant." said Olivia, reading the morning news on her laptop..
"Yeah, well he was losing this one and about to lose badly.." said Beverly..
"He was frustrated a lot with us...After we bested him in court and then got his subpeona circumvented he seemed to go ballistic." said Nelson..
"They found files on all of us in his office..I think he had a problem with women talking back to him, besting him in any way.." said Josie.
"Gee Thanks Bree." said Nelson, laughing..
"I like the way her mind works.." I said, smiling...
''Arthur ,how are you?"said Assistant District Attorney April Taylor, fresh off her 16th straight courthouse win since losing badly to us.
"You know...I said I never wanted to work another case with you and my ex again...and I meant that ! I didn't say I didn't want to see you." she said.. "You should stop by sometimes....you know...For Coffee!" she said and winked..
"You guys really lucked out...Seems like our fair haired Special Prosecutor is some kind of homicidal maniac...but another ADA will be on the case...and then we'll see how you guys fare...Always talking about I bring in weak cases..Looks like you guys have a weak defense." said Lt. Tragg.
And in "The Fishbowl" , the nickname Detectives gave the interrogation room...
Special Prosecutor Pete Gifford sits sweating profusely with his attorney...
"If I plead guilty can I...Can I avoid the death penalty??"asked Peter Gifford.
II-
We were back at our Office/Duplex
We were all sitting around the conference room table.
"Yesss, me too, thank you Ms. Liv." said Bresha..as both young ladies gathered their things and left...
"That goes for you too Alfreda..Enjoy your three days and your long weekend!" said Olivia.''Who would have thought you'd be the best boss I ever had....Love ya!" said Alfreda, kissing Olivia on the cheek..
Olivia looked at me..
Beverly already had Nelson by the hand, leading him up the stairs.....
After they were all gone... I said.
"I have an idea how to solve this case and save you guys some time in court.." I said..
"It cannnn wait , can't it?" she whispered in my ear seductively..
"Of course.." I said..
''Good, I'll see you upstairs."she said and smiled and walked up the stairs to our floor.."I'm glad you're taking them off too. Ummmmmmmmm hmmmmmmm.."I smiled as I began to undress..
and watched her undress.
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuu!...OH MY GODDDDD!" I moaned..looking at her panties as she undressed.
Olivia gasped...Oh My God...DONNIE RAYY!!!....Ouuuuu...you are huge!!!.Did you get bigger?" she exclaimed...as I unhooked her bra and began sucking on her breasts.....
I didn't answer...She always asked me that!
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh DONNIE RAY!....ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." she moaned.
"You really like this pair huh? Got them from Panty's Galore" she joked..
"Ohhh myyyyy." I said.
"Don't get too excited.." she whispered.
I thrusted my tongue practically down her throat and while squeezing one breast with my hand... and I lifted her up and positioned her on me as I entered her and began thrusting away...
"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD, OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HOOO HOOO HOOO HOOO, OH MY GODDDD YOU ARE ALL UP IN THIS!!!! UMMMMMMM!!!!!" she screamed as I continued to thrust , harder and feverishly more.....
A HALF HOUR slowly oozed by...I felt so good...I wasn't even close to stopping..
"Ouuuu husband you are doing the damn thing...UMMMMMM" she said..
I laid her across her bed , a few minutes later and I entered her softly and gently and began to stroke her softly and slowly....She moaned and put her arms around my neck and drew me closer to her..I kissed her neck, between her breasts, her cheeks....She continued to kiss my lips and my ears and my chest...
"Ohhh My God...I can't believe how good this feels!" she moaned..
"Me neither!" I said.
She wrapped her legs around my waste and we began to move in a slow, yet deliberate rhythm for quite some time...She matched me thrust for thrust and even kissed my shoulder at one point...She was so soft...so moist and smelled so good...I was losing my mind....She was shaking and looking like she was on the verge of crying the entire time.......
"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...OHHH MY GOODNESS...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she moaned loudly ,obviously not caring who heard us....
We made sweet passionate and intense love like this for EIGHT TO NINE HOURS.. Olivia began to shake and gyrate and tears began to stream down her face again....I was surprised at how passionate she still was ...
"It's sooooooooooooooo goooddd...Oh my godddddddddddddd it's soooooo gooood Oh my Goddd Donnie Ray....ohhhhh don't stoppp, don't stopp...don't ever stop...ouuuuuuuuuuuu" she screamed as I mounted her from behind on the floor of our bedroom..
"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..
OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" she screamed...
I came like a gusher....
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!" I moaned...
She smiled....Her mouth was wide open as she stared at me...
