Revenge After Death

Chapter 19

“Here’s surveillance footage from the area near Sunset Alley. Stephanie was last spotted heading toward Sunset Alley.” That was Zion’s way of warning Benson to tell the truth.

Flustered, Benson blurted, “She has the freedom to go wherever she wants! We never made her go there on the 15th!”

“You’re lying!” Zion banged his palm on the table.

As a hot–headed person, Benson replied impatiently, “Michael’s the one behind everything. He’s the one who got us involved in this. If you’ve got questions, ask him.

“I don’t know if he made Stephanie go there on the 15th, but I’ve got alibis to prove that I wasn’t there with them that night. I was out drinking at the Nocturnal and had one too many drinks. I’m sure some of the hostesses there remember.”

Zion glanced at the clock and signaled his colleagues to take Benson away.

“Officer Landon, could Michael have sexually assaulted Stephanie, and then because he was afraid that he’d be exposed, pretended to be the serial killer and killed her…?”

Zion kept mum. He too, had his suspicions about Michael now.

Michael’s patience seemed to be running thin today. “I have the right to remain silent before my lawyer arrives.”
