Sure. So they found him. Thats what happened. They wanted that recorder. They found him and they killed him. That damned trailer. Neither of us went out there very often. There are snakes and rats from the river on the west side of it and you never knew who might come along at night. Dave always brought a rifle and a couple of handguns but I still didnt feel safe. Im not sure he did either.’ Yeah. He works at some big muckety-muck company in the city. Jerry said they gave out big bonuses to everybody. Roy Blankenship had confided in Devine about his wifes affair. And Blankenship knew that Ken Hawkins was the one screwing his wife; he had told Devine about it. After Blankenships death, Devine had gotten access to the forensic records via a buddy of his in CID. That was when he had learned a lot about vertical versus inverted ligature marks.