"Wow! THAT WAS AWESOME...WOW! OUUU HUSBAND...YOU WERE JUST SHOWING OFF IN THIS BED!! MYYYY GOOODNESS!" she exclaimed....
I smiled and gently felt her breasts...I gently kissed both of them....She leaned over and kissed me again..
"You were so..so intense....You made me cum like four times..OUUUUUUU!." she smiled..she was still shaking as she continued to kiss me...
She gave me a nice sloppy, wet kiss....I pulled her to me and kissed her too..She felt my still very hard and engorged penis...Her mouth opened wide..
"Damnnnn, I'm still horny"..I whispered...
"Ouuuuuuu...Me too!.You like that Black tightMini skirt I had on today..didn't you?...Do I have any other skirts that turn you on as much?"she laughed as we continued kissing and I mounted her once again...
I thrusted my tongue practically down her throat and while squeezing one breast with my hand... and I lifted her up and positioned her on me as I entered her and began thrusting away...
"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOD, OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HOOO HOOO HOOO HOOO, OH MY GODDDD YOU ARE ALL UP IN THIS!!!! UMMMMMMM!!!!!" she screamed as I continued to thrust , harder and feverishly more.....
A HALF HOUR slowly oozed by...I felt so good...I wasn't even close to stopping..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..
OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" she screamed...
I came like a gusher....
"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!" I moaned...
She smiled....Her mouth was wide open as she stared at me...
"Wow! THAT WAS AWESOME...WOW! OUUU HUSBAND...YOU WERE JUST SHOWING OFF IN THIS BED!! MYYYY GOOODNESS!" she exclaimed....

"Too many to name!" I said..
"Oh My goodness!!!! DONNIE RAY!!!! OUUUUUUUUU!" she replied smiling and slowly kissing me as I entered her again...She was so warm,so moist...so inviting..
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Donnie Ray...ohhhh my goddd!..Ouuuuuuuu..." she cried out...as the bed began to squeak....The headboard slammed against the wall....She stared at me almost in disbelief.....
Another TWO TO THREE HOURS of sweet and tender lovemaking continued....We were both going to be very tired tomorrow ...but neither of us cared at the moment...Not like we had to be anywhere at any time..
She began to blow softly in my ear ,in between soft , wet kisses..which turned me on even more...and within twenty minutes... I exploded like a gusher ...Holding her tightly....Her body shook a little too..Tears ran down the side of her face..her body began shaking and her head turned from side to side...
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...myyy goodnessss.." she exclaimed...still shaking like a church woman testifying......
We continued to hold each other for a few minutes....
"You okay?" I asked...
"I'm just fine...Ummmmmmmm yesssssssssss...OHHHHHH!!" she said, smiling serenely....
She smiled...
This was a nice stress buster after the day we had..
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..Ohhhhhh my goddddddd! YESSSSSSSSS!" he moaned...
"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!"she moaned softly......
"TALK TO ME BABY...DO YOU LOVE ME?" she asked.
"YES!!! YES...OH YESSSSS!"moaned NELSON..who didn't know if he was coming or going...
"Because I LOVE YOUUUUU TOOO!!! OUUUUUUUUUUU!!! .I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! YOU DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND! OHHHHHHHHHH!!!" she cooed...and once again got emotional and began to cry as Nelson thrusted faster...
EIGHT TO NINE HOURS SLIPPED BY!
"You are just showing off...Just showing off in this bed...."she said..
"Ohhhhhhhhh you are driving me crazy.." he moaned...
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! You like it Husband?" she cooed loudly..
"Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss…you know I do...Ohhhh lawdddd!" he moaned in his deep baritone..
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh NELSON….ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." she moaned.
She had already had three or four very intense orgasms that left her in tears.....And Nelson as usual showed no signs of stopping..
She blew softly into his ear..and played in his hair...
THREE TO FOUR MORE HOURS and a half went by before Nelson began to come with wild abandon as did Beverly.. holding on to him for dear life....riding him softly and slowly...
"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" she moaned..both of her legs shaking and her head turning from side to side...she found herself getting emotional and crying again..
After a short pause, Nelson began to make love to Beverly again ,slowly, tenderly, kissing her cheeks and hugging her gently....
ANOTHER TWO HOURS drifted by in which she had a very intense orgasm.....and looked up at him in amazement...at both his stamina and his excitement..as he came like a river....
He found himself more satisfied than he had been in awhile... He turned over and lay on his back with a big grin on his face...
"Ummmmmmm stop looking so...so satisfied " she said.
But he was satisfied...He pinched himself...He was actually married to Beverly and making love to her on a regular basis...The stuff dreams had been made of..
