[Speaking privately]
Well. Hard to miss the irony of this situation.
[In monotone] Senator Bracken, do you have any enemies? Is there anyone that you can think of that would like to kill you?
I get threatening letters and e-mails all the time, comes with the office. My chief of staff keeps a file.
Anyone with a legitimate claim?
A man doesn’t get to my position with upsetting people along the way. Most of them aren’t crazy enough to wanna try to kill me. Present company excluded.
[Sitting down] You know, Senator, I’m not the one that you should be worried about right now.
It’s just us here, Detective. A shooter on the loose, me in the crosshairs? Must be a dream come true for you.
In my dreams, I’m the one that gets to pull the trigger. But you know what? If you’re not comfortable with me leading this investigation, you’re welcome to step outside and tell everyone why.
[Bracken settles back]
Well, then I guess we’re stuck with each other. So, then let me make one thing clear. This man killed Melanie Rogers, and when someone commits murder, whoever he is, Senator, I will bring him to justice. No matter how long it takes.
