Once upon a Time

"Anthony Evans and yes, I witnessed the kidnapping of Clarissa Isaiah on the on the 19th of November, 2015." Gabriel nodded for him to go on and so, he continued. 


"I was on my way back from the cemetery. I never visited my son and that is because he wasn't dead. I visited my wife instead. I told my son not to walk too fast, he was the one that really witnessed what went on that day. Before I could get to my son, one of them was already taking her inside their own car." 


"One of them? You said it was only one person that was involved in the kidnapping." Gabriel said to him. 


"I said it because that was what he wanted me to say. The other one threatened the life of my son with a neck to his neck. He was the one that told me to lie so I can save the life of my son." 


"It could be possible that he was frightened by your presence, do you have any idea why he would be?" Gabriel asked.