"Oh My goodness!!!! DONNIE RAY!!!! OUUUUUUUUU!" she replied smiling and slowly kissing me as I entered her again...She was so warm,so moist...so inviting..
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Donnie Ray...ohhhh my goddd!..Ouuuuuuuu..." she cried out...as the bed began to squeak....The headboard slammed against the wall....She stared at me almost in disbelief.....

This was a nice stress buster after the day we had..
Downstairs from us...
Beverly motioned to her husband ,Nelson...
"Come here...Unzip my skirt..Take my clothes off" she said playfully...
"Ohhhh my god..Those are pretty panties", Nelson exclaimed...
He unzipperd her skirt and she slipped her top off...His eyes nearly bulged out of his head...
"I'm glad you like them...You bought these for me from AGENT PROVACATIVE....Remember?" she giggled...
"Come here...Unzip my skirt..Take my clothes off" she said playfully...

"I'm glad you like them...You bought these for me from AGENT PROVACATIVE....Remember?" she giggled...
"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, I REMEMBER!" said Nelson..
"You're so silly.." Beverly giggled.
Beverly giggled..She loved getting Nelson hot and horny...She was wearing a Dark Blue bra and a matching pair of Dark Blue Bikini panties..Nelson nearly fainted when she shimmied out of her skirt..and took her blouse off..
He took his clothes off slowly and just stared at her..
She smothered him with wet ,sloppy kisses...Kisses that were driving him to near delirium!!!

"OH MY GODDDD NELSON, YOU ARE HUGE!!! I'M ABOUT TO GET IT, AINT I?" she giggled..
"YESSSSSSSSS!" was all he could manage to say as she softly stroked him...
Nelson got to do what he had been daydreaming about all morning in court, make love to Beverly.
she saw the way he was staring at her in court and just smiled.. With all of the pretty women around him such as Josie and Bresha and even her Aunt...It was nice to know that she captured Nelson's full attention.
"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" he moaned..
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…talk to me daddy, is it good?" she cooed softly as the bed began to squeak and the headboard began to rattle..
"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" he moaned..
"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…talk to me daddy, is it good?" she cooed softly as the bed began to squeak and the headboard began to rattle..

But he was satisfied...He pinched himself...He was actually married to Beverly and making love to her on a regular basis...The stuff dreams had been made of..
In the holding facility , known as "The Cooler" Guards were shocked to find..
The lifeless body of Special Prosecutor, Peter Giffords...
He had pleaded guilty to raping and strangling three young women...including a prostitute in Philadelphia, a few days before..The shame of what he'd done was too much for him...He chose to take his own life instead...He was a troubled, troubled man...
III-
FIVE DAYS LATER-
We were riding the train to town again...Of course we had all heard about Special Prosecutor Pete Gifford's suicide over the weekend... after he had pleaded guilty to murdering the prostitute here and two other women in Boston...One four years ago and the other six years ago...
''Did you know he had an almost perfect court record?? He'd never lost a case.. People who knew him said he was brilliant." said Olivia, reading the morning news on her laptop..
"He was frustrated a lot with us...After we bested him in court and then got his subpeona circumvented he seemed to go ballistic." said Nelson..
"They found files on all of us in his office..I think he had a problem with women talking back to him, besting him in any way.." said Josie.
"Yeah, he sexually assaulted that one woman and she got him booted out of prep school and his parents had to settle on his behalf out of court...then that second woman, got him fired from his law firm...He didn't take too kindly to that...and after struggling with us , he killed a surrogate, a black female prostitute...I think she represented us, minus you and Donnie Ray.."said Bree..
"I like the way her mind works.." I said, smiling...
In the hallway of the courthouse.. Lt. Tragg ran into a familliar figure..
''April!!! How are you?" asked Lt. Tragg... He hadn't seen her in over a month , after he and her ex-husband had goofed up yet another case..She had walked off saying she never wanted to work another case with either of them again..
"I'm great...How ya doin? It's good to see ya." he said..
She kissed him slowly and softly...
"You always did like coffee, late at night.." she whispered...
"VA VA VA VOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!" he said to himself...
He was so aroused at this moment, if she had said the word "panties", he would have exploded....
"Of course...Anything you want baby!" he said, tickled pink and as pleased as punch...
**************************************************************************
She showed her the Slave Key...
''So he is innocent..You said it..I didn't...ARE YOU GUILTY??" asked April...
"The grass doesn't grow on them...." said Beverly...
"Proof positive that bodies are under there..Probably not in coffins or boxes either.."I said.
