Investigator Avery; he is relentless when it comes to finding out information. He was once on suspension for a six-month period without pay. He found evidence that proved a low life scumbag was 100% guilty of molesting a young boy at a local video arcade.
                  On a technicality, the D.A. got him cleared of all charges. He claimed when Avery found the evidence he didn’t have probable cause and the search warrant wasn’t authorized before he searched the premises. The actual authorization time was listed as three minutes after Todd entered the residence and placed him under arrest. Because of this time discrepancy the judge didn’t allow the evidence to be used in court.
                  It was a big story when it came out and raised a lot of constitutional concerns and questions about law enforcement and the rights of possible criminals. This child molester was totally exonerated of all charges and set free. After this, he had the nerve to call Avery at home to tell him he was going to do it again and rub it in his face.
                  Todd secretly followed the guy when he was off duty and met up with him one night at a local bar. He almost beat him to death and it took six patrons of the establishment to pull Todd away, the pedophile spent three weeks in the intensive care unit at Chicago Memorial. The suspension and the media attention really took a toll on his career. Politically the blemish hurt, because when Todd was interviewed about the incident and the man he almost killed, the press ask if he had any regrets about what he did. Todd was quoted in the papers and on the news saying, “ Yes I have one regret, I didn’t kill the piece of shit.” It was a political nightmare but with the residents of Chicago he’s revered as a hero.
                  During his suspension without pay Todd and his family would receive a yellow envelope, anonymously, every Friday in their newspaper that more than exceeded his normal paycheck. Needless to say his fellow boys in blue had something to do with that. Todd wasn't the only one in town that was proud of how he almost killed the child molester.
                  Todd hands him the manila folder and says as he follows him back to his office. "Not a whole lot."
                  "Any witnesses?" Brad wonders as he walks with the folder and a fresh cup of coffee back to his office.
                  "No one heard a thing. We did the usual. We talked to the neighbors around the house and no one heard a thing." Explains Todd as he comes to rest in the chair that faces the lead detective’s desk.
                  "What about prints? Any prints besides the couple that lived there?" Brad looks up and starts to open the folder.
                  "Nothing, we lifted some prints from Mr. Caruthers possessions upstairs and crossed them. No prints found besides the couples. No tools left behind that could have been used to break in. No shoe prints left in the yard. We didn’t expect to find those with the heat and no rain but we checked anyway. It's like they weren't even there. But that's not that out of the ordinary,” Todd crosses his legs and takes a sip of his coffee. “If the creep wore gloves and only gloves we wouldn't have got anything on this particular case, unless the lab finds something." Todd explains rocking back and forth. Brad glances over the report from Todd shaking his head as he sees pretty much what he thought he‘d see.
                  Brad shakes his head reaching for anything and asks. “Bye chance did you check for shoe prints in the kitchen, I remember the floor was sticky from her dropping her glass of tea…it‘s just a thought but could we find a print off of that?”
                  “I was the first to arrive and I seen the empty glass on the floor. So I brought in the ultraviolet light to examine the area,” Todd
