Chapter 406: The storm asks for a monthly ticket) Code word to ask for the moon at four in the morni
While Kai and his group were fighting, on the other side, the fighting in Chicago became increasingly fierce.
Although the battle in Chicago was not bloody or even peaceful, it was not less dangerous. When Assistant State Attorney Peter Stone launched an investigation into the Tuttle Foundation, a battle surrounding the Tuttle Foundation began.
This political storm also began to take shape.
As soon as Peter Stone officially investigated the Tuttle Foundation, the state prosecutor put pressure on Peter Stone to stop the investigation on the grounds that the Tuttle Foundation was a religious foundation and a very well-known foundation in Illinois.
It is unreasonable and reckless behavior for a charitable foundation to initiate such an investigation without any pointing evidence, which will trigger protests from religious circles.
Religion has always been the bottom line of American society, and anything about religion needs to be done carefully and carefully. You must know that in the United States, religious industries do not need to pay taxes. In a sense, religion is a bit outside the law in the United States.
.
What's more, the Tuttle Foundation is a religious fund backed by the Catholic Church. This fund is dedicated to helping poor believers out of trouble, sponsors some young people who intend to become priests to complete theological courses, and also opens schools so that some poor children can
Get a good education and even provide scholarships.
In short, the Tuttle Foundation is not only backed by a big tree, but also has a pretty good reputation. It is definitely a target that prosecutors at all levels will avoid.!
But just when the state prosecutor's investigation of Peter Stone was suspended, a report document from the church appeared in the state prosecutor's office. Yes, the Catholic Church itself reported its own foundation, and they reported the tower
Corruption within the Tell Foundation!
According to this internal reporting document from the Archdiocese of Chicago, since 1981, more than millions of dollars in funds from the foundation have disappeared every year, and part of these funds came from donations from believers in the Archdiocese of Chicago.
.
Many people were caught off guard by the self-destruction of the church.
Then on the same day, Peter Stone found out that corruption within the Tuttle Foundation was extremely serious. Many funds disappeared without explanation, and a considerable amount of funds were transferred under various names. Can you believe it?
Does a school under the foundation need half a million dollars to paint the exterior walls? That is a school, not a skyscraper.
After obtaining evidence of corruption, Peter Stone began to go further and began to thoroughly investigate the fund flow of the foundation.
This makes more people nervous.
To put it bluntly, the Tuttle Foundation is just a cover for the Tuttle Church to conduct money and power transactions with the outside world. If the funds are investigated, many people will be implicated, so the next day, the investigation encountered obstacles.
, first the Illinois state court ruled that Peter Stone's investigation was illegal and released several suspects who were detained under Peter Stone's order on the grounds of insufficient evidence.
As a result, several suspects were brought back to the police station on other charges as soon as they walked out of the police station building.
Then the state police suddenly came to the Chicago Police Department to investigate and asked the Chicago police to transfer several people to them.
The Chicago police were still discussing how to deal with the state police's request. As a result, a police inspector in the police station handed over several suspects on his own initiative. This shocked the Chicago police. They did not expect that on their own territory, they would still
Someone did this kind of dirty trick.
The police inspector was immediately controlled, and the Chicago police immediately planned to recover the suspects. However, before the Chicago police could take action, news came again that the state police who had come to pick up the suspects had a car accident on Michigan Avenue.
Unfortunately, all the suspects were killed!
Naked murder and silence!
Such a blatant silence had not happened for many years. This made the Chicago police extremely angry. They brought several state troopers back to the police station and planned to open up the situation to them. As a result, before the interrogation started, the state troopers were very angry.
They took away several police officers forcefully, and they even clamored to sue the Chicago police. According to them, after their officers encountered a car accident, the Chicago police not only failed to provide help, but also prohibited them from going to the hospital. This is a disregard for human life.
.
All in all, it was just a quarrel. As for those suspects? Anyway, the state police didn't care much. Everyone was dead and everything was an accident. What else did they want?
At the same time, on Peter's side, the FBI suddenly intervened in the matter and forcibly took away and sealed the information that Peter had finally searched from the foundation.
At this point, it seems that the people who support Tuttle's church have won.
But in the afternoon, news suddenly came that the Chicago police had solved a serial murder case!