"Damn, this is like a movie....How long will it take her to figure out she's been tricked and high tail it back here?" asked Nelson.
"I'm saying she knows now..and flew out of Sam Mother's like a bat out of hell." I said.
''And your husband and girlie there are standing on the graves of his mistress, Helen Brooks and the gardener." she said.
"The Gardener????" said Nelson..
"There are two bodies in this second grave?" asked Josie.
''And she had to go, right?" I said.
There were six police cars outside
And his unmarked car with lights flashing... He took her outside and they drove away.....ADA April Taylor drove up....
''Well, this is good news for our client...He's completely exonerated and we didn't have to go to trial."said Josie..
"What a case!! We really lucked out in sooo many ways." said Bresha.
"Great idea...This place gives me the creeps!' said ADA Taylor.
''Me too!" said Beverly..
And I played Mellow Lemon Jelly's latest recording on Alexa for their listening pleasure..
was showing Rockland how to make Martini's..
All four tires blew out !!!! and the car was seen going down and sliding.
She was surprised, who was this white woman calling her..
"Hello" she said.
"Hello Mrs. Bailey....I am Assistant District Attorney April Taylor... I will be prosecuting Melvin Brooks for the murder of your friend, Lena Braithwaite, when his trial begins next week.." she said.
"So? Why are you calling me? Lena wasn't my friend...I hardly knew her."said Marla Bailey...
"Now..Now...That's not true Mrs. Bailey...You and Lena talked a lot and hung out in a bar...We have witnesses who will testify to that and Lena was blackmailing you...Had been for a few years...She showed her the Slave Key...
"She took this off of you...and had it in her possession when she died... Now look..I don't care about this or you...but this obviously means something to you..I think we could make an arrangement...Don't you?" she said.
"You corrupt bitch!! You're willing to prosecute an innocent man and still try to squeeze me..."said Marla Bailey..
"I aint sayin nothin to you." snarled Marla Bailey..
"Meet Me at Sam Mother's Diner and we can talk...business.." said April...
IV-
Sam Mothers Dinner was packed today..
Marla walked into the diner at 2:00 pm, she looked around.. She saw no sign of the white woman she had talked to..
2:30 pm, still no sign... She realized..
"THIS WAS A TRICK!!! MY HOUSE!!" she said and she jumped back into her car and pulled off..
We were at her house in the back....staring at what appeared to me to be graves , not freshly dug, but graves just the same..
where strangely they were the only part of the yard
where grass didn't grow.
"This is creepy Donnie Ray."said Olivia."The grass doesn't grow on them...." said Beverly...
"Proof positive that bodies are under there..Probably not in coffins or boxes either.."I said.
"Damn, this is like a movie....How long will it take her to figure out she's been tricked and high tail it back here?" asked Nelson.
I heard the all too familliar click of a gun... a. 40 caliber..
"Nice Trick...Only it didn't work." said Marla Bailey pointing her pistol at us.
"Oh but it did...put that away...You don't want to do that! You're not going to shoot us.. It's too many of us..Your neighbors would hear...You don't have the room to bury all of us in this yard...Put that away...I'm guessing you killed Lena with that gun didn't you?" I said softly.....She put the gun on safety and passed it to me.. She sighed. I put the gun in a plastic bag and sealed it."Yes..." she said . "And the others...They're right there." she said..
''Others?" asked Beverly.
"My Husband Victor...He's buried right there by your Auntie's foot." said Marla..
Olivia gasped...
"Ohhhhhh!" she said.
"The Gardener????" said Nelson..
"There are two bodies in this second grave?" asked Josie.
staring at her feet...
"I shot my husband and his mistress on the night before Memorial Day, 2014....They actually thought they were going to go away on a vacation...I put both of them in those huge bags you use to put a lot of leaves in...I hauled them down to my car and put them both in my trunk.. I then took bleach and bleached down Victor and Helen's little love nest and cleaned it up spic and span and left...
I hired this Landscaper named Billy, Billy Giles... Lena and I knew him from the bar...I got him to dig the holes and to dump each bag into the hole...By now it had been two days and with the heat, the bodies were beginning to smell...He asked a lot of questions...I told him this was fertilizer...He asked me why didn't I open the bags? Just too many questions..
He talked a lot..Too much..He may have told Lena what I was paying him to do...I called him and told him ,I'd pay him an extra $200.00 and maybe a little extra if he kept his mouth shut.. He came over and I shot him too! and dumped him in the hole with Helen....She finally had a man to sleep with that was all hers now..for eternity...but not my man...
