Chapter 14 - The Detective Interrogates Daniel Downtown
By midnight, I received a secure call from Detective Miller at the downtown central police precinct interrogation room.
“We’ve got him on tape confessing to the improvised casting, though he’s still claiming it was a twisted form of home medical care,” Miller said.
“Home medical care? With surgical staples and metal pipes?” I scoffed incredulously over the phone.
“His defense attorney is already trying to spin it as an eccentric marital dispute, but the district attorney isn't buying it.”
“Good. Make sure he stays behind bars without bail; Emily deserves absolute justice and lifelong protection.”

“Don't worry, Doctor. With the evidence from his car and her testimony, he’s not seeing daylight for the next thirty years.”
I hung up the phone, walking back to the intensive care unit where Emily was resting after her successful amputation surgery.
