Chapter 767 Case Closed
This guy’s acting skills are not very good. Jack actually saw a bit of curiosity in Pete de Leon’s eyes. He looked better than Kenneth Sigbee, who opened the cafe before. Like an innocent person.
If the basic evidence hadn't been solid at this moment, even he would have thought that this guy was really innocent.
“Do you remember this person?” Jubal pulled out a photo and put it in front of him. “Kerry McMay, at that time he had not become addicted to drugs, he was just a 20-year-old A young man of 20 years old, who is enthusiastic, kind and willing to give, wants to help this unfortunate sick child like you.”
You must know that bone marrow donation is much more risky than blood donation, and it requires local treatment during the process. Anesthesia, considering that Kerry McMay was addicted to drugs, it is difficult not to suspect that there is some connection between the two.
In a large Eastern country on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, most healthy people will never be exposed to narcotic drugs in their lives. Even if a considerable proportion of people are born with a physical constitution that is sensitive to such things, they can survive with the closest drugs available through general channels. Just some cough syrup.
In the United States, after a person has experienced the sensation caused by narcotic drugs, driven by curiosity, it is as easy to get similar drugs and experience them again as to go out and buy a pack of cigarettes. .
Of course this is just Jack's speculation without evidence. At the same time, the conversation in the interrogation room continued, and Aubrey was showing the document that Jack printed out and brought back from CSI to Pete. In front of De Leon.
“It is this bone marrow transplant that allows you to have Kerry McMay’s DNA in your body. This phenomenon is called genetic chimerism, and the process is gradual.
Three years ago, it was your first time committing a crime, so you didn't have much experience, right? You left your semen in the victim's body, but the DNA test told us that the murderer was Kerry McMay, and he was imprisoned. In jail.”
Jubal placed a photo of the victim in front of him, "Remember her? Kathy Seaton, Kerry McMay was convicted of killing her."
Pete DeLeon Zhang He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, Jubal threw out four more photos of the victims, "If you stop from now on, we may never find out that there is a problem.
But you endure it. Can’t help it, you haven’t committed a crime for three years, just because you injured your back at work. It has been very hard for you to endure it for three years, right?”
Jubal tapped his fingers on these photos. , "You must have known about McMay's imprisonment and that you had a lucky escape, so you learned your lesson and became more cautious after your injuries improved.
You thought of tying the body to a heavy object and sinking it The lake water will even dispose of the clothes beforehand and clean the traces on the body, because you know you can’t make another mistake.”
"But you don't know that in addition to your blood and semen, the cells on your skin are also gradually occupied by McMay's DNA. We still found DNA evidence.
Drag a corpse late at night Walking through the woods must be difficult for you with an injury on your back, right? Or maybe the sound of the garter snake frightened you, causing you to leave the body in the stream and run away."
< br>Jubal’s voice was emotionless, but every word that came out of his mouth was like a heavy hammer hitting Pete de Leon’s heart.
He struggled to maintain a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of panic, because every guess Jubal made was accurate, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
“We found the same DNA as three years ago, but McMay has been locked up in prison. It is impossible for him to kill these women, so there is only one person left in the world who might do this. That’s you.”
After Jubal finished speaking, he put his hands on the table and stared directly into Pete De Leon's eyes.
After a moment of silence, Pete DeLeon smiled again on his face, "This is so ridiculous. I don't understand what you are talking about at all. Why should I kill these women."
Aubrey sat down opposite him, picked up a piece of paper and read expressionlessly, "Your father has been arrested many times for physical assault and domestic violence. According to this police report, when you were ten When he was 2 years old, he beat your mother into coma in front of you.
One of the police exhibits was a roll of No. 14 wire, which was used to tie your mother up as we speak. At this moment, there is a psychologist next door watching all this, and he can connect the two with a lot of professional terms." The smile gradually disappeared from Pete De Leon's face, and the words in his mouth became stuttered. Baba got up and said, "I, I have not. I have never killed anyone. I can't. I can't. In short, this is all nonsense.
I mean, you are slandering, it is too offensive, that’s it, I think I need it.”
At this time, the door of the interrogation room was knocked, and then someone pushed it open, Jiejie and Hannah walked in.
Hannah held an evidence bag in her hand, "I think you need to see these before calling a lawyer. We just searched your apartment and found these. "As she spoke, she handed the evidence bag to Jubal.
"There are five rings in it. We haven't had time to find the family members to identify them, but the wedding dates on four of them are the same as the wedding dates of the four deceased people. , and one with the last name engraved on it, Sidon. "
"Kathy Seton, your first victim. "Jubal threw the evidence bag in front of Pete De Leon, with a coldness in his voice.
The evidence was conclusive, and it no longer mattered whether Pete de Leon admitted it. As soon as he left the interrogation room, Jubal couldn't wait to contact the prosecutor.
Not to prosecute that guy immediately, but to reverse the case for Kerry McMay. The judicial process takes time, especially when it involves the retrial of an old case like this.
It will take at least a few weeks for McMay to leave prison, but the outcome has been determined. Whether he will obtain some compensation through prosecution or negotiation is another story.
The next night, Jack officially opened the kitchen in the new office and cooked several special dishes. A group of FBI and two NYPD detectives, plus a well-known writer and his daughter, gathered together to cook Had a small celebration party.
Aubrey is also a wealthy man with a net worth no less than that of Cassel. Both the appearance and the amount of food he eats do not match his status. He even eats the preserved egg and tofu that most people stay away from. Half a plate satisfies someone's vanity as a chef.
Jubal looked at the slightly turbid liquid in the cup with a sad face. The faint smell of alcohol in it made him feel a little heady.
This is fermented glutinous rice made by Jack himself. After the steamed glutinous rice is fermented, some osmanthus essence is added and then simply filtered. The remaining solid part is fermented glutinous rice. As an after-dinner dessert, osmanthus fermented glutinous rice dumplings are very popular with this group. Welcome from America.
As a by-product of fermented rice wine, the sweet rice wine with the flavor of osmanthus and the slightest hint of wine in the cup has become someone's test.
“Don’t worry, the alcohol content here is even less than 1%. You can’t find similar drinks in New York except here.”
This is really not Jack’s bragging, it’s a Chinese restaurant You can indeed find fermented glutinous rice balls here, but this kind of sweet rice wine will turn sour if its shelf life is no more than two days. I have never seen anyone specifically selling it.
"What I'm most fortunate about is that I didn't ruin my partner's career." Jubal hesitated again and again, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, smacking his lips and then he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had let go of a knot in his heart.
"You know? When I saw McMay again in prison today, he actually cried and said thank you to me. He said he never thought that the person who came to save him would be me."
Jack shrugged and gave Aubrey a large piece of rock candy elbow. It felt so good to feed this guy. It was like filling the trough of the pig pen with his front feet and getting licked from the inside of his back feet. It feels clean and refreshing.
"From a good point of view, he has at least successfully given up his drug addiction after three years in prison, hasn't he?" Jack resisted the urge to pat the pig's head and tried to relieve Zhu from another angle. Barr's guilt.