I covered up both holes...but it was the damndest thing...I could never get any grass or anything to grow on these two plots...but there they've been, all three of em, resting peacefully since 2014.." she said just as non-chalant as if she were giving directions to the freeway.
"You took that Slave Key off of the dead, Helen Brooks ankle didn't you?" asked Bresha.
"I did...I liked it....Lena was curious about it...She had seen Helen with Victor, she knew it was hers, she kept asking questions about how I got it and where were Helen and Victor and where was Billy Giles? She knew I had paid him to do a job for me..She wanted to know what it was..She figured out pretty soon that I had disposed of My husband and his mistress and possibly Billy and she began to Blackmail me.. I pawned the Slave Key, when I needed cash....When I couldn't make my payments one month, I gave it to her...Then she discovered your client, Melvin Brooks was getting married and she cooked up some scheme to try and Blackmail him for money too!" said Marla.
''She had to go! I had had enough of her crap...I had no idea she had called him and that he had arrived there some time after I had left. I never meant for him to get caught up in this.." said Marla.
''I know you didn't. That enough Lieutenant?" I said.''That's more than enough.." said Lt. Tragg..
I had been wearing a wire... Everything was recorded on tape.
He handcuffed Marla Bailey...
"Marla Bailey you are under arrest for the murder of Lena Braithewaite, and the murders of Victor Bailey, Helen Brooks and Billy Giles...You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law...You have the right to an attorney, if you do not have an attorney, one will be given to you...Do you understand these rights as I am reading them to you?" he asked.
"Yes." she sighed and held her head down...She surprisingly looked relieved..
"Well you guys...I uh actually uh owe you one..." he said looking at us...He didn't know how to say Thank You!
And his unmarked car with lights flashing... He took her outside and they drove away.....ADA April Taylor drove up....
"Mission Completed Donnie Ray?" she asked, smiling..
"Mission Completed...Thank you for your help." I said.
"This lets our client off the hook...No trial." said Olivia.. "I do feel sorry for her..I feel like that might have been me eventually if I had stayed with Elwood.."sighed Olivia.
"But it wasn't Auntay and you didn't..."said Beverly, putting her arms around Olivia.
"Mission Completed...Thank you for your help." I said.
''We knew if anyone could convince Lt. Tragg to go along with this..You could.." said Nelson...
"This lets our client off the hook...No trial." said Olivia.. "I do feel sorry for her..I feel like that might have been me eventually if I had stayed with Elwood.."sighed Olivia.
"Come On Let's go home guys!" I said.
''Me too!" said Beverly..
As we pulled off, I took one last look at the house...It was nice and serene looking...It didn't betray the horror of it's back yard!
EPILOUGE-
The mummified remains of Victor Bailey, Helen Brooks and Billy Giles, all missing since 2014 were dug up out of Marla Bailey's back yard....
and the bodies were transferred to the morgue....
Marla Bailey confessed to all three murders and to the murder of Lena Braithwaite and was given four life sentences...Lieutenant Tragg was given (and took) credit for cracking his biggest case of the year...Three seven year old murders and a current one.. Never mind the fact that I actually cracked the case and had to trick him into looking into it...
But that's okay...the important thing is that our client, Mellow Lemon Jelly was free and clear and wouldn't have to go on trial..
And back at our place...
It was a celebration..
"Donnie Ray....I can't ever thank you guys enough....for getting me out of that jam..."said Melvin Brooks..
"Thank you!!! I wouldn't dream of it...You're my guests....These other people work here and crash here all the time." she said jokingly....
The four of us laughed... Though what she said was 90 percent true...
"There is nothing for you to do but sit back and enjoy your husband's music , while we get the food together." I said.
Kayla and Josie made the salads..
Olivia, Beverly and Alfreda fried chicken and made corn on the cob..
Bresha prepared Greens and Candied Yams..
Nelson, was the only male cooking, prepared his famous Mac and Cheese..
Paris and Tony supplied Beverages...
and Ray
was showing Rockland how to make Martini's..
it was a celebration...We worked hard..We played even harder...
As for the Slave key, it vanished out of the evidence room...
Lt. Tragg had it...
"I'm gonna place this on April's ankles.." he said as he drove an unmarked police car to her house..
Three of the four hub caps came off as the car roared down the street... The car had to stop and he had to get out and chase the hub caps down, and get back in the car with them, before the car took off again..This time, the fourth hubcap came He had to run and chase that one.."WHAT THE HELL IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR?" he bellowed..
He pulled off again..
"OHHHHH HELLLL!!!" he snarled..
He stood there waiting for a tow..
He looked at the Slave key....
"This thing is a jinx!" he said and he tossed it into a field!
FOR SLC!
