The Murder of Carmen Stern

Chapter 3: The Interview with Dion
“Dion, do you know it was your pistol that killed Carmen?”
“NO! I did not do it I swear. I was delivering diesel that day...”
“Calm down Dion we don’t believe you killed her. But it was your gun that was used. Why did you have a gun anyway?”
“I make deliveries for the Co-Op, everything from feed and fertilizer to diesel fuel. Sometimes these farmers pay in cash. I bought the gun for protection. I took lessons on how to handle it then got a permit to carry it. Sheriff Bull can verify that. When I found the pistol missing I immediately came to the office and reported it stolen.”
“Again calm down. Everything checks out.”
“I’ll take a lie detector test if you want. I had nothing to do with her death.”
“Let’s talk about your and Carmen’s relationship for a minute.”
“We didn’t have a relationship we had a business arrangement. I fucked her when Mr. Billy told me to and Carmen gave me a $100 every time. That’s all. I had no illusions about anything. I am in love with my fiancé and I needed money. That’s all it was, I swear.”