The perpetrator's name was Errol William Childress. The details of the case were made public in a short period of time, and a large number of physical evidence and corpses related to the missing persons were found in the suspect's home. By the time the media exposed it, the police had already gone from
More than 138 corpses were unearthed in the suspect's yard, the vast majority of which were the bones of women and children. After comparison and confirmation with the items found in the suspect's home related to the deceased, it is currently
So far, Chicago police have identified thirty of the dead.
The death time span of these deceased people is very long. The earliest deceased among the deceased who have been confirmed by the Chicago police was about 35 years ago. The suspect William Childress is currently only 41 years old. It is said that he started killing people when he was five years old.
, is a bit too far-fetched, so the police have reason to believe that William Childress's father, Billy Childress, is also a perverted murderer.
However, because when the police discovered Billy Childress, he had already been tortured and imprisoned by his son, William Childress, for fifteen years and had completely lost the ability to bear legal responsibility, so he was exempted.
Sue, but he will spend the rest of his life in the hospital. Even according to the doctor's diagnosis, it is unknown whether this older generation murderer can survive.
His facial features were sewn up by his son with needles and threads, his eyes and mouth have basically lost their original functions, and some organs in his body have even experienced varying degrees of atrophy and necrosis. According to the doctor, he is still alive now.
It's a miracle.
Of course, if the matter reaches this point, it can only be regarded as social news and will not affect the current political struggle in Chicago.
But the series of documents and video materials collected from William Childress's home are different. Those documents include some records of William Childress's interactions with many political and judicial figures, as well as the records of William Childress's interactions with many political and judicial figures.
Records of financial transactions with the Tuttle Foundation.
The most explosive one is the disciplinary relationship between William Childress and Illinois State Senator Edwin Tuttle. According to the video and audio materials found at the scene, Edwin Tuttle not only had an affair with William Childress
Dries was very familiar with it and gave William Childress a lot of help, such as helping him contact some people in the judicial field and helping him deal with some so-called disclosures.
At this time, the entire Chicago political scene exploded.
Edwin Tuttle is a veteran senator from Illinois. He once served as Chicago district attorney and state attorney, and then ran for governor. Although he failed to be elected, he became two senators in Chicago in the subsequent senatorial election.
One of them is an absolutely veteran politician, with connections throughout the Illinois judicial department.
Once this news broke, the world was shaken instantly.
Although Edwin Tuttle continued to deny that he had a relationship with William Childress, it was of no use. What was worse was that even if he could deny that he had a relationship with William Childress, he could not deny that he had a relationship with William Childress.
The relationship between Billy Lee Tuttle, whose sister happened to be William Childress's mother...
Taking advantage of this trend, Peter Stone began to focus on investigating several disappearance cases that were obviously problematic. One of them was the most typical case. This was a little girl named Mary Fontenot nineteen years ago. In 1990,
Disappeared when she was 10 years old. The Tuttle family once funded a kindergarten called Shepherd's Home, and Mary stayed there. In 1988, Shepherd's Home was accused of child molestation and was forced to close. Two years later, it was renamed the House of Light.
Road Academy reopened on Pelican Island, and Mary became a student again.
Mary's mother immediately called the police after discovering that her daughter was missing, but local Sheriff Ted Childress privately changed the police file, canceled the call, and asked the then investigator Steve Geracy not to continue investigating the case.
In the disappearance case, he claimed that the girl’s mother was a prostitute and took drugs, and that he knew the girl’s father and knew that the girl had gone away with him. Steve Gerasi later investigated and found that the girl’s mother was also missing, so he really gave up the investigation.
Then Steve Jerrysi got the recognition and recommendation of Ted Childress and started to rise up the ranks.
According to Peter Stone's research, Ted Childress and Billy Childress were cousins.
Then a series of officials and police officers were pulled out of office by this case, and for a time the entire Illinois political scene became chaotic.
…
But this had nothing to do with Kai. After cleaning up the scene and calling the Chicago police to come in, the matter had nothing to do with him. In fact, when things got to this point, many things were no longer under Kai's control.
In fact, now, the case has become less important. Once a public opinion storm forms, some interest groups will contribute to it. For example, state Senator Edwin Tuttle, most of the people who target him are actually not
In order to seek justice for those innocent victims, they ate more bloody buns and wanted to bring down Edwin Tuttle.
