“Juan, we want to know why you were there, do you know who tied you up?”

“No, I- I was there because I was told to meet up with someone”

“Told by who?” Richard says softly

“Jake, a drug dealer from the area, I'm from two roads down the hill, I have a wife and kids I-” The man started stuttering fast like he was nervous. 

“Ok” I say, writing down that information in my notebook. 

“Jake is it? Did he mention something strange or was acting strangely” I ask Juan because I need more information. 

“Yeah, he was bragging about a kidnap and I told him that I wasn't gonna get involved you feel me? I already did my years, I'm clean, I'm starting new, man” He starts whimpering to us, almost begging us. 

“Can we talk in private?” Richard asks me lowering his voice next to me

“Yeah”

We close the door behind us but still being able to look at the man from the double sided mirror

“I don't think he has anything to do with all this”

“Yeah me neither” I responded back to Richard. 

The both of us tilt our heads to look at Juan who looks like he's praying. After that we re-entered the room once again to tell Him he's out of the suspects list and if he gets any information on this drug dealer to let us know as fast as possible.

Juan leaves and we get back to the office to discuss the information. 

“Once again and we have nothing” Richard says while putting his hand over his black hair. 

‘I mean we do have this new suspect, we need to find more information about this drug dealer and why was the ip address tracked to there.
