He had witnessed the event. "It's that simple. He shot her...she was....very...she was very...pretty." Sergeant Lucas collected himself. Or so we thought. His eyes welled up with emotion. He glanced at Chief Graham. .."..and then he...after a very brief and...very........... quiet....argument," Sergeant Lucas continued in an uncollected tone. "There was an argument. An argument that nearly nobody - nobody - witnessed or in any way took seriously.... Why would we?" The young sergeant took another breath and pressed ahead with his story. "He stood there.

Lucas repeated. Chief Graham nodded toward Lucas to continue. Lucas continued as ordered.
