Brody replied before Jon could. “Two to three hours, according to the ME, but let me check to make certain I’m right.”
Jon grimaced. “You don’t have to. I may not remember being killed, but I do remember what was said while everyone was standing over my body. It was at least two hours.”
“Plenty of time for the killer to get into your place to steal your laptop.”
“True,” Brody agreed. “We only figured it was beforehand because he might not have wanted to chance it after killing Jon.”
“If it wasn’t an accident and he intended to kill him, I don’t think a little thing like breaking into the apartment, or even using his keys, would have bothered him,” Gene said.
Brody nodded, and then said, “Let’s take a break. My brain’s aching from going over all this and trying to figure out what’s important and what isn’t.”
Van laughed. “Wuss. We do it every time we research a case.”
“All in one sitting?”
“Well…no.”
