Chapter 38

It had taken him some time to track the boys down; he couldn’t exactly ask Jeremy for their names after all. Nor did he wish to punish the innocent, enough of that had occurred through the years. His interactions with Joey had made him realize that he had been wrong to hurt any of the children, the truly innocent. Worse he had allowed Red to visit horrors upon them no child should ever experience. Alex wasn’t sure what he would have done if the police hadn’t been waiting for them outside the Hardy’s home. Would he have allowed Red to visit those same horrors on Joey or would he have said enough?
He watched the boys for several days, following them as closely as he dared, listening to their conversations. It didn’t take long to determine which of the three had been the worst offender; Alex was watching him now. He knew the boy would separate from his friends soon and head home, alone now that one of his partners in crime had been grounded.
Alex had been surprised to discover that the Cooper boy’s father had refused to ignore his son’s behavior. He was actually considering allowing the boy to escape the fate planned for his friends, boys whose fathers had denied the possibility of their children being so cruel or dismissed it with the tired phrase boys will be boys. They seemed to believe that Joey should grow a thicker skin, one even going so far as to claim that maybe if the boy wasn’t such a sissy he wouldn’t have been targeted. It wasn’t a coincidence that it was the son of that same man he followed now.
"Chief I think we may have a problem," Con swept the warehouse his gaze taking in the crime scene in front of him.
Collig sat up straight, his hand tightening on the phone he held. Con Riley didn’t spook easy, from the tone of his voice he was spooked now. "What have you got?"
"You remember the two boys found during the summer?"
"Shit, are you telling me we’ve got more?" Ezra prayed the answer would be no. He had a feeling he was about to be disappointed.
"Teenage boy bludgeoned to death but this one is nude and…" Con swallowed the bile. When he had first seen the boy Con had been forced to run outside where he was promptly sick. No wonder the security guard who had first found the kid was hysterical when calling 911. Con had seen plenty of things in his years on the force. The violence and depravity one person could inflict on another would surprise most of the public. None of his previous experience had prepared him for the sight that met him inside the warehouse.
"And?" Collig prompted.
"There’s a, I think it’s a dildo, the thing is huge."
Ezra paled, "You’re telling me the boy was sodomized?"
"Looks that way."
"So why do you think this is connected to the other two boys? Neither of them was sexually assaulted."
"I know Chief, but it’s the same warehouse and I’m pretty sure this one was beaten to death too. The only thing that doesn’t make sense, besides the sexual assault is that none of the boys look alike."
"Well let’s hope you’re wrong about them being connected. Have you called Forensics yet? Homicide?"
"Yes sir, I called them first thing. But if I’m right we may need to contact the FBI." Con winced, holding the phone away from his ear. Collig hated calling the Feds; they tended to run roughshod over the local force, treating them as if they didn’t have two brain cells between them. The moment his Chief stopped cursing Con put the phone to his ear, "Sir?"
Ezra sighed, no matter how much he disliked the Feebies, catching the nut case killing children was more important. "You tell Forensics and the detectives to go over the scene with a fine tooth comb. If we do have a serial killer on our hands we can’t afford any screw ups."
"I’ll make sure they get the message Chief."
"Good man. I’ll send some more officers down to help you keep the news vultures away from the scene."
Con nodded. "Probably a good idea, they’ll probably show up soon. Forensics just pulled up Chief."
"Alright, keep me updated." Ezra scrubbed a hand over his face. If there was one thing he hated it was sickos that preyed on children. No matter how many years he lived, no matter the number of cases he dealt with or read about, Ezra didn’t think he would ever understand the mindset of those who did such things. If he was honest he didn’t want to understand the workings of their minds. As far as he was concerned every last one of them should be taken out back of the police station and shot like a rabid dog.
Unfortunately the shrinks and do-gooders kept insisting the sickness could be treated, that these men could be rehabilitated. They were fooling themselves; unfortunately it would be innocent children who paid the price for their mistake. Maybe they’d get lucky and this one would decide to shoot it out when they caught up with him. Ezra didn’t allow himself to consider the possibility that they wouldn’t catch the bastard.
Alex stood in the gathering crowd, watching the activity around the warehouse. Dressed as a dock worker and with a beard and mustache he would be impossible to recognize. It was unfortunate that he couldn’t get close enough to hear everything that was being said but one couldn’t have everything. Alex wondered what the boy’s father would think when he heard his son begging for mercy. Would he think him a sissy? Perhaps he would be relieved to be rid of such a weak child. At the end Billy boy had been sobbing for his mother.
Alex stuck his hand in his pocket, running his fingers over the tape that contained Billy’s last words. One day soon he would send it to Billy’s father. The man should know how his son had faced death after all. Given the elder Dierksen’s attitude towards Joey he suspected the man would be embarrassed to know his own son had proven to be weak and helpless. Yes, he would make a copy of the tape, edited of course, and send it to the father who had raised his son to be a bullying coward.