After all, the political cake is always only so big. If Edwin Tuttle eats it, others will have to eat less, or even not eat at all. In the past, if Edwin Tuttle had no flaws, everything would be fine, but now Edwin Tuttle
Since you have exposed such a big flaw, naturally many people want to pounce on him, knock down Edwin Tuttle, and share his cake.
The adult world is very cruel.
Furthermore, Kay and Matthew are too conspicuous in this case. If they continue to stay, they will definitely become targets. After all, Edwin Tuttle is not the only person affected by this case.
Although this time the church took the initiative to take the blame, their goals were much smaller, but if they continued to jump, they would feel uncomfortable. This is also the reason why Kaihui found the church and forced them to trade. The church is large,
Even if you stand up and attract fire, there is no big problem. Even if those whose interests have been harmed want to retaliate, what can they do to the church? At most, it will make the church disgusted, but so what?
The church has been standing for so many years, but what kind of trouble has it not experienced? Isn’t it still the largest religion in the world?
It's just difficult for Deputy Director Cooper. On the one hand, he needs to stabilize his position and deal with the pressure from all parties. On the other hand, he must not offend all parties too much, which will affect his ascending to the position of director. The mental energy required in this process is not that of ordinary police officers handling cases.
Comparable.
But what can I say, since Cooper wants to ascend to the position of director, he must bear some pressure.
"So...you haven't been able to deal with Tapia yet?" Kai had a free day today, so he stayed in the police office and chatted with a group of colleagues. Marcus and Mike happened to be there too, watching them look dejected.
The way he looked, he was probably scolded by Teresa again.
"Don't mention it. Over the past few days, that bastard has been washed away in a golden basin. He is as honest as a high school nerd. He hasn't even found a lady. We really have nothing to do." Marcus was almost obsessed with this case.
It went crazy, and as time went by, the patience of the police department and DEA was being worn away little by little. The reason why Marcus took over this case was because he didn't want his sister to take risks.
But now there is no progress in the case. The DEA and the police department cannot wait indefinitely. They hope to follow the original plan and let Marcus's sister Sydney take the initiative to attract Tapia's attention.
So now Marcus is anxious and angry every day, but there is no good way.
The same is true for Mike, after all...this guy is having an affair with Sydney, and Marcus, the idiot, doesn't even realize it...
"We thought about some... not very formal methods, but the guy was too cautious, leaving us with no chance." Mike took his cell phone and texted Sydney while complaining to Kay.
"Hey! Nigga, can you stop holding a cell phone all day like a high school student? Can't you just concentrate on the case?" Marcus felt very unhappy when he saw that Mike was still playing with his cell phone.
"Oh my god, what's wrong with people nowadays? They hold their cell phones all day long without even raising their heads. Why aren't they so serious about studying?"
Mike silently exited the chat, and then put away his phone with a guilty conscience. It is a very dangerous thing to flirt with his sister in front of a sister-in-law. This is also the reason why Mike has not confessed to Marcus until now, although
Sydney had always hoped that Mike would take the initiative to tell Marcus... After all, she was in love, not having an affair, so why should she be so secretive?
Marcus complained a few more times, and finally looked at Kai and hesitated.
"What? Do you want to confess to me like you did to Mike? First of all, let me declare that I am not a guy. Secondly, even if I were, you can't be my type. You are too ugly." Kai saw Marcus's face
Expression, jokingly said. If you stay with black people, if you are too serious, it will be very unpleasant. Especially these two people.
"Hey! I told you not to joke about this, okay?"
The last time Marcus and Mike made a mistake at the electronics store has become the biggest joke in the detective bureau. Every day someone would make fun of their ambiguous relationship and sexual orientation, which made Marcus so angry that he finally imposed a rule.
Don't joke about this in the future.
"Okay, okay." Kai raised his hand to show that he was wrong. "If it's not a confession, then what on earth are you going to say?"
Marcus gritted his teeth and finally said: "I want you to help us!"
Mike raised his head and looked at Marcus in surprise. Although Marcus was small and thin, this guy had a very strong self-esteem. He wanted to make him submissive, unless it was his wife. And among the police, taking the initiative to ask
It is absolutely embarrassing for others to intervene in the case that you are responsible for. It is an admission that you are not good enough.
