They were all hoping the men on the list who weren’t dead would be able to assist them.
“So no one else worked the night shift with him, but the agent we met last night?” Gene asked, wanting to get that down in the record.
Then again, he could see Ethan’s notebook, and already, he had the names. Someone was being proactive.
The agents there nodded.
“That’s it. Lucas is the only other night shift guy. Neither like the heat, and we don’t have air conditioning here, so they preferred not to sweat. Honestly, once you get accustomedto it, you don’t mind it so much,” offered Agent Del Torez, introducing himself.
Yeah, those were words none of them would ever say to anyone.
Ever.
It was spring, but it was humid as hell.
Checking out Ethan’s list, Gene knew there was only one guy left that they hadn’t talked to yet, and that meant it had to be Agent Miguel Crespo Gonzales.
“What did you work specifically?” Gene asked the last man.
Miguel answered.
“I handle the homicides that Jarod would catch at night. He’d pass them off, and I’d pick them up and run with them. We don’t get a lot of homicides here. The local cops handle more of them. Usually, it’s cases tied to mass shootings from drug running when a boat comes ashore that was shot up.”
That was good to know.
Then Corbin and Will should be able to get some answers.
He hoped.
Del Torez was to the point.
“We think it’s shit that Jarod is dead. I’m pissed about that. The dude was a good guy,” he stated.
All the men agreed.
Yeah, that’s exactly what Ben Crowley had said last night, and Lucas Mayfield.
“We’re sorry for your friend’s death,” Gene admitted. “We’ll make sure he gets justice.”
Oh, they all hoped so, and their faces said one thing. If they didn’t, there would be four men jumping in to make sure it happened.
Gene was going to have to make sure he stayed two steps ahead of these agents, so they weren’t out trying to work this on their own.
